I'm not often in regex world, so somebody probably phrased a better version of this observation already.... but I joked with my friend that regex is an example of the signal to noise ratio being too -high-.
And then that joke made me think that there ought to be a higher-level language that compiles to regex. And it actually seemed like a sane enough idea that I thought maybe somebody had already invented such a thing. Compile is probably too strong a word. Code generator is probably closer. Anybody know of anything like that? B -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
