Just thought I would send a copy of this for anyone interested in the pregex xtra. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------ Dear subscribers to the PRegEx mailing list --
First, thanks for using PRegEx. I promised that this list would be low-traffic and it has been -- There haven't been any postings because the list has been broken! Anyway, today Brad Hile sent a request for archives, and so I thought I'd fix the list and answer everyone -- there have been no messages yet. This is the first. PRegEx News update: 1) A few bugs have come in during the year since PRegEx was released. These are detailed, along with workarounds and/or proposed fixes, at: http://openxtras.org/pregex/issues/ 2) Ravi, one of the co-authors, reports that he is working on making PregEx shockwave-safe. If anyone needs this sooner rather than later, I'm sure he'd welcome contributions, especially financial ones. :-) 3) Another planned piece of work is to port to the later PRegEx library. 4) Probably we'll do a OS X update when Director 9 comes out. All of these planned changes are somewhat far off -- probably in the next year, but no guarantees. --------- Finally, I would encourage any of you who are using PRegEx actively and have any ideas or success stories, to post them to the list; and any of you with questions to post those, too.
