I see that in the comments section you propose to remove both regex modules from the std lib? That really worries me and is exactly what I meant when I asked for some restraint when removing libraries from the std lib. I know that there are better alternatives to regexes like pegs but for quick little scripts they are just so convenient that I end up using them relatively frequently.
Can we just bring a pure nim regression library (i.e. no dependency such as nim-regex) into the std lib instead, even if it has some limitations?
