If you do that please please follow the AST/ksh syntax (e.g. it wouldn't
be good to have several variants of the same syntax), e.g. "~(" as
prefix to indicate alternative pattern method, "<name>" as name of the
method (currently supported by libast&&ksh93 are AFAIK "F"/"G"/"E" for
fgrep/grep/egrep-like pattern (which support modifers "i" for
case-insensitive matching and "l" and "r" for left and right anchors),
"S" for shell pattern, "K" for korn shell pattern (both are the same),
"P" for perl regular expressions and AFAIK there are a few undocumented
methods, too ("A" is reversed for AmigaOS-like pattern)) and a closing
")" before the pattern itself.
