There is an interesting discussion about the use of PEGs for pattern matching in the following article: http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/%7Eroberto/docs/peg.pdf There is also a transformation to convert regular expressions and some regex extensions into PEGs. The following two articles discuss this transformation: Converting regexes to Parsing Expression Grammars, Oikawa et al., 2010. >From Regular Expressions to PEGs, Medeiros et al., 2011 (to appear).
