According to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Dan Sugalski):
>*) extract substring
Rather than that, wouldn't you prefer to make "substring of target
string" the actual target of all these?
>*) exact string compare
>*) find string in string
>*) find first character of class X in string
>*) find first character not of class X in string
>*) find boundary between X and not-X
>*) Find boundary defined by arbitrary code (mainly for word breaks)
Also, I imagine you'll want a backwards/forwards option on some of
them, to support the p6 equivalent of /a.*b/.
