Joerg> Or is there a way to circumvent [capturing groups limitation]?
Sure, submit a patch to SourceForge that removes the restriction.
I've never come anywhere close to creating regular expressions that need to
capture 100 groups even though I generate regular expressions from a
higher-level representation. I suspect few will have hit that limit.
Perhaps explain what motivates you to want to capture that many groups.
Other people may be able to suggest alternatives. And remember:
Some people, when confronted with a problem, think "I know, I'll use
regular expressions." Now they have two problems. --Jamie Zawinski
