I also have a txt2html.regexps file, the first version of which I got
back in May 2005 from 9Val. At least the, and for the newer version I
have, the idea was to show some text in an "HTML like" way (Italics, Bold,
Underlines, etc.). Just see the name of the file :)

Now, if some regexp guru has been able to add to it so it can do what
you say, good. But not for me.

Thank you but please don't send it. I don't have the slightest intention
of 'wasting' a single minute of my life trying to understand the most
complicated, awkward and weird expressions I have seen. I wonder why
they are called "regular". ;-)
