## A regular expression library for Nim using PCRE to do the hard work. ## A regular expression library for Nim using PCRE to do the hard work.
## ##
## Why?
## ----
##
## The `re.nim <http://nim-lang.org/re.html>`__ module that
## `Nim <http://nim-lang.org/>`__ provides in its standard library is
## inadequate:
##
## - It provides only a limited number of captures, while the underling
## library (PCRE) allows an unlimited number.
##
## - Instead of having one proc that returns both the bounds and
## substring, it has one for the bounds and another for the substring.
##
## - If the splitting regex is empty (``""``), then it returns the input
## string instead of following `Perl <https://ideone.com/dDMjmz>`__,
## `Javascript <http://jsfiddle.net/xtcbxurg/>`__, and
## `Java <https://ideone.com/hYJuJ5>`__'s precedent of returning a list
## of each character (``"123".split(re"") == @["1", "2", "3"]``).
