-;;; Commentary:
-
-;; This package allows you to write regular expressions using a
-;; totally new, Lisp-like syntax.
-
-;; A "symbolic regular expression" (sregex for short) is a Lisp form
-;; that, when evaluated, produces the string form of the specified
-;; regular expression. Here's a simple example:
-
-;; (sregexq (or "Bob" "Robert")) => "Bob\\|Robert"
-
-;; As you can see, an sregex is specified by placing one or more
-;; special clauses in a call to `sregexq'. The clause in this case is
-;; the `or' of two strings (not to be confused with the Lisp function
-;; `or'). The list of allowable clauses appears below.
-
-;; With sregex, it is never necessary to "escape" magic characters
-;; that are meant to be taken literally; that happens automatically.
-;; For example:
-
-;; (sregexq "M*A*S*H") => "M\\*A\\*S\\*H"
-
-;; It is also unnecessary to "group" parts of the expression together
-;; to overcome operator precedence; that also happens automatically.
-;; For example:
-
-;; (sregexq (opt (or "Bob" "Robert"))) => "\\(?:Bob\\|Robert\\)?"
-
-;; It *is* possible to group parts of the expression in order to refer
-;; to them with numbered backreferences:
-
-;; (sregexq (group (or "Go" "Run"))
-;; ", Spot, "
-;; (backref 1)) => "\\(Go\\|Run\\), Spot, \\1"
-
-;; `sregexq' is a macro. Each time it is used, it constructs a simple
-;; Lisp expression that then invokes a moderately complex engine to
-;; interpret the sregex and render the string form. Because of this,
-;; I don't recommend sprinkling calls to `sregexq' throughout your
-;; code, the way one normally does with string regexes (which are
-;; cheap to evaluate). Instead, it's wiser to precompute the regexes
-;; you need wherever possible instead of repeatedly constructing the
-;; same ones over and over. Example:
-
-;; (let ((field-regex (sregexq (opt "resent-")
-;; (or "to" "cc" "bcc"))))
-;; ...
-;; (while ...
-;; ...
-;; (re-search-forward field-regex ...)
-;; ...))
-
-;; The arguments to `sregexq' are automatically quoted, but the
-;; flipside of this is that it is not straightforward to include
-;; computed (i.e., non-constant) values in `sregexq' expressions. So
-;; `sregex' is a function that is like `sregexq' but which does not
-;; automatically quote its values. Literal sregex clauses must be
-;; explicitly quoted like so:
-
-;; (sregex '(or "Bob" "Robert")) => "Bob\\|Robert"
-
-;; but computed clauses can be included easily, allowing for the reuse
-;; of common clauses:
-
-;; (let ((dotstar '(0+ any))
-;; (whitespace '(1+ (syntax ?-)))
-;; (digits '(1+ (char (?0 . ?9)))))
-;; (sregex 'bol dotstar ":" whitespace digits)) => "^.*:\\s-+[0-9]+"
-
-;; To use this package in a Lisp program, simply (require 'sregex).
-
-;; Here are the clauses allowed in an `sregex' or `sregexq'
-;; expression:
-
-;; - a string
-;; This stands for the literal string. If it contains
-;; metacharacters, they will be escaped in the resulting regex
-;; (using `regexp-quote').
-
-;; - the symbol `any'
-;; This stands for ".", a regex matching any character except
-;; newline.
-
-;; - the symbol `bol'
-;; Stands for "^", matching the empty string at the beginning of a line
-
-;; - the symbol `eol'
-;; Stands for "$", matching the empty string at the end of a line
-
-;; - (group CLAUSE ...)
-;; Groups the given CLAUSEs using "\\(" and "\\)".
-
-;; - (sequence CLAUSE ...)
-
-;; Groups the given CLAUSEs; may or may not use "\\(?:" and "\\)".
-;; Clauses grouped by `sequence' do not count for purposes of
-;; numbering backreferences. Use `sequence' in situations like
-;; this:
-
-;; (sregexq (or "dog" "cat"
-;; (sequence (opt "sea ") "monkey")))
-;; => "dog\\|cat\\|\\(?:sea \\)?monkey"
-
-;; where a single `or' alternate needs to contain multiple
-;; subclauses.
-
-;; - (backref N)
-;; Matches the same string previously matched by the Nth "group" in
-;; the same sregex. N is a positive integer.
-
-;; - (or CLAUSE ...)
-;; Matches any one of the CLAUSEs by separating them with "\\|".
-
-;; - (0+ CLAUSE ...)
-;; Concatenates the given CLAUSEs and matches zero or more
-;; occurrences by appending "*".
-
-;; - (1+ CLAUSE ...)
-;; Concatenates the given CLAUSEs and matches one or more
-;; occurrences by appending "+".
-
-;; - (opt CLAUSE ...)
-;; Concatenates the given CLAUSEs and matches zero or one occurrence
-;; by appending "?".
-
-;; - (repeat MIN MAX CLAUSE ...)
-;; Concatenates the given CLAUSEs and constructs a regex matching at
-;; least MIN occurrences and at most MAX occurrences. MIN must be a
-;; non-negative integer. MAX must be a non-negative integer greater
-;; than or equal to MIN; or MAX can be nil to mean "infinity."
-
-;; - (char CHAR-CLAUSE ...)
-;; Creates a "character class" matching one character from the given
-;; set. See below for how to construct a CHAR-CLAUSE.
-
-;; - (not-char CHAR-CLAUSE ...)
-;; Creates a "character class" matching any one character not in the
-;; given set. See below for how to construct a CHAR-CLAUSE.
-
-;; - the symbol `bot'
-;; Stands for "\\`", matching the empty string at the beginning of
-;; text (beginning of a string or of a buffer).
-
-;; - the symbol `eot'
-;; Stands for "\\'", matching the empty string at the end of text.
-
-;; - the symbol `point'
-;; Stands for "\\=", matching the empty string at point.
-
-;; - the symbol `word-boundary'
-;; Stands for "\\b", matching the empty string at the beginning or
-;; end of a word.
-
-;; - the symbol `not-word-boundary'
-;; Stands for "\\B", matching the empty string not at the beginning
-;; or end of a word.
-
-;; - the symbol `bow'
-;; Stands for "\\<", matching the empty string at the beginning of a
-;; word.
-
-;; - the symbol `eow'
-;; Stands for "\\>", matching the empty string at the end of a word.
-
-;; - the symbol `wordchar'
-;; Stands for the regex "\\w", matching a word-constituent character
-;; (as determined by the current syntax table)
-
-;; - the symbol `not-wordchar'
-;; Stands for the regex "\\W", matching a non-word-constituent
-;; character.
-
-;; - (syntax CODE)
-;; Stands for the regex "\\sCODE", where CODE is a syntax table code
-;; (a single character). Matches any character with the requested
-;; syntax.
-
-;; - (not-syntax CODE)
-;; Stands for the regex "\\SCODE", where CODE is a syntax table code
-;; (a single character). Matches any character without the
-;; requested syntax.
-
-;; - (regex REGEX)
-;; This is a "trapdoor" for including ordinary regular expression
-;; strings in the result. Some regular expressions are clearer when
-;; written the old way: "[a-z]" vs. (sregexq (char (?a . ?z))), for
-;; instance.
-
-;; Each CHAR-CLAUSE that is passed to (char ...) and (not-char ...)
-;; has one of the following forms:
-
-;; - a character
-;; Adds that character to the set.
-
-;; - a string
-;; Adds all the characters in the string to the set.
-
-;; - A pair (MIN . MAX)
-;; Where MIN and MAX are characters, adds the range of characters
-;; from MIN through MAX to the set.
-
-;;; To do:
-
-;; An earlier version of this package could optionally translate the
-;; symbolic regex into other languages' syntaxes, e.g. Perl. For
-;; instance, with Perl syntax selected, (sregexq (or "ab" "cd")) would
-;; yield "ab|cd" instead of "ab\\|cd". It might be useful to restore
-;; such a facility.
-
-;; - handle multibyte chars in sregex--char-aux
-;; - add support for character classes ([:blank:], ...)
-;; - add support for non-greedy operators *? and +?
-;; - bug: (sregexq (opt (opt ?a))) returns "a??" which is a non-greedy "a?"
