I think the usefulness of regular expressions is obvious.

As well, lex-type language grammars are based on reg. exp.
It is much easier to be able to reuse those existing, proven,
grammars in Mercury code when we have regex
available.  

Please consider making them a part of Mercury's standard
library else many will end up duplicating this same work.



Thanks,

Ann Tecklenburg
