require "@RX@"

--[[ TODO -------------------------------------------------------------------
 - describe string.{cflags,eflags}
 - gsub does not handle eflags
--]] ------------------------------------------------------------------------

--[[ DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------

This file replaces the default string library routines "find", "gsub",
"gmatch" with mostly similiarly behaving equivalents with regular
expression syntax patterns.

The original functions are stored in the "string.orig" table.

Additional methods:

  string.study([<boolean>])

    This function causes the string replacement functions to store the
    regular expression if the argument is empty or "true". The default
    compile and execution flags cannot be changed then, however.

    Supplying "false" as argument clears the regular expression store.

  string.cflags(...)

  string.eflags(...)
