Has anyone ever come across a regex library for Autolisp? Call me crazy but I am thinking about writing one. Do you think it would be worth while? Would you like to help?

regex = regular expression

Isn't WCMATCH a regex?

Yes but very limited. I want to create a library with more functionality. Not on the order of Perl of couse, but something like that.

Here is some of what Perl can do:
