;;; Commentary:

;; This is another implementation of sexp-form regular expressions.
;; It was unfortunately written without being aware of the Sregex
;; package coming with Emacs, but as things stand, Rx completely
;; covers all regexp features, which Sregex doesn't, doesn't suffer
;; from the bugs mentioned in the commentary section of Sregex, and
;; uses a nicer syntax (IMHO, of course :-).

;; This significantly extended version of the original, is almost
;; compatible with Sregex.  The only incompatibility I (fx) know of is
;; that the `repeat' form can't have multiple regexp args.

;; Now alternative forms are provided for a degree of compatibility
;; with Olin Shivers' attempted definitive SRE notation.  SRE forms
;; not catered for include: dsm, uncase, w/case, w/nocase, ,@<exp>,
;; ,<exp>, (word ...), word+, posix-string, and character class forms.
;; Some forms are inconsistent with SRE, either for historical reasons
;; or because of the implementation -- simple translation into Emacs
;; regexp strings.  These include: any, word.  Also, case-sensitivity
;; and greediness are controlled by variables external to the regexp,
;; and you need to feed the forms to the `posix-' functions to get
;; SRE's POSIX semantics.  There are probably more difficulties.

;; Rx translates a sexp notation for regular expressions into the
;; usual string notation.  The translation can be done at compile-time
;; by using the `rx' macro.  The `regexp' and `literal' forms accept
;; non-constant expressions, in which case `rx' will translate to a
;; `concat' expression.  Translation can be done fully at run time by
;; calling function `rx-to-string'.  See the documentation of `rx' for
;; a complete description of the sexp notation.
;;
;; Some examples of string regexps and their sexp counterparts:
;;
;; "^[a-z]*"
;; (rx line-start (0+ (in "a-z")))
;;
;; "\n[^ \t]"
;; (rx ?\n (not (in " \t")))
;;
;; "\\*\\*\\* EOOH \\*\\*\\*\n"
;; (rx "*** EOOH ***\n")
;;
;; "\\<\\(catch\\|finally\\)\\>[^_]"
;; (rx word-start (submatch (or "catch" "finally")) word-end
;;     (not (in ?_)))
;;
;; "[ \t\n]*:\\($\\|[^:]+\\)"
;; (rx (* (in " \t\n")) ":"
;;     (submatch (or line-end (+ (not (in ?:))))))
;;
;; "^content-transfer-encoding:\\(?:\n?[\t ]\\)*quoted-printable\\(?:\n?[\t ]\\)*"
;; (rx line-start
;;     "content-transfer-encoding:"
;;     (* (? ?\n) (in " \t"))
;;     "quoted-printable"
;;     (* (? ?\n) (in " \t")))
;;
;; (concat "^\\(?:" something-else "\\)")
;; (rx line-start (regexp something-else))
;;
;; (regexp-opt '(STRING1 STRING2 ...))
;; (rx (or STRING1 STRING2 ...)), or in other words, `or' automatically
;; calls `regexp-opt' as needed.
;;
;; "^;;\\s-*\n\\|^\n"

This function may return false negatives, but it will not

situations where an efficiency shortcut can be taken only if a

more cases of atomic regexps.  Presently, this function
detects the following categories of atomic regexp;

  a group or shy group:  \\(...\\)

On the other hand, false negatives will be returned for

  "Build a `pcase' pattern matching `rx' REGEXPS in sexp form.
The REGEXPS are interpreted as in `rx'.  The pattern matches any
string that is a match for the regular expression so constructed,
as if by `string-match'.

In addition to the usual `rx' constructs, REGEXPS can contain the
following constructs:

  (let REF SEXP...)  creates a new explicitly named reference to
                     a submatch that matches regular expressions
                     SEXP, and binds the match to REF.
  (backref REF)      creates a backreference to the submatch
                     introduced by a previous (let REF ...)
                     construct.  REF can be the same symbol
                     in the first argument of the corresponding
                     (let REF ...) construct, or it can be a
                     submatch number.  It matches the referenced
                     submatch.

The REFs are associated with explicitly named submatches starting
from 1.  Multiple occurrences of the same REF refer to the same
submatch.

If a case matches, the match data is modified as usual so you can
use it in the case body, but you still have to pass the correct
string as argument to `match-string'."
