This is not completely new. We have a similar problem for example with TeX's math $...$ and with PostScript's strings (...(...)..). > Or maybe a modifier on the string syntax? My preference would be to think about it as a "multi-mode" case, and hence make it possible to specify a different syntax-table to use within the regexp. I think of it along the lines of a new syntax-class, applied to the "/" char, which would change the syntax-table for the subsequent text. Stefan
