Aloha all,

I'm able to use regular expressions in LISP strings fairly regularly 
for simple situations.  I'd like to get better at this, so that it is 
easier for me to conceptualize possible solutions to more complex 
problems.   Can anyone offer either print or on-line references that 
might help me think about regular expressions in LISP strings more 
effectively?  I need something more than a concise description of each 
character, something that will help me find the right frame of mind (so 
to speak).

All the best,
Tom
