regex-posix: POSIX Backend for "Text.Regex" (regex-base)

[ bsd3, library, text ] [ Propose Tags ] [ Report a vulnerability ]

The POSIX regex backend for regex-base.

The main appeal of this backend is that it's very lightweight due to its reliance on the ubiquitous POSIX.2 regex facility that is provided by the standard C library on most POSIX platforms.

See also https://wiki.haskell.org/Regular_expressions for more information.
