Glad to see that come up in this thread. It was the first clearly explained regex engine for me in _Software Solutions in C_ (Schumacher D., Academic Press, 1994). I still have a copy and the original disk (and disk image). If anyone is interested I could scan that chapter tonight.

I looked all over for a copy. I'd love a scan. Is the disk 3.5 or 5.25?
