4.1 CL-Portable Perl-compatible Regular Expressions—CL-PPCRE
“Portable Perl-compatible regular expressions for Common Lisp”
CL-PPCRE is a portable regular expression library for Common Lisp which has the
following features:
- It is compatible with Perl (especially when used in conjunction with
cl-interpol, to allow compatible parsing of regexp strings).
- It is pretty fast.
- It is portable between ANSI-compliant Common Lisp implementations.
- It is thread-safe.
- In addition to specifying regular expressions as strings like in Perl you can
also use S-expressions.
- It comes with a BSD-style license so you can basically do with it whatever
you want.
