Allow Perl Compatible Regex #145

Open hugofragata opened 4 years ago

hugofragata commented 4 years ago

This is a feature request that includes similar issues such as #131.

In addition to solving the lack of case insensitive regex, allowing Perl Compatible Regex (PCRE) also adds more features, e.g. negative lookahead and single or multi line mode. PCRE features can be consulted here.

I'll submit a PR to address this.

146 encountered test failures. This is probably still worth pursuing.
