Regex tag? #26

Closed richard-lyman closed 12 years ago

richard-lyman commented 12 years ago

Is there a high probability of a built-in tag for regex?

regex "something"

isn't that much shorter than

tld.company/regex "something"

I'm just curious.

The lack of portability for regexes would limit the utility of this, I think.
