Package libboost_regex1.46.1: Information

Regular expressions are a form of pattern-matching that are often used
in text processing; many users will be familiar with the Unix utilities
grep, sed and awk, and the programming language perl, each of which make
extensive use of regular expressions. Traditionally C++ users have been
limited to the POSIX C API's for manipulating regular expressions, and
while regex++ does provide these API's, they do not represent the best
way to use the library. For example regex++ can cope with wide character
strings, or search and replace operations (in a manner analogous to
either sed or perl), something that traditional C libraries can not do.
