Hello everyone,

I have taken the role of review manager of the std.regex
replacement by
Dmitry Olshansky. The review period begins now 2011-10-8 and will
end on
2011-10-23 at midnight UTC. A voting thread to include into Phobos
will
be held after review assuming such is appropriate. The Voting
period is
one week.

Please note that you can try FRed as part of Phobos (Code) or by
itself
(Package of FReD) which includes docs.

What's the difference between Regex and RegEx? I can see RegEx in the
documentation but I cannot find its definition in the docs.


RegEx is a template parameter (it's that usual abstract 'T'), that in
the end deduced as StaticRegex!Char or Regex!Char where Char is
char/wchar/dchar.

I don't think the documentation should refer to RegEx if it's not
defined in the docs.

Yes, I think I see the typo now, thanks.

The second parameter type of the match function (and a couple of other
functions) is RegEx, is that possible to fix as well?


No, that's what I tried to point out but failed obviously.
The thing is that it is a templated parameter and due to constraint it could be either StaticRegex!Char or Regex!Char. They represent pattern compiled as machine code or bytecode respectively for character width of Char. All of the 6 versions of compiled patterns in the end do not have a common type nor one is technically possible (w/o some quite bad performance trade offs).
