I just downloaded a current  version of SPFlist  (was running 4.3, current is 
6.1)
and found out is supports regular expressions now.   http://spflite.co.nr/

I don't know what ISPF's implementation will be like, but for SPFLite
you use FIND R'regular expression'.   

So I can play with this now.  :-)
