For such simple expressions you can use 'beheading': remove the current
match with substr() and run regrepr again. That does not work for some
regexps which depend on e.g. word boundaries, though.
Alternatively you can modify the source code.

Hello,
Is there any way I can use the gregexpr functions (or a different function)
in a manner that will also return overlapping (i.e. non disjoint) regular
expressions?
For instance, when running gregexpr("AAA","AAAAAA"), I get two matches, one
at position 1 and one at position 4. I'd like to receive 4 matches at
positions 1, 2, 3 and 4.
Thanks,
