I'm not a regex user, so I really don't care about wich one you use. I simply would prefer the one that produces a smaller interpreter.
PCRE is about 100k, while eFTE regex is about 13k.
Correction. I am informed that PCRE is 171k. I am working with the aforementioned CoJaBo on a cross-platform external PCRE library (dll wrapper), so you can use PCRE with 4.0 no matter what.
