Hi

So, I'm going to plough my way through the tickets (and the manual), and see if they are feasible to continue, or have any point at all.

PCRE - Perl compatible regluar expressions - was updated to version 2 in 2010. Who noticed? Were you unhappy with version one (before 2010). Does PCRE do the job it needs to, and if so is there any need / point to upgrade to 2.

How much extra work will be needed to integrate PCRE2? Or could it be not compiled in, but used as a dll if required, with an include to wrap it.

My take, I'm fine with PCRE1, as I've possibly only used it once, and I tend to write my own search functions.

Thoughts please. I'll give you 5 days to give me a reason not to mark it completed.

Cheers, Chris
