But using regexp will always be slower too. I do use regexp in other 
languages, such as:

\b(f|ph)[ ]*[ucs][ ]*[cu][ ]*[k<]\b
and
\bm+(o+|u+|0+)t+h+(a+|e+|3+)(r+|)[\s]*(p+l+|p+h+|p+|f+|h+|)(a+|u+|o+|0+)(c+k
+|w+k+|r+k+|k+|c+)[\w]*

Like i said, the code i gave to explain the ex.err has been running for years, 
and little oddities are creeping up, and it's a tangle of if-then since we have 
no clean goto, and i am rewriting it. Until i am done, the old code is called. 
even if we had a goto, it wouldn't help the ex.err reporting that error occurred
on that line, as that line did no subscripting.
