Description

libpatterns is a small, embeddable C library which gives your program a pretty decent regular expression engine. You can think of it as PCRE on a diet.

This library is essentially just a redistribution of the code from patterns(7) from OpenBSD's httpd(8), which in turn is based on the pattern-matching code from the Lua language.

Install

From pkgsrc-wip (no binary package):

cd /usr/pkgsrc/wip/libpatterns && make install clean
