Small world indeed :) that's really old code, I don't remember much about it :)



Regex code was probably based on the standard Erlang regex module that Robert Virding wrote. Simplified by skipping the regex syntax and writing the AST directly (like in scsh.)


Ha, great, another name to google :p

ps: always skip the parsing.


I had some fun Haskelling Thompson's algorithm too: https://github.com/darius/sketchbook/blob/master/regex/nfave... -- though I think Haskell's at a disadvantage for this one.
