Probably for the kind of work they are doing avoid regex? Or at least the very complicated modern regex (simple autonoma that you can compile in advance might be ok)
- txcwpalpha 7y agoIf you're trying to do pattern matching, is there actually a widely used alternative to regex? The more I can avoid using regex for mission-critical things, the happier I will be, but I'm really not aware of anything better for this type of application.
