# regular expression test set
# Lines are at least three fields, separated by one or more tabs. "" stands
# for an empty field. First field is an RE. Second field is flags. If
# C flag given, regcomp() is expected to fail, and the third field is the
# error name (minus the leading REG_).
#
# Otherwise it is expected to succeed, and the third field is the string to
# try matching it against. If there is no fourth field, the match is
# expected to fail. If there is a fourth field, it is the substring that
# the RE is expected to match. If there is a fifth field, it is a comma-
# separated list of what the subexpressions should match, with - indicating
# no match for that one. In both the fourth and fifth fields, a (sub)field
# starting with @ indicates that the (sub)expression is expected to match
# a null string followed by the stuff after the @; this provides a way to
# test where null strings match. The character `N' in REs and strings
# is newline, `S' is space, `T' is tab, `Z' is NUL.
#
# The full list of flags:
# - placeholder, does nothing
# b RE is a BRE, not an ERE
# & try it as both an ERE and a BRE
# C regcomp() error expected, third field is error name
# i REG_ICASE
# m ("mundane") REG_NOSPEC
# s REG_NOSUB (not really testable)
# n REG_NEWLINE
# ^ REG_NOTBOL
# $ REG_NOTEOL
# # REG_STARTEND (see below)
# p REG_PEND
#
# For REG_STARTEND, the start/end offsets are those of the substring
# enclosed in ().
