  });

This provides a new type, currently known as tag:rjbs.manxome.org,2008-10-04:rx/pcre/str, which checks strings against the Perl-compatible regular expression library. Note! This uses PCRE, not Perl's regular expressions. There are differences, but very few.

Schema definitions must have a regex parameter, which provides the regular expression as a string. They may also have a flags parameter, which provides regular expression flags to be passed to the (?i-i) style flag modifier.
