Hmm. Not sure how I missed that. And, I also inquired about developing a "core featre" instead of a library -- implying disparity where in retrospect there doesn't appear to be any.<br><br>That's too bad, but thanks for the helpful response!<br>

</div></div>This is probably the right list to ask.<br>
<br>
I don't know much about the topic, a a quick Google search turned up:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://hackage.haskell.org/package/regex-pderiv" target="_blank">http://hackage.haskell.org/package/regex-pderiv</a><br>
<br>
which has the right keywords.<br>
<br>
More discussion on related (or not!) here:<br>
