Hi,

a small but interesting question:
when will BETA support Perl Regular Expressions?
Even PHP now supports these Perl REGEX instead of the PHP standard POSIX
REGEX, which is also used in BETA.
And what about callPerl? Would be great to have this one! There are
compilers for Perl out there and it's much too hard to use BETA (POSIX)
REGEX instead of using the very intuitive and simple Perl REGEX functions.

Regards,
Sascha Kimmel
