pcretest helps one to test whether or not they're on track with their
regex's (and Perl-compatible is the type of regex used here). It's
been awhile since I used it, but I believe you type a string you're
looking for and then enter the regex and it will tell you if it matches.

Incidentally, your opening message wasn't terribly clear -- I skipped
it 'cuz I wasn't sure what it meant.
