[Omake] String manipulation

[Aleksey Nogin]

Jared,

Do you know about the match function? See 
http://omake.metaprl.org/omake-language.html#section:match and 
http://omake.metaprl.org/omake-base.html#function:match

This should give you most of the regexp-based matching and substitution 
(except no easy support for case-insensitive matching).
