[oak perl] more regular.expressions

[Jon Seidel, CMC]

I really enjoyed Elijah's presentation yesterday -- well organized and
exampled. I was intrigued by the reference to RE's being around in
mathematics before unix commandeered them so I looked around the web
briefly. I found these two tidbits;

1) The document www2.cs.utep.edu/~cs3350/CS3350Lecture2.ppt is part of a
CompSci course, and discusses RE's in mathematics. Since I'm not a math or
CS major, it's a little dense, but interesting nonetheless.

2) One of the unix dictionaries gives the following definition:
    GREP Global Regular Expression Print
which I hadn't seen before.
