Hi PRegEx users,

PRegEx 2.0 (final - rev 167) for Director 11 is finally here. Sorry
for repeated delays, and THANKS to the beta testers.

http://openxtras.org/pregex/

The Read Me is linked from that page. That Read Me has a "What's New
in 2.0" section, comparing version 2.0 to 1.0. PLEASE READ IT BEFORE
YOU CONVERT YOUR PROJECT. ESPECIALLY IF YOU USE IT TO READ OR WRITE
FILES!

Quality level: We consider this build fully ready for production use
on Mac and Windows.

This build has had these changes as compared to Beta 1:

- HUGE slowdown when making many small replacements has been fixed
(thanks to Pierre Rossel)

- WriteFileToString NO LONGER uses 2nd element of String Buffer list
as "length limit"
(However, for backward compatibility, the deprecated WriteEntireFile
function still does)
(thanks to Pierre Rossel)

- Could not write file names longer than 31 characters
(thanks to Sean Wilson)

- Fixed crash/leak in ListToSPListSym/SetAProp (from 1.0 era)
(thanks to Karl Young)

- Removed PRegEx_SearchBegin/PRegEx_SearchContinue from the API

- Enabled compiler optimization on Windows build

- Updated to latest PCRE (7.8)

- Test suites now include non-ASCII characters for all functions

Enjoy,

-c
