Another place to look is a set of routines written by Henry Spencer at
the University of Totonto.  They match UNIX-style regular expressions,
and all he asks is that you don't misrepresent where you got the code.
None of the GNU political baggage.  They came across comp.sources.unix
some time ago--they should be available for FTP from uunet or other
archive sites.
