Remarks
For example, regular expression "^user"
only matches a string beginning with
"user", not "Auser".
For example, regular expression "user$"
only matches a string ending with "user",
not "userA".
For example, ".l" can match "vlan" or
"mpls".
For example, "zo*" can match "z" and
"zoo"; (zo)* can match "zo" and "zozo".
For example, "zo+" can match "zo" and
"zoo", but not "z".
For example, "def|int" can only match a
character string containing "def" or "int".
For example, "a_b" can match "a b" or
"a(b"; "_ab" can only match a line
starting with "ab"; "ab_" can only match a
line ending with "ab".
For example, "1-9" means numbers from
1 to 9 (inclusive); "a-h" means from a to h
(inclusive).
For example, [16A] can match a string
containing any character among 1, 6,
and A; [1-36A] can match a string
containing any character among 1, 2, 3,
6, and A (with - being a hyphen).
"]" can be matched only when it is put at
the beginning of [ ] if it is used as a
common character in [ ], for example
[ ]string]. There is no such limit on "[".
