Beware that regexp syntax and features vary from language to language, so
don't expect the more esoteric examples to work in Ruby without some
modification.

You might want to try reading the documentation for "PCRE", the
Perl-Compatible Regular Expressions library by Philip Hazel, author of
Exim. He writes excellent documents! Find it on freshmeat.net.
