Subject: shorthand notation for multiline in regexps?

Is there a way to declare a multiline or ignorecase regexp without using 
Regexp.new()?  I'd like to be able to do something like:

/someregexp/im

or something like that, similar to the way perl allows you to put stuff 
after the regexp.  I can't find anything about this in Programming Ruby.
