LikeThis-package: Adds infix regular expression operators to R.

In jdidion/LikeThis: Adds friendly and familiar infix regular expression operators to R.

Description

R package LikeThis adds infix regular expression operators to R that will be familiar to perl users. The package provides two matching operators: %~%, which returns a MatchResultR (which has methods for accessing capture groups), and %?~%, which returns a logical and makes capture groups accessible in the local environment via the .match list variable. The later can be used iteratively in a loop to perform progressive matching. The package also provides a substitution operator, %!~%.
