Regex based Rule engine.
Hi,

Greetings.

We need to make a regexp based rule engine.
The rules would be applied to any file specified and the data not matching should be logged.
Would awk be the right scripting language.

Regards,
Dikesh Shah.

Why do you want to re-invent the wheel? Perl has a very powerful regex engine. You may use Perl.

I'm presuming by 'engine', he means 'program that uses regexes', not 'program that implements regexes'.

awk or perl would both be good languages for this.
