Cygwin's regex implements POSIX regular expressions as described in, for instance, http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/xbd_chap09.html What you're looking for are perl regular expressions and they are only available if nano is built against the perl regex library which apparently it isn't.
