Ellery, if you really need to match at CT, you can try Pegged: https://github.com/PhilippeSigaud/Pegged/wiki Be warned that while parsing at compile-time, it's not fast and will probably eat RAM like there is no tomorrow :) Youkei is developping CTPG, which is from the same family: https://github.com/youkei/ctpg/wiki/Home-en For both projects, the grammar is a PEG, not a regex, but the syntax is not that different. As PEG are more general, the engines are not optimized like std.regex. Philippe
