Yes. If C is very good, I won't use pascal (especially fpc) at the
first place. :-P
Do you really not see the difference between
a) code already written and tested by others
b) code written by yourself
The regexp library is case 1. A program using that library is case 2.
Case 1 can be written in C because the original author prefers C.
Case 2 can be written in Pascal because you prefer Pascal. "Language
superiority" does not enter the picture.
