If you just want to show off, the easiest is simply making a FPC header to pcre, it might be useful even.
Someone had worked on it using Delphi7 and PCRE. A little optimization is done on the TStringList, it uses CompareText instead of CompareStr for text comparison. It does faster than my program (using fpc and the default TStringList), but still about 40% slower than Perl. Plus, the program depends on PCRE library. :(
