* NAME
*
* Unformatting procedure will check for length of the string from the
* buffer before trying to get the string out. Thus, one *must* format the
- * length as UI_INT or UI_SHORT into the buffer *before* formatting the
- * actual string to the buffer, and, in unformatting one must ignore the
+ * length as UINT32 or UINT16 or UINT8 into the buffer *before* formatting
+ * the actual string to the buffer, and, in unformatting one ignores the
* length of the string because unformatting procedure will take it
* automatically.
*
* Example:
*
- * Formatting: ..., SILC_STR_UI_INT(strlen(string)),
+ * Formatting: ..., SILC_STR_UINT32(strlen(string)),
* SILC_STR_UI32_STRING(string), ...
* Unformatting: ..., SILC_STR_UI32_STRING(&string), ...
*
* I.e., you can ignore the formatted length field in unformatting.
*
* UI8, UI16 and UI32 means that the length is considered to be
- * either char (8 bits), short (16 bits) or int (32 bits) in
- * unformatting.
+ * either UINT8, UINT16 or UINT32 in unformatting.
*
* _ALLOC routines automatically allocates memory for the variable sent

+/****d* silcutil/SilcBufferFormatAPI/SILC_STR_REGEX
+ *
+ * NAME
+ *
+ * #define SILC_STR_REGEX() ...
+ *
+ * DESCRIPTION
+ *
+ * Regular expression matching within the buffer.
+ *
+ * Formatting: SILC_STR_REGEX(char *regex, SilcBufferRegexFlags flags)
+ * Unformatting: SILC_STR_REGEX(char *regex, SilcBufferRegexFlags flags)
+ *
+ * SILC_STR_REGEX can be used to do regular expression matching within
+ * the SilcBuffer. When the string in the buffer matches the regular
+ * expression the position of the buffer is advanced to the position of
+ * the first match (rest of the buffer remains intact). If the regular
+ * expression does not match it is skipped, unless the flags specify
+ * otherwise. If flags are not needed they can be set to 0.
+ *
+ * In addition of matching regular expressions it can be used in a
+ * Stream Editor (sed) and Awk like fashion. The regular expression can be
+ * matched and then edited by any of the SILC_STR_* macros. The flags
+ * can be used to perform complex operations on the data. Some sed
+ * features that cannot be directly done with the flags can be done with
+ * SILC_STR_FUNC and other macros (the SILC_STR_FUNC could do anything
+ * after the match).
+ *
+ * The SILC_STR_REGEX itself is used as an opening of a block of encoding
+ * macros and must be closed with SILC_STR_END. This means that for
+ * each SILC_STR_REGEX there must be one SILC_STR_END. See examples for
+ * more information.
+ *
+ * The SILC_STR_REGEX can be used in buffer unformatting also to do
+ * string matching and parsing, but not editing, except with SILC_STR_FUNC
+ * macro, which can do anything caller wants.
+ *
+ * EXAMPLE
+ *
+ * // sed 's/foo/bar/', replace first foo with bar
+ * silc_buffer_format(buffer,
+ * SILC_STR_REGEX("foo", 0),
+ * SILC_STR_STRING("bar"),
+ * SILC_STR_END, SILC_STR_END);

+ * silc_buffer_format(buffer,
+ * SILC_STR_REGEX("foo", SILC_STR_REGEX_ALL),
+ * SILC_STR_STRING("bar"),
+ * SILC_STR_END, SILC_STR_END);
+ *
+ * // sed '/baz/s/foo/bar/g, replace all foo's with bar on lines with baz
+ * silc_buffer_format(buffer,
+ * SILC_STR_REGEX("baz", SILC_STR_REGEX_NL),
+ * SILC_STR_REGEX("foo", SILC_STR_REGEX_ALL),
