Regex is now found in various places:

Bundled with application such as Apache.

http://arglist.com/regex/ -- a repackaged version for Unix systems.
Other sites around the Internet have ports or compiled code for other systems such as Windows.
Tcl includes a rewritten regular expression library by Henry Spencer.


The GNU project has in the past published a package named Regex: this code may now be in the GNU C Library.
