To be honest, I have no clue how regexp strings work...
A friend requested regexp support so here it is.
Google is your friend if you need help with this.

==Examples==
<source lang="pascal">var
Text: string;
begin
Text := 'regexptest test';
if (RegExpMatch('^(reg(ular)?exp(pressions?)?test|hmph) .+$', Text)) then WriteLn('IT WORKED!'); //true
Text := 'RegExpTest test';
if (RegExpMatch('^(reg(ular)?exp(pressions?)?test|hmph) .+$', Text)) then WriteLn('IT WORKED!'); //false
Text := 'regexptest ';
if (RegExpMatch('^(reg(ular)?exp(pressions?)?test|hmph) .+$', Text)) then WriteLn('IT WORKED!'); //false
Text := 'regularexppressiontest test';
if (RegExpMatch('^(reg(ular)?exp(pressions?)?test|hmph) .+$', Text)) then WriteLn('IT WORKED!'); //true
Text := 'hmph test';
if (RegExpMatch('^(reg(ular)?exp(pressions?)?test|hmph) .+$', Text)) then WriteLn('IT WORKED!'); //true
Text := 'regexp test';
if (RegExpMatch('^(reg(ular)?exp(pressions?)?test|hmph) .+$', Text)) then WriteLn('IT WORKED!'); //false
end;</source>
