Comments

Verex object is built accumulatively by calling L_Verex_AddStringExpression with any of the enumeration values and parameters. Each call considers the pattern before, then adds it if necessary.

Verex

Verex stands for verbal expression. Refers to an API that builds a Regex expression using intuitive verbal expressions, such as start of line, match anything, match a word, etc. It builds accumulatively by adding to the verbal expression until a whole Regex phrase is complete and then you can export it.
