I don't know about emacs, but if their regular expressions are anything
like ed,sed,vi, expr ..... (insert lots of other unix tools), then the
source code is in /usr/include/regexp.h on any decent unix machine. Some
of the routines must however still be added (like getc()?). I've used it
in several applications and it works just fine.
There are also a few functions like regex and regcmp but personaly I
prefer the basics.

If you need help, just mail.
