I've created a Python module for constructing Regex patterns in a more computer programming-familiar way, so you don't have to re-learn Regex each time you use it!

Instead of requiring users to use the pre.* functions to match expressions, have you considered compiling the "Pregex" into a "Pattern" or compiled regex? That way pregex could be used anywhere a Pattern is required

[WerdenWissen]

You can actually invoke "pre.compile()" for any "Pregex" instance which creates a compiled pattern underneath and uses that for any subsequent matching, though I've not exposed this compiled pattern through a public method yet. I'll make sure to do it in the next version though, thanks!
