 Class
-    Foam::regularExpression
+    Foam::regExp
 
 Description
-    Wrapper around regular expressions.
+    Wrapper around POSIX extended regular expressions.
+
+    The beginning-of-line (^) and the end-of-line ($) anchors are implicit
+    by default.
+
+SeeAlso
+    The manpage regex(7) for more information about POSIX regular expressions.
+    These differ somewhat from @c Perl and @c sed regular expressions.
