Class Public methods
Constructs a new regular expression from pattern, which can be
either a String or a Regexp (in which case that
regexp's options are propagated), and new options may not be specified
(a change as of Ruby 1.8).
If options is a Fixnum, it should be
one or more of the constants Regexp::EXTENDED, Regexp::IGNORECASE, and
Regexp::MULTILINE, or-ed together. Otherwise, if
options is not nil or false, the
regexp will be case insensitive.
When the kcode parameter is `n' or `N' sets the regexp
no encoding. It means that the regexp is for binary strings.
