=to_regexp

Basically a safe way to convert strings to regexps (with options).

    str = "/finalis(é)/im"
    old_way = eval(str)     # not safe
    new_way = str.to_regexp # provided by this gem
    old_way == new_way      # true

You can get the options passed to <tt>Regexp.new</tt> with

    str.as_regexp                              # a hash of options passed to Regexp.new
    str.to_regexp == Regexp.new(str.as_regexp) # true
