Synopsis:

    regex istream -> boolean

Examples:

    See examples of regex_find, exchange second string with a file.

Description:

    Takes the first argument. Calls regexec to find out
      if this regex matches the stream. Reports
      success/failure in a boolean true/false.

Parameters:

    in: first argument  : a regex generated by regcomp
      second argument : an istream where this
      regex should be matched.
      out: true/false telling if there is a/is no match.

Bugs:

Diagnostics:

    no errors raised

Remarks:

    Does _not_ return any information about the matched
      expression more than matched/not matched; use lower
      level commands regcomp, regexec if in need!
