;;; Commentary:
;; The "opt" in "regexp-opt" stands for "optim\\(al\\|i\\(se\\|ze\\)\\)".
;;
;; This package generates a regexp from a given list of strings (that matches
;; one of those strings) that is equivalent to but more efficient than:
;;
;; (mapconcat 'identity (mapcar 'regexp-quote strings) "\\|")
;;
;; For example:
;;
;; (let ((strings '("cond" "if" "when" "unless" "while"
;; "let" "let*" "progn" "prog1" "prog2"
;; "save-restriction" "save-excursion" "save-window-excursion"
;; "save-current-buffer" "save-match-data"
;; "catch" "throw" "unwind-protect" "condition-case")))
;; (concat "(" (regexp-opt strings t) "\\>"))
;; => "(\\(c\\(atch\\|ond\\(ition-case\\)?\\)\\|if\\|let\\*?\\|prog[12n]\\|save-\\(current-buffer\\|excursion\\|match-data\\|restriction\\|window-excursion\\)\\|throw\\|un\\(less\\|wind-protect\\)\\|wh\\(en\\|ile\\)\\)\\>"
;;
;; Searching using the above example `regexp-opt' regexp is significantly
;; faster than searching using the equivalent `mapconcat' regexp, taking
;; approximately two-thirds of the time.
;;
;; Since this package was written to produce efficient regexps, not regexps
;; efficiently, it is probably not a good idea to in-line too many calls in
;; your code, unless you use the following trick with `eval-when-compile':
;;
;; (defvar definition-regexp
;; (eval-when-compile
;; (concat "^("
;; (regexp-opt '("defun" "defsubst" "defmacro" "defalias"
;; "defvar" "defconst") t)
;; "\\>")))
;;
;; The `byte-compile' code will be as if you had defined the variable thus:
;;
;; (defvar definition-regexp
;; "^(\\(def\\(alias\\|const\\|macro\\|subst\\|un\\|var\\)\\)\\>")
;;
;; Originally written for font-lock.el, from an idea from Stig's hl319.el.
;; Please don't tell me that it doesn't produce optimal regexps; I know that
;; already. For example, the above explanation for the meaning of "opt" would
;; be more efficient as "optim\\(al\\|i[sz]e\\)", but this requires complex
;; forward looking. But (ideas or) code to improve things (are) is welcome.
;;; Code:

(defun regexp-opt (strings &optional paren)
"Return a regexp to match a string in STRINGS.
If optional PAREN non-nil, ensure that the returned regexp is enclosed by at
least one regexp grouping construct.
Each string in STRINGS should be unique and should not contain any regexps.
The returned regexp is typically more efficient than the equivalent regexp:
(mapconcat 'identity (mapcar 'regexp-quote STRINGS) \"\\\\|\")
but typically contains regexp grouping constructs. Use `regexp-opt-depth' to
count them."
