The regular expression code is loosely derived from the BSD library by Henry Spencer. Aba uses the LZ4 compression algorithm internally (see below).

Many thanks to JJS, who provided plenty of suggestions and bug reports. Without his help, Aba 1.0 would be slower and buggy, or may be never released at all.

Thanks to Angelo and Antonio from Geminisoft for their kind help and to Karsten Kankowski for his tips. Thanks to translators: Stefan Schuck (German), Angelo and Antonio (Italian), Roberto Porcar (Spanish), and Pouemes (French).

Finally, thank you for using Aba Search and Replace. I hope that you will find this program useful and handy.
