(regex-case EXPRESSION CLAUSE ...)syntax

Evaluates EXPRESSION and executes the body of the first CLAUSE that matches. Each CLAUSE should be of the form:

 (REGEX LAMBDA-LIST BODY ...)

The variables in LAMBDA-LIST are bound to the results of evaluating the expression

 (string-match REGEX STRING)

The last CLAUSE may also be

 (else BODY ...)

If no CLAUSE matches, the form returns an undefined result.
