Description: Emacs mode to convert between PCRE, Emacs and rx regexp syntax
 `pcre2el' or `rxt' (RegeXp Translator or RegeXp Tools) is a utility
 for working with regular expressions in Emacs, based on a
 recursive-descent parser for regexp syntax. In addition to converting
 (a subset of) PCRE syntax into its Emacs equivalent, it can do the
 following:
 .
  - convert Emacs syntax to PCRE
  - convert either syntax to `rx', an S-expression based regexp syntax
  - untangle complex regexps by showing the parse tree in `rx' form and
    highlighting the corresponding chunks of code
  - show the complete list of strings (productions) matching a regexp,
    provided the list is finite
  - provide live font-locking of regexp syntax (so far only for Elisp
    buffers -- other modes on the TODO list)
