Description Karol Gusak CLA 2011-06-05 17:28:07 EDT 
Many TextMate patterns defined in grammar files use (?i) for case-insensitive matching of whole pattern. It'd be reasonable to recognize this flag similarly to (?x) which is already supported.
Comment 1 Mark Macdonald CLA 2011-06-17 15:08:49 EDT 
I agree, this would be good to have. It should be possible to detect stuff that is equivalent to a global regex /i flag (like "(?i)foo" and "(?i:foo)") and turn it into the global flag.

I'll investigate it after 0.2 is released.
Comment 2 Mark Macdonald CLA 2011-08-29 11:00:21 EDT 
This is now supported. The limitation is that, as I mentioned in Comment 1, the "i" flag must apply to the entire pattern.
