## Regex
Apply regex and that.
### Description
Allows you to run regex replaces on both your own and others messages. One may
run a regex on their own last message like so:
> user: I like turtles
> user: s/turtles/pizza/
One may run a regex on another user's last message simple by hilighting the nick
before the pattern:
> batman: I like TURTLES
> user: batman: s/turtles/pizza/i
Note: As this is JS regex, the second part of the regex is actually just a
string and therefore some regex features aren't available (such as lookaheads).
On a related note, the regex flags available for use are limited to i and g.
