Basic matching

import tinox.core.regex
class Main
{
    fnc main() -> Int32
    {
        const text: String = "order #4711 shipped, order #4899 pending"
        if (Regex::isMatch("order #[0-9]+", text))
        {
            println("found at least one order reference")
        }

        const first: String = Regex::findFirst("#[0-9]+", text)
        println("first match: " + first)
        const all: List<String> = Regex::findAll("#[0-9]+", text)
        var i: Int64 = 0
        while i < all.len()
        {
            println("match " + i.toString() + ": " + all[i])
            i = i + 1
        }

        const redacted: String = Regex::replaceAll("#[0-9]+", text, "#***")
        println(redacted)
        return 0
