Hi
It seems that most of bugs is rexgen/librexgen related, but one is from
john's side, I think. That one with missing ']' character between \0 and
the rest of string.
If we name "(?i:foo\0" a prefix version of command and "\0(?i:bar)" a
postfix version, than rexgen has problem with both of them, but
librexgen only with prefix one.
$ rexgen [pP][aA]|rexgen -f - "(?i:y|n)\0(?i:y|n)"

Other thing can be solved by rewriting README.librexgen file. Manual for
rexgen is very helpful.
I send a mail to Jan Starke about bugs in rexgen and librexgen.
Regex is great as post-processing of password candidates and is much
easier an faster to write regex option on command line than write rules
in john.conf.
