hello,
in the manual there is the header "matcher selection" for selecting the
type of regular expression. Since a "matcher" is something that matches,
the matching criteria/matching sheme/matching method shouldn't be called
like this.
furthermore, in the german version it should be "bug-grep@" rather than
"bug-greps@".

thanks

Thanks for reporting this. I installed the attached patch, which renames the
section to "Pattern Syntax".

Please report this problem to whoever maintains the German version; it's not us
as we do only the English version. The German version's source should say who to
report to. Thanks.
