CLUMP		CLUMP,  no	Match any combining character sequence

#* Alternation (31)

# BRANCH  	The set of branches constituting a single choice are hooked
#		together with their "next" pointers, since precedence prevents
#		anything being concatenated to any individual branch.  The
#		"next" pointer of the last BRANCH in a choice points to the
#		thing following the whole choice.  This is also where the
#		final "next" pointer of each individual branch points; each
#		branch starts with the operand node of a BRANCH node.
#
BRANCH		BRANCH, node	Match this alternative, or the next...

#*Back pointer (32)

# BACK		Normal "next" pointers all implicitly point forward; BACK
#		exists to make loop structures possible.
# not used
BACK		BACK,   no	Match "", "next" ptr points backward.

#*Literals (33..35)

EXACT		EXACT,  str	Match this string (preceded by length).
EXACTF		EXACT,  str	Match this string, folded (prec. by length).
EXACTFL		EXACT,  str	Match this string, folded in locale (w/len).

#*Do nothing types (36..37)

NOTHING		NOTHING,no	Match empty string.
# A variant of above which delimits a group, thus stops optimizations
TAIL		NOTHING,no	Match empty string. Can jump here from outside.

#*Loops (38..44)

# STAR,PLUS	'?', and complex '*' and '+', are implemented as circular
#		BRANCH structures using BACK.  Simple cases (one character
#		per match) are implemented with STAR and PLUS for speed
#		and to minimize recursive plunges.
#
STAR		STAR,   node	Match this (simple) thing 0 or more times.
PLUS		PLUS,   node	Match this (simple) thing 1 or more times.

CURLY		CURLY,  sv 2	Match this simple thing {n,m} times.
CURLYN		CURLY,  no 2	Match next-after-this simple thing 
#				{n,m} times, set parenths.
CURLYM		CURLY,  no 2	Match this medium-complex thing {n,m} times.
CURLYX		CURLY,  sv 2	Match this complex thing {n,m} times.

# This terminator creates a loop structure for CURLYX
WHILEM		WHILEM, no	Do curly processing and see if rest matches.

#*Buffer related (45..49)

# OPEN,CLOSE,GROUPP	...are numbered at compile time.
OPEN		OPEN,   num 1	Mark this point in input as start of #n.
CLOSE		CLOSE,  num 1	Analogous to OPEN.

REF		REF,    num 1	Match some already matched string
REFF		REF,    num 1	Match already matched string, folded
REFFL		REF,    num 1	Match already matched string, folded in loc.

#*Grouping assertions (50..54)

IFMATCH		BRANCHJ,off 1 2	Succeeds if the following matches.
UNLESSM		BRANCHJ,off 1 2	Fails if the following matches.
SUSPEND		BRANCHJ,off 1 1	"Independent" sub-RE.
IFTHEN		BRANCHJ,off 1 1	Switch, should be preceeded by switcher .
GROUPP		GROUPP, num 1	Whether the group matched.

#*Support for long RE (55..56)

LONGJMP		LONGJMP,off 1 1	Jump far away.
BRANCHJ		BRANCHJ,off 1 1	BRANCH with long offset.

#*The heavy worker (57..58)

EVAL		EVAL,   evl 1	Execute some Perl code.

#*Modifiers (59..60)

MINMOD		MINMOD, no	Next operator is not greedy.
LOGICAL		LOGICAL,no	Next opcode should set the flag only.

# This is not used yet (61)
RENUM		BRANCHJ,off 1 1	Group with independently numbered parens.

#*Trie Related (62..64)

# Behave the same as A|LIST|OF|WORDS would. The '..C' variants have  
# inline charclass data (ascii only), the 'C' store it in the structure.
# NOTE: the relative order of the TRIE-like regops  is signifigant

TRIE		TRIE,   trie 1	Match many EXACT(FL?)? at once. flags==type
TRIEC		TRIE,   trie charclass	Same as TRIE, but with embedded charclass data

# For start classes, contains an added fail table.
AHOCORASICK	TRIE,   trie 1	Aho Corasick stclass. flags==type
AHOCORASICKC	TRIE,   trie charclass	Same as AHOCORASICK, but with embedded charclass data

#*Recursion (65..66) 
RECURSE		RECURSE,   num/ofs 2L	recurse to paren arg1 at (signed) ofs arg2
SRECURSE	RECURSE,   no   	recurse to start of pattern

#*Named references (67..69)
NREF		NREF,    no-sv 1	Match some already matched string
NREFF		NREF,    no-sv 1	Match already matched string, folded
NREFFL		NREF,    no-sv 1	Match already matched string, folded in loc.


# NEW STUFF ABOVE THIS LINE -- Please update counts below. 

################################################################################

#*SPECIAL  REGOPS (70, 71)

# This is not really a node, but an optimized away piece of a "long" node.
# To simplify debugging output, we mark it as if it were a node
OPTIMIZED	NOTHING,off	Placeholder for dump.

# Special opcode with the property that no opcode in a compiled program
# will ever be of this type. Thus it can be used as a flag value that
# no other opcode has been seen. END is used similarly, in that an END
# node cant be optimized. So END implies "unoptimizable" and PSEUDO mean
# "not seen anything to optimize yet".
PSEUDO		PSEUDO,off	Pseudo opcode for internal use.
