Named subpatterns can be provided as strings or regex objects. A leading `^` and trailing unescaped `$` are stripped from subpatterns if both are present, which allows embedding independently-useful anchored patterns. `{{…}}` tokens can be quantified as a single unit. Any backreferences in the outer pattern or provided subpatterns are automatically renumbered to work correctly within the larger combined pattern. The syntax `({{name}})` works as shorthand for named capture via `(?<name>{{name}})`. Named subpatterns cannot be embedded within character classes.

result = XRegExp.match('... a+b*c ...', merge);
console.log(result); // a+b*c

// http://xregexp.com/api/#matchRecursive
var str = '(t((e))s)t()(ing)';
result = XRegExp.matchRecursive(str, '\\(', '\\)', 'g');
console.log(result); // -> ['t((e))s', '', 'ing']

// Extended information mode with valueNames
str = 'Here is <div> <div>an</div></div> example <div > and </div> more';
