Since quotes are in fashion, here's another:

Tell that to a politician or fanatic!
I have used them all and all work well... As a test I deleted ALL extensions from a 5mb test drive (laptop HDD) and then deleted everything listed... adds a layer of security to a delete!
NEXT UP: reading each file 1 byte at a time and writing a random 1 or 0 THEN deleting it!

So let me get this straight.
If you create the RegualrExpression then you should 'FreeRegularExpression' before you create it again but if you recreate it with the same constant then it is ok since pb just frees it for you. I suppose if you created the RegularExpression using #PB_Any then you would have a memory leak!
I'm guessing this applies to images created in procedures also. I've been a little lax in that regard.
