  body: "Constructs a new regular expression from <em>pattern</em>, which can be either a <tt>String</tt> or a <tt>Regexp</tt> (in which case that regexp's options are propagated, and new options may not be specified (a change as of Ruby 1.8). If <em>options</em> is a <tt>Fixnum</tt>, it should be one or more of the constants <tt>Regexp::EXTENDED</tt>, <tt>Regexp::IGNORECASE</tt>, and <tt>Regexp::MULTILINE</tt>, <em>or</em>-ed together. Otherwise, if <em>options</em> is not <tt>nil</tt>, the regexp will be case insensitive. The <em>lang</em> parameter enables multibyte support for the regexp: `n', `N' = none, `e', `E' = EUC, `s', `S' = SJIS, `u', `U' = UTF-8."
