Onyx's regular expression support is provided by the PCRE library package, which is open source software, written by Philip Hazel, and copyright by the University of Cambridge, England. The official PCRE distribution site is ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/. Inclusion of the previous two sentences in this documentation meets the requirements of the PCRE license, both for source and binary distributions of Onyx. See the PCRE source distribution for additional details.
The modclopt module optionally uses the libedit library. Following is the license text. Note that the Regents of the University of California have approved the retroactive removal of clause 3 from the license, which means that the advertising clause no longer applies to libedit.
