Stateless RegExp methods

The issues

• The rules for the flags /g and /y are complicated.
• Regular expression operations keep state in RegExp objects, via property .lastIndex. That leads to several pitfalls if a RegExp object is used multiple times. It also makes it impossible to freeze instances of RegExp.
• String.prototype.replace() accepts a callback where accessing named captures is inconvenient (via an object that is passed as the last argument).

Pure ESM package

The package that linked you here is now pure ESM. It cannot be require()'d from CommonJS.

This means you have the following choices:

1. Use ESM yourself. (preferred)
   Use import foo from 'foo' instead of const foo = require('foo') to import the package. You also need to put "type": "module" in your package.json and more. Follow the below guide.
2. If the package is used in an async context, you could use await import(…) from CommonJS instead of require(…).
3. Stay on the existing version of the package until you can move to ESM.

// A Dict class that works in ES6 using Map. Basically it's identical to Map, but
// only expected to be used on string keys.

function Dict() {
    this.elts = new Map();
}

// (string) -> any
Dict.prototype.get = function get(key) {
    return this.elts.get(key);
