  works fine:

  import re
  echo find("uabyxabyzc", re"ab.z")  # found pattern "ab.z" at position 5
  Run

  when I flip from re to regex:

  import regex      #  <== change "re" to "regex"
  echo find("uabyxabyzc", re"ab.z")  # found pattern "ab.z" at position 5
  Run

  whoops - "re" and "regex" are different :-) ... read the manual ... :

  import regex
  match "uabyxabyzc", rex"ab.z":
    echo matches
  Run
