#' Create a new regular expression to use in webfakes routes
#'
#' Note that webfakes uses PERL regular expressions.
#'
#' @details
#' As R does not have data type or class for regular expressions,
#' you can use `new_regexp()` to mark a string as a regular expression,
#' when adding routes.
#'
#' @param x String scalar containing a regular expression.
#' @return String with class `webfakes_regexp`.
#'
#' @aliases webfakes_regexp
#' @seealso The 'Path specification' and 'Path parameters' chapters
#' of the manual of [new_app()].
#' @export
#' @examples
#' new_regexp("^/api/match/(?<pattern>.*)$")
