anyOf is not matched requirements

How can JavaVerbalExpressions build a simple regex like this: [\d,]+

VerbalExpression.regex().anyOf("0123456789,").oneOrMore().build()

It 's too ugly! How about this one: [a-k\s\d,]+ ?

It would be nice to add a anyOf method that can used like this:

VerbalExpression.regex().anyOf(DigitCharSet, WordCharSet, SpaceCharSet ,";:,\\").oneOrMore().build()

It’s some late, but I think with an indentation it can be better:

.add("[")
.wordChar().space().digit()
.add("]")
.oneOrMore()

You are right, sometimes regex is better than ve, principally for those who know regex enough. But we have a lot of thing to improve our code, whatever we use.

In some cases it’s true! VE is mostly for those who don’t know how to type simple regex. Or where you should write something that should be human-readable (for example in tests).
