Is there a translator from pseudo English to regexp? That is, a sort of scripting language to ouput regexp? Thank you. Tuba

Your best bet is txt2re or a similar tool.

Honestly, why would anyone not want to write their own regular expressions :)

There are tools (websites) that build regular expressions on a piece of text, but they require a fair amount of user input. Checkout this one:

It sounds like you are looking for a rules engine (using it as an API in your code)? If that is the case, you should checkout Drools, it's very powerful and can do too much.
