--- Comment #2 from V Stuart Foote <vstuart.foote at utsa.edu> ---
Actually, LibreOffice's RegEx support is via ICU libraries, our documentation
comes from there including coverage of ICU RegEx Operators to lookahead and
lookbehind and their negatives--the Lookarounds

The Help now links to the Wiki
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/Writer/Regular_Expressions
 or to
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/HowTo/Calc/Regular_Expressions
both of which correctly defer to the ICU content [1].

It is a little thin, but authoritative, and should be basis for addition to our
Help and Documentation--with some practical examples included, preferably on
our Wiki. The OOo era content at AOO should probably go away.
