regex '\w' is ''

\w is working if you install exrex from master
(\W, \D and \S are still not working)

I'm facing the same issue.

Same here.
There are other variations that also don't work:

"\D", "\W" and "\S".

However, I do agree that having "\w" working is much more important.

Thanks for the heads-up, @CrafterKolyan! For reference, the PR that implemented this was #42. It was merged on 7 October 2019, and there hasn't been a release since then.

Confirming that this feature (and most probably many other new features) are still not present on the (PyPI) release
