BioSequences.RE.RegexMatch behaves nothing like Base.RegexMatch

[estragon0]

BioSequences.RE.RegexMatch lacks the "match" and "offset" fields of Base.RegexMatch, which not only makes it considerably less useful, but is somewhat difficult to debug because their print() representation is identical.

Code:

string_seq = "ARNDCEQG"
aa_seq = aa"ARNDCEQG"

string_match = match(r"DCE", string_seq)
aa_match = match(biore"DCE"aa, aa_seq)

println(string_match)
println(aa_match)

println(fieldnames(typeof(string_match)))
println(fieldnames(typeof(aa_match)))

Result:

RegexMatch("DCE")
RegexMatch("DCE")
(:match, :captures, :offset, :offsets, :regex)
(:seq, :captured)

Thanks. I may need to reconsider the design of these tools.
