        Quoting regex(7):

        Obsolete ("basic") regular expressions differ in several respects.
        '|', '+', and '?' are ordinary characters and there is no equivalent
        for their functionality. The delimiters for bounds are "\{" and "\}",
        with '{' and '}' by themselves ordinary characters. The parentheses
        for nested subexpressions are "\(" and "\)", with '(' and ')' by
        themselves ordinary characters. '^' is an ordinary character except at
        the beginning of the RE or(!) the beginning of a parenthesized
        subexpression, '$' is an ordinary character except at the end of the RE
        or(!) the end of a parenthesized subexpression, and '*' is an ordinary
        character if it appears at the beginning of the RE or the beginning of
        a parenthesized subexpression (after a possible leading '^').

        Finally, there is one new type of atom, a back reference: '\' followed
        by a nonzero decimal digit d matches the same sequence of characters
        matched by the dth parenthesized subexpression [...]
