C is easy. If you set C to False then the casing of text is ignored. "B" is the same as "b".

R allows you to use a RegEx expression instead of a wildcard pattern. Regular Expressions are very powerful, but very complicated. I do not understand the syntax so I cannot explain it, but there are plenty of online resources for it.

Did not know this component existed...let alone that a component in GH accepted regexs. I've been writing all of mine with ghPython components, which is kind of a clunky way to use regexs. Would you mind telling me which version of regexs the TextMatch component supports? Are these Perl Compatible Regular Expressions (PCRE)?

These are standard .NET regex expressions.
