#### options.regex
Type: String, Array of Strings, or Key/value with 'include' and 'exclude' as keys
Default:
Values: word, __v_[_A-Za-z0-9]+__, .(abc)., [ 'var(.*?;)', '([a-zA-Z_$]+)[, =;]' ], ...
The regular expresion (or array of regular expressions) used to match words to be
replaced. If an array is provided then the string to be replaced will be the cumulative
result of the regular expressions.
If the regular expression contains groups (denoted by a value within parenthesis)
then only the groups will be replaced rather than the entire matching string.
Regex may also be key value pairs 'include' and 'exclude' indicating the regular expression matches to
include or exclude. e.g. { include: '([a-zA-Z0-9_$]+)[, =;]', exclude: '=[ ]*?([a-zA-Z0-9_$]+)[, =;]' }
will replace in var abc but exclude def in var abc = def.
#### options.replace
Type: String or Method
Default: ''
Values: DeLorean, Lorem, function(match) { return 'DeLorean'; }, ...
The replace string or method.
If a method is given then the result of that method will be the replace string.
The input to that method will be the string matching the regular expression.
#### options.exclude
Type: String or Array of Strings`
This is a single or array of regular expression strings which will override the default logic and
prevent matching strings from being replaced.
