This command can be used to cut the proof-search tree according to a
regular expression matching paths to be cut. The grammar for regular

\[\begin{array}{lcll}
e & ::= & \ident & \text{ hint or instance identifier } \\
- & & \texttt{*} & \text{ any hint } \\

& & e | e' & \text{ disjunction } \\
- & & e ; e' & \text{ sequence } \\
- & & ! e & \text{ Kleene star } \\
