def matchPreviousExpr(expr):
"""Helper to define an expression that is indirectly defined from
the tokens matched in a previous expression, that is, it looks
for a 'repeat' of a previous expression. For example::
first = Word(nums)
second = matchPreviousExpr(first)
matchExpr = first + ":" + second
will match C{"1:1"}, but not C{"1:2"}. Because this matches by
expressions, will *not* match the leading C{"1:1"} in C{"1:10"};
the expressions are evaluated first, and then compared, so
C{"1"} is compared with C{"10"}.
Do *not* use with packrat parsing enabled.
