string that is not actually an instance of \fBfoobar\fR, and get the
letters following it up to the end of the word into a variable:

-regexp {\\<foo(?!bar\\>)(\\w*)} $string \-> restOfWord
+\fBregexp\fR {\\<foo(?!bar\\>)(\\w*)} $string \-> restOfWord

Note that the whole matched substring has been placed in the variable
\fB\->\fR which is a name chosen to look nice given that we are not
actually interested in its contents.
