I first thought it could be maple. Maple uses || for string catenation (in version 5 and 7, version 3 uses .). It does not have regexps.

However, maple (version 7 at least) has string functions to do this:

with(StringTools):
str:="2-h/":
if ""<>Select(IsAlpha, str) then `has alphas` else `no alphas` fi;
str:="2-/":
if ""<>Select(IsAlpha, str) then `has alphas` else `no alphas` fi;
