(We don't have to run the regex until the end.) But I cannot find any library that does it... Strictly speaking, a DFA or NFA always consumes the entire input; the question of interest is whether it halts in an accepting state or not. It would be easy to transform a DFA or NFA in the manner that you want, though. For each non-accepting state, determine whether it has any transitions that lead in one or more steps to an accepting state. Modify the FSM so that each such state is also an accepting state.
