Remarks
Abstract method which subclasses override to provide the mechanism for finding the previous match in the target text. This allows different subclasses to provide different search algorithms.
If a match is found, the implementation should return the index at which the match starts and should call #setMatchLength with the number of characters in the target text that make up the match. If no match is found, the method should return #DONE.
