Here's your call to Markup():

Markup(
  'Buckwalter',
  'directives',
  '/\\(@(\\.*?)@\\)/',
  "buckwalter_to_arabic('$1')"
);

The line with the pattern needs to look like this (taking out 2 backslashes):

Markup(
  'Buckwalter',
  'directives',
  '/\\(@(.*?)@\\)/',
  "buckwalter_to_arabic('$1')"
);

I didn't look too carefully at the accompanying script to see if there
were problems there, but at least this should get you past your first
hurdle.
