    The string to be matched by pcre_exec()


-       The subject string is passed to pcre_exec() as a pointer in subject,  a
-       length  in  bytes in length, and a starting byte offset in startoffset.
-       If this is  negative  or  greater  than  the  length  of  the  subject,
-       pcre_exec()  returns  PCRE_ERROR_BADOFFSET. When the starting offset is

    How pcre_exec() returns captured substrings


-       In  general, a pattern matches a certain portion of the subject, and in
-       addition, further substrings from the subject  may  be  picked  out  by
-       parts  of  the  pattern.  Following the usage in Jeffrey Friedl's book,
-       this is called "capturing" in what follows, and the  phrase  "capturing
-       subpattern"  is  used for a fragment of a pattern that picks out a sub-
-       string. PCRE supports several other kinds of  parenthesized  subpattern
+       In general, a pattern matches a certain portion of the subject, and  in

+       subpattern" is used for a fragment of a pattern that picks out  a  sub-
+       string.  PCRE  supports several other kinds of parenthesized subpattern
        that do not cause substrings to be captured.


        Captured substrings are returned to the caller via a vector of integers
-       whose address is passed in ovector. The number of elements in the  vec-
-       tor  is  passed in ovecsize, which must be a non-negative number. Note:
+       whose  address is passed in ovector. The number of elements in the vec-
+       tor is passed in ovecsize, which must be a non-negative  number.  Note:
        this argument is NOT the size of ovector in bytes.


-       The first two-thirds of the vector is used to pass back  captured  sub-
-       strings,  each  substring using a pair of integers. The remaining third
-       of the vector is used as workspace by pcre_exec() while  matching  cap-
-       turing  subpatterns, and is not available for passing back information.
-       The number passed in ovecsize should always be a multiple of three.  If
+       The  first  two-thirds of the vector is used to pass back captured sub-
+       strings, each substring using a pair of integers. The  remaining  third

+       The  number passed in ovecsize should always be a multiple of three. If
        it is not, it is rounded down.


-       When  a  match  is successful, information about captured substrings is
-       returned in pairs of integers, starting at the  beginning  of  ovector,
-       and  continuing  up  to two-thirds of its length at the most. The first
-       element of each pair is set to the byte offset of the  first  character
-       in  a  substring, and the second is set to the byte offset of the first
-       character after the end of a substring. Note: these values  are  always

        byte offsets, even in UTF-8 mode. They are not character counts.


-       The  first  pair  of  integers, ovector[0] and ovector[1], identify the
-       portion of the subject string matched by the entire pattern.  The  next
-       pair  is  used for the first capturing subpattern, and so on. The value

+       portion  of  the subject string matched by the entire pattern. The next
+       pair is used for the first capturing subpattern, and so on.  The  value
        returned by pcre_exec() is one more than the highest numbered pair that
-       has  been  set.  For example, if two substrings have been captured, the
-       returned value is 3. If there are no capturing subpatterns, the  return
+       has been set.  For example, if two substrings have been  captured,  the
+       returned  value is 3. If there are no capturing subpatterns, the return
        value from a successful match is 1, indicating that just the first pair
        of offsets has been set.


        If a capturing subpattern is matched repeatedly, it is the last portion
        of the string that it matched that is returned.

-       tern contains back references and the ovector  is  not  big  enough  to

+       The traditional matching function uses a  similar  algorithm  to  Perl,
        which stops when it finds the first match, starting at a given point in
-       the  subject.  If you want to find all possible matches, or the longest
-       possible match, consider using the alternative matching  function  (see

        tation.


        What you have to do is to insert a callout right at the end of the pat-

+BINARY FILES
+
+       By default, a file that contains a binary zero byte  within  the  first
+       1024  bytes is identified as a binary file, and is processed specially.
+       (GNU grep also  identifies  binary  files  in  this  manner.)  See  the

+       --binary-files=word
+                 Specify how binary files are to be processed. If the word  is
+                 "binary"  (the  default),  pattern  matching  is performed on
+                 binary files, but the only  output  is  "Binary  file  <name>
+                 matches"  when a match succeeds. If the word is "text", which

        --colour, --color
                  If this option is given without any data, it is equivalent to

                  them all.


                  The colour that is used can be specified by setting the envi-
                  ronment variable PCREGREP_COLOUR or PCREGREP_COLOR. The value
                  of this variable should be a string of two numbers, separated
-                 by a semicolon. They are copied  directly  into  the  control
-                 string  for  setting  colour  on  a  terminal,  so it is your
-                 responsibility to ensure that they make sense. If neither  of
-                 the  environment  variables  is  set,  the default is "1;31",

                  which gives red.


        -D action, --devices=action
-                 If an input path is  not  a  regular  file  or  a  directory,
-                 "action"  specifies  how  it is to be processed. Valid values

                  are "read" (the default) or "skip" (silently skip the path).


        -d action, --directories=action
                  If an input path is a directory, "action" specifies how it is
-                 to  be  processed.   Valid  values  are "read" (the default),
-                 "recurse" (equivalent to the -r option), or "skip"  (silently
-                 skip  the path). In the default case, directories are read as
-                 if they were ordinary files. In some  operating  systems  the
-                 effect  of reading a directory like this is an immediate end-
+                 to be processed.  Valid  values  are  "read"  (the  default),

        -e pattern, --regex=pattern, --regexp=pattern
                  Specify a pattern to be matched. This option can be used mul-
                  tiple times in order to specify several patterns. It can also
-                 be used as a way of specifying a single pattern  that  starts
-                 with  a hyphen. When -e is used, no argument pattern is taken
-                 from the command line; all  arguments  are  treated  as  file
-                 names.  There is an overall maximum of 100 patterns. They are

-                 used with -e, the command line patterns  are  matched  first,
-                 followed  by  the  patterns from the file, independent of the
-                 order in which these options are specified. Note that  multi-

                  ple use of -e is not the same as a single pattern with alter-
                  natives. For example, X|Y finds the first character in a line

-                 Y  in the line. It finds Y only if there is no X in the line.
-                 This really matters only if you are  using  -o  to  show  the
+                 Y in the line. It finds Y only if there is no X in the  line.
+                 This  really  matters  only  if  you are using -o to show the
                  part(s) of the line that matched.

                  matched against the final component of the file name (not the
-                 entire path). If a  file  name  matches  both  --include  and

                  is selected if any of the fixed strings are found in it (sub-
                  ject to -w or -x, if present).


        -f filename, --file=filename
-                 Read  a  number  of patterns from the file, one per line, and

                  if any of the patterns match it. The filename can be given as
                  "-" to refer to the standard input. When -f is used, patterns

-                 patterns. Trailing white space is removed from each line, and

OPTIONS COMPATIBILITY
