           Summary: README is wrong about  --with-pcregrep-bufsize=50K
           Product: PCRE
           Version: 8.34
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: work:tiny
          Severity: bug
          Priority: low
         Component: Documentation
        AssignedTo: ph10@???
        ReportedBy: tony.reix@???
                CC: pcre-dev@???

README file says that default buffer size can be changed by:

--with-pcregrep-bufsize=50K

K is not understood by ./configure.
Rather, it should be said all numeric, like:

--with-pcregrep-bufsize=51200


So, README should be changed, and ./configure should fail if given 50K .



$ ./configure --with-pcregrep-bufsize=50K ; make ; make test
....
./configure: line 18914: test: 50K: integer expression expected
....

Buffer size for pcregrep ........ : 50K

When using --with-pcregrep-bufsize=51200 , everything is OK.
