.TH PCRE 3
.SH NAME
PCRE - Perl-compatible regular expressions
.SH SYNOPSIS
.rs
.sp
.B #include <pcre.h>
.PP
.SM
.br
.B const unsigned char *pcre_maketables(void);

.SH DESCRIPTION
.rs
.sp
This function builds a set of character tables which can be passed to
\fBpcre_compile()\fR to override PCRE's internal, built-in tables (which were
made by \fBpcre_maketables()\fR when PCRE was compiled). You might want to do
this if you are using a non-standard locale. The function yields a pointer to
the tables.

There is a complete description of the PCRE API in the
.\" HREF
\fBpcreapi\fR
.\"
page.
