+DESCRIPTION
+</b><br>
+<P>
+This function compiles a regular expression into an internal form. Its
+arguments are:
+</P>
+<P>
+<pre>
+ <i>pattern</i> A zero-terminated string containing the
+ regular expression to be compiled
+ <i>options</i> Zero or more option bits
+ <i>errptr</i> Where to put an error message
+ <i>erroffset</i> Offset in pattern where error was found
+ <i>tableptr</i> Pointer to character tables, or NULL to
+ use the built-in default
+</PRE>
+</P>
+<P>
+The option bits are:
+</P>
+<P>
+<pre>
+ PCRE_ANCHORED Force pattern anchoring
+ PCRE_CASELESS Do caseless matching
+ PCRE_DOLLAR_ENDONLY $ not to match newline at end
+ PCRE_DOTALL . matches anything including NL
+ PCRE_EXTENDED Ignore whitespace and # comments
+ PCRE_EXTRA PCRE extra features
+ (not much use currently)
+ PCRE_MULTILINE ^ and $ match newlines within data
+ PCRE_NO_AUTO_CAPTURE Disable numbered capturing paren-
+ theses (named ones available)
+ PCRE_UNGREEDY Invert greediness of quantifiers
+ PCRE_UTF8 Run in UTF-8 mode
+ PCRE_NO_UTF8_CHECK Do not check the pattern for UTF-8
+ validity (only relevant if
+ PCRE_UTF8 is set)
+</PRE>
+</P>
+<P>
+PCRE must be compiled with UTF-8 support in order to use PCRE_UTF8
+(or PCRE_NO_UTF8_CHECK).
+</P>
+<P>
+The yield of the function is a pointer to a private data structure that
+contains the compiled pattern, or NULL if an error was detected.
