| <P> |
| <b>pcre2-config</b> returns the configuration of the installed PCRE2 libraries |
| and the options required to compile a program to use them. Some of the options |
| apply only to the 8-bit, or 16-bit, or 32-bit libraries, respectively, and are |
| not available for libraries that have not been built. If an unavailable option |
| is encountered, the "usage" information is output. |
