NAME

   pcre-config - program to return PCRE configuration

SYNOPSIS

   pcre-config  [--prefix]  [--exec-prefix]  [--version] [--libs] [--libs-
   posix] [--cflags] [--cflags-posix]

DESCRIPTION

   pcre-config returns the configuration of the installed PCRE  libraries:
   the options required to compile a program to use them.

OPTIONS

   --prefix  Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation for
             architecture  independent  files  (e.g.  /usr)  to   standard
             output.

   --exec-prefix
             Writes the directory prefix used in the PCRE installation for
             architecture dependent files (normally the same as  --prefix)
             to standard output.

   --version Writes the version of PCRE installed to standard output.

   --libs    Writes  to  standard output the command line options required
             to link with PCRE (e.g. -lpcre).

   --libs-posix
             Writes to standard output the command line  options  required
             to   link   with  the  PCRE  POSIX  emulation  library  (e.g.
             -lpcreposix -lpcre).

   --cflags  Writes to standard output the command line  options  required
             to  compile  files that use PCRE (this often includes some -I
             options, but is blank on debian systems).

   --cflags-posix
             Writes to standard output the command line  options  required
             to  compile  files  that use the PCRE POSIX emulation library
             (this often includes some -I options, but is blank on  debian
             systems).  Suppress  printing  of  filenames  when  searching
             multiple files.
