<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.
