+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.rs
+.sp
+This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring. The
+arguments are:
+.sp
+ \fIsubject\fP Subject that has been successfully matched
+ \fIovector\fP Offset vector that \fBpcre[16|32]_exec()\fP used
+ \fIstringcount\fP Value returned by \fBpcre[16|32]_exec()\fP
+ \fIstringnumber\fP Number of the required substring
+ \fIstringptr\fP Where to put the string pointer
+.sp
+The memory in which the substring is placed is obtained by calling
+\fBpcre[16|32]_malloc()\fP. The convenience function
+\fBpcre[16|32]_free_substring()\fP can be used to free it when it is no longer
+needed. The yield of the function is the length of the substring,
+PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory could not be obtained, or
+PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string number is invalid.
+.P
+There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the
+.\" HREF
+\fBpcreapi\fP
+.\"
+page and a description of the POSIX API in the
+.\" HREF
+\fBpcreposix\fP
+.\"
+page.
