        !            19: .rs
        !            20: .sp
        !            21: This is a convenience function for extracting a captured substring by name. The
        !            22: arguments are:
        !            23: .sp
        !            24:   \fIcode\fP          Compiled pattern
        !            25:   \fIsubject\fP       Subject that has been successfully matched
        !            26:   \fIovector\fP       Offset vector that \fBpcre_exec()\fP used
        !            27:   \fIstringcount\fP   Value returned by \fBpcre_exec()\fP
        !            28:   \fIstringname\fP    Name of the required substring
        !            29:   \fIstringptr\fP     Where to put the string pointer
        !            30: .sp
        !            31: The memory in which the substring is placed is obtained by calling
        !            32: \fBpcre_malloc()\fP. The convenience function \fBpcre_free_substring()\fP can
        !            33: be used to free it when it is no longer needed. The yield of the function is
        !            34: the length of the extracted substring, PCRE_ERROR_NOMEMORY if sufficient memory
        !            35: could not be obtained, or PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if the string name is invalid.
        !            36: .P
        !            37: There is a complete description of the PCRE native API in the
        !            38: .\" HREF
