                     21: This convenience function finds, for a compiled pattern, the first and last
                     22: entries for a given name in the table that translates capturing parenthesis
                     23: names into numbers. When names are required to be unique (PCRE_DUPNAMES is
1.1.1.2   misho      24: \fInot\fP set), it is usually easier to use \fBpcre[16]_get_stringnumber()\fP
1.1       misho      25: instead.
                     26: .sp
                     27:   \fIcode\fP    Compiled regular expression
                     28:   \fIname\fP    Name whose entries required
                     29:   \fIfirst\fP   Where to return a pointer to the first entry

                     31: .sp
                     32: The yield of the function is the length of each entry, or
                     33: PCRE_ERROR_NOSUBSTRING if none are found.
                     34: .P
