freebsd-ports/devel/pcre/pkg-descr

The PCRE library is a set of functions that implement regular expression
pattern matching using the same syntax and semantics as Perl 5, with just
a few differences. The current implementation corresponds to Perl 5.005.
PCRE is  used by many programs, including Exim, Postfix, and PHP.
