--- Comment #2 from Philippe Cloutier <[email protected]> ---
Apologies, I just realized that pcre.org is not PCRE’s official website (even
though it looks like it is). I would therefore instead recommend replacing the
link with https://pcre2project.github.io/pcre2/doc/pcre2syntax/
That page is not strictly superior since the width is fixed to a narrow column,
but I am hoping upstream improves that.

By the way, I now see that upstream’s official spelling is “Perl-compatible
regular expressions” (with a hyphen after “Perl”).

Thanks again Rich
That will solve for 2.6.

Issues mentioned “By the way” do not expand ticket scope; the issue can be
marked as resolved regardless of issues mentioned “By the way”. I do not reopen
tickets just because of these.
