28DESCRIPTION
29</b><br>
30<P>
31This function builds a set of character tables for character values less than
32256. These can be passed to <b>pcre[16]_compile()</b> to override PCRE's
33internal, built-in tables (which were made by <b>pcre[16]_maketables()</b> when
34PCRE was compiled). You might want to do this if you are using a non-standard
35locale. The function yields a pointer to the tables.
