What do you need to know? Documentation for the underlying pcre library
might be your best option.

The Ocaml library is essentially a very thin wrapper around the original
C library. Therefore, all your documentation needs should be satisfied
by the original docs available at www.pcre.org. I've used PCRE extensively,
and still haven't found one issue that wasn't covered in those docs...

Hi

For the ocaml part, I found this:
http://www.janestreet.com/ocaml/janestreet-ocamldocs/pcre/index.html
and this:
http://hg.ocaml.info/release/pcre-ocaml/file/8393f8f80c40/lib/pcre.mli
still quite useful.

ACK.

FWIW, in Debian (and derivatives) packages, ocamldoc API references are
consistently generated and made available under
/usr/share/doc/PKGNAME/html/api/, and also registered with doc-base.
Hence, you can usually browse all the HTML API references of installed
OCaml libraries with tools like dwww at
http://localhost/dwww/menu/sprogramming_ocaml.html

PCRE is no exception (PKGNAME = libpcre-ocaml-dev), even though it was
affected by http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=570717 ,
which got fixed a few minutes ago.

Cheers.
