    You should not match more characters with @var{tagregexp} than that
  needed to recognize what you want to tag.  If the match is such that
  more characters than needed are unavoidably matched by @var{tagregexp}
! (as will usually be the case), you should add a @var{nameregexp}, to
  pick out just the tag.  This will enable Emacs to find tags more
  accurately and to do completion on tag names more reliably.  You can
  find some examples below.
  
!   The option @samp{--ignore-case-regex} (or @samp{-c}) works like
! @samp{--regex}, except that matching ignores case.  This is
! appropriate for certain programming languages.
  
    The @samp{-R} option deletes all the regexps defined with
  @samp{--regex} options.  It applies to the file names following it, as

!   A @samp{--regex} option can be restricted to match only files of a
! given language using the optional prefix @address@hidden@}}.  This is
! particularly useful when storing many predefined regular expressions
! for @code{etags} in a file.
! 
!   The @var{modifiers} are a sequence of 0 or more characters that
! modify the way @code{etags} does the matching.  Without modifiers,
! each regexp is applied sequentially to each line of the input file, in
! a case-sensitive way.  The modifiers and their meanings are:
! 
! @table @samp
! @item i
! ignore case when matching.
! @item m
! do not match line by line; rather, match the whole file, so that
! multi-line matches are possible.
! @item s
! implies @samp{m}, and causes dots in @var{tagregexp} to match newlines
! as well.
! @end table
! 
!   A @var{regexfile} is the name of a file where regular expressions
! are stored, one per line.  Lines beginning with space or tab are
! ignored, and can be used for adding comments.
