Both the buffer and the buffer +/* pointer are modified. +/* .IP parens +/* One matching pair of parentheses, opening parenthesis first. +/* .IP flags +/* EXTPAR_FLAG_NONE, or the bitwise OR of one or more flags: +/* .RS +/* .IP EXTPAR_FLAG_EXTRACT +/* This flag is intended to instruct expar() callers that +/* expar() should be invoked.
