400    Making new tarballs
401    -------------------
402    
403    The command "make dist" creates three PCRE tarballs, in tar.gz, tar.bz2, and
404    zip formats. However, if you have modified any of the man page sources in the
405    doc directory, you should first run the PrepareRelease script. This re-creates
406    the .txt and HTML forms of the documentation from the man pages.
