106 nil means add only those index entries matching REGEXP, a string
107 means prepend string to the first word of all index entries.
108 PREFIX and SUFFIX are parts of a regular expression. If one of

114 expression for guessing the default help item at point. Fuzzy
115 regular expressions like \"[_a-zA-Z0-9]+\" do a better job if
116 there are no clear delimiters; do not try to write too complex
117 expressions. PARSE-RULE defaults to REGEXP.
