advertise pcre-mode more #10

I just discovered pcre-mode and it's awesome! It doesn't work for all methods (e.g ibuffer-do-replace-regexp which tries to be too smart), but it makes emacs much easier to use for me.

You'd mention it in the readme IMHO :)

I love pcre-mode too, in fact, I am addicted to it. I believe the maintainer of ample-regex was talking about it on reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/emacs/comments/28ybi6/ampleregexps_compose_and_reuse_emacs_regular/ It would be really nice if the two could interact somehow.

Thanks for your interest. I will add something to the README shortly. As you can probably tell, pcre-mode is a bit half-baked so I have been reluctant to advertise it, but I guess it is better to have people use it and report the bugs. ;-)
