Code:
man perlrun

BTW my man perl said where to find those options (in Reference Manual section):
Code:
           perlrun             Perl execution and options

Yet I have a problem that I don't know how to process the data from file to perl command. So in cmd interpreter I tried this:

Code:
for /f "delims=" %a in ('dir /b *.a') do (
pcretest.exe -ln0e '$,="\n";print /(?<=<title>).*?(?=<\/title)/sg' < "%a"
)

It tells me that < was not expected on this place.... Is it OK here or should I ask rather in DOS forum?

Edit: the testing file a.a contains some html text. e.g.:
something.txt
<title>Hello title</title>

I would strongly suggest you to install some Linux distribution (for example in VirtualBox) and do your pattern matching there.

And what about grep? Can it do it for one line? Because grep is my favourite tool but don't know if it can filter out text that is on the line. So just the "Hello title" would stay.

You're hitting the exact problem I just explained to you: quoting in CMD is a horrid botch. If you can install an actual shell to use in your system you'll have a better chance in it.
