See -\fBpcre(3)\fR for a full description of syntax and semantics. - -If no files are specified, \fBpgrep\fR reads the standard input. By default, -each line that matches the pattern is copied to the standard output, and if -there is more than one file, the file name is printed before each line of -output. However, there are options that can change how \fBpgrep\fR behaves. - -Lines are limited to BUFSIZ characters. BUFSIZ is defined in \fB<stdio.h>\fR. -The newline character is removed from the end of each line before it is matched -against the pattern. - - -.SH OPTIONS -.TP 10 -\fB-V\fR -Write the version number of the PCRE library being used to the standard error -stream. -.TP -\fB-c\fR -Do not print individual lines; instead just print a count of the number of -lines that would otherwise have been printed. If several files are given, a -count is printed for each of them. -.TP -\fB-h\fR -Suppress printing of filenames when searching multiple files. -.TP -\fB-i\fR -Ignore upper/lower case distinctions during comparisons. -.TP -\fB-l\fR -Instead of printing lines from the files, just print the names of the files -containing lines that would have been printed. Each file name is printed -once, on a separate line. -.TP -\fB-n\fR -Precede each line by its line number in the file. -.TP -\fB-s\fR -Work silently, that is, display nothing except error messages. -The exit status indicates whether any matches were found. -.TP -\fB-v\fR -Invert the sense of the match, so that lines which do \fInot\fR match the -pattern are now the ones that are found. -.TP -\fB-x\fR -Force the pattern to be anchored (it must start matching at the beginning of -the line) and in addition, require it to match the entire line. This is -equivalent to having ^ and $ characters at the start and end of each -alternative branch in the regular expression. - - -.SH SEE ALSO -\fBpcre(3)\fR, Perl 5 documentation - - -.SH DIAGNOSTICS -Exit status is 0 if any matches were found, 1 if no matches were found, and 2 -for syntax errors or inacessible files (even if matches were found). - - -.SH AUTHOR -Philip Hazel <ph10@cam.ac.uk> -.br -Copyright (c) 1997-1999 University of Cambridge. |
