IDENT(1) Unix Programmer's Manual IDENT(1) NNNAAAMMMEEE ident - identify files SSSYYYNNNOOOPPPSSSIIISSS iiidddeeennnttt [ ---qqq ] [ _f_i_l_e ... ] DDDEEESSSCCCRRRIIIPPPTTTIIIOOONNN iiidddeeennnttt searches for all occurrences of the pattern $$$_k_e_y_w_o_r_d:::...$$$ in the named files or, if no file name appears, the standard input. These patterns are normally inserted automatically by the RCS command cccooo(1), but can also be inserted manually. The option ---qqq suppresses the warning given if there are no patterns in a file. iiidddeeennnttt works on text files as well as object files and dumps. For example, if the C program in fff...ccc contains char rcsid[] = "$Id: f.c,v 5.0 1990/08/22 09:09:36 eggert Exp $"; and fff...ccc is compiled into fff...ooo, then the command iiidddeeennnttt fff...ccc fff...ooo will output f.c: $Id: f.c,v 5.0 1990/08/22 09:09:36 eggert Exp $ f.o: $Id: f.c,v 5.0 1990/08/22 09:09:36 eggert Exp $ IIIDDDEEENNNTTTIIIFFFIIICCCAAATTTIIIOOONNN Author: Walter F.
