For example, +you can list all files that reference a particular `\\#include' +file throughout a huge source hierarchy, search for all the +memos containing references to a project, or automatically +invoke an editor on all files containing references to some +function or variable. Anyone with a large software project to +maintain, or a large set of text files to organize, can benefit +from the ID utilities. + +Although the name `ID' is short for `identifier', the ID +utilities handle more than just identifiers; they also treat +other kinds of tokens, most notably numeric constants, and the +contents of certain character strings.") + (license gpl3+))) |
