Manual page for WHAT(1)
what - extract SCCS version information from a file
SYNOPSIS
what
[
-s
]
filename ...
DESCRIPTION
what
searches each
filename
for occurrences of the pattern
@(#)
that the
SCCS
get
command (see
sccs-get.1
substitutes for the
%Z%
ID keyword, and
prints what follows up to a
",
>,
NEWLINE,
\,
or
null
character.
For instance, if the C program in file
program.c
contains
char sccsid[] = "@(#)identification information";
and
program.c
is compiled to yield
program.o
and
a.out,
the command:
-
what program.c program.o a.out
produces:
-
- program.c:
-
identification information
- program.o:
-
identification information
- a.out:
-
identification information
OPTIONS
- -s
-
Stop after the first occurrence of the pattern.
