NAME
       ident - identify files

SYNOPSIS
       ident [-q] [file...]

DESCRIPTION
       ident  searches for all occurrences of the pattern $keyword:...$ in the
       named files or, if no file name appears, the standard input.

       These patterns are normally inserted automatically by the  RCS  command
       co(1),  but can also be inserted manually. The option -q suppresses the
       warning given if there are no patterns in a file.

       ident works on text files as well as object files and dumps. For	 exam‐
       ple, if the C program in f.c contains

       char  rcsid[] = "$Id: ident.1,v 1.1.10.2 1999/08/13 19:58:10 Colin_Wal‐
       ters Exp $";

       and f.c is compiled into f.o, then the command

       # ident	f.c  f.o

       will output

       f.c:
	 $Id: ident.1,v 1.1.10.2 1999/08/13 19:58:10 Colin_Walters Exp $ f.o:
	 $Id: ident.1,v 1.1.10.2 1999/08/13 19:58:10 Colin_Walters Exp $
