ident \- identify files
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBident\fR [ \fB\-q\fR ] [ file ... ]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Ident
searches the named files or, if no file name appears, the standard input
for all occurrences of the pattern
\fI$keyword:...$\fR, where \fIkeyword\fR is one of
.nf
Author
Date
Header
Id
Locker
Log
Revision
RCSfile
Source
State
.fi
These patterns are normally inserted automatically by the RCS command
.IR co (1L),
but can also be inserted manually. The option \fB\-q\fR suppresses
the warning given if there are no patterns in a file.
.PP
\fIIdent\fR works on text files as well as object files and dumps.
For example, if the C program in file f.c contains
.nf
char rcsid[] = "$\&Header: Header information $";
.fi
and f.c is compiled into f.o, then the command
.nf
ident f.c f.o
will print
f.c:
$\&Header: Header information $
f.o:
$\&Header: Header information $
