gid - Query ID database and report results.
SYNOPSIS
gid [OPTION]... PATTERN...
DESCRIPTION
Query ID database and report results. By default, output consists of multiple lines, each line containing the matched identifier followed
by the list of file names in which it occurs.
-f, --file=FILE
file name of ID database
-i, --ignore-case
match PATTERN case insensitively
-l, --literal
match PATTERN as a literal string
-r, --regexp
match PATTERN as a regular expression
-w, --word
match PATTERN as a delimited word
-s, --substring
match PATTERN as a substring
Note: If PATTERN contains extended regular expression metacharacters, it is interpreted as a regular expression substring. Other-
wise, PATTERN is interpreted as a literal word.
-k, --key=STYLE
STYLE is one of `token', `pattern' or `none'
-R, --result=STYLE
STYLE is one of `filenames', `grep', `edit' or `none'
-S, --separator=STYLE
STYLE is one of `braces', `space' or `newline' and only applies to file names when `--result=filenames'
The above STYLE options control how query results are presented. Defaults are --key=token --result=filenames --separator=space
-F, --frequency=FREQ
find tokens that occur FREQ times, where FREQ is a range expressed as `N..M'. If N is omitted, it defaults to 1, if M is omitted it
defaults to MAX_USHRT

find tokens whose names are ambiguous for LEN chars
-x, --hex
only find numbers expressed as hexadecimal
-d, --decimal
