NAME

       cgrep - like grep(1) over all indexed files

SYNOPSIS

       cgrep [-c] [-h] [-i] [-l] [-n] regexp [ file...  ]

DESCRIPTION

       Cgrep behaves like grep, searching for regexp, an RE2 (nearly PCRE) regular expression.

       The  -c,  -h,  -i,  -l,  and  -n flags are as in grep, although note that as per Go's flag
       parsing convention, they cannot be combined: the option pair -i -n cannot  be  abbreviated
       to -in.

OPTIONS

       -c     Suppress  normal  output;  instead  print  a count of matching lines for each input
              file.

       -h     Suppress the prefixing of file names on output.

       -i     Ignore case distinctions in both the regexp and the input files.

       -l     Suppress normal output; instead print the name of each input file from which output
              would normally have been printed.

       -n     Prefix each line of output with the 1-based line number within its input file.

ENVIRONMENT

       Cgrep  uses  the  index  stored  in  $CSEARCHINDEX or, if that variable is unset or empty,
       $HOME/.csearchindex.

SEE ALSO

       cindex(1), csearch(1), grep(1).
