CHGREP(1) General Commands Manual CHGREP(1) NAME chgrep - change oldpattern to newpattern SYNOPSIS chgrep [-en/w] [-dhilqrsv] [-t filename] OLDPATTERN NEWPATTERN [file...] DESCRIPTION Chgrep searches the input files (or standard input if no files are named) for oldstring and changes them to newstring. If some file and file.lock ex- ist then chgrep leaves both files unchanged. You can write NEWPATTERN as "NULL" to clear OLDPATTERN, i.e. "chgrep oldstring NULL somefile.c". -d Don't change modification times of altered files. -e Extended-regexp. -h Print the version number of chgrep to standard output. This version number should be included in all bug reports (see below). -i Ignore differences in case at OLDPATTERN. -l Leaves copy of old file unchanged in filename.lock -n Treat <newline> as a regular character. -q Quiet mode (no output at all). -r Read all files under each subdirectory, recursively. -s Simulation mode. -t Use not default file.lock for caching. -v Prints to standard output diagnostic informations. -w Doesn't recognize regexp in OLDPATTERN. This option accelerates the whole process. Incompatible with -e and/or -n. DIAGNOSTICS Normally, exit status is 0 if no errors were found, and 1 if some errors were found. The -v option helps to understand the sense of the exit status. BUGS Email bug reports to bartek@bmk.bz. Be sure to include the word "chgrep" somewhere in the "Subject:" field.
