NAME
      bregex - Bacula's 'regex' engine

SYNOPSIS
     bregex [options] -f <data-file>

DESCRIPTION
     This manual page documents briefly the bregex command.
     This  program  can  be  useful  for testing regex expressions to be applied
     against a list of filenames.

     A summary of options is included below.

     -?     Show version and usage of program.

     -d nn  Set debug level to nn.

     -dt    Print timestamp in debug output

     -f <data-file>
	    The data-file is a filename  that  contains  lines	of  data  to  be
	    matched  (or  not) against one or more patterns. When the program is
	    run, it will prompt you for a regular expression pattern, then apply
	    it one line at a time against the data in the file. Each  line  that
	    matches  will  be printed preceded by its line number. You will then
	    be prompted again for another pattern.

     -n     Print lines that do not match

     -l     Suppress lines numbers.
