Taged Strings

Long option names may also be used with QTgrep. Long options are signaled by doubling the option flag, "--". the long option then follows the long option flag.

The following long options are available. The corresponding short single letter option is also indicated:

Those indicated with an asteric, '*', can be used before each input file.

NUM == indicates that an integer numeric should be used
(xx|yy) == indicates that one of the strings indicated should be used

Long options with no short option alternative:

Long options which may be specified with each input file:

--line-buffered=(on\|off)	This option will flush the output buffer after each line write
--byte-offset=(on\|off\|hex)	Output byte count to beginning of record. The byte offset is suffixed with 'o' to indicate Offset. For context lines the 'o' is followed by a hyphen, '-', and for match lines the 'o' is follwed by a colon, ':'. If 'hex' is specified, then the byte offset is output in hexadecimal and the 'o' is replaced with 'x'.
--ANSI-match-foreground=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-match-background=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-normal-foreground=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-normal-background=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-filename-foreground=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-filename-background=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-end-foreground=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option
--ANSI-end-background=	See the help panel on the configuration file for information on specifying the values for the Long Option

Long options which may be specified only before first input file:

--help	Display the help screen
--label=NAME	This option will use 'NAME' for the standard input filename.
--files-with-matches=(on\|off)	This option will print the filename of files which have a pattern match. Scanning stops on first match. This option is incompatible with the following options: CVZckorz
--files-without-match=(on\|off)	This option will print the filename of files which do not have a pattern match. Scanning stops on first match. This option is incompatible with the following options: CVZckorz
