However, patterns that are readįrom a file via the -f option may contain binary zeros. Patterns passed from the command line are strings that are terminated by aīinary zero, so cannot contain internal zeros. Option for a means of changing the way binary files are handled. Zero, the test for a binary file is not applied. Newline type is specified as NUL, that is, the line terminator is a binary Is identified as a binary file, and is processed specially. bz2 file, the -line-buffered option isīy default, a file that contains a binary zero byte within the first 1024 bytes If the appropriate support is not present, all files are Has support for one or both of these file types by running it with the You can find out whether your pcre2grep binary Libbz2 to read compressed files whose names end in. It is possible to compile pcre2grep so that it uses libz or The -locale option can be used to override this. Pcre2grep uses the value to set a locale when calling the PCRE2 library. If the LC_ALL or LC_CTYPE environment variable is set, "super" and "man" the output differs from matching with "super|man" when only This pattern finds all occurrences of both An example is the pattern "(super)?(man)?", in Patterns that can match an empty string are accepted, but empty string The same behaviour as GNU grep, which now manages to display earlier matchesįor later patterns (as long as there is no overlap). This behaviour means that the order in which multiple patterns are specifiedĬan affect the output when one of the above options is used. There are multiple patterns, they are all tried on the remainder of the line,īut patterns that follow the one that matched are not tried on the earlier (either shown literally, or as an offset), scanning resumes immediatelyįollowing the match, so that further matches on the same line can be found. line-offsets is used to output only the part of the line that matched Matching substrings, or if -only-matching, -file-offsets, or However, if -colour (or -color) is used to colour the Patterns are tried before the -f patterns.īy default, as soon as one pattern matches a line, no further patterns areĬonsidered. (specified by the use of -e and/or -f), each pattern is applied toĮach line in the order in which they are defined, except that all the -e Patterns can be no longer than 8KiB or BUFSIZ bytes, whichever is the greater.īUFSIZ is defined in. Small, fewer than requested "before" and "after" lines may be output. The block of memory that is actually used is three times the "buffer size", toĪllow for buffering "before" and "after" lines. An error occurs if a line is too long and the buffer can no
Theĭefault values for these parameters can be set when pcre2grep isīuilt if nothing is specified, the defaults are set to 20KiB and 1MiB Long lines, a larger buffer may be needed this is handled by automaticallyĮxtending the buffer, up to the limit specified by -max-buffer-size. That is obtained at the start of processing. The first of these sets the size of buffer The amount of memory used for buffering files that are being scanned isĬontrolled by parameters that can be set by the -buffer-size and What defines a line boundary is controlled by the Particular, the -M option makes it possible to search for strings that However, there are options that can change how pcre2grep behaves. The file name is output at the start of each line, followed by a colon. Pattern is copied to the standard output, and if there is more than one file,
Standard input can also be referenced by a name consisting of a single hyphen. If no files are specified, pcre2grep reads the standard input. Pattern to be matched when neither -e nor -f is present.Ĭonversely, when one or both of these options are used to specify patterns, allĪrguments are treated as path names. The first argument that follows any option settings is treated as the single Pattern contains white space or shell metacharacters.
Quotes can of course be used to delimit patterns on the command lineīecause they are interpreted by the shell, and indeed quotes are required if a Slashes, as is common in Perl scripts), they are interpreted as part of the If you attempt to use delimiters (for example, by surrounding a pattern with Patterns, whether supplied on the command line or in a separate file, are given
