- Search for lines beginning with a specific prefix in a specific file:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
`look {{prefix}} {{path/to/file}}`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Case-insensitively search only on alphanumeric characters:
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
`look {{[-f|--ignore-case]}} {{[-d|--alphanum]}} {{prefix}} {{path/to/file}}`

|
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
2025-03-19 19:23:44 -06:00
|
|
|
`look {{[-t|--terminate]}} {{,}}`
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
