what 1 "2020/08/05" "SunOS 5.11" "User Commands"
NAME
what - extract SCCS version information from a file
SYNOPSIS

 what \c  [ -s "] \c  filename... 
DESCRIPTION

The what utility searches each filename for occurrences of the pattern @(#) that the SCCS get command (see sccs-get (1)) substitutes for the %Z% ID keyword, and prints what follows up to a ", > , NEWLINE , \e , or NULL character.

OPTIONS

The following option is supported:

-s Stops after the first occurrence of the pattern.

0 -V

-version

--version

Prints the what version number string and exists. This option is a \s-1SCHILY\s+1 extension that does not exist in historic sccs implementations.

EXAMPLES

Example 1 Extracting SCCS version information

If a C program in file program.c contains

char sccsid[\|] = "\|@(#)identification information\|";

and program.c is compiled to yield program.o and a.out , the command:

example% \c
 what program.c program.o a.out 

produces:

12n program.c : identification information

program.o : identification information

a.out : identification information

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

See environ (5) for descriptions of the following environment variables that affect the execution of what : LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LC_MESSAGES, and NLSPATH.

BUGS

There is a remote possibility that a spurious occurrence of the ` @(#) ' pattern could be found by what .

AUTHORS
The SCCS suite was originally written by Marc J. Rochkind at Bell Labs in 1972. Release 4.0 of SCCS , introducing new versions of the programs admin (1), get (1), prt (1), and delta (1) was published on February 18, 1977; it introduced the new text based SCCS v4 history file format (previous SCCS releases used a binary history file format). The SCCS suite was later maintained by various people at AT&T and Sun Microsystems. Since 2006, the SCCS suite is maintained by J\*org Schilling.
