NAME

prt_comment − Select commentary from "sccs prt" by comment text

SYNOPSIS

prt_comment [-v] regexp [file ...]

DESCRIPTION

This filter picks through the output of "sccs prt" or "since", leaving only that delta commentary for which the comment matches regexp.  The regular expression semantics are those of perl (egrep++).  The regular expression is not anchored, and the search is case-insensitive. 

If -v is specified, only that commentary for which the comment does not match regexp is output. 

The "sccs prt" output is read from the specified files, unless none are specified, in which case it is read from stdin. 

EXAMPLE

The following pipeline displays the delta commentary since 10/22/93 containing neither the text "KBI" nor "DDI", for all files under sccs control in the current working directory:

since 931022 | prt_comment -v ’KBI|DDI’ | prt_brief
