$file-template(5)

NAME

$file-template - Regular expression file search string

SYNOPSIS

$file-template "string"; Default is ""

DESCRIPTION

$file-template defines a regular expression search string used to identify a file in the grep(3) and compile(3) buffers. The format of the string is the same as magic mode search strings (see search-forward(2)).

EXAMPLE

A UNIX file name may be considered to contain any ASCII character except a space or a ':' (used as a divider in many programs). Thus $file-template should be:

set-variable $file-template "[!-9;-z]+" 

This will correctly identify "foo.c" in the following example.

foo.c: 45:      printf("hello world\n") ; 

SEE ALSO

$line-template(5), compile(3), get-next-line(2), grep(3), search-forward(2).
