NAME

qgrep - grep in ebuilds  

SYNOPSIS

qgrep [opts] <expr> [pkg ...]  

DESCRIPTION

qgrep searches for a given expression in all ebuilds of the current portage tree and defined additional overlays. Optionally the search is in all eclasses, or just in the ebuilds that are currently installed. To narrow the search, multiple targets can be given using atom syntax. In particular, the trailing slash (/) syntax can be used to match an entire category. See also qatom(1).  

OPTIONS

-I, --invert-match
Select no-matching lines.
-i, --ignore-case
Ignore case distinctions.
-N, --atom-name
Print the atom instead of filename for each match.
-c, --count
Only print a count of matching lines per FILE.
-l, --list
Only print FILE names containing matches.
-L, --invert-list
Only print FILE names containing no match.
-e, --regexp
Use PATTERN as a regular expression.
-x, --extended
Use PATTERN as an extended regular expression.
-J, --installed

-E, --eclass

-s, --skip-comments

-R, --repo

-S <arg>, --skip <arg>
Skip lines matching <arg>.
-B <arg>, --before <arg>

-A <arg>, --after <arg>
Print <arg> lines of trailing context.
--root <arg>
Set the ROOT env var.
-v, --verbose
Prefix each matching line with filename (like -H). When this option is given multiple times, also linenumbers are printed.
-q, --quiet
Do not prefix each match with filename.
-C, --nocolor
Don't output color.
