STRING arguments are taken from the command line unless standard input is connected to a pipe or a file, in which case they are read from standard input, one STRING per line. It is an error to supply STRING arguments on the command line and on standard input.

2018-12-20 04:02:45 +08:00
Arguments beginning with ``-`` are normally interpreted as switches; ``--`` causes the following arguments not to be treated as switches even if they begin with ``-``. Switches and required arguments are recognized only on the command line.

In general, special characters are special by default, so ``a+`` matches one or more "a"s, while ``a\+`` matches an "a" and then a "+". ``(a+)`` matches one or more "a"s in a capturing group (``(?:XXXX)`` denotes a non-capturing group). For the replacement parameter of ``replace``, ``$n`` refers to the n-th group of the match. In the match parameter, ``\n`` (e.g. ``\1``) refers back to groups.

docs/string: Add paragraph on comparison with unix tools [ci skip]
2019-04-02 18:46:23 +08:00
Comparison to other tools
-------------------------
Most operations ``string`` supports can also be done by external tools. Some of these include ``grep``, ``sed`` and ``cut``.
If you are familiar with these, it is useful to know how ``string`` differs from them.
In contrast to these classics, ``string`` reads input either from stdin or as arguments. ``string`` also does not deal with files, so it requires redirections to be used with them.
Add individual documentation pages for string's subcommands This adds string-x.rst for each subcommand x of string. The main page (string.rst) is not changed, except that examples are shown directly after each subcommand. The subcommand sections in string.rst are created by textual inclusion of parts of the string-x.rst files. Subcommand man pages can be viewed with either of: ``` man string collect man string-collect string collect <press F1 or Alt-h> string collect -h ``` While `string -h ...` still prints the full help. Closes #5968
2019-10-27 17:56:24 +08:00
In contrast to ``grep``, ``string``\ s `match` defaults to glob-mode, while `replace` defaults to literal matching. If set to regex-mode, they use PCRE regular expressions, which is comparable to ``grep``\ s `-P` option. `match` defaults to printing just the match, which is like ``grep`` with `-o` (use `--entire` to enable grep-like behavior).

2019-04-02 18:46:23 +08:00
Like ``sed``\ s `s/` command, ``string replace`` still prints strings that don't match. ``sed``\ s `-n` in combination with a `/p` modifier or command is like ``string replace -f``.
