.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fBugrep\fR utility searches any given input files, selecting lines that
match one or more patterns.  By default, a pattern matches an input line if the
regular expression (RE) matches the input line.  A pattern matches multiple
input lines if the RE in the pattern matches one or more newlines in the input.
An empty pattern matches every line.  Each input line that matches at least one
of the patterns is written to the standard output.
.PP
The \fBug\fR command is intended for interactive searching, using a .ugrep
configuration file located in the working directory or home directory, see
CONFIGURATION.  \fBug\fR is equivalent to \fBugrep --config --pretty --sort\fR
to load a .ugrep file, enhance the terminal output, and sort files by name.
.PP
The \fBugrep+\fR and \fBug+\fR commands are the same as the \fBugrep\fR and
\fBug\fR commands, but also use filters to search pdfs, documents, e-books,
and image metadata, when the corresponding filter tools are installed.
.PP
A list of matching files is produced with option \fB-l\fR
(\fB--files-with-matches\fR).  Option \fB-c\fR (\fB--count\fR) counts the
number of matching lines.  Combine with option \fB-o\fR to count the total
number of matches.  Combine with option \fB-m1,\fR (\fB--min-count=1\fR) to
omit zero matches.
.PP
The default pattern syntax is an extended form of the POSIX ERE syntax, same as
option \fB-E\fR (\fB--extended-regexp\fR).  Try \fBug --help regex\fR for help
with pattern syntax and how to use logical connectives to specify Boolean
search queries with option \fB-%\fR (\fB--bool\fR).  Options \fB-F\fR
(\fB--fixed-strings\fR), \fB-G\fR (\fB--basic-regexp\fR) and \fB-P\fR
(\fB--perl-regexp\fR) specify other pattern syntaxes.
.PP
Option \fB-i\fR (\fB--ignore-case\fR) ignores case in ASCII patterns.  Combine
with option \fB-P\fR for case-insensitive Unicode matching.  Option \fB-j\fR
(\fB--smart-case\fR) enables \fB-i\fR only if the search patterns are specified
in lower case.
.PP
Fuzzy (approximate) search is specified with option \fB-Z\fR (\fB--fuzzy\fR)
with an optional argument to control character insertions, deletions, and/or
substitutions.  Try \fBug --help fuzzy\fR for help with fuzzy search.
.PP
Note that pattern `.' matches any non-newline character.  Pattern `\\n' matches
a newline character.  Multiple lines may be matched with patterns that match
one or more newline characters.
.PP
Empty-matching patterns do not match all lines.  For example, the pattern `a*'
will match one or more a's.  The single exception to this rule is the empty
pattern "", which matches all lines.  Option \fB-Y\fR forces empty matches for
compatibility with other grep tools.  
.PP
Option \fB-f\fR \fIFILE\fR matches patterns specified in \fIFILE\fR.
.PP
By default Unicode patterns are matched.  Option \fB-U\fR (\fB--binary\fR)
disables Unicode matching for ASCII and binary pattern matching.  Non-Unicode
matching is generally more efficient.
.PP
\fBugrep\fR accepts input of various encoding formats and normalizes the output
to UTF-8.  When a UTF byte order mark is present in the input, the input is
automatically normalized.  An input encoding format may be specified with
option \fB--encoding\fR.
.PP
If no \fIFILE\fR arguments are specified and standard input is read from a
terminal, recursive searches are performed as if \fB-r\fR is specified.  To
force reading from standard input, specify `-' as a \fIFILE\fR argument.
.PP
Directories specified as \fIFILE\fR arguments are searched without recursing
deeper into subdirectories, unless \fB-R\fR, \fB-r\fR, or \fB-2\fR...\fB-9\fR
is specified to search subdirectories recursively (up to the specified depth.)
.PP
Option \fB-I\fR (\fB--ignore-binary\fR) ignores binary files.  A binary file is
a file with non-text content.  A file with zero bytes or invalid UTF formatting
is considered binary.
.PP
Hidden files and directories are ignored in recursive searches.  Option
\fB-.\fR (\fB--hidden\fR) includes hidden files and directories in recursive
searches.
.PP
To match the names of files to search and the names of directories to recurse,
one or more of the following options may be specified.  Option \fB-O\fR
specifies one or more filename extensions to match.  Option \fB-t\fR specifies
one or more file types to search (\fB-t list\fR outputs a list of types.)
Option \fB-g\fR specifies a gitignore-style glob pattern to match filenames.
Option \fB--ignore-files\fR specifies a file with gitignore-style globs to
ignore directories and files.  Try \fBug --help globs\fR for help with filename
and directory name matching.  See also section GLOBBING.
.PP
Compressed files and archives are searched with option \fB-z\fR
(\fB--decompress\fR).  When used with option \fB--zmax\fR=\fINUM\fR, searches
the contents of compressed files and archives stored within archives up to
\fINUM\fR levels.
.PP
A query terminal user interface (TUI) is opened with \fB-Q\fR (\fB--query\fR)
to interactively specify search patterns and view search results.  Note that a
\fIPATTERN\fR argument cannot be specified in this case.  To specify one or
more patterns with \fB-Q\fR to start searching, use \fB-e PATTERN\fR.
.PP
Output to a terminal for viewing is enhanced with \fB--pretty\fR, which is
enabled by default with the \fBug\fR command.
.PP
A terminal output pager is enabled with \fB--pager\fR.
.PP
Customized output is produced with option \fB--format\fR or \fB--replace\fR.
Try \fBug --help format\fR for help with custom formatting of the output.
Predefined formats include CSV with option \fB--csv\fR, JSON with option
\fB--json\fR, and XML with option \fB--xml\fR.  Hexdumps are output with option
\fB-X\fR (\fB--hex\fR) or with option \fB--hexdump\fR to customize hexdumps.
See also section FORMAT.
.PP
A `--' signals the end of options; the rest of the parameters are \fIFILE\fR
arguments, allowing filenames to begin with a `-' character.
.PP
Long options may start with `\FB--no-\fR' to disable, when applicable.
.PP
\fBug --help \fIWHAT\fR displays help on options related to \fIWHAT\fR.

.SH "EXIT STATUS"
The \fBugrep\fR utility exits with one of the following values:
.IP 0
One or more lines were selected.
.IP 1
No lines were selected.
.IP >1
An error occurred.
.PP
If \fB-q\fR or \fB--quiet\fR or \fB--silent\fR is used and a line is selected,
the exit status is 0 even if an error occurred.
.SH CONFIGURATION
The \fBug\fR command is intended for context-dependent interactive searching
and is equivalent to the \fBugrep --config --pretty --sort\fR command to load
the default configuration file `.ugrep' when present in the working directory
or in the home directory.
.PP
A configuration file contains `NAME=VALUE' pairs per line, where `NAME` is the
name of a long option (without `--') and `=VALUE' is an argument, which is
optional and may be omitted depending on the option.  Empty lines and lines
starting with a `#' are ignored.
.PP
The \fB--config\fR=\fIFILE\fR option and its abbreviated form
\fB---\fR\fIFILE\fR load the specified configuration file located in the
working directory or, when not found, located in the home directory.  An error
is produced when \fIFILE\fR is not found or cannot be read.
.PP
Command line options are parsed in the following order: the configuration file
is loaded first, followed by the remaining options and arguments on the command
line.
.PP
The \fB--save-config\fR option saves a `.ugrep' configuration file to the
working directory with a subset of the current options.  The
\fB--save-config\fR=\fIFILE\fR option saves the configuration to \fIFILE\fR.
The configuration is written to standard output when \fIFILE\fR is a `-'.
.SH GLOBBING
Globbing is used by options \fB-g\fR, \fB--include\fR, \fB--include-dir\fR,
\fB--include-from\fR, \fB--exclude\fR, \fB--exclude-dir\fR,
\fB--exclude-from\fR and \fB--ignore-files\fR to match pathnames and basenames
in recursive searches.  Glob arguments for these options should be quoted to
prevent shell globbing.
.PP
Globbing supports gitignore syntax and the corresponding matching rules, except
that a glob normally matches files but not directories.  If a glob ends in a
path separator `/', then it matches directories but not files, as if
\fB--include-dir\fR or \fB--exclude-dir\fR is specified.  When a glob contains
a path separator `/', the full pathname is matched.  Otherwise the basename of
a file or directory is matched.  For example, \fB*.h\fR matches foo.h and
bar/foo.h.  \fBbar/*.h\fR matches bar/foo.h but not foo.h and not
bar/bar/foo.h.  Use a leading `/' to force \fB/*.h\fR to match foo.h but not
bar/foo.h.
.PP
When a glob starts with a `^' or a `!' as in \fB-g\fR^\fIGLOB\fR, the match is
negated.  Likewise, a `!' (but not a `^') may be used with globs in the files
specified \fB--include-from\fR, \fB--exclude-from\fR, and \fB--ignore-files\fR
to negate the glob match.  Empty lines or lines starting with a `#' are
ignored.
.PP
\fBGlob Syntax and Conventions\fR
.IP \fB*\fR
Matches anything except /.
.IP \fB?\fR
Matches any one character except /.
.IP \fB[abc-e]\fR

.IP \fB[^abc-e]\fR
Matches one character not a,b,c,d,e,/.
.IP \fB[!abc-e]\fR
Matches one character not a,b,c,d,e,/.
.IP \fB/\fR
When used at the start of a glob, matches if pathname has no /.
When used at the end of a glob, matches directories only.
.IP \fB**/\fR
Matches zero or more directories.
.IP \fB/**\fR
When used at the end of a glob, matches everything after the /.
.IP \fB\e?\fR
Matches a ? or any other character specified after the backslash.
.PP

.PP
Note that exclude glob patterns take priority over include glob patterns when
specified with options -g, --exclude, --exclude-dir, --include and include-dir.
.PP
Glob patterns specified with prefix `!' in any of the files associated with
--include-from, --exclude-from and --ignore-files will negate a previous glob
match.  That is, any matching file or directory excluded by a previous glob
pattern specified in the files associated with --exclude-from or --ignore-file
will become included again.  Likewise, any matching file or directory included
by a previous glob pattern specified in the files associated with
--include-from will become excluded again.
.SH ENVIRONMENT
.IP \fBGREP_PATH\fR
May be used to specify a file path to pattern files.  The file path is used by
option \fB-f\fR to open a pattern file, when the pattern file does not exist.
.IP \fBGREP_COLOR\fR
May be used to specify ANSI SGR parameters to highlight matches when option
\fB--color\fR is used, e.g. 1;35;40 shows pattern matches in bold magenta text
on a black background.  Deprecated in favor of \fBGREP_COLORS\fR, but still
supported.
.IP \fBGREP_COLORS\fR
May be used to specify ANSI SGR parameters to highlight matches and other
attributes when option \fB--color\fR is used.  Its value is a colon-separated
list of ANSI SGR parameters that defaults to
\fBcx=33:mt=1;31:fn=1;35:ln=1;32:cn=1;32:bn=1;32:se=36\fR.  The \fBmt=\fR,
\fBms=\fR, and \fBmc=\fR capabilities of \fBGREP_COLORS\fR take priority over
\fBGREP_COLOR\fR.  Option \fB--colors\fR takes priority over \fBGREP_COLORS\fR.
.SH GREP_COLORS
Colors are specified as string of colon-separated ANSI SGR parameters of the
form `what=substring', where `substring' is a semicolon-separated list of ANSI
SGR codes or `k' (black), `r' (red), `g' (green), `y' (yellow), `b' (blue), `m'
(magenta), `c' (cyan), `w' (white).  Upper case specifies background colors.  A
`+' qualifies a color as bright.  A foreground and a background color may be
combined with one or more font properties `n' (normal), `f' (faint), `h'
(highlight), `i' (invert), `u' (underline).  Substrings may be specified for:
.IP \fBsl=\fR
SGR substring for selected lines.
.IP \fBcx=\fR
SGR substring for context lines.
.IP \fBrv\fR
Swaps the \fBsl=\fR and \fBcx=\fR capabilities when \fB-v\fR is specified.
.IP \fBmt=\fR
SGR substring for matching text in any matching line.
.IP \fBms=\fR
SGR substring for matching text in a selected line.  The substring \fBmt=\fR by
default.
.IP \fBmc=\fR

The separator used by the \fB%F\fR, \fB%H\fR, \fB%N\fR, \fB%K\fR, \fB%B\fR,
\fB%S\fR and \fB%G\fR fields may be changed by preceding the field by
\fB%[\fR\fISEP\fR\fB]$\fR.  When \fB[\fR\fISEP\fR\fB]\fR is not provided, this
reverts the separator to the default separator or the separator specified with
\fB--separator\fR.
.PP
Formatted output is written for each matching pattern, which means that a line
may be output multiple times when patterns match more than once on the same
line.  If field \fB%u\fR is specified anywhere in a format string, matching
lines are output only once, unless option \fB-u\fR, \fB--ungroup\fR is
specified or when more than one line of input matched the search pattern.
.PP
Additional formatting options:
.IP \fB--format-begin\fR=\fIFORMAT\fR
the \fIFORMAT\fR when beginning the search.
.IP \fB--format-open\fR=\fIFORMAT\fR
the \fIFORMAT\fR when opening a file and a match was found.
.IP \fB--format-close\fR=\fIFORMAT\fR
the \fIFORMAT\fR when closing a file and a match was found.
.IP \fB--format-end\fR=\fIFORMAT\fR
the \fIFORMAT\fR when ending the search.
.PP
The context options \fB-A\fR, \fB-B\fR, \fB-C\fR, \fB-y\fR, and display options
\fB--break\fR, \fB--heading\fR, \fB--color\fR, \fB-T\fR, and \fB--null\fR have
no effect on formatted output.
