ugrep:tldr:e6306
The command ugrep --file-type=cpp "${search_pattern}"
is using the ugrep
tool to search for a specific pattern in files with a .cpp
extension.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
-
ugrep
: This is the command to invoke theugrep
tool, which stands for "universal grep." It is a powerful alternative to the traditionalgrep
command with additional features. -
--file-type=cpp
: This option specifies the file type to search for. In this case, it is set tocpp
, which indicates C++ files. This helps limit the search to only files with a.cpp
extension. -
"${search_pattern}"
: This is a placeholder for the actual pattern you want to search for. It could be a string or a regular expression. You need to replace${search_pattern}
with your desired pattern enclosed in double quotes.
Overall, this command uses ugrep
to search for a specific pattern, represented by ${search_pattern}
, in files with a .cpp
extension.
