Public bug reported:
The cgrep man page says:
CGREP(1) General Commands Manual
CGREP(1)
NAME
cgrep - like grep(1) over all indexed files
SYNOPSIS
cgrep [-c] [-h] [-i] [-l] [-n] regexp [ file... ]
DESCRIPTION
Cgrep behaves like grep, searching for regexp, an RE2 (nearly
PCRE)
regular expression.
Unfortunately, it seems to do no such thing:
~$ cindex corpus/
~$ csearch wibble
/home/nick/corpus/identica.log:18:23 <evan> @brydon You can a) turn off the
privacy flag or b) ignore the public stream or c) @zach can talk to @twibble
for you. Need more deetz.
~$ cgrep wibble
[Time passes...]
~$ cgrep wibble /home/nick/corpus/identica.log
/home/nick/corpus/identica.log:18:23 <evan> @brydon You can a) turn off the
privacy flag or b) ignore the public stream or c) @zach can talk to @twibble
for you. Need more deetz.
It seems that the files are not optional, which is baffling given csearch's
default-everything behaviour and the documented behaviour in the first two
substantive lines of the man page.
Otherwise, cindex/csearch are faboo!
