NAME
nigrep - search for a regular expression in the NetInfo hierarchy
SYNOPSIS
nigrep expression [ -t ] domain [ directory ... ]
DESCRIPTION
nigrep searches through the specified domain argument for a regular
expression. It searches the domain's directory hierarchy depth-first
starting from the root directory. It can also start from each directory
specified on the command line.
The domain argument can be specified as an absolute or relative domain
name. The domain argument can be specified as a network address or
hostname and tag if preceded by the -t option.
On output, nigrep prints the directory ID number of the directory which
contains the regular expression, and the property key and values where
it was found. A line is printed for each property that contains the
regular expression.
