5ugrep: a sample program demonstrating the use of ICU regular expression API.
6
7usage:   ugrep [options] pattern [file ...]
8
9   --help                 Output a brief help message
10   -n,  --line-number     Prefix each line of output with the line number within its input file.
11   -V,  --version         Output the program version number
12
13
14The program searches for the specified regular expression in each of the
15specified files, and outputs each matching line.
16
17Input files are in the system default (locale dependent) encoding, unless they
18begin with a BOM, in which case they are assumed to be in the UTF encoding
19specified by the BOM.  Program output is always in the system's default
208 bit code page.

30To Build ugrep on Windows
31    1.  Install and build ICU
32    2.  In MSVC, open the workspace file icu\samples\ugrep\ugrep.sln
33    3.  Choose a Debug or Release build.
34    4.  Build.
35
36To Run on Windows
37    1.  Start a command shell window
38    2.  Add ICU's bin directory to the path, e.g.
39            set PATH=c:\icu\bin;%PATH%
40        (Use the path to where ever ICU is on your system.)
41    3.  cd into the ugrep directory, e.g.
42            cd c:\icu\source\samples\ugrep\debug
43    4.  Run it
44            ugrep ...
45
46
47To Build on Unixes
48    1.  Build ICU.  Specify an ICU install directory when running configure,
49        using the --prefix option.  The steps to build ICU will look something
50        like this:
51           cd <icu directory>/source
52           runConfigureICU <platform-name> --prefix <icu install directory> [other options]
53           gmake all
54
55    2.  Install ICU,
56           gmake install
57
58    3.  Build the sample
59           Put the install directory containing icu-config on the $PATH.
60               This will generally be <icu install directory>/bin
61           cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ugrep
62           gmake
63
64 To Run on Unixes
65           cd <icu directory>/source/samples/ugrep
66
67           export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<icu install directory>/lib:.:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
68           ugrep ...
69
70
71 Note:  The name of the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is different on some systems.
72        If in doubt, run the sample using "gmake check", and note the name of
73        the variable that is used there.  LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the correct name
74        for Linux and Solaris.
