NAME
+ +
+ + look – find lines in a sorted list
+ +
+

SYNOPSIS
+ +
+ + look [ −dfnixtc ] [ string ] [ file ]
+ +
+

DESCRIPTION
+ +
+ + Look consults a sorted file and prints all lines that begin with + string. It uses binary search. +
+ + The following options are recognized. Options dfnt affect comparisons + as in sort(1).
+ −i    Interactive. There is no string argument; instead look takes + lines from the standard input as strings to be looked up.
+ −x    Exact. Print only lines of the file whose key matches string + exactly.
+ −d    ‘Directory’ order: only letters, digits, tabs and blanks participate + in comparisons.
+ −f    Fold. Upper case letters compare equal to lower case.
+ −n    Numeric comparison with initial string of digits, optional minus + sign, and optional decimal point.
+ −t[c]Character c terminates the sort key in the file. By default, + tab terminates the key. If c is missing the entire line comprises + the key. +
+ + If no file is specified, /lib/words is assumed, with collating + sequence df.
