TH SRC 1
SH NAME
src \- find source code for executable
SH SYNOPSIS
B src
[
B -n
]
[
B -s
I symbol
]
I file
B ...
SH DESCRIPTION
I Src
examines the named
I files
to find the corresponding source code, which is then sent to the editor using
B B
(see
IR sam (1)).
If
I file
is an
IR rc (1)
script, the source is the file itself.
If
I file
is an executable, the source is defined to be the single file containing the
definition of
B main
and
I src
will point the editor at the line that begins the definition.
I Src
uses
IR db (1)
to extract the symbol table information that identifies the source.
PP
I Src
looks for each
I file
in the current directory, in
BR /bin ,
and in the subdirectories of
BR /bin ,
in that order.
PP
The
B -n
flag causes
B src
to print the file name but not send it to the editor.
The
B -s
flag identifies a
I symbol
other than
B main
to locate.
SH EXAMPLES
Find the source to the
B main
routine in
BR /bin/ed :
IP
EX
src ed
EE
PP
Find the source for
BR strcmp :
IP
EX
src -s strcmp rc
EE
SH SOURCE
B /rc/bin/src
