    NAME
         ident - identify files

    SYNOPSIS
         ident file ...

    DESCRIPTION
         Ident searches the named files for all occurrences of the
         pattern $keyword:...$, where keyword is one of

    	     Author
    	     Date
    	     Header
    	     Locker
    	     Log
    	     Revision
    	     Source
    	     State

         These patterns are normally inserted automatically by the
         RCS command co (1), but can also be inserted manually.

         Ident works on text files as well as object files.  For
         example, if the C program in file f.c contains

    	     char rcsid[] = "$Header:  Header information $";

         and f.c is compiled into f.o, then the command

    	     ident  f.c  f.o

         will print

    	     f.c:
    		     $Header:  Header information $
    	     f.o:
    		     $Header:  Header information $
