The ident utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
Examples
Given the following source code in file foo.c:
#include stdio.h
static char const rcsid[] =
"$Id: foo.c,v 1.2 2005/11/18 09:34:51 xsa Exp $";
int
main(void) {
printf("%s\n", rcsid);
return (0);
}
Compile it and run ident:
$ ident foo.c foo.o
foo.c:
$Id: foo.c,v 1.2 2005/11/18 09:34:51 xsa Exp $
foo.o:
$Id: foo.c,v 1.2 2005/11/18 09:34:51 xsa Exp $
