28 An "ID database" is a binary file containing a list of file
29 names, a list of tokens, and a sparse matrix indicating which
30 tokens appear in which files.
31
32 With this database and some tools to query it, many
33 text-searching tasks become simpler and faster. For example,
34 you can list all files that reference a particular `\#include'
35 file throughout a huge source hierarchy, search for all the
36 memos containing references to a project, or automatically
37 invoke an editor on all files containing references to some
38 function or variable. Anyone with a large software project to
39 maintain, or a large set of text files to organize, can benefit
40 from the ID utilities.
41
42 Although the name `ID' is short for `identifier', the ID
43 utilities handle more than just identifiers; they also treat
44 other kinds of tokens, most notably numeric constants, and the
45 contents of certain character strings.
