# Search for package PKG. Both package names and their descriptions are
|
|
# searched for a REGEX match; to avoid this behavior, you may use the `-n`
|
|
# flag, which will only look for a match in the package name.

# Regarding the above, although multiple package names may not be specified, -
|
|
# it's possible to use ERE to easily and quickly get around this limitation.
|
|
# Here, all 3 packages (PKG1, PKG2, and PKG3) will be sought.
