| (ID) IDentity |
ID - select arguement identification definition(s) and output
(ID) IDentify - The concept of IDentify is similar to "IQ" but
instead of looking for a word-pattern match it looks for
the relationship(s) of its arguement to the VIC first.
Then uses the relationship-word-pattern in the definition
search (as is done in IQ). This command can be considered
similiar to the Class/Actions of Csh but does not work on
just files. It is also possible to cause ID to compare
its arguement to non-VIC elements, such as external shell
variables, system information, etc. This is done in the
ID file (as named and changeable in the PK file).
Because it is impossible to know or build in all possible
relationships checking, the ID file can contain the
program name and any arguements it needs to do such
non-VIC comparison. This means ID can do more than a
relationship comparison (through other programs) related
search. This is also where the VIC variable tag-words can
be of use.
Other than the above, ID performs the same
processing sequence that IQ does. Of course, files and
other IQ references (made in the above description of
IQ) are ID, not IQ. And the format of comparison program
names, program arguements, and the relationship-word-
pattern, to use if successful, follows the following format.
Column one contains a single colon, space, relationship-
word-pattern followed by a space, single colon, space,
command and arguements to use for the relationship test.
The IQ and ID command (after determining relationship(s))
ignore lines starting with a single colon.

ID
Test word for being a var, var-contents, alias, alias
contents, IQ word, directory, file. If file will try to
determine type of file. executes commands based upon
findings (wordf).
Tests what the word is in relationship to the related AI
system.
ID returns PK ID line.
ID -? help on ID
ID -id returns ID search path based on
KEychain.
ID -id word returns ID search path based on
KEychain and wordf
ID word Searches for wordf using KEychain
access and executes line_contents
commands based on KEychain teeth
and OP set.
ID -c wordf Cancels word/line_contents from
file(s) using KEychain access.
ID -c wordf line_contents Creates or Changes word/line_contents
using KE keychain access for search.
If Creating it will add to the end of
path - end of path is end if first
file.
