Hello,

In OpenFOAM Foundation versions (openfoam6 and above) there is a utility called foamInfo. This is utility is very useful to quickly find informations about utilities, solvers, boundary conditions, etc.

Here is its description:

Code:
Usage: foamInfo [OPTIONS] <name>
options:
  -all     | -a        list all tutorials that use <name> (otherwise maximum 10)
  -browser | -b <name> output C++ source guide web page with specified browser,
                       e.g. foamInfo -browser "firefox"
  -help    | -h        print the usage
  -keyword | -k        uses <name> as a keyword, rather than an exact match
  -web     | -w        output C++ source guide web page with the browser
                       specified in the global controlDict file

Prints the following for an application, a script, or a model
(including boundary conditions, function objects and fvOptions).
- File: the location of the relevant source code header file;
- Description details from the header file;
- Usage details from the header file;
- Examples: a list of relevant cases from the tutorials directory.

By default, finds a case-sensitive match to <name>; otherwise, a
case-insensitive match; otherwise, looks for a broader keyword match
with "-keyword | -k" option.

Examples:
  foamInfo simpleFoam
  foamInfo turbulentIntensityKineticEnergyInlet
  foamInfo fixedTemperatureConstraint
  foamInfo surfaces
  foamInfo foamNewBC
  foamInfo wallFunction
  foamInfo kEpsilon
  foamInfo -k kEpsilon
  foamInfo fixedValue
  foamInfo -k fixedValue
  foamInfo -k contactAngle
But I regularly use OpenFOAM ESI versions and currently I miss this utility. In fact, I don't know if it already exist under another name or not available.

To sum up:

Is there an equivalent utility similar to foamInfo for OpenFOAM ESI versions?

Thank you
