Magic-7.3 Command Reference

#

## identify

Set the use identifier of the selected cell

### Usage:

> identify use_id

> > where use_id is a unique name to identify the cell use.

### Summary:

> The identify command renames cell uses in magic. By default, magic names cell uses with the name of the cell definition followed by an underscore, followed by a unique index number for the cell use in the parent cell. This is merely a convention, and any unique identifier suffices to name the cell use.

### Implementation Notes:

> identify is implemented as a built-in command in magic.
