Outputs:

Find in jar with argument '--J':

Through '.classpath' file and find in jar and chinese output:

Shell offen accept UTF-8 ouput, so you can add this argument:

-o UTF-8

Find all java.lang.Long.intValue() and int intValue = (int) longValue:

finding --J --c -ff ".jar$" -ff '.class$' 'java/lang/Long.intValue'

finding --J --c -ff ".jar$" -ff '.class$' 'L2I'
