Everything you require can be found at Google. As you observed, ClamAV is
not in the spyware detection business.

No it can't because I've spent the past two days searching Google going
through thousands of results.
The tool I'm looking for needs to be:
1) Command-line driven.
2) Reputable and well-received.
3) Writes its output to stdout.
4) Has a decent set of command line options.
5) Scans for spyware.
6) Has the option to only detect the existence of spyware, not remove it.
ClamAV is the closest thing I've found...only it doesn't do spyware
detection. I'm asking for detection only, not removal. Since virus
writers and spyware vendors (companies who specialize in writing
spyware) produce binaries, and since signatures can be gathered from
binaries, ClamAV seems like the tool I want. Only problem is that it
doesn't detect spyware vendor binaries. I could care less if someone
made a custom spyware solution for their application as long as the
major vendors are detected.
