.TH DESCU 8 "System Administration" "7 May 1995" "Version 1.0.2"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
descu \- the describe(1) source updater
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.BR descu " [" -hV ]
|
|
.I sourcefile
|
|
.I patchfile1
|
|
[
|
|
.IR patchfile2 " ..."
|
|
]
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.BR descu
|
|
updates the describe source file
|
|
.I sourcefile
|
|
by applying the new and updated records from the \fIpatchfile\fRs
|
|
and prints the result to standard output.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.IR Patchfile s
|
|
are just one or more describe source entries as defined in
|
|
.BR descc (8).
|
|
(They have nothing to do with
|
|
.BR patch (1).)
|
|
.LP
|
|
.IR Patchfile s
|
|
are assumed to contain at most one entry (in all listed
|
|
.IR patchfile s)
|
|
for a given program, keyed on the
|
|
.BR Name:
|
|
field. If an entry in
|
|
.IR patchfile
|
|
is already in
|
|
.IR sourcefile ,
|
|
it replaces the original; otherwise the entry is appended. In both
|
|
cases, the output is sorted lexicographically (ignoring case), based on
|
|
the
|
|
.BR Name:
|
|
field.
|
|
.LP
|
|
.BR descu
|
|
will create the file
|
|
.B descu.rej
|
|
in the current directory. This contains all records that were removed
|
|
from
|
|
.IR sourcefile .
