DESCRIPTION

27       The prs utility shall write to standard output parts or all of an  SCCS
28       file in a user-supplied format.
29

OPTIONS

31       The  prs  utility  shall  conform  to  the  Base  Definitions volume of
32       IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax  Guidelines,  except
33       that  the  -r  option  has  an  optional option-argument. This optional
34       option-argument cannot be presented as a separate argument. The follow‐
35       ing options shall be supported:
36
37       -d  dataspec
38              Specify  the  output data specification. The dataspec shall be a
39              string consisting of SCCS file data keywords (see Data  Keywords
40              ) interspersed with optional user-supplied text.
41
42       -r[SID]
43              Specify  the  SCCS  identification  string  (SID) of a delta for
44              which information is desired. If no SID option-argument is spec‐
45              ified,  the  SID  of  the  most  recently created delta shall be
46              assumed.
47
48       -e     Request information for all  deltas  created  earlier  than  and
49              including  the  delta  designated via the -r option or the date-
50              time given by the -c option.
51
52       -l     Request information  for  all  deltas  created  later  than  and
53              including  the  delta  designated via the -r option or the date-
54              time given by the -c option.
55
56       -c  cutoff
57              Indicate the cutoff date-time, in the form:
58
59
60              YY[MM[DD[HH[MM[SS]]]]]
61
62       For the YY component, values in the range [69,99] shall refer to  years
63       1969  to 1999 inclusive, and values in the range [00,68] shall refer to
64       years 2000 to 2068 inclusive.
65
66       Note:
67              It is expected that in a future version of  IEEE Std 1003.1-2001
68              the  default  century  inferred from a 2-digit year will change.
69              (This would apply to all commands accepting a  2-digit  year  as
70              input.)
71
72
73       No changes (deltas) to the SCCS file that were created after the speci‐
74       fied cutoff date-time shall be included in the  output.  Units  omitted
75       from  the date-time default to their maximum possible values; for exam‐
76       ple, -c 7502 is equivalent to -c 750228235959.
77
78       -a     Request writing of information for both removed-that  is,  delta
79              type=  R  (see  rmdel  )-  and existing-that is, delta type= D,-
80              deltas. If the -a  option  is  not  specified,  information  for
81              existing deltas only shall be provided.
82
83

OPERANDS

85       The following operand shall be supported:
86
87       file   A pathname of an existing SCCS file or a directory. If file is a
88              directory, the prs utility shall behave as though each  file  in
89              the  directory  were specified as a named file, except that non-
90              SCCS files (last component of the pathname does not  begin  with
91              s.) and unreadable files shall be silently ignored.
92
93       If  exactly one file operand appears, and it is '-', the standard input
94       shall be read; each line of the standard input shall be taken to be the
95       name  of  an  SCCS file to be processed.  Non-SCCS files and unreadable
96       files shall be silently ignored.
97
98

STDIN

100       The standard input shall be a text file used only when the file operand
101       is  specified  as '-' . Each line of the text file shall be interpreted
102       as an SCCS pathname.
103

INPUT FILES

105       Any SCCS files displayed are files of an unspecified format.
106

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

108       The following environment variables shall affect the execution of prs:
109
110       LANG   Provide a default value for the  internationalization  variables
111              that  are  unset  or  null.  (See the Base Definitions volume of
112              IEEE Std 1003.1-2001, Section  8.2,  Internationalization  Vari‐
113              ables  for the precedence of internationalization variables used
114              to determine the values of locale categories.)
115
116       LC_ALL If set to a non-empty string value, override the values  of  all
117              the other internationalization variables.
118
119       LC_CTYPE
120              Determine  the  locale  for  the  interpretation of sequences of
121              bytes of text data as characters (for  example,  single-byte  as
122              opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments and input files).
123
124       LC_MESSAGES
125              Determine  the  locale  that should be used to affect the format
126              and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error.
127
128       NLSPATH
129              Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of
130              LC_MESSAGES .
131
132

ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS

134       Default.
135

STDOUT

137       The  standard  output shall be a text file whose format is dependent on
138       the data keywords specified with the -d option.
139
140   Data Keywords
141       Data keywords specify which parts of an SCCS file  shall  be  retrieved
142       and  output. All parts of an SCCS file have an associated data keyword.
143       A data keyword may appear in a dataspec multiple times.
144
145       The information written by prs shall consist of:
146
147        1. The user-supplied text
148
149        2. Appropriate values (extracted from the SCCS file)  substituted  for
150           the  recognized  data  keywords  in  the order of appearance in the
151           dataspec
152
153       The format of a data keyword value shall either be simple ( 'S'  ),  in
154       which keyword substitution is direct, or multi-line ( 'M' ).
155
156       User-supplied  text  shall  be any text other than recognized data key‐
157       words.  A <tab> shall be specified by '\t' and <newline> by '\n' . When
158       the -r option is not specified, the default dataspec shall be:
159
160
161              :PN::\n\n
162
163       and the following dataspec shall be used for each selected delta:
