NAME

6       nymerge - tool to update and merge specialized-format patches
7

SYNOPSIS

9       nymerge merge old new options [ print ] [ .go ]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       nymerge  is  a  tool in the Nypatchy suite of programs for working with
13       Patchy Master Files (PAM files); see nypatchy(1).  Specifically, it can
14       update  a  PAM  file old with a new version number and date/time stamp,
15       optionally also merging in updated source code from a separate PAM file
16       merge,  and  saving the result to file new.  The default file extension
17       of these three files is presumed to be ".car".
18

USAGE

20       The merge file merge may be replaced with "-" if there  is  nothing  to
21       merge.  print is the file to which informational output should be writ‐
22       ten (the default is standard output  if  omitted),  and  options  is  a
23       sequence of single-character flags.
24
25       The  command  should  be ended with ".go" unless one wants to enter the
26       Nypatchy interactive shell.
27

OPTIONS

29       Note that options should be given as a single string of characters with
30       no  space  separation and no use of the - character (except that it can
31       be used in place of the options  field  if  no  options  are  desired).
32       Alphabetic options are not case-sensitive.
33
34       F      Update only the first PAM file title.
35
36       H      Print help information only.
37
38       P      Log only the patch names, not the decks.
39
40       Q      "quick" - Do not log printing of patch or deck names.
41
42       U      Update version/date/time on all PAM titles found on the file.
43
44       +      Inhibit the initial page-eject.
