DESCRIPTION

37       The cidcall tool displays the cidcall.log file in one of three
38       different formats: raw, human readable and delimited.
39
40       The default is to display BLK, CID, HUP, MWI, OUT, PID, PUT, RID and
41       WID lines in a human readable format.
42
43   Options
44       -h, --help
45              Displays the help message and exits.
46
47       -m, --man
48              Displays the manual page and exits.
49
50       -D, --debug
51              Debug mode. Always enabled, reserved for future use.
52
53       -v, --verbose <1-9>
54              Output information while processing is occurring.  Set the level
55              to a higher number for more information.  Levels range from 1 to
56              9, but not all levels are used.
57
58              Default: verbose = 1
59
60       -V, --version
61              Displays the version and exits.
62
63       -f <0-2>, --format <0-2>
64              Determines the output format used.
65
66              Output format 0 displays the call log file as-is. All other
67              options are ignored.
68
69              Output format 1 displays the call log in human readable text.
70
71              Output format 2 displays the call log with field delimiters for
72              easy parsing by another program.  Uses options -d|--delimiter
73              and -1|--strip-one.
74
75              The default output format is 1 (human readable).
76
77       -d <text>, --delimiter <text>
78              Used when output format is 2 (delimited). Fields will be
79              delimited by <text>.
80
81              For pipe-delimited output, surround the pipe symbol with single
82              or double quotes: '|' or "|".
83
84              For tab-delimited output, specify only the letter "t".
85
86              For comma-delimited output, fields containing an embedded comma
87              will automatically be surrounded by double-quotes.
88
89              Default delimiter is a comma (",").
90
91       -l, --list-years
92              Lists all the yearly call logs.
93
94       -1, --strip-one
95              Used when output format is 2 (delimited). If a number is exactly
96              11 digits and it begins with "1", strip the "1" before
97              outputting it. This is to facilitate consistent sorting of the
98              output for 10 digit numbers.
99
100              If the leading "1" is stripped, the "Exception" column will so
101              indicate.
102
103       -i, --lineid <text>
104              Output only those lines where the lineid matches <text>.
105
106       -a, --all-types
107              Equivalent to typing --BLK, --CID, --END, --HUP, --MSG, --MWI,
108              --NOT, --OUT, --PID, --PUT, --RID and --WID on the command line.
109
110       -B, --BLK
111              Displays BLK lines (blocked calls) in the call file.
112
113       -C, --CID
114              Displays CID lines (incoming calls) in the call file.
115
116       -E, --END
117              Displays END lines (gateway end of call) in the call file.
118
119       -H, --HUP
120              Displays HUP lines (terminated calls) in the call file.
121
122       -M, --MSG
123              Displays MSG lines (messages) in the call file.
124
125       --MWI  Displays MWI lines (voicemail message waiting) in the call file.
126
127              Note: There is no short option for --MWI.
128
129       -N, --NOT
130              Displays NOT lines (smartphone note (message)) in the call file.
131
132       -O, --OUT
133              Displays OUT lines (outgoing calls) in the call file.
134
135       -P, --PID
136              Displays PID lines (smartphone Caller ID) in the call file.
137
138       -p, --PUT
139              Displays PID lines (smartphone outgoing calls) in the call file.
140
141       -R, --RID
142              Displays RID lines (ringback calls) in the call file.
143
144       -W, --WID
145              Displays WID lines ("call waiting" calls) in the call file.
146
147       -y, --yearlog <4 digit year>
148              Obtains data from $HOME/NCID/log/cidcall-<year>.log instead of
149              the default.  This overrides a call log given on the command
150              line.
151
152   Arguments
153       cidlog The NCID call file.
154
155              Default: /var/log/cidcall.log
156

EXAMPLES

158       Output as tab-delimited, changing 11-digit numbers beginning with "1"
159       to be 10-digits:
160         cidcall -f 2 -d t -1
161
162       Output as pipe-delimited, changing 11-digit numbers beginning with "1"
163       to be 10-digits, then sorting numerically on the phone number column:
164         cidcall -f 2 -d '|' -1 | sort -t '|' -k4,4 -n
