SACT(1)

NAME

sact − print current SCCS file editing activity

USAGE

sact file ... 

DESCRIPTION

Sact informs you of any impending deltas to a named SCCS file.  This information is most helpful if you mistakenly executed a get(1) command using the −e option without a subsequent execution of delta(1).  If a directory is named on the command line, sact behaves as though each file in the directory were specified as a named file, except that non-SCCS files and unreadable files are silently ignored.  If you specify a dash (−) instead of a filename, sact reads the standard input, interpreting each line as the name of an SCCS file to be processed. 

The output for each named file consists of five fields separated by spaces.  These fields specify the following information:

Field 1 SID of an existing delta in the SCCS file to which changes will be made to create the new delta. 

Field 2 SID for the new delta to be created. 

Field 3 Log name of the user who will make the delta; i.e., person who executed a get(1) for editing. 

Field 4 Date that the get −e command was executed. 

Field 5 Time that the get −e command was executed. 

DIAGNOSTICS

Use help(1) for explanations.
