sact(1)                                                   sact(1)



     NAME
          sact - display who has checked an SCCS file out for editing.

     SYNOPSIS
          sact file ...

     DESCRIPTION
          sact informs the user of any impending deltas to a named
          SCCS file.  This situation occurs when get(1) with the -e
          flag option has been previously executed without a subse-
          quent execution of delta(1).  If a directory is named on the
          command line, sact behaves as though each file in the direc-
          tory were specified as a named file, except that non-SCCS
          files and unreadable files are silently ignored.  If a name
          of - is given, the standard input is read with each line be-
          ing taken as the name of an SCCS file to be processed.

          The output for each named file consists of five fields
          separated by spaces.

             Field 1    specifies the SID of a delta that currently
                        exists in the SCCS file to which changes will
                        be made to make the new delta.

             Field 2    specifies the SID for the new delta to be
                        created.

             Field 3    contains the logname of the user who will make
                        the delta (i.e., executed a get for editing).

             Field 4    contains the date that get -e was executed.

             Field 5    contains the time that get -e was executed.

     EXAMPLES
          If the user has done a get -e, but not a delta to merge the
          new changes, doing a

               sact s.test1.c

          would show:

               1.2 1.3 virginia 82/11/10 16:10:35

          indicating that a new version numbered 1.3 is in the process
          of being made from version numbered 1.2 by user virginia.
          The get -e for the file was done on 82/11/10 at 16:10:35.
