sact(1)                                                   sact(1)



NAME
     sact - displays who has checked a Source Code Control System
     (SCCS) file out for editing

SYNOPSIS
     sact [-] file...

ARGUMENTS
     -    Reads the standard input with each line being taken as
          the name of an SCCS file to be processed.

     file Specifies the SCCS file that is checked out.

DESCRIPTION
     sact informs you of any impending deltas to a named SCCS
     file.  This situation occurs when get with the -e option has
     been previously executed without a subsequent execution of
     delta.  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.

     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 login name of the user who will
                    make the delta (that is, the user who
                    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 issued a get -e command, but not a delta
     command, to merge the new changes, issuing

        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.
