PARAMETERS

fileA path name of an existing SCCS file or directory. 

If a - (dash) is specified for file, sact reads standard input, and interprets each line as the name of an SCCS file. 

If file is a directory, sact performs its actions on all SCCS files.  If a file in the directory is not an SCCS file, sact silently ignores the file. 

DESCRIPTION

The sact command reads SCCS files and writes the contents, if any, of the p-file associated with file to standard output (see the get command for information about the contents of the p-file). 

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

The following environment variables affect the execution of sact:

LANGProvides a default value for the internationalization variables that are unset or null. If LANG is unset or null, the corresponding value from the default locale is used. If any of the internationalization variables contain an invalid setting, the utility behaves as if none of the variables had been defined. 

LC_ALLIf set to a non-empty string value, overrides the values of all the other internationalization variables. 

LC_CTYPEDetermines the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as opposed to multibyte characters in arguments and input files). 

LC_MESSAGESDetermines the locale for the format and contents of diagnostic messages written to standard error. 

NLSPATHDetermines the location of message catalogues for the processing of LC_MESSAGES. 

EXIT VALUES

The following exit values are returned:

0Successful completion

>0An error occurred
