        SYNTAX

        cdc -rSID [-m[mrlist]] [-y[comment]] files


        DESCRIPTION

        Cdc changes the delta commentary for the SID specified by the -r
        keyletter of each named SID file.

        Delta commentary is defined to be the Modification Request (MR)
        and comment information normally specified via the delta(1)
        command (-m and -y keyletters).

        If a directory is named, cdc behaves as though each file in the
        directory were specified as a named file, except that non-SCCS
        files (last component of the pathname does not begin with s.) and
        unreadable files are silently ignored.  If a name of - is given,
        the standard input is read (see "WARNINGS"); each line of the
        standard input is taken to be the name of an SCCS file to be
        processed.

        Arguments to cdc can appear in any order.  They consist of
        keyletter arguments and filenames.

        All the described keyletter arguments apply independently to each
        named file:

        -rSID
             Specifies the SCCS IDentification (ID) SID string of a delta
             for which the delta commentary is to be changed.

        -m[mrlist]
             If the SCCS  file has the v flag set (see admin(1)), then
             you can supply a list of MR numbers to be added and/or
             deleted in the delta commentary of the SID  specified by the
             -r keyletter.  A null MR list has no effect.  MR entries are
             added to the list of MRs as in delta(1).  To delete an MR,
             precede the MR number with the character ! (see EXAMPLES).
             If the MR to be deleted is currently in the list of MRs, it
             is removed and changed into a "comment" line.  A list of all
             deleted MRs is placed in the comment section of the delta
             commentary and preceded by a comment line stating that they
             were deleted.

                                                                   cdc(1)



                            If -m is not used and the standard input is a
                            terminal, the prompt MRs? is issued on the
                            standard output before the standard input is
                            read; if the standard input is not a
                            terminal, no prompt is issued.  The MRs?
                            prompt always precedes the comments? prompt
                            (see -y keyletter).  MRs in a list are
                            separated by blanks and/or tab characters.
                            An unescaped new-line character terminates
                            the MR list.

                            Note that if the v flag has a value (see
                            admin(1)), it is taken to be the name of a
                            program (or shell procedure) that validates
                            the MR numbers.  If a non-zero exit status is
                            returned from the MR number validation
                            program, cdc terminates and the delta
                            commentary remains unchanged.

             -y[comment]    Arbitrary text that replaces the current
                            comment(s) for the delta specified by the -r
                            keyletter.  The previous comments are kept
                            and preceded by a comment line stating that
                            they were changed.  A null comment has no
                            effect.

                            If -y is not specified and the standard input
                            is a terminal, the prompt comments? is issued
                            on the standard output before the standard
                            input is read; if the standard input is not a
                            terminal, no prompt is issued.  An unescaped
                            new-line character terminates the comment
                            text.

             The exact permissions necessary to modify the SCCS file are
             documented in Programmer's Guide to the DG/UX System.
             Simply stated, they are either (1) if you made the delta,
             you can change its delta commentary; or (2) if you own the
             file and directory, you can modify the delta commentary.


        EXAMPLES

             cdc -r1.6 -m"bl78-12345 !bl77-54321 bl79-00001" -ytrouble
             s.file

             cdc -r1.6 s.file
             MRs? !bl77-54321 bl78-12345 bl79-00001
             comments? trouble

        Both examples add bl78-12345 and bl79-00001 to the MR list,

        remove bl77-54321 from the MR list, and add the comment trouble
        to delta 1.6 of s.file.


        WARNINGS

        If SCCS file names are supplied to the cdc command via the
        standard input (- on the command line), then the -m and -y
        keyletters must also be used.
