uuto, uupick Command
public UNIX-to-UNIX system file copy
_________________________________________________________________
SYNTAX
uuto [ options ] source-files destination
uupick [ -s system ]
DESCRIPTION
Uuto sends source-files to destination. Uuto uses the uucp(1)
facility to send files, while it allows the local system to
control the file access. A source-file name is a path name on
your machine. Destination has the form:
system!user
where system is taken from a list of system names that uucp knows
about (see uuname). User is the login name of someone on the
specified system.
Two options are available:
-p Copy the source file into the spool directory before
transmission.
-m Send mail to the sender when the copy is complete.
The files (or sub-trees if directories are specified) are sent to
PUBDIR on system, where PUBDIR is a public directory defined in
the uucp source. By default, this directory is
/usr/spool/uupublic. Specifically the files are sent to
PUBDIR/receive/user/mysystem/files.
The destined recipient is notified by mail(1) of the arrival of
files.
Uupick accepts or rejects the files transmitted to the user.
Specifically, uupick searches PUBDIR for files destined for the
user. For each entry (file or directory) found, the following
message is printed on the standard output:
from system: [file file-name] [dir dirname] ?
Uupick then reads a line from the standard input to determine the
disposition of the file:
<new-line> Go on to next entry.

d Delete the entry.
m [ dir ] Move the entry to named directory dir (current
directory is default). If dir is not specified
as a complete path name (in which $HOME is
legitimate), a destination relative to the
current directory is assumed. If no destination
is given, the default is the current directory.
a [ dir ] Same as m except moving all the files sent from
system.
p Print the content of the files.
q Stop.
EOT (control-d) Same as q.
!command Escape to the shell to do command.
* Print a command summary.
Uupick invoked with the -ssystem option will only search the
PUBDIR for files sent from system.
FILES
PUBDIR /usr/spool/uucppublic public directory
NOTES
In order to send files that begin with a dot (e.g., .profile) the
files must by qualified with a dot. For example: .profile,
.prof*, .profil? are correct; whereas *prof*, ?profile are
incorrect.
