tkey(1)                    DG/UX 4.30                     tkey(1)



     NAME
          tkey - set label and data translation parameters

     SYNOPSIS
          tkey [ -d ] [ -f filename ] [ -p pseudo ] [ key = val ... ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Tkey modifies file labels and record translation parameters.
          If write label parameters are modified, they will be remain
          in effect only until the next tposn or twrite command (
          tposn and twrite reset write label parameters to their
          default values).  If you would like the write label values
          to remain in effect for multiple twrite operations, use the
          -d option.

     OPTIONS
          -d   "Default." Resets the default write labels according to
               the keyword assignments provided.  If this option is
               specified, changes to the write labels will remain
               effective for any succeeding commands in the access
               session.  If -d is not specified, the changes to the
               write labels will affect only the command which
               immediately follows tkey.

          -f filename
               "Keywords." The file filename contains the keyword
               assignments.  See REELexchangeintro(1) for more
               information on the format of this file.

          -p pseudo
               "Tapesetname." Tapeset pseudo name as specified by the
               preceding taccess command which initiated access to the
               tapeset.

          key = val
               "Keywords." Set keyword key to value val.
