NAME

showcdf − show the actual path name matched for a CDF

SYNOPSIS

showcdf [ −cs ] name ... 

DESCRIPTION

Showcdf accepts from the standard input a list of names and displays on the standard output the actual path name matched for each name.  If any name is a CDF, the actual file matched for that name is displayed.  If any name is not a CDF, the name is simply displayed. 

Options

−c Suppress the printing of non-CDF files.  Only files whose path contains a CDF will be displayed. 

−s Suppress all output.  This option is useful when testing for the exit value from showcdf.

RETURN VALUE

The exit values are:

0 if at least one CDF is specified. 

1 if no CDFs are specified. 

2 if an error occurs (for example, a file is inaccessible). 

EXAMPLES

The following example shows the output of showcdf when applied to the files /etc/inittab and /usr/adm/sulog, which are CDFs and /etc/passwd, which is not a CDF:

% showcdf /etc/inittab /usr/adm/sulog /etc/passwd
/etc/inittab+/donald
/usr/adm+/donald/sulog
/etc/passwd

% showcdf -c /etc/inittab /usr/adm/sulog /etc/passwd
/etc/inittab+/donald
/usr/adm+/donald/sulog
