SACT(1)                 GENIX Programmer's Manual                 SACT(1)



      NAME
           sact - print current SCCS file editing activity

      SYNOPSIS
           sact files

      DESCRIPTION
           Sact informs the user of any impending deltas to a named SCCS  file.
           This situation occurs when get(1) with the -e option has been previ-
           ously executed without a subsequent execution  of  delta(1).   If  a
           directory  is named on the command line, sact behaves as though each
           file in the directory were specified as a named  file,  except  that
           non-SCCS files and unreadable files are silently ignored.  If a name
           of - is given, the standard input is read with each line being taken
           as  the  name  of an SCCS file to be processed.  The output for each
           named file consists of five fields separated by spaces.

                Field 1     specifies the SID of a delta that currently  exists
                            in  the  SCCS file to which changes will be made to
                            make the new delta.

                Field 2     specifies the SID for the new delta to be created.

                Field 3     contains the logname of the user who will make  the
                            delta (i.e. executed a get for editing).

                Field 4     contains the date that get -e was executed.

                Field 5     contains the time that get -e was executed.

      NOTE
           The info and tell entry points of the  sccs  command  provide  nicer
           interfaces to sact's functionality.
