CVCAT(1)                                                              CVCAT(1)



NAME
     cvcat - Copy standard in to named file

SYNOPSIS
     cvcat filename

DESCRIPTION
     cvcat is used by the WorkShop Debugger and Performance tools to prepare
     command-line arguments for the target process when the complete command
     line is longer than can be handled by the canonical processing of the pty
     driver.

     It reads its standard input, concatenating lines and writing the result
     to the named file.

X RESOURCES
     Although cvcat is not itself an X program, and does not read or obey any
     X resources, one is relevant to it:  if the X resource longCmdsOK is set
     to True, then WorkShop will not use cvcat processing no matter how long
     the command line may be.  For shells that do not use canonical processing
     (including tcsh, and ksh in Emacs mode), this allows the complete
     invoking command to appear in the shell history list.
