PRS(1SCCS)              COMMAND REFERENCE              PRS(1SCCS)



NAME
     prs - print an SCCS file

SYNOPSIS
     prs [-a] [-d[dataspec]] [-e] [-l] [-r[SID]] files

DESCRIPTION
     Prs ^ prints, on the standard output, parts or all of an
     SCCS file (see sccsfile(5sccs)) in a user supplied format.
     If a directory is named, prs ^ behaves as though each file
     in the directory except non-SCCS files, were specified as a
     named file.  If name of - is given, the standard input is
     read; each line of the standard input is taken to be the
     name of an SCCS file or directory to be processed.

     Data keywords specify which parts of an SCCS file are to be
     retrieved and output.  All parts of an SCCS file (see
     sccsfile(5sccs)) have an associated data keyword.  There is
     no limit on the number of times a data keyword may appear in
     a dataspec.

     The information printed by prs ^ consists of:  (1) the user
     supplied text; and (2) appropriate values (extracted from
     the SCCS file) substituted for the recognized data keywords
     in the order of appearance in the dataspec.  The format of a
     data keyword value is either Simple (S), in which keyword
     substitution is direct, or Multi-line (M), in which keyword
     substitution is followed by a carriage return.

     User supplied text is any text other than recognized data
     keywords.  A tab is specified by \t and carriage
     return/new-line is specified by \n.

OPTIONS
     -a  Requests printing of information for both removed, i.e.,
         delta type = R, (see rmdel(1sccs)) and existing, i.e.,
         delta type = D, deltas.  If the -a keyletter is not
         specified, information for existing deltas only is
         provided.

     -ddataspec
         Used to specify the output data specification.  The
         dataspec is a string consisting of SCCS file data
         keywords (see prskeywords(5sccs)) interspersed with
         optional user supplied text.

     -e  Requests information for all deltas created earlier than
         and including the delta designated via the -r keyletter.

     -l  Requests information for all deltas created later than
         and including the delta designated via the -r keyletter.

     -rSID
         Used to specify the SCCS IDentification (SID) string of
         a delta for which information is desired.  If no SID is
         specified, the  of the most recently created delta is
         assumed.

EXAMPLES


          prs -d"Users and/or user IDs for :F: are:\n:UN:" s.file


     may produce on the standard output:



          Users and/or user IDs for s.file are:
          xyz
          131
          abc




          prs -d"Newest delta for pgm :M:: :I: Created :D: By :P:" -r s.file


     may produce on the standard output:



          Newest delta for pgm main.c: 3.7 Created 77/12/1 By cas


     As a special case:



          prs s.file


     may produce on the standard output:



          D 1.1 77/12/1 00:00:00 cas 1 000000/00000/00000
          MRs:

          bl79-54321
          COMMENTS:
          this is the comment line for s.file initial delta

     is the -a keyletter.
