NAME

       wfut - WorldForge update tool

SYNOPSIS

       wfut [ options ] -u channel_name

DESCRIPTION

       wfut  is a command-line update tool intended for use with WorldForge systems. It provides the client side update functionality. Server-side
       functionality is still at present only available in the Java version of WFUT.

OPTIONS

       -u channel_name, --update=channel_name
	      Update the channel channel_name.	This can be a period, ., if the current directory (or prefix) is the full path to a channel.

       -p local_root, --prefix=local_root
	      Use the directory local_root instead of the current working directory to search for local updates.

       -s system_root, --system=system_root
	      Look in system_root for read-only / package installed channel data.

       -S server_root, --server=server_root
	      Use server_root as the base URL on the server in which channels are kept.

EXAMPLES

       The following command will update the channel sear-media.  This will look for a directory called sear-media in $HOME/.wfut/, or create  one
       if necessary and download updates into there. It will also look in /usr/share/wfut/sear-media for existing files.

       wfut -s /usr/share/wfut/ -p $HOME/.wfut/ -u sear-media

NOTES

       wfut uses curl internally.
