NAME

       nytidy - tool to clean up specialized-format patches

SYNOPSIS

       nytidy old new options [ print ] [ .go ]

DESCRIPTION

       nytidy  is  a  tool  in the Nypatchy suite of programs for working with Patchy Master Files (PAM files); see nypatchy(1).  Specifically, it
       will make a cleaned-up copy of a PAM file.  Changes include removal of trailing whitespace on each line, removal of  trailing  and  leading
       comment lines (only in FORTRAN decks), and update of some built-in sequences.

USAGE

       The parameter old is the name of the original PAM file (a default extension of ".car" is assumed), while new is the name of the new cleaned
       PAM file to create.  (If new is not given or is given as "-" then the original file will be overwritten; this may be dangerous.)  print	is
       the  file  to which informational messages should be written (the default is standard output if omitted), and options is a sequence of sin-
       gle-character flags.

       The command should be ended with ".go" unless one wants to enter the Nypatchy interactive shell.

OPTIONS

       Note that options should be given as a single string of characters with no space separation and no use of the - character (except  that	it
       can be used in place of the options field if no options are desired).  Alphabetic options are not case-sensitive.

       C      Assume the original file is a CMZ output file.

       H      Print help information only.

       V      "verbose" - Print each change.

       +      Inhibit the initial page-eject.

       Running the command "nytidy help .no" also gives some brief help on usage.

NAME

       yexpand - tool to expand environment variables in Nypatchy cradles

SYNOPSIS

       yexpand inputfile [ outputfile ]

DESCRIPTION

       yexpand	is  a  very simple script to expand environment variables in a text file to their current values in the shell environment.  It was
       written to be used with nypatchy cradles.  It is recommended you not try to use it for any other purposes (note BUGS below).

USAGE

       yexpand takes inputfile as input, replaces all instances of shell variables (in the form $VARIABLE or ${VARIABLE}) with their current  val-
       ues  in the environment, and saves the result to outputfile.  Undefined variables are replaced with the empty string.  If outputfile is not
       given, the result is instead saved to the current directory as a file of the same name as inputfile.  Thus an input  file  in  the  current
       directory will be overwritten.

BUGS

       This  script  is  very  simple-minded.  Since it basically just echos its input file as a here-doc, it will attempt to perform all types of
       shell substitution (command substitution, etc.) as well as variable substitution.  Hence it is likely to fail on anything except  the  very
       simplest text files.

       Additionally, this script creates a temporary file.  The file is created in the current directory, so there should not be security implica-
       tions.  However, any existing file named file.yexp (where file is the basename of inputfile) in the current directory will  be  overwritten
       and then deleted.
