dspcat(1) General Commands Manual dspcat(1)
NAME
dspcat - Displays all or part of a message catalog
SYNOPSIS
dspcat [-g] catalog_name [set_number[message_number]]
OPTIONS
Formats the output so that it can be used as input to the gencat command. You cannot use the message_number argument with the -g option.
OPERANDS
Specifies a file containing a message catalog. If the file is not in the current directory, dspcat searches for it in the set of directo-
ries specified by the NLSPATH environment variable. (For more information about NLSPATH, see catopen(3).) Specifies a set in the catalog.
Specifies a particular number in the specified set.
DESCRIPTION
The dspcat command, part of the Tru64 UNIX Message Facility, displays a particular message, all of the messages in a set, or all of the
messages in a catalog.
If you include all three command operands, dspcat displays a particular message. If you do not include message_number, all the messages in
the specified set are displayed. If you specify only catalog_name, all the messages in the catalog are displayed. If you specify either an
invalid message_number or invalid set_number, an error message is displayed. You must include set_number if you include message_number.
EXAMPLES
To display message number 2 in set number 1 of test.cat, enter: dspcat test.cat 1 2
