Name
       sact - display current SCCS file editing activity

Syntax
       sact files

Description
       The  command  informs the user of any impending deltas to a named SCCS file.  This situation occurs when the command with the -e option has
       been previously executed without a subsequent execution of the command.	If a directory is named on the command	line,  behaves	as  though
       each file in the directory were specified as a named file, except that non-SCCS files and unreadable files are silently ignored.  If a name
       of - is given, the standard input is read with each line being taken as the name of an SCCS file to be processed.

       The output for each named file consists of five fields separated by spaces.

       Field 1	 Specifies the SID of a delta that currently exists in the SCCS file to which changes will be made to make the new delta.

       Field 2	 Specifies the SID for the new delta to be created.

       Field 3	 Contains the login name of the user who will make the delta (that is, executed a for editing.

       Field 4	 Contains the date that -e was executed.

       Field 5	 Contains the time that -e was executed.

Diagnostics
       See for explanations.
