sact

sccs-sact(1)							   User Commands						      sccs-sact(1)

NAME

       sccs-sact, sact - show editing activity status of an SCCS file

SYNOPSIS

       /usr/ccs/bin/sact s.filename...

DESCRIPTION

       The sact utility informs the user of any SCCS files that are checked out for editing.

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

	 o  SID of a delta that currently exists in the SCCS file, to which changes will be made to make the new delta

	 o  SID for the new delta to be created

	 o  Username of the person who has the file checked out for editing.

	 o  Date that the version was checked out.

	 o  Time that the version was checked out.

       If  a  directory  name  is  used in place of the s.filename argument, the sact command applies to all s.files in that directory. Unreadable
       s.files produce an error; processing continues with the next file (if any). The use of `-' as the s.filename argument  indicates  that  the
       names of files are to be read from the standard input, one s.file per line.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       See  environ(5)	for descriptions of the following environment variables that affect the execution of sact: LANG, LC_ALL, LC_CTYPE, LC_MES-
       SAGES, and NLSPATH.

ATTRIBUTES

       See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:

       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |      ATTRIBUTE TYPE	     |	    ATTRIBUTE VALUE	   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Availability		     |SUNWsprot 		   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
       |Interface Stability	     |Standard			   |
       +-----------------------------+-----------------------------+

DIAGNOSTICS
