LIBRARY
Programmers Workbench Library (libPW.a)
DESCRIPTION
The libpw functions are provided for compatibility with existing programs. Their use in new programs is not recommended. Determines
whether string contains character. Determines the offset in string1 of the first character that also occurs in string2. Determines the
offset in string of the first character in the string end that occurs outside of a balanced string as defined by open and close. Concate-
nates the source strings and copies them to destination. Defaults the cleanup routine. Puts the full pathname of the current directory in
string. Determines which directory contains the file p. General purpose error handler. Same as the stdio fdopen() function. Forces a
core dump. Determines if the string pref is an initial substring of string. Determines the offset of the first occurrence in string1 of
string2. Creates a lock file. Returns caller's login name. Copies the first n characters of string1 to string2. Converts string to
integer. Converts string to long. Sets destination to string repeated n times.
Replaces each occurrence of the character old in string with the character new.
Converts string to integer and saves it in *ip. Causes signals to be caught by the setsig1() function.
General purpose signal handling routine.
Gets a pointer to the simple name of full pathname s.
Finds the end of string. Places a substring of string s in destination using the offset origin and length. Copies string s into destina-
tion and replaces any character in old with the corresponding characters in new. Deletes the lock file. Gets the user's login directory.
Defaults user exit routine. Gets the user's login name. Determines the offset in string1 of the first character that is not also in
string2. Allocates memory. Creates a file. Frees memory.
Frees all memory.
Links files. Calls the fatal() function with an appropriate error message. Opens a file. Creates a pipe. Removes a directory entry.
Writes n bytes to the file associated with fd from buffer. Zeros n bytes starting at address p. Replaces the initial blanks with the
character '0' in string s. delim off

tr(1B) SunOS/BSD Compatibility Package Commands tr(1B)NAME
tr - translate characters
SYNOPSIS
/usr/ucb/tr [-cds] [ string1 [string2]]
DESCRIPTION
The tr utility copies the standard input to the standard output with substitution or deletion of selected characters. The arguments string1
and string2 are considered sets of characters. Any input character found in string1 is mapped into the character in the corresponding posi-
tion within string2. When string2 is short, it is padded to the length of string1 by duplicating its last character.
In either string the notation:
a-b
denotes a range of characters from a to b in increasing ASCII order. The character , followed by 1, 2 or 3 octal digits stands for the
character whose ASCII code is given by those digits. As with the shell, the escape character , followed by any other character, escapes
any special meaning for that character.
OPTIONS
Any combination of the options -c, -d, or -s may be used:
-c Complement the set of characters in string1 with respect to the universe of characters whose ASCII codes are 01 through 0377
octal.
-d Delete all input characters in string1.
-s Squeeze all strings of repeated output characters that are in string2 to single characters.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Creating a list of all the words in a filename
The following example creates a list of all the words in filename1, one per line, in filename2, where a word is taken to be a maximal
string of alphabetics. The second string is quoted to protect `' from the shell. 012 is the ASCII code for NEWLINE.
example% tr -cs A-Za-z ' 12' <filename1>filename2
