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
