What is the command that will tell me the revision code of a program ? |
| UNIX consul |
Yes, that's correct.
|
| Customer |
No, what is it ?
|
| UNIX consul |
Yes.
|
| Customer |
So, which is the one ?
|
| UNIX consul |
No. 'which' is used to find the program.
|
| Customer |
Stop this. Who are you ?
|
| UNIX consul |
Use 'who am i' not 'who r yoo'. You can also 'finger yoo' to get information about yoo'.
|
| Customer |
All I want to know is what finds the revision code ?
|
| UNIX consul |
Use 'what'.
|
| Customer |
That's what I am trying to find out. Isn't that true ?
|
| UNIX consul |
No. 'true' gives you 0.
|
| Customer |
Which one ?
|
| UNIX consul |
'true' gives you 0. 'which programname'
|
| Customer |
Let's get back to my problem. What program? How do I find
it?
|
| UNIX consul |
Type 'find / -name it -print' to find 'it'. Type 'what program' to get the revision code.
|
| Customer |
I want to find the revision code.
|
| UNIX consul |
You can't 'find revisioncode', you must use 'what program'.
|
| Customer |
Which command will do what I need?
|
| UNIX consul |
No. 'which command' will find 'command'.
|
| Customer |
I think I understand. Let me write that.
|
| UNIX consul |
You can 'write that' only if 'that' is a user on your system.
|
| Customer |
Write what?
|
| UNIX consul |
No. 'write that'. 'what program'.
|
| Customer |
Cut that out!
|
| UNIX consul |
Yes. those are valid files for 'cut'. Don't forget the options.
|
| Customer |
Do you always do this ?
|
| UNIX consul |
'du' will give you disk usage.
|
| Customer |
HELP!
|
| UNIX consul |
'help' is only used for Source Code Control System (SCCS).
|
| Customer |
You make me angry.
|
| UNIX consul |
No, I don't 'make me' angry but I did 'make programname' when I was upset once.
|
| Customer |
I don't want to make trouble, so no more.
|
| UNIX consul |
No 'more'? 'which' will help you find 'more'. Every system has 'more'.
|
| Customer |
Nice help! I'm confused more now!
|
| UNIX consul |
Understand that since 'help' is such a small program, it is better not to 'nice help'. and 'more now' is not allowed but 'at now' is. Unless of course 'now' is a file name.
|
| Customer |
This is almost as confusing as my PC.
|
| UNIX consul |
I didn't know you needed help with 'pc'. Let me get you to the Pascal compiler team.
