.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
.B Mk_cmds
|
||
|
|
converts a table listing command names and associated help messages
|
||
|
|
into a C source file suitable for use with the
|
||
|
|
.IR ss (3)
|
||
|
|
library.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The source file name must end with a suffix of ``.ct''; the file
|
||
|
|
consists of a declaration supplying the name of the command table:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B command_table
|
||
|
|
.I name
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
followed by entries of the form:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
[
|
||
|
|
.B request
|
||
|
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B unimplemented
|
||
|
|
]
|
||
|
|
.I name,
|
||
|
|
"
|
||
|
|
.I string
|
||
|
|
"[, abbrev]...;
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
and a final
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
.B end
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
to indicate the end of the table.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A C source file is generated which should be compiled and linked
|
||
|
|
with the object files use the ss library.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
A ``#'' in the source file is treated as a comment character, and all
|
||
|
|
remaining text to the end of the source line will be ignored.

.SH BUGS
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Since the original
|
||
|
|
.B mk_cmds
|
||
|
|
uses a very simple parser based on
|
||
|
|
.IR yacc (1),
|
||
|
|
and this current version of
|
||
|
|
.B mk_cmds
|
||
|
|
uses an awk/sed combination of scripts,
|
||
|
|
its error recovery leaves much to be desired.
