cserver - To start the Chinese server.


SYNOPSIS

       cserver  [-f file ]  [-s file ]


DEFAULT PATH

       /usr/local/bin/cWnn4/cserver


DESCRIPTION

       During  Chinese input, cserver provides the services (such
       as conversion services) and resources (such as  dictionar­
       ies, grammar files etc.), required by the users (front-end
       processors).

       The input environment is provided by the front-end proces­
       sor  (cuum), which sends its request to the cserver, which
       subsequently performs the service and  return  the  result
       back to the front-end processor.

       Normally,  once  the system is up, fork() will be executed
       and the server runs as a background process.  The  startup
       of cserver can be set in "/etc/rc" to be executed automat­
       ically in the Unix system.

       When the "cserver" command is executed, all  the  settings
       in            the            initialization           file
       "/usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/cserverrc"  will be read and the
       corresponding initialization operations will be performed.

       Besides, all resources such as dictionaries and usage fre­
       quency  files  of  the  clients  will be maintained by the
       cserver.  Refer to cWnn manual for details on "cserverrc".

       If  the  user  happens  to  start  up cserver after it has
       already been started, an  error  message  will  be  given.
       Refer to cWnn manual for the error message.


OPTIONS

       -f     file
              file  is  the specified initialization file for the
              server.  If  this  option  is  not  specified,  the
              default initialization file
              "/usr/local/lib/wnn/zh_CN/cserverrc"  will be read.

       -s     file
              file is the  specified  logfile  of  cserver.   All
              error  messages  will be directed to this specified
              logfile.  When  file  is  specified  as  "-",  (eg.
              cserver  -s  -), the error messages will be sent to
              the standard error output.


NOTE

       1.     The command options inside [ ] shown in the Command


       2.     If  they are not required,  "cserver" alone is suf­
              ficient to start up the Chinese server.
