Note: lots of stuff deleted that doesn't relate to TECO. Pete Siemsen 7-Aug-1989 SUBMISSION FROM THE BERGEN RECORD CORPORATION 150 RIVER STREET HACKENSACK, NJ 07602 ALLEN A. WATSON MANAGER, SYSTEMS TECHNOLOGY (201)-646-4111 This sub-directory contains a collection of command procedures written or revised at The Record, mostly by me but also by members of my staff. They are a mixed bag, including procedures for system management and operations as well as several general purpose utility procedures for use by anyone. I have basically copied over our entire set of system-wide command procedures. In the help library COMFILES.HLB, most of them have fairly complete on-line help; this is usually the only documentation except for comments in the procedures. I will summarize the purpose of most of the major ones below. If a procedure appears in this directory and you can't find documentation here or in the help library, you will just have to look at the code in the procedure to see what it does. Such undocumented procedures are generally short and easy to understand. Many of these procedures reference other ones also contained here. Normally we keep all of them in a directory identified by the logical name "SYS$COM:". If you are testing any of these out, define that logical name to point to the directory in which you have stored these files, or else you will have to edit any references to SYS$COM to be the directory name you are using. AAAREADME.TXT This file. BIGFILE Lists a directory (and optionally subdirectories) with files sorted in descending order of size. Uses TECO, SORT, and DECUS LIST utility (can be replaced with TYPE). TECO macro COPYDIR.TEC is used to reformat listing file. COPYDIR.TEC TECO macro used by BIGFILE.COM. STRIP.TEC TECO macro to strip trailing blanks from command files; as it is, processes all files with .CMD extension (my RSX heritage); alter to ".COM" for VMS files. Intended to show how to use wildcarding in TECO.
