   NAME
         prs - print an SCCS file

   SYNOPSIS
         prs [-d[dataspec]] [-r[SID]] [-e] [-l] [-c[date-time]] [-a] files

   DESCRIPTION
         prs prints, on the standard output, parts or all of an SCCS file [see
         sccsfile(4)] in a user-supplied format.  If a directory is named, prs
         prints the files in that directory, except the non-SCCS files (last
         component of the path name does not begin with s.)  and unreadable
         files.  If a name of - is given, the standard input is read; each
         line of the standard input is taken to be the name of an SCCS file or
         directory to be processed.  prs silently ignores non-SCCS files and
         unreadable files.

         Arguments to prs, which may appear in any order, consist of keyletter
         arguments and file names.

         The keyletter arguments apply independently to each named file:

              -d[dataspec]   Specifies the output data specification.  The
                             dataspec is a string consisting of SCCS file data
                             keywords (see the DATA KEYWORDS section)
                             interspersed with optional user-supplied text.

              -r[SID]        Specifies the SCCS identification (SID) string of
                             a delta for which information is desired.  The
                             default is the top delta.

              -e             Requests information for all deltas created
                             earlier than and including the delta designated
                             via the -r keyletter or the date given by the -c
                             option.

              -l             Requests information for all deltas created later
                             than and including the delta designated via the
                             -r keyletter or the date given by the -c option.

              -c[date-time]  The cutoff date-time in the form:

                                   YY[MM[DD[HH[MM[SS]]]]]

                             Units omitted from the date-time default to their
                             maximum possible values; for example, -c7502 is
                             equivalent to -c750228235959.  Any number of
                             non-numeric characters may separate the fields of
                             the cutoff date; for example, "-c77/2/2 9:22:25".

   prs(1)            (Source Code Control System Utilities)             prs(1)


              -a             Requests printing of information for both
                             removed, i.e., delta type = R, [see rmdel(1)] and
                             existing, i.e., delta type = D, deltas.  If the
                             -a keyletter is not specified, information for
                             existing deltas only is provided.

   DATA KEYWORDS
         Data keywords specify those parts of an SCCS file that are to be
         retrieved and output.  All parts of an SCCS file [see sccsfile(4)]
         have an associated data keyword.  There is no limit on the number of
         times a data keyword may appear in a dataspec.

         The information printed by prs consists of:  (1) the user-supplied
         text; and (2) appropriate values (extracted from the SCCS file)
         substituted for the recognized data keywords in the order of
         appearance in the dataspec.  The format of a data keyword value is
         either ``Simple'' (S), in which keyword substitution is direct, or
         ``Multi-line'' (M), in which keyword substitution is followed by a
         carriage return.

         User-supplied text is any text other than recognized data keywords.
         A tab is specified by \t and carriage return/new-line is specified by
         \n.  The default data keywords are:

               ":Dt:\t:DL:\nMRs:\n:MR:COMMENTS:\n:C:"

         The command

         may produce on the standard output:

               Users and/or user IDs for s.file are:
               xyz
               131

         The command

               prs -d"Newest delta for pgm :M:: :I: Created :D: By :P:" -r
               s.file

         may produce on the standard output:

               Newest delta for pgm main.c: 3.7 Created 77/12/1 By cas

         The default case:

               prs s.file

         produces on the standard output:

               D 1.1 77/12/1 00:00:00 cas 1 000000/00000/00000

               COMMENTS:
               this is the comment line for s.file initial delta

         for each delta table entry of the ``D'' type.  The only keyletter
         argument allowed to be used with the ``special case'' is the -a
         keyletter.
