SRD command line generator
==========================





SRDCMD generates command lines which contain file names selected
by SRD (or PIP - see below). For example, the following SRDCMD com-
mand generates command lines to copy all files created today to UIC
[6,120]; the command lines are written to the file T.CMD:

SRDCMD> *.*/DA COPY 'N'E [6,120]*.* >T

The string 'N'E specifies that the name and extension of each file
name be expanded at that point in the command line. Version, UIC, and
device information can also be placed anywhere in the command line.
For further information, see SRDCMD.DOC.

The routine which gets file names from SRD is called FNDFIL.FTN;
if for some reason SRDCMD doesn't work correctly (if your SRD has a
different output file format from our SRD, for instance) then modify
this file. Another alternative is to build the version of SRD includ-
ed on this tape, which is an enhanced and debugged version. If you
would rather use PIP than SRD, there is a file called PIPFIL.RAT (and
also PIPFIL.FTN) which contains the FNDFIL subroutine, but for PIP.

SRDCMD is written almost entirely in Ratfiv; the .FTN files are
included, however the Ratfiv compiler is also included on this tape,
and should be very simple to build. (See README.1ST on the Ratfiv
compiler directory.)

To build SRDCMD for IAS, say

@IASBUILD

To build SRDCMD for RSX-11M, say

@RSXBUILD

To build SRDCMD for IAS multi-user systems, use IASBUILD.CMD, but sub-
stitute the object code produced by RUNSYMU.FTN for that produced by
RUNSYSIAS.MAC in the file IAS.TKB.
