Using rcs2ws

To use rcs2ws:

1. Type rcs2ws -p [parent_dir] -n [files | directory] at the prompt.

   The -p option is required to name the RCS source hierarch.

   The -n option allows you to see what would be done without actually doing anything.

Relative file names are interpreted as being relative to parent_dir.

The CODEMGR_WS environment variable contains the name of a user's default workspace. This workspace is automatically used if the -w option is not specified. If you wish to designate the child workspace, use the -w option. See man rcs2ws(1).

If the current directory is contained within a workspace, the containing workspace is used as the child workspace. If workspace does not exist, rcs2ws creates it.

Use the "." directory to specify that every RCS file under parent_dir should be converted.

When all is as you wish, go on to Step 2.

1. Type the rcs2ws command using only the -p option.

   Normally, SCCS gets (g-files) are extracted after the files are converted from RCS. If you want to halt the process, do the conversion using the -g option. (rcs2ws -g)
