sau

AIPS++ source code update utility.

Synopsis

sau file1 [file2 ...]

Description

sau updates the AIPS++ slave and code areas with the lastest version of a file in $AIPSMSTR.

sau is a replacement for au (p) (and rau (p)) on operating systems, most notably Linux and Digital UNIX, that do not support setuid shell scripts. sau is a C-based setuid wrapper that runs a non-setuid copy of au (p), sau.sh.

Refer to the au (p) documentation for further information.

Options

None.

Diagnostics

Status return values
0: success
-1: exec of sau.sh failed.
Refer to the au (p) documentation for other return values.

Examples

The command

   cd $HOME/aips++/code/install
   sau au

would update the slave and plain-text copies of au, but not the script in the AIPS++ bin area.
