All function selectors are case insensitive. Function selectors may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is the upper case letters. Function selectors must appear as the first command line argument.

  Notification
Many aegis commands are capable of notification that they have been run. The individual commands document those specific to them. For documentation on the various configurable notifications, see aepconf(5) and aepattr(5) for more information.

OPTIONS
The following options are available to all functions. These options may appear anywhere on the command line following the function selectors.

The following options are available to most functions. These options may appear anywhere on the command line following the function selectors.

-Change number
    This option may be used to specify a particular change within a project. When no -Change option is specified, the AEGIS_CHANGE environment variable is consulted. If that does not exist, the user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default change field (see aeuconf(5) for more information). If that does not exist, when the user is only working on one change within a project, that is the default change number. Otherwise, it is an error.

-Change project.Cnumber
    As a shortcut, it is possible to combine the -Project and -Change options into a single option.

-Change branch.Cnumber
    Several functions accept a -BRanch option; it is possible to combine the -BRanch and -Change options in a single option. (This intentinally has the same form as the ${version} substitution output for incomplete changes.)

-Change branch.Dnumber
    Several functions accept both the -BRanch and -Delta options (or -BRanch and -Change-From-Delta options); it is possible to combine them in a single option. (This intentinally has the same form as the ${version} substitution output for completed changes.)

-Change project.Dnumber
    It is possible to combine the -Project and -Change-From-Delta options as a single option.

Listings
The following options are available to all listings. These options may appear anywhere on the command line following the function selectors.

Abbreviations

EXIT STATUS
The command will exit with a status of 1 on any error. The command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The command understands the following environment variables:

AEGIS_PATH
    A colon-separated list of library directories. See the -LIBrary option for a description how this environment variable is used.

AEGIS_PROJECT
    Names a default project. See the -Project option for a description how this environment variable is used.

AEGIS_CHANGE
    Specifies a default change. See the -Change option for a description how this environment variable is used.

AEGIS_FLAGS
    This environment variable is used to hold aeuconf(5) information, and over-rides the settings in the users .aegisrc file. This is intended to be used within the tests distributed with aegis, but can also be of use within some shell scripts.

AEGIS_THROTTLE
    Specifies the number of seconds to delay execution within commands which set time stamps. This is intended to be used within the tests distributed with aegis, but can also be of use within some shell scripts.

AEGIS_AUTOMOUNT_POINTS
    A colon-separated list of directories which the automounter may use to mount file systems. Use with extreme care, as this distorts Aegis' idea of the shape of the filesystem.

    This feature assumes that paths below the automounter's mount directory are echoes of paths without it. E.g. When /home is the trigger, and /tmp_mnt/home is where the on-demand NFS mount is performed, with /home appearing to processes to be a symlink.

    This is the behavior of the Sun automounter. The AMD automounter is capable of being configured in this way, though it is not typical of the examples in the manual. Nor is it typical of the out-of-the-box Linux AMD configuration in many distributions.

COLS
    Specifies the page width for errors and listings. See the -Page_Width option for a description how this environment variable is used.

EDITOR
    Specifies the program use to edit files when the -Edit or -Edit_BackGround options are used. (See also the VISUAL environment variable.) Defaults to vi if not set. See the editor_command fields in aeuconf(1) for how to override this specifically for Aegis.

LINES
    Specifies the page length for listings. See the -Page_Length option for a description how this environment variable is used.

PAGER
    Specifies the program to use to view listings and help. Not used if output is to a file or a pipe. Defaults to more if not set.

VISUAL
    Specifies the program use to edit files when the -Edit option is used. (See also the EDITOR environment variable.) Defaults to vi if not set. See the visual_command fields in aeuconf(1) for how to override this specifically for Aegis.
