dtconvertvf(4) UNIX System V (1 August 1995) dtconvertvf(4)
NAME
dtconvertvf - convert VUE 3.0 action/filetype files to DT
syntax
SYNOPSIS
dtconvertvf
DESCRIPTION
The dtconvertvf utility is a filter script for converting
VUE 3.0 action and filetype databases to the new CDE 1.0
datatypes syntax. If the input is a VUE 3.0 filetype file
(*.vf) then its output will be converted to a CDE 1.0
datatypes file. It is up to the user to name the output
file accordingly. To be recognized by CDE 1.0 it must have
the .dt suffix.
EXAMPLE
To convert a single action/filetype file to CDE 1.0 syntax:
sp 1 dtconvertvf < file.vf > file.dt
To convert all action/filetype files in current directory to
CDE 1.0 syntax:
for vffile in *.vf; do
dtfile=${vffile%.vf}.dt dtconvertvf < $vffile >
$dtfile
done
