NAME
	aelcf -	list change files

SYNOPSIS
	aelcf [	option...  ]
	aelcf -Help
	aelcf -VERSion

DESCRIPTION
	The  aelcf  command  is	used to	list the files which make up a change.
	The file names are printed one per line	on the output.

	If there are no	files matching your criteria (see  below)  the	output
	will be	empty, and no error will be issued.

	This  is  very	similar	 to the	aegis -l cf listing, but it only lists
	file names, it lists no	 other	attributes,  and  it  is  considerably
	faster.

	If  your filenames have	newlines in them, you have a problem.  You can
	use  any   of	the   posix_filename_charset,	dos_filename_required,
	windows_filename_required,  or	shell_safe_filenames  fields  in  your
	project	configuration file to prevent  this.   See  aenf(1)  and  aep-
	conf(5)	for more information.

OPTIONS
	The following options are understood:

	-ACtion	name
		This  option may be used to specify which file actions you are
		interested in.	Valid values are "create", "modify", "remove",
		etc, as	may be observed	in the Action column of	the  aegis  -l
		pf listing.  The default is to list files with all actions ex-
		cept removed files.  You may use this option more than once.

	-Not_ACtion name
		This option may	be used	to exclude an action from the listing.
		If no actions are explicitly included or excluded, the default
		is  to	exclude	 removed  files.  You may use this option more
		than once.

	-Change	number
		This option may	be used	to specify a particular	change	within
		a  project.   See  aegis(1) for	a complete description of this
		option.

	-Help
		This option may	be used	to obtain more information  about  how
		to use the aelcf program.

	-Project name
		This  option  may  be  used to select the project of interest.
		When no	-Project option	is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT	 envi-
		ronment	 variable  is  consulted.  If that does	not exist, the
		user's $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a  default  project
		field (see aeuconf(5) for more information).  If that does not
		exist,	when the user is only working on changes within	a sin-
		gle project, the project name defaults to that project.	  Oth-
		erwise,	it is an error.

	-USAge name
		This  option  may be used to specify which file	usages you are
		interested in.	Valid values are "source", "test", etc,	as may
		be observed in the Usage column	of the aegis  -l  pf  listing.
		The  default  is  to  list files with all usages.  You may use
		this option more than once.

	-Not_USAge name
		This option may	be used	to exclude usages  from	 the  listing.
		The  default is	to exclude no usages.  You may use this	option
		more than once.

	-Quote-C
		This option is used to request that each file name  be	quoted
		as C strings are quoted.

	-Quote-COok
		This  option  is used to request that each file	name be	quoted
		as cook(1) strings are quoted.	When no	 quoting  is  required
		for individual files, the file name will not be	quoted.

	-Quote-Shell
		This  option  is used to request that each file	name be	quoted
		as sh(1) strings are quoted.  When no quoting is required  for
		individual files, the file name	will not be quoted.

	See also aegis(1) for options common to	all aegis commands.

	All  options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented	as the
	upper case letters, all	lower case letters and underscores (_) are op-
	tional.	 You must use consecutive sequences of optional	letters.

	All options are	case insensitive, you may type them in upper  case  or
	lower case or a	combination of both, case is not important.

	For example: the arguments "-project", "-PROJ" and "-p"	are all	inter-
	preted	to  mean the -Project option.  The argument "-prj" will	not be
	understood, because consecutive	optional characters were not supplied.

	Options	and other command line arguments may be	mixed  arbitrarily  on
	the command line, after	the function selectors.

	The  GNU long option names are understood.  Since all option names for
	aelcf are long,	this means ignoring the	extra leading '-'.  The	"--op-
	tion=value" convention is also understood.

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

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
	See aegis(1) for a list	of environment variables which may affect this
	command.   See	aepconf(5)  for	 the  project	configuration	file's
	project_specific  field	 for  how to set environment variables for all
	commands executed by Aegis.
