paicc(1) General Commands Manual paicc(1) NAME paint_changed_characters, paicc SYNOPSIS paicc [ -h -c -mui -t -csae] DESCRIPTION This command turns the static output from one or more Unix commands into a dynamic, pageable, real-time display. You specify the com- mand(s) and the delay period between screen refreshes and Paint Changed Characters does the rest, including optimizations to minimize cursor movement and the number of transmitted characters. (Patterned after the CYBIL version for NOS/VE.) The environment variable SHELL determines which shell will execute the command(s). If it is not defined /bin/sh is assumed. The environment variable D_PAICC_C can be defined to change the default command "ps -el". Example: paicc # execute ps -el every second, # (or the default command) paicc -c "hostname>o;ps -ef>>o;cat o" -mui 3000 # execute ps -ef every 3 seconds # with hostname on first line OPTIONS -help, h, usage_help, full_help: Display Command Information Display information about this command, which includes a command description with examples, plus a synopsis of the command line parameters. If you specify -full_help rather than -help complete parameter help is displayed if it's available. -command, c: string = D_PAICC_C, "ps -el" Specifies the command to periodically execute. You can change the default value "ps -el" by defining the environment variable D_PAICC_C. -millisecond_update_interval, mui: integer = D_PAICC_MUI, 1000 Specifies the number of milliseconds between command executions. 1000 milliseconds = 1 second. You can change the default value by defining D_PAICC_MUI. -title, t: boolean = D_PAICC_T, TRUE Specifies whether to display the paint_changed_characters title line. Define D_PAICC_T to change the default. -clear_screen_at_end, csae: boolean = D_PAICC_CSAE, TRUE Specifies whether or not a final 'screen erase' is done when you exit paint_changed_characters. Remember, if you don't like the default value, define the environment variable D_PAICC_CSAE=NO. AUTHOR Stephen O. Lidie, lusol@Lehigh.EDU Copyright (C) 1985 - 1996 by Stephen O. Lidie.
