testdbfawk(1)		     General Commands Manual		   testdbfawk(1)

NAME
     testdbfawk  -  scan dbfawk files for matching dbf file for map rendering in
     xastir

SYNOPSIS
     testdbfawk [-f file.awk| -D dir] -d file.dbf

DESCRIPTION
     Scan dbfawk files for matching dbf file for map rendering in xastir

     --help prints command line usage
     -D for dir containing *.dbfawk files.
     -f for file containing awk rules.
     -d for dbf file to parse

EXAMPLES
     testdbfawk -D . -d tgr36119lkA.dbf 2>&1|less

     testdbfawk scans the current directory for  dbfawk  files	with  signatures
     that  match  tgr36119lkA.dbf's  signature.   testdbfawk dumps its output to
     standard error, so in the example standard error is redirected to	standard
     out and piped into "less" for paging.

NOTES
     Dbfawk hints and kinks:  You have to think like an awk programmer and real-
     ize  that	the  order that rules are listed matters, that it's important to
     use "next" as soon as it makes sense so other rules aren't looked at unnec-
     essarily and, to use "skip" when you want to fix bad dbf data.
