tprep - prepare tree-structured text for use by tgrep.
tprep
[ -o out-file ] [ -e extension ] [-qh] [ file ... ]
tprep compiles
input files into a format acceptable by tgrep. The input files may be
specified on the command line or may be piped into tprep as standard input.
If specified, the output of tprep will be placed in out-file.extension
where extension may be set on the command line using the -e switch. extension
defaults to "corpus" if not specified on the command line. If multiple
input files are specified they will be amalgamated into out-file. The out-file
may be specified as "-" or "stdout" in which case tprep will output to
standard output. If no out-file is specified each file will be processed
to produce a compiled version of file called file.extension where extension
is derrived in the same was as with the out-file.
If neither an out-file
or a file is specified then tprep reads from standard input and writes
to standard output.
- -o out-file
- write compiled corpus to out-file.
out-file may be specified as "-" or "stdout" to write to the standard output.
- -e extension
- write the compiled corpus for file to file.extension. This
option is not used when an out-file is specified.
- -q
- run in quiet mode.
Do not print various diagnostic messages.
- -h
- help. Print a usage synopsis.
- -H
- extended help. Print a more extensive usage synopsis.
