shcomp(1) User Commands shcomp(1)NAMEshcomp - compile a ksh93 shell script
SYNOPSISshcomp [-nv] [infile [outfile]]
shcomp-D [infile [outfile]]
DESCRIPTION
If the -D option is not specified, shcomp takes a shell script, infile,
and creates a binary format file, outfile, that ksh93 reads and exe‐
cutes with the same effect as the original script.
Aliases are processed as the script is read. Alias definitions whose
value requires variable expansion will not work correctly.
OPTIONS
The following options are supported:
-D Generate a list of strings that need to be placed in a
--dictionary message catalog for internationalization.
With this option, all double quoted strings that are
preceded by $ are printed, one literal per line. A lit‐
eral $"foo" prints "foo" in the output. These are the
messages that need to be translated to locale specific
versions for internationalization.
-n Display warning messages for obsolete or non-conforming
--noexec constructs.
-v Display input from infile onto standard error as it
--verbose reads it.
OPERANDS
The following operands are supported:
infile Specifies the name of the file that contains the shell
script to be used as input.
If infile is omitted, the shell script is read from standard
input.
outfile Specifies the name of the output file.
If outfile is omitted, both modes write their results to
standard output.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful completion.
>0 An error occurred.
