X2SYS_PUT(1) Generic Mapping Tools X2SYS_PUT(1)NAMEx2sys_put - Update x2sys track data bases
SYNOPSISx2sys_put [ info.tbf ] -TTAG [ -D ] [ -F ] [ -V ]
DESCRIPTIONx2sys_put accepts a track bin-index file created by x2sys_binlist and
adds this information about the data tracks to the relevant data base.
You may chose to overwrite existing data with new information for older
tracks (-F) and even completely remove information for certain tracks
(-D). The x2sys TAG must match the tag encoded in the info.tbf file.
To inquire about tracks in the data base, use x2sys_get.
-T Specify the x2sys TAG which tracks the attributes of this data
type.
OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated arguments.
info.tbf
Name of a single track bin file. If not given, stdin will be
read.
-D Delete all tracks found in the track bin file [Default will try
to add them as new track entries].
-F Replace any existing database information for these tracks with
the new information in the track bin file [Default refuses to
process tracks already in the database].
-V Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr
[Default runs "silently"].
EXAMPLES
To add the information stored in the track bin-index file latest.tbf to
the track data bases associated with the tag MGD77, and replace any
exiting information for these tracks, try
x2sys_put latest.tbf -F -V -T MGD77
X2SYS DATABASES
The x2sys_put utility adds new information to the x2sys data bases.
These consists of two files: The first file contains a listing of all
the tracks that have been added to the system; it is named TAG_tracks.d
and is in ASCII format. The second file is named TAG_index.b and is in
native binary format. It contains information on which tracks cross
each of the bins, and what data sets were observed while crossing the
bin. The bins are defined by the -R and -I options passed to
x2sys_init when the TAG was first initiated. Both data base files are
stored in the $X2SYS_HOME/TAG directory. Do not attempt to edit these
files by hand.
