| Description |
updates the verbs and related items in a given account md, using the "newac" file on the "dm" account as the base standard for determining what should be there. It must be run from the "dm" account.
"update-md" checks for illegal verb definitions and converts "old" catalog pointer items to D3 format. An "active list" (consisting of account names) may be used prior to running "update-md" to update several accounts at once. If no account name is specified, and no list is active, the system requests the account name. The process prompts with the following messages: Create user id from each account name (y, <n>)? This prompt allows the automatic creation of user-ids corresponding to any account updated. Valid responses are "y", "n", or "<return>", which defaults to "n". Enter md file name: This is where the "new" account name is entered. Entering a <return> at this prompt terminates the process. "update-account" and "update-accounts" are synonyms of "update-md". |
