binlegs



       binlegs - Maintain the GMT-SYSTEM index files


SYNOPSIS

       binlegs leglistfile [ -R ] [ -D ] [ -Ppath ] [ -V ]


DESCRIPTION

       binlegs   will   make  changes  to  the  GMT-SYSTEM  files
       gmt_legs.d and gmt_index.b for  the  legs  listed  in  the
       leglistfile.  Normally,  only the data archivist will need
       to be concerned with these operations.

       leglistfile
              Contains the list of legs to be worked on.


OPTIONS

       No space between the option flag and the associated  arguĀ­
       ments


       -R     Replace the current information if a leg already is
              in the system. [Default is append].

       -D     Delete information for these legs from  the  system
              index files.

       -P     Set   the   path   to   where  the  gmt_legs.d  and
              gmt_index.b   files   reside.   [Default   is   the
              $GMTHOME/lib.mgg directory].

       -V     Selects  verbose  mode,  which  will  send progress
              reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"].


EXAMPLES

       To add new cruises to the system, try

       binlegs newlegs.lis -V -P/usr/lib/gmt

       To remove bad legs from the system, try

       binlegs badlegs.lis -D -V -P/usr/lib/gmt
