NAME

     args - TeamWare argument caching file

SYNOPSIS

     Codemgr_wsdata/args

DESCRIPTION

     Sun WorkShop TeamWare was formerly known as CodeManager.  To
     save  users  the  trouble  of  specifying file and directory
     arguments every time the bringover and putback commands  are
     used,     the     arguments     are     cached     in    the
     cws/Codemgr_wsdata/args file. If file, dir or flp (-f) argu-
     ments  are not specified to subsequent invocations of bring-
     over, the arguments are taken from the args file as if  they
     were  specified on the command-line.  The args file contains
     a list of file or directory names, specified exactly as they
     were on the command-line, one name per line.

     The args file is maintained by  the  bringover  and  putback
     commands;  they  update  the file whenever new arguments are
     specified that cause additional files  to  be  copied.   For
     example,  if  you create a workspace with the following com-
     mand:

        example% bringover -w your_ws -p their_ws /usr/man/man1

     the Codemgr_wsdata/args file in your_ws contains:

        VERSION 1
        /usr/man/man1

     if you subsequently bring over /usr/man4:

        example% bringover -w my_ws -p their_ws /usr/man4

     the args file is changed to contain:

        VERSION 1
        /usr/man1
        /usr/man4


     Note  that  if  no  arguments   are   specified,   and   the
     Codemgr_wsdata/args  file  does  not  exist,  bringover will
     report an error.

     Users can edit the args file at any time to change its  con-
     tents.
