List of Additional SCCS Commands

Attention: Using non-SCCS commands with SCCS files can damage the SCCS files.

The following SCCS commands complete the system for handling SCCS files:

rmdel	Removes the most recent delta on a branch from an SCCS file.
sact	Displays current SCCS file editing status.
sccs	Administration program for the SCCS system. The sccs command contains a set of pseudo-commands that perform most SCCS services.
sccshelp	Explains an SCCS error message or command.
unget	Cancels the effect of a previous use of the get -e command.
val	Checks an SCCS file to see if its computed checksum matches the checksum listed in the header.
vc	Substitutes assigned values in place of identification keywords.
what	Searches a system file for a pattern and displays text that follows it.
