NAME

       aelpf - list project files

SYNOPSIS

       aelpf [ option...  ]
       aelpf -Help
       aelpf -VERSion

DESCRIPTION

       The aelpf command is used to list the files which make up a project.
       The file names are printed one per line on the output.

       This is very similar to the aegis -l pf listing, but it only lists file
       names, it lists no other attributes, and it is considerably faster.

       If a change number is supplied on the command line, the files within
       that change will be excluded from the listing.  This allows build tools
       to distinguish between change files which are changing, from project
       files which are not, if they care.

       If your filenames have newlines in them, you have a problem.  You can
       use any of the posix_filename_charset, dos_filename_required, windows_
       filename_required, or shell_safe_filenames fields in your project
       configuration file to prevent this.  See aenf(1) and aepconf(5) for
       more information.

OPTIONS

       The following options are understood:

       -ACtion name
               This option may be used to specify which file actions you are
               interested in.  Valid values are "create", "modify", "remove",
               etc, as may be observed in the Action column of the aegis -l pf
               listing.  The default is to list files with all actions except
               removed files.  You may use this option more than once.

       -Not_ACtion name
               This option may be used to exclude an action from the listing.
               If no actions are explicitly included or excluded, the default
               is to exclude removed files.  You may use this option more than
               once.

       -Change number
               This option may be used to specify a particular change within a
               project.  See aegis(1) for a complete description of this
               option.

       -Help
               This option may be used to obtain more information about how to
               use the aelpf program.

       -Project name
               This option may be used to select the project of interest.
               When no -Project option is specified, the AEGIS_PROJECT
               environment variable is consulted.  If that does not exist, the
               user’s $HOME/.aegisrc file is examined for a default project
               field (see aeuconf(5) for more information).  If that does not
               exist, when the user is only working on changes within a single
               project, the project name defaults to that project.  Otherwise,
               it is an error.

       -USAge name
               This option may be used to specify which file usages you are
               interested in.  Valid values are "source", "test", etc, as may
               be observed in the Usage column of the aegis -l pf listing.
               The default is to list files with all usages.  You may use this
               option more than once.

       -Not_USAge name
               This option may be used to exclude usages from the listing.
               The default is to exclude no usages.  You may use this option
               more than once.

       See also aegis(1) for options common to all aegis commands.

       All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the
       upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are
       optional.  You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.

       All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or
       lower case or a combination of both, case is not important.

       For example: the arguments "-project, "-PROJ" and "-p" are all
       interpreted to mean the -Project option.  The argument "-prj" will not
       be understood, because consecutive optional characters were not
       supplied.

       Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on
       the command line, after the function selectors.

       The GNU long option names are understood.  Since all option names for
       aelpf are long, this means ignoring the extra leading ’-’.  The
       "--option=value" convention is also understood.

EXIT STATUS

       The aelpf command will exit with a status of 1 on any error.  The aelpf
       command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no errors.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       See aegis(1) for a list of environment variables which may affect this
       command.  See aepconf(5) for the project configuration file’s project_
       specific field for how to set environment variables for all commands
       executed by Aegis.
