The abbreviations foe the list names follows the same rules as for
command line options.
OPTIONS
The following options are understood:
-Help
This option may be used to obtain more information about
how to use the aexml program.
-List
This option may be used to obtain a list of suitable
subjects for this command. The list may be more general
than expected.
-Output filename
This option may be used to specify the output file. The
output is sent to the standard output by default. If
the file name ends with ".gz" it will be compressed with
the gzip(1) algorithm, if it ends with ".bz" or ".bz2"
it will be compressed with the bzip2(1) algorithm.
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 aexml are long, this means ignoring the extra leading
’-’. The "--option=value" convention is also understood.
EXIT STATUS
The aexml command will exit with a status of 1 on any error.
The aexml 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.
