uucp Options
------------
The following options may be given to `uucp'.
`-c'
`--nocopy'
Do not copy local source files to the spool directory. If they are
removed before being processed by the `uucico' daemon, the copy
will fail. The files must be readable by the `uucico' daemon, and
by the invoking user.
`-C'
`--copy'
Copy local source files to the spool directory. This is the
default.
`-d'
`--directories'
Create all necessary directories when doing the copy. This is the
default.
`-f'
`--nodirectories'
If any necessary directories do not exist for the destination file
name, abort the copy.
`-R'
`--recursive'
If any of the source file names are directories, copy their
contents recursively to the destination (which must itself be a
directory).
`-g grade'
`--grade grade'
Set the grade of the file transfer command. Jobs of a higher
grade are executed first. Grades run `0' to `9', `A' to `Z', `a'
to `z', from high to low. See When to Call.
`-m'
`--mail'
Report completion or failure of the file transfer by sending mail.
`-n user'
`--notify user'
Report completion or failure of the file transfer by sending mail
to the named user on the destination system.
`-r'
`--nouucico'
Do not start the `uucico' daemon immediately; merely queue up the
file transfer for later execution.
`-j'
`--jobid'
Print the jobid on standard output. The job may be later
cancelled by passing this jobid to the `-kill' switch of `uustat'.
See Invoking uustat.
It is possible for some complex operations to produce more than one
jobid, in which case each will be printed on a separate line. For
example
uucp sys1!~user1/file1 sys2!~user2/file2 ~user3
will generate two separate jobs, one for the system `sys1' and one
for the system `sys2'.
`-W'
`--noexpand'
Do not prepend remote relative file names with the current
directory.
`-t'
`--uuto'
This option is used by the `uuto' shell script; see *Note Invoking
uuto::. It causes `uucp' to interpret the final argument as
`system!user'. The file(s) are sent to `~/receive/USER/LOCAL' on
the remote system, where USER is from the final argument and LOCAL
is the local UUCP system name. Also, `uucp' will act as though
`--notify user' were specified.
`-x type'
`--debug type'
`-I file'
`--config file'
`-v'
`--version'
`--help'
See Standard Options.
