uux Options
-----------
The following options may be given to `uux'.
`-'
`-p'
`--stdin'
Read standard input up to end of file, and use it as the standard
input for the command to be executed.
`-c'
`--nocopy'
Do not copy local files to the spool directory. This is the
default. If they are removed before being processed by the
`uucico' daemon, the copy will fail. The files must be readable
by the `uucico' daemon, as well as the by the invoker of `uux'.
`-C'
`--copy'
Copy local files to the spool directory.
`-l'
`--link'
Link local files into the spool directory. If a file can not be
linked because it is on a different device, it will be copied
unless one of the `-c' or `--nocopy' options also appears (in
other words, use of `--link' switches the default from `--nocopy'
to `--copy'). If the files are changed before being processed by
the `uucico' daemon, the changed versions will be used. The files
must be readable by the `uucico' daemon, as well as by the invoker
of `uux'.
`-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.
`-n'
`--notification=no'
Do not send mail about the status of the job, even if it fails.
`-z'
`--notification=error'
Send mail about the status of the job if an error occurs. For many
`uuxqt' daemons, including the Taylor UUCP `uuxqt', this is the
default action; for those, `--notification=error' will have no
effect. However, some `uuxqt' daemons will send mail if the job
succeeds, unless the `--notification=error' option is used. Some
other `uuxqt' daemons will not send mail even if the job fails,
unless the `--notification=error' option is used.
`-a address'
`--requestor address'
Report job status, as controlled by the `--notification' option, to
the specified mail address.
`-r'
`--nouucico'
Do not start the `uucico' daemon immediately; merely queue up the
execution request for later processing.
`-j'
`--jobid'
Print the jobid on standard output. A jobid will be generated for
each file copy operation required to execute the command. These
file copies may be later cancelled by passing the jobid to the
`-kill' switch of `uustat'. See Invoking uustat. Cancelling
any file copies will make it impossible to complete execution of
the job.
`-x type'
`--debug type'
`-v'
`--version'
`--help'
See Standard Options.
