NAME


filedef - create or maintain RMS definition files

SYNOPSIS


filedef deffile [ newdeffile ] 

DESCRIPTION


Filedef is a program used to create and modify RMS definition files used to 
create new RMSfiles.

The first argument to filedef specifies the name of the deffile to be 
created or modified.  It contains a description for one file, what type
of organization is used, definitions for each field of the file, and 
definitions of primary and secondary key fields.  When filedef exits, 
the additions and changes made are written to this file.

The optional newdeffile argument specifies an alternate output file name.
If this argument is specified, the output from filedef is written to 
this file, and the deffile file is not changed.
