BINLEGS(1)

NAME
binlegs - Maintain the GMT index files for mgg supplement

binlegs leglistfile [ -R ] [ -D ] [ -Ppath ] [ -V ]

DESCRIPTION
binlegs will make changes to the mgg supplement data base files gmt_legs.d and gmt_index.b for the legs listed in the leglistfile. Normally, only the data archivist will need to be concerned with these operations.

leglistfile
    Contains the list of legs to be worked on.

OPTIONS
No space between the option flag and the associated arguments

-R  Replace the current information if a leg already is in the system. [Default is append].

-D  Delete information for these legs from the system index files.

-P  Set the path to where the gmt_legs.d and gmt_index.b files reside. [Default is the $GMTHOME/lib.mgg directory].

-V  Selects verbose mode, which will send progress reports to stderr [Default runs "silently"].

EXAMPLES
To add new cruises to the system:

binlegs newlegs.lis -V -P/usr/lib/gmt

To remove bad legs from the system:

binlegs badlegs.lis -D -V -P/usr/lib/gmt
