ProgramFunction
cats Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDERR output without any conversion.
cat4 Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output with the conversion of TAB (HT) code into 1-4 space(s) to match 4-cols TAB stop.
cat8 Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output with the conversion of TAB (HT) code into 1-8 space(s) to match 8-cols TAB stop.
crlf Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output, with inserting CR (0x0d) before LF (0x0a) not preceded by CR (0x0d), and inserting LF (0x0a) after CR (0x0d) not followed by LF (0x0a). ( [LF CR] will be converted into [CR LF CR LF].)
onlycr Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output, with removing LF (0x0a) preceded by CR (0x0d), and converting other LF (0x0a) into CR (0x0d). (Both [LF CR] and [LF LF] will be converted into [CR CR].)
onlylf Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output, with removing CR (0x0d) followed by LF (0x0a), and converting other CR (0x0d) into LF (0x0a). (Both [LF CR] and [CR CR] will be converted into [LF LF].)
cview
cviewe
Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output with the 'visualize' conversion of control codes, as follows:
    0x00-0x1f ==> 0x40-0x5f preceded by ^ ,
    0x80-0x9e ==> 0x60-0x7e preceded by ^ ,
    0xa1-0xfe ==> 0x21-0x7e preceded by ! ,
    0x7f ==> ^? , 0x9f ==> ^# , 0xa0 ==> ^$ , 0xff ==> ^/ ,
    ^ (0x5e) ==> \^ , ! (0x21) ==> \! , \ (0x5c) ==> \\
'cviewe' deals with <a1-fe> code pairs as visual EUC Zenkaku characters, while 'cview' deals with them as the sequence of non-ASCII characters.
uncview Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output with the inverse conversion of 'cview' / 'cviewe'.
hdump
hdumpe
Read specified file (or STDIN file if omitted), and write it to STDOUT output in the hexadecimal dump format with text representation. Code pairs of <a1-fe> are treated as visual EUC Zenkaku characters by 'hdumpe', while they are treated as the sequence of non-ASCII characters by 'hdump'.
cxtw84 Calculate WGS-84 coordinates.
WGS-84 Latitude/Longitude/Altitude are calculated each time Latitude, Longitude and Altitude on Old-TOKYO coordinates are given.
cxw84t Calculate Old-TOKYO coordinates.
Latitude, Longitude and Altitude on Old-TOKYO coordinates are calculated each time WGS-84 Latitude/Longitude/Altitude are given.
utmcal Calculate UTM coordinates.
First select ellipsoid and central meridian, then Universal Transverse Mercator X and Y coordinates are calculated each time Latitude and Longitude are given.
xycal Calculate JTM coordinates.
First select ellipsoid and coordinate number, then Japanese Transverse Mercator X and Y coordinates are calculated each time Latitude and Longitude are given.
cxiken Calculate Map Projection coordinates.
First select ellipsoid and coordinate number, then Map Projection (X, Y) coordinates are calculated each time Latitude and Longitude are given.
cxenik Calculate Lat. and Long. by inverse Map Projection
First select ellipsoid and coordinate number, then Latitude and Longitude are calculated each time plane rectangular coordinates are given.
igrfcal Calculate IGRF model components.
First select IGRF model and time epoch, then 5 components (F, H, Z, I, D) are calculated each time Latitude, Longitude and Altitude are given.
job A series of Job steps are executed according to the Control file.
    [Usage]   job (Control-filename):(Tag-name)
Job starts from the step with the tag ":(Tag-name)" in the Control file (See bellow). If ":(Tag-name)" is omitted, Job starts from the beginning. But if only "(Tag-name)" is omitted, the tag ":" is assumed.
job1 One Job step is executed according to the Control file.
    [Usage]   job1 (Control-filename):(Tag-name)
Executes only one Job step with the tag ":(Tag-name)" in the Control file (See bellow). The omission rule of Tag-name is same as for 'job'.

Job Control File Format (Example)   ("job.cntl")

    .                   ;# ":(Tag-name)" line specifies the command, and the
    .                   ;# following lines with no ":" on the 1st column are
    .                   ;# piped to STDIN as an input data.
    .                   ;# ";#" and rearward is neglected as a comment.
    .                   ;# Data lines before the 1st command have no effect.
:st1 cat - > temp.data  ;# Job step. Following 3 lines are input data.
  Here is data lines.
  2nd line data
  Last data
:step2                  ;# If no command, no operation is caused.
  abc 123               ;# Data for No operation step have no effect.
:job3   prog            ;# Job step executing 'prog' with no data.
:   calc                ;# Job step executing 'calc' with 4 line data.
     1
    22
   333
  4444
:end                    ;# (explicit expression of data end, may be omitted.)

          The command string is in the form of "(prog) [parm]" (redirection
        may be specified).  If the mechanism of 'opnpin()' is utilized, 'parm'
        indicates the Input-filename[:Tag-name] to read parameters.  Then, if
        single minus sign "-" is given as parm, parameters are read from STDIN,
        which is equivalent to omitting 'parm'.  (However, if "-" is used as
        1st argument, further argument(s) may be used.  'opnpin()' always
        interprets the 1st argument specifies the parameter Input-file.)

Example of using 'opnpin()' mechanism   ("sample.cntl")

:start                  ;# If no command, no operation is caused.
  data 123              ;# Data for No operation step have no effect.

How to execute as a BATCH JOB

After making Job Control File "job.cntl" (and parameter files
if necessary) as above, the command
     % job job.cntl
causes the execution on the foreground.
If background execution is desired, use 'at' command.
     % echo job job.cntl | at now
The completion of the background Job will be notified by E-mail.
