prcs-callback1

Callback script for ediff support in prcs.el

Usage

(setq prcs-callback-program prcs-callback )

Overview

This manual page documents briefly the prcs-merge-command, script. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

prcs-callback is associated with prcs.el. When called with some number of arguments, this script:

    1. Prints a special magic token on a line by itself.
    2. Prints the number of args on a line by itself.
    3. Prints each of the args in turn on their own lines.
    4. Waits for input.
    5. Reads a line (should be an integer), and exits with 
       that status.

It is used by prcs.el as a value for $PRCS_DIFF_COMMAND or $PRCS_MERGE_COMMAND. The token is used to identify its execution in a general comint buffer.
