# rprcs(1)

a front end for prcs to do checkins and checkouts at a remote site.

## NAME

rprcs - a front end for prcs to do checkins and checkouts at a remote site.

## SYNOPSIS

**rprcs** *PRCS\_command \[PRCS options\] \[-h remotehost\] project*

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **rprcs** command. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**rprcs** is a front end for prcs that uses rsh and rsync to communicate with a remote site and do prcs's checkins and checkouts at the remote site. For the moment rprcs is one shell script that manages all related files, there is no real client and server as e.g. in prcs2.

**rprcs** requires that a server containing the remote repository and running prcs and rsync be available. (See /usr/share/doc/prcs-utils/README for more information about the setup.)

## EXAMPLES

See /usr/share/doc/prcs-utils/rprcs\_session.log for an example of a session using rprcs.
