what is the command that will tell me the revision code of a program ?

UNIX 

yes, that's correct.

Cust 

no, what is it ?

UNIX 

yes.

Cust 

so, which is the one ?

UNIX 

no.'which' is used to find the program.

Cust 

stop this. who are you ?

UNIX 

use 'who am i' not 'who r yoo'.you can also 'finger yoo' to get information about 'yoo'.

Cust 

all i want to know is what finds the revision code ?

UNIX 

use 'what'.

Cust 

that's what i am trying to find out. isn't that true ?

UNIX 

no. 'true' gives you 0.

Cust 

which one ?

UNIX 

'true' gives you 0. 'which programname'

Cust 

let's get back to my problem. what program? how do i find it?

UNIX 

type 'find/-name it' to find 'it'.type 'what program' to get the revision code.

Cust 

i want to find the revision code.

UNIX 

you can't 'find revisioncode', you must use 'what program'.

Cust 

which command will do what i need?

UNIX 

no. 'which command' will find 'command'.

Cust 

i think i understand. let me write that.

UNIX 

you can 'write that' only if 'that' is a user on your system.

Cust 

write what?

UNIX 

no. 'write that'.'what program'.

Cust 

cut that out!

UNIX 

yes. those are valid files for 'cut'.don't forget the options.

Cust 

do you always do this ?

UNIX 

'du' will give you disk usage.

Cust 

HELP!

UNIX 

'help' is only used for Source Code Control System(SCCS).

Cust 

you make me angry.

UNIX 

no, I don't 'make me' angry but i did 'make programname' when i was upset once.

Cust 

i don't want to make trouble, so no more.

UNIX 

no 'more'? 'which' will help you find 'more'. every system has 'more'.

Cust 

nice help! I'm confused more now.

UNIX 

understand that since 'help' is such a small program, it is better not to 'nice help'. and  'more now' is not allowed but 'at now' is.  Unless of course 'now' is a file name.

Cust 

this is almost as confusing as my PC.

UNIX 

i didn't know you needed help with 'pc'.let me get you to the Pascal compiler team.
