SYNOPSIS
shcomp [ options ] [infile] [outfile]]ORIGIN OF THIS MAN PAGE
This man page was written by Christophe Martin <[email protected]> for the Debian GNU/Linux system. It is based on "shcomp --man" output.DESCRIPTION
Unless -D is specified, shcomp takes a shell script, infile, and creates a binary format file, outfile, that ksh93 can read and execute with the same effect as the original script.Since aliases are processed as the script is read, alias definitions whose value requires variable expansion will not work correctly.
If -D is specified, all double quoted strings that are preceded by $ are output. These are the messages that need to be translated to locale specific versions for internationalization.
If outfile is omitted, then the results will be written to standard output. If infile is also omitted, the shell script will be read from standard input.
