Annotation of researchv10dc/cmd/library/2.labels, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1 root 1: W Address labels
2: D l Personnel address label images based on IDs or names.
3: S LABELS
4: ONE
5: ? This option allows you to request a set of label images.
6: ? That is, you submit a list of IDs (PANs and/or Social Security Numbers)
7: ? and/or names and the system will send you a file (via mail) which is
8: ? properly formatted for printing on label stock.
9: ----------------------------------------------
10: Label command parameters (? for help) +S1
11: ? What follows are the acceptable parameters for the label command.
12: ? Note that just putting "unknown" or "default" will give default
13: ? values which will usually be acceptable.
14: ?
15: ? -x The number supplied by this parameter is the number of rows of labels
16: ? consisting of Xes put out at the start of the label set. These are
17: ? for the operator to use in aligning the labels. The default is 15.
18: ? -s Sort the labels by address.
19: ? -t Use the tag information to do a sort of the labels.
20: ? -n Use the name field to do a sort of the labels.
21: ? -e Add an ending labels telling information about the generated set
22: ? of labels.
23: ? -a Add id and department information at the top of each label.
24: ? -D Specify a company for which labels are desired. Note the company
25: ? designations are the standards for the Library Network's database.
26: ? -S Suppress multiple copies. This causes one copy of every label to be
27: ? produced regardless of the copy information given in the input file.
28: ? -W Specify the width of the labels. This overrides the default
29: ? of 30 characters.
30: ? -m Produce the output in the format required by mklabel.
31: ? This consists of the label information followed by a
32: ? line with only two periods on it.
33: ? -3 Produce 3 across labels instead of the default 1 across.
34: ? -4 Produce 4 across labels instead of the default 1 across.
35: ? -8 Produce labels at 8 lines per inch.
36: ? -L The library code passed via this parameter indicates
37: ? that the labels should be generated as though they are
38: ? being mailed from the location of the indicated library.
39: ? -M Produce a master set of labels at the end of the listing.
40: ? These labels give the full address for each major location
41: ? symbol (e.g. MH, RR, 17) which occurs in the database.
42: ?
43: ? Reminder: This will get you electronic label images, NOT labels.
44: Lines to generate a label for (one person/label per line) +8000
45: ? Each line to generate a label for has the form:
46: ? <person's id>[<tab><tag information>][<tab>#<number copies>]
47: ? The tag information is put on the label below the address.
48: ? Note that the <person's id> can be any id in the Library Network's
49: ? personnel database, or a name (in the form last,first), or a name
50: ? with a location limiter (in form name+location).
51: ?
52: ? When a name is specified it can also be limited by location.
53: ? For example, say you need a label for a D Smith at Atlanta.
54: ? Entering the line
55: ? smith,d ak
56: ? causes the system to only to look at D Smith's whose
57: ? location start with "AK".
58: ?
59: ? At this prompt you can read in a file with the command ~r filename
60: ?
61: ? And a blank line ends your entering of label lines.
