install-catalog - Manage a SGML or XML centralized catalog
SYNOPSIS
install-catalog [ option ] action ... [ [ -d] [ --delegate] ] [ [
-a centralized ordinary] [ --add centralized ordinary]
[ -r centralized ordinary] [ --remove centralized ordinary]
[ -h] [ --help]
[ -v] [ --version] ]
DESCRIPTION
This shell script allows to handle a centralized catalog referencing
other "ordinary" SGML or XML Open Catalogs.
An Open Catalog contains a set of directives defined by OASIS, mostly
used for defining equivalences between FPIs (Formal Public Identifiers)
and real file names (see TR9401:1997 on http://www.oasis-open.org
<URL:http://www.oasis-open.org>). The Open Catalogs usually reside in
/usr/share/sgml.
A centralized catalog is a special Open Catalog that includes only com‐
ments and CATALOG directives pointing to other catalogs (or DELEGATE
directives if supported). The centralized catalog can be the key to all
other SGML resources. It usually resides in /etc/sgml.
The centralized catalog can be edited manually or through the install-
catalog script to add or remove references to other ordinary catalogs.
This script is mainly destined to software package post-installation
scripts.
An example of a typical call to install-catalog is:
install-catalog --add \
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.54/catalog \
/etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-4.0.cat
This call will install in /etc/sgml/sgml-docbook-4.0.cat a reference to
/usr/share/sgml/docbook/dsssl-stylesheets-1.54/catalog.
OPTIONS
Here is the list of options that can influence the way install-catalog
