RDTEST(1)
NAME
rdtest - check for syntax (dloadtable) errors in dfiles
SYNOPSIS
rdtest dfile
DESCRIPTION
Use rdtest to check a dfile for syntax errors. Examples of
dfiles are master.tmpl, proj.prompt, proj.control, and all
the files in the allbugs directory.
When you execute rdtest on a dfile, the program reads the
file one line at a time and echos the line to stdout. If it
finds any errors, it prints the line with the output:
dread failure: -2!!! A BUG!!!
The line with the error is then printed. The usual cause of
an error such as this is a non-field in column 1 of the
dfile.
