timedc --
timed control program
Syntax
timedc [ command [ argument ... ] ]
Description
timedc controls the operation of the
timed program. It may be used to:
-
measure the differences between machines' clocks,
-
find the location where the master time server is running,
-
enable or disable tracing of messages received by
timed, and
-
perform various debugging actions.
Without any arguments, timedc will prompt for
commands from the standard input. If arguments are
supplied, timedc interprets the first argument as
a command and the remaining arguments as parameters to the
command. The standard input may be redirected causing
timedc to read commands from a file. Commands
may be abbreviated; recognized commands are:
? [ command ... ]
help [ command ... ]-
Print a short description of each command specified in the
argument list, or, if no arguments are given, a list of the
recognized commands.
