MPW Command Reference


Markers

Built-in

SYNTAX

Markers [window] [-q]

DESCRIPTION

The Markers tool prints the names of all markers associated with window. The names are written one per line, in the order in which they appear in the "Mark" menu. That is, in their order of creation, unless the "Alphabetical" menu item is selected.

INPUT

None

OUTPUT

Standard output.

ALIAS RESOLUTION

This command resolves Finder aliases that are part of a partial or complete pathname substituted for the window name. The resolved pathname must specify the name of an open window. Note that using a Shell variable to designate a window is usually faster than requiring MPW to resolve a Finder alias.

Markers can return the following status codes:

0

2

error in processing

3

system error
