rdym (ready_message) -- Set system ready message.
usage: rdym {-on | -off}
DESCRIPTION
rdym enables or inhibits the output of a system ready message to standard
output after execution of each shell command. The message lists the CPU
time required to execute the command and the elapsed time since the last
command. Both times are reported in seconds and decimal fractions of
seconds. The message appears on a line following the echoed command line
in the shell's process transcript pad.
Turning on the ready message interactively or in a shell script causes it
to be printed after each command of the program is executed. If the
ready message is not disabled at the end of the shell script, it remains
in effect after the shell script exits.
Ready message printing is enabled and disabled for levels. The level
number increases each time a shell script or the shell is invoked, and
decreases when it exits. The times printed in the ready message reflect
the CPU and real time used since the last message at the same level.
Thus, for example, if the ready message is enabled in a shell script,
after the last command of the program is finished, two ready messages are
printed: one showing the time used by that command; and the other the
time used by the whole shell script.
If the ready message is turned on by one level, it remains on when that
level exits; however, if it is disabled by a level, it reverts to its
previous state when that level exits.
By default, system ready messages are disabled at login.
OPTIONS
-on Enable message.
-off Disable message.
