NAME

pathproc − pathalias post-processor for smail routing database

DESCRIPTION

pathproc takes lines of the form:

first_hop_cost  key  route

as produced by pathalias −f, and converts them to the form

key route  cost

as described in paths(5). On the input, the route_cost is pathalias’s total cost for the route. On the output, the cost is the cost for the first segment of the route.  This represents the cost, to the local host, of passing the mail to its neighbor. 

The output is sorted by key in ascending order. 

Example

Here is an example of how pathproc is used:

pathalias -f map_files | pathproc > newpaths
mv newpaths /usr/lib/uucp/paths
