mcconv7 — Convert MemCom 6 database to MemCom 7 format
mcconv7
dbname
mcconv7 converts a
MemCom 6
database to a
MemCom 7 database. Note that a
MemCom 7 database now consist of a
directory and not of a single file like in
MemCom 6. mcconv7
converts the database dbname
to a neutral file
dbname.nf.6
which in its turn is converted to a
MemCom 7 database
dbname.mc
. The neutral file
dbname.nf.6
can be deleted after
mcconv7 has terminated. The program returns 0 if
the operation succeeds and 1 otherwise.[1]
mcconv7 only works if the package MEMCOM-6.6.x is installed.
mcconv7 does not yet check if the amount of
disk space is sufficient for perform the conversion. Please check if
approximately 3 times the space occupied by the
MemCom 6 database
dbname
is available. This can be done by the UNIX
commands
ls -al dbname # size of database in bytes df -k . # Displays the available disk space in kbytes
