RCSCLEAN(1)							    RCSCLEAN(1)

NAME
       rcsclean - clean up working files

SYNOPSIS
       rcsclean [rcsdiff options] [file ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       rcsclean removes working files that were checked out and never modified.
       For each file given, rcsclean compares the working file and  a  revision
       in the corresponding RCS file. If it finds no difference, it removes the
       working file, and, if the revision was locked, unlocks the revision.

       If no file is given, all working files  in  the	current	 directory  are
       cleaned.	 Any other options are passed along to rcsdiff for the compari-
       son.

       rcsclean is useful for clean targets in Makefiles.  See also rcsdiff(1),
       which prints out the differences, and ci(1), which normally asks whether
       to check in a file if it was not changed.

EXAMPLES
	      rcsclean	*.c  *.h

       removes all working files ending in .c or .h that were not changed since
       their checkout.
	      rcsclean

       removes all working files in the current directory that were not changed
       since their checkout.

DIAGNOSTICS
       The exit status is 0 if there were no differences in any file under  RCS
       control, 1 if there were differences, and 2 if there were errors.

BUGS
       RCS file names may not be given as arguments.

       Any diagnostics generated by rcsdiff when comparing files are discarded.

       If the latest revision is already unlocked, and you have a  lock	 on  an
       earlier revision, the earlier revision is unlocked.

       rcsclean	 is  just  an  optional example shell script, and should not be
       taken too seriously.
