The report index file is used to store pointers to report scripts, and descriptions of the reports.
When searching for a report,
the
aer(1)
command searches down the
AEGIS_PATH
looking for
report.index
files,
and searching them for the report named.
This field is a table relating report name to file name. The structure is as follows:
The name of a report. The command line argument naming scheme is used, to provide abbreviatable names.
A brief description of the report. It should not be very long, one or two lines at most.
The name of the file containing the report script. If a relative path is given, it will be interpreted to be relative to the directory containing the report.index file.
