NAME

       doschk - checks filenames for SYSV and DOS compatibility

SYNOPSIS

       doschk filename ...

DESCRIPTION

       This program is intended as a utility to help software developers ensure that their source file names are
       distinguishable  on MS-DOS and 14-character SYSV platforms.  To perform this task, doschk reads a list of
       filenames and produces a report of all the conflicts that would arise if the files were transferred to  a
       MS-DOS or SYSV platform.

       To use this program, you must feed it a list of filenames in this format:

            dir

            dir/file1.ext

            dir/file2.exe

            dir/dir2

            dir/dir2/file3.ext

       If  the  list  does  not  include  the  directory-only lines (like dir/dir2) then their names will not be
       checked for uniqueness, else they will be.  Typical uses of this program are like these:

            find . -print | doschk

            tar tf file.tar | doschk

       If this program produces no output, then all your files are MS-DOS compatible.  Any output  messages  are
       designed  to  be  self-explanatory and indicate cases where the files will not transfer to MS-DOS without
       problems.
