nmscatgets — Get localized catalog strings for NNMi

SYNOPSIS

nmscatgets [ -f CATFILE -s SETNUM -m MSGNUM -d DEFAULT ]

DESCRIPTION

The nmscatgets command is used to query a message catalog and retrieve a localized (non-English) string from that catalog file. This string can then be displayed, for example, from a perl script. The caller must know the message catalog containing the desired localized strings, as well as the set-number and message-number within that file. If the specified message is not found, the default (English) value is returned.

The nmscatgets command is mostly used internally by other NNMi or HP-provided scripts. It doesn't provide much value for other uses.

Parameters

The nmscatgets command recognizes the following options.

-f FILE

The file name containing the localized strings to query.

-s SETNUM

The set number within the catalog file, generally "1".

-m MSGNUM

The message number within the catalog file.

-d DEFAULT

The default (English) string to be printed if one or more of the FILE, SETNUM, or MSGNUM values are not available.

RETURN VALUE

The nmscatgets command returns the localized string when the FILE, SETNUM, and MSGNUM values are all valid. Otherwise the nmscatgets command returns the DEFAULT (English) string provided to the command.
