DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The cp_dirs configuration file  determines  the  locations
       for the following set of database or data files: The character
 attribute database for user-defined characters  (see
       cedit(1) and cgen(1)) Font database files and preload font
       database files for user-defined characters

              Font database files are used by the On-Demand Loading
  (ODL)  mechanism.  Preload font database files
              are used with terminals that are designed  specifically
 for multibyte characters. Refer to odl(5) for
              more information.  BDF and PCF  format  font  files
              for user-defined characters

              These  files  are used for graphical user interface
              displays.  Input key  sequence  databases  used  by
              DECwindows and CDE input method servers and by terminals
 that are designed specifically for multibyte
              characters.   Collating  value  database  used  for
              sorting (see asort(1)) Phrase databases  used  with
              both  the  software  and  the hardware phrase input
              methods (see phrase(1) and sim(5)).

       In the cp_dirs file, lines beginning with the #  character
       are  treated as comments.  Each line that is not a comment
       constitutes an entry and adheres to the following format:

       service-name std-path sys-path usr-path

       In this format: Can be one of the following values: Specifies
 the BDF format font files for GUI interfaces.  Specifies
 the collating value database.   Specifies  the  input
       key sequence databases.  Specifies the ODL font databases.
       Specifies PCF format font files for GUI interfaces.  Specifies
  the raw font files used to preload multibyte terminals.
  Specifies the phrase input method database.  Specifies
  the  character  attribute  database.   Specifies the
       location of the  database  files  for  standard  character
       sets.   Specifies the location of the system-wide database
       files for user-defined characters.  Specifies the location
       of private database files for user-defined characters.

       The std-path, sys-path, and usr-path values must be one of
       the following: An absolute pathname (that begins with /) A
