Hi, Deanna.
Yes, SJ has a very decent command line. Just run the batch file sj_client.bat in the root client
directory after you install. One limitation is that you will have to run the client on a box that
can run a GUI, even though the CL is strictly CL. It won't run on a Sun box without X Windows
installed, for example.
You need to specify the URL for the server in the sj_client.bat file. Should be pretty easy to
figure out. Just type "help" at the prompt to get a list of commands. One other trick: One command
is not listed in the help for some reason. The command to view a list of versions of a file is
"ver [filename]".
The CL is not aware of shares, so watch out for that. I don't think it can work with the current
label architecture (it's a little bit dusty). You might end up just skipping any labels or
re-creating them in Clear Case, which will probably not be too great a burden.
One other option you might consider if you know your way around Java is the SimpleInterface class,
which provide a relatively simple way to automate the SJ client code.
Best of luck. Any chance of you open-sourcing your SJ to CC tool? It might be nice for potential
SJ users to know it's not a dead end if they decide they need to switch.
