NAME
cpif - selectively update files
SYNOPSIS
cpif [-eq|-ne] file ...
DESCRIPTION
cpif is
an auxiliary tool for use with notangle(1) and
make(1). cpif compares its standard input to
each of the named files, overwriting the file if the
comparison succeeds or if the named file does not exist. If
neither -eq or -ne is specified, the default
is -ne. Typical usage is in the following default
rule, suitable for use in a Makefile.
.nw.h: ; notangle -Rheader $*.nw | cpif $*.h
