If no arguments are specified, +.B lastcomm +will print info +about all of the commands in +.I acct +(the record file). If called with one or more of +.I command-name, +.I user-name, +or +.I terminal-name, +only records containing those items will be displayed. For +example, to find out which users used command `a.out' +and which users were logged into `tty0', type: +.ce +lastcomm a.out tty0 +.ce 0 +.LP +This will print any entry for which `a.out' or `tty0' +matches in any of the record's fields (command, name, or terminal). If +you want to find only items that match *all* of the arguments on the command +line, you must use the '\-strict-match' option. For example, to list +all of the executions of command +.IR a.out " by user " root " on terminal " tty0, +type: +.ce +lastcomm \-\-strict-match \-\-command a.out \-\-user root \-\-tty tty0 +.ce 0 +.LP +The order of the arguments is not important. +.LP +For each entry the following information is printed: + + command name of the process + + flags, as recorded by the system accounting routines: + S -- command executed by super-user + F -- command executed after a fork but without a following exec + C -- command run in PDP-11 compatibility mode (VAX only) + D -- command terminated with the generation of a core file + X -- command was terminated with the signal SIGTERM + + the name of the user who ran the process + + time the process started +.SH OPTIONS +.PD 0 +.TP +.B \-\-strict\-match +Print only entries that match *all* of the arguments on the command +line. +.TP +.B \-\-print\-controls +Print control characters. +.TP +.BI \-\-user " name" +List records for user with +.I name. +This is useful if you're trying +to match a username that happens to be the same as a command (e.g., +.I ed +). +.TP +.BI \-\-command " name" +List records for command +.I name. +.TP +.BI \-\-tty " name" +List records for tty +.I name. +.TP +.BI \-\-forwards +Read file forwards instead of backwards.
