Check out a file for editing

To check out a copy of one of your files for editing use the command:

   sccs get -e filename

SCCS will record your login name. No other users can checkout this file but they can see who it is checked out to. If a read-only copy of this file already exists then it will be overwritten.

To check out a copy of each of your files use the command:

   sccs get -e SCCS
