scljconv(1)

NAME
scljconv - Resource file converter for sclj

SYNOPSIS
scljconv [ -d <dir> ]

DESCRIPTION
scljconv is a Perl script to convert account information from various clients, mainly older versions of sclj, to the new format required by sclj 3.0 and above.

scljconv is fairly automatic. It will search for files which it knows how to convert, guess their type, and attempt to convert them. The original files are unchanged. See the Files section below for an exact list of files and formats.

For more information about LiveJournal itself, see <http://www.livejournal.com>.

OPTIONS

-d <dir>
    Change the configuration directory from ~/.sclj3 to <dir>.

ENVIRONMENT

HOME
    The files for sclj 3 are created under $HOME/.sclj3, and other files are searched for relative to $HOME.

FILES
scljconv looks for and understands the following files:

~/.livejournal.rc
    A file compatible with the original Perl client, or a file in JLJ format. For information on converting JLJ files, see Limitations below.

~/.lj/rc
    The rc file used by sclj 2.4-pre.

~/.livejournal/rc
    The rc file used by sclj 2.x beginning with 2.4.

LIMITATIONS
When converting from an rc file used by jlj, some options do not have exact equivalents. For instance, "prompt" is meaningless, since sclj always brings up the menu. For those options, "prompt" is ignored. Similarly, there is no equivalent of the Jerry formatter in sclj, so Jerry formatting is treated as paragraph-mode in sclj. Paragraphs will be made at blank lines, but none of the Jerry wiki formatting will be available. JLJ profiles are not converted.

BUGS
Bug reports should be posted to SourceForge <http://sourceforge.net/projects/sclj/> or LiveJournal <http://www.livejournal.com/community/sclj/>; failing that, email me at <mailto:loonxtall@hotmail.com> with "sclj" in the subject.
