75 The <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;database file is called <TT>project.lookup</TT> and
76 contains lookup tables for the various projects that may be
77 installed on your system. The database is read
78 during a <TT>scram list</TT> command. Usually, the database file
79 lives in the <TT>scramdb</TT> directory of
80 your <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;installation area and is accessible to all <SMALL>SCRAM</SMALL>&nbsp;
81 versions. The database directory is created automatically at
82 installation time. The default location can be overridden with the
83 environment variable <TT>SCRAM_LOOKUPDB</TT>.

90 A project can be installed into the database using the command
91
92 <P>
93 <TT>scram install</TT>
94
95 [<I>project_name</I>] [<I>project_version</I>]
96
97 <P>
98 This command is usually executed in the project area of the
99 project (and version) to be installed. If the project name and
100 version are given then these will be used in the database in place of
101 the project defaults.

112
113 <TT>project_name</TT>&nbsp;<TT>project_version</TT>
114
115 <P>
116 This command can be executed anywhere but will only work if the
117 user has write permissions on the <TT>project.lookup</TT> file.

125 Other databases can be linked to the local installation database
126 using the command
127
128 <P>
129 <TT>scram db link</TT>
130
131 &nbsp;&lt;<I>otherdb</I>&gt;
132
133 <P>
134 This is often useful if a local copy of a project is maintained
135 for development but a released project is required for access to
136 configuration information and libraries. All projects listed in the
137 linked database will be shown by <TT>scram list</TT>. Note that
138 <TT>scram install</TT> and <TT>scram remove</TT> commands will not
139 affect databases that are linked in.
