x2sys_put – Update track index database from track bin file
Synopsis
x2sys_put [ info.tbf ] TAG [ ] [ ] [ [level] ] Note: No space is allowed between the option flag and the associated arguments.
Description
x2sys_put accepts a track bin-index file created by x2sys_binlist and adds this information about the data tracks to the relevant data base. You may chose to overwrite existing data with new information for older tracks (-F) and even completely remove information for certain tracks (-D). The x2sys TAG must match the tag encoded in the info.tbf file. To inquire about tracks in the data base, use x2sys_get.Required Arguments

- -TTAG
- Specify the x2sys TAG which tracks the attributes of this data type.
Optional Arguments
- -D
- Delete all tracks found in the track bin file [Default will try to add them as new track entries].
- -F
- Replace any existing database information for these tracks with the new information in the track bin file [Default refuses to process tracks already in the database].
- -V[level] (more …)
- Select verbosity level [c].
- -^ or just –
- Print a short message about the syntax of the command, then exits (NOTE: on Windows use just –).
