.SH "NAME"
edcomb \- Allows the user to modify the attributes of a combination\&.
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fBedcomb\fR\ 'u
\fBedcomb\fR {\fIcombname\fR} [\fIregionflag\ regionID\ airID\ los%\ materialID\fR]
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
Allows the user to modify the attributes of a combination\&. The
\fIcombname\fR
is the name of the combination to be modified\&. The
\fIregionflag\fR
controls whether the combination is identified as a region \- supplying either
\fIR\fR
or
\fI1\fR
for the
\fIregionflag\fR
indicates that the combination is a region; to indicate the combination is NOT a region simply supply any other character (\fIC\fR
or
\fI0\fR
are useful conventions here\&.) If the region flag is not being set, then the remainder of the attributes are ignored\&. However, the
\fBedcomb\fR
command requires that something is supplied for those arguments in order to work \- so if using
\fBedcomb\fR
to turn off the region flag on a combination simply supply 0 for each of the remaining arguments to
\fBedcomb\fR\&. If the region flag is being set, then the
\fIregion_id, aircode, los,\fR
and
\fImaterial_code\fR
are set according to the arguments supplied\&.
.SH "EXAMPLES"
.PP
The first example shows the use of the
\fBedcomb\fR
command with the
\fIR\fR
flag (region) added along with the
\fIregion_id, air_code, los\fR
and
\fImaterial_code\fR\&. The second example shows how to unset the region flag for a particular combination\&.
.PP
\fBExample\ \&1.\ \&Make a combination a region having specific attributes.\fR
.PP
mged> \fBedcomb comb1 R 1001 0 50 8\fR
.RS 4
Makes
\fIcomb1\fR
a
\fIregion\fR
and set its
\fIident \fR
to 1001, its
\fIair code\fR
to 0, its
\fIlos\fR
to 50, and its
\fImaterial code\fR
to 8\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBExample\ \&2.\ \&Unset a \fIregion\fR flag for a particular combination.\fR
.PP

mged>\fBedcomb comb1 C 0 0 0 0\fR
.PP
Unsets the
\fIregion\fR
flag for combination
\fIcomb1\fR\&.
