bk support(7.3ce) BitKeeper User's Manual bk support(7.3ce)
NAME
bk support - send a support request
SYNOPSIS
bk support [-T]
DESCRIPTION
Send a request to BitKeeper support.
The default behavior is to display the graphical version of the support
form when the DISPLAY environment variable is set (UNIX) or if it is
run on a Windows operating system. To use a text editor rather than
the GUI, use the "-T" option.
This command can be used to request support instead of mailing to sup-
port@bitkeeper.com. The advantage is that it automatically includes
the version of BitKeeper and the operating system being used, which
speeds the ability of the support team to respond to the request.
OPTIONS
-T Use a text editor rather than the default graphical tool to fill
out a support report.
EXAMPLE
An example text template looks like this:
Program:
[cset, get, delta, etc. or what you were doing, like 'installing']
Release:
beta10-pre1
OS:
[Linux, IRIX, NT, etc]
Etc.
and the filled out report should look like this (note that the data
goes after the tags, not on the same line):
Program:
support
Release:
pre-2.0-2
OS:
All
Etc.
