Execute Universal Message Translator from UNIX

The following figure illustrates the execution of Universal Message Translator from UNIX.

Although the command is shown on two lines, it should be entered on one line at the command prompt or within a script, or it can be continued within the script with the UNIX continuation character \.

The -table option points to the file, which defines the return codes with which to end this process, based on matching text.

The first column of the file defines the text to match; the second defines the return code to set if the matching text exists in the file defined by the -file option.

The -level option turns on messaging. All messages will be written to stdout.
