NAME
       mkzonedb - Utility create a zone file for isdnlog

SYNOPSIS
       mkzonedb -r zonefile -d database [-v] [-V] [-o Oz] [-l len]

DESCRIPTION
       mkzonedb	 reads	a  text	 file  with zone (area code) information, and
       writes it in a special format to the database file so that other	 apps
       such as isdnlog can easily access the data.

       This  data is used to determine in what "zone" a given area code is in
       relation to another, to see what rate applies to a call between	these
       area codes ("is the call a local call").

       This  utility  is really only used during the building of the isdnlog-
       data package, but it may be useful for those who want to create	their
       own custom tables.

OPTIONS
       -r zonefile
	      the  text file with the zone information.	 Use "-" for standard
	      input.


       -d database
	      the output database filename


       -v     verbose mode


       -V     show version information, and quit (don’t do anything)


       -o Oz  Use "Oz" area  zone.  Default  is	 1.  (What  does  this	mean,
	      exactly?)


       -l len "len" is the length of areacodes.
	      If  5  or	 more  is given, then more space is allocated for the
	      internal tables (40000 instead of 10000 numbers allowed). Other
	      values aren’t really used.
