Extracting files to your current directory
When extracting a file with the -yank parameter, PROLIB discards everything but the filename from the file's pathname. For example, if you added a file using the pathname /usr/apps/proc1.r, PROLIB discards /usr/apps from the pathname and places proc1.r in your current working directory.
This is the syntax for the PROLIB command to extract files from a library using the -yank parameter:
