NAME
aideinit - create a new aide database
SYNOPSIS
aideinit [options]
DESCRIPTION
aideinit creates a new aide database. It will initialize an aide database in the default database_out location. It will then prompt you to replace your existing aide database. In most cases you will want to check for any problems before doing this.
