from NetBSD misc/3199:

@	Try "man error":
@
@ >   -t      Take the following argument as a suffix list.  Files whose suf-
@ >           fixes do not appear in the suffix list are not touched.  The suf-
@ >           fix list is dot separated, and ``*'' wildcards work.  Thus the
@ >           suffix list:
@ > 
@ >                 .c.y.foo*.h
@ > 
@ >           allows error to touch files ending with ``.c'', ``.y'', ``.foo*''
@ >           and ``.y''.
@		   **
