Modified files:
usr.bin/whereis Makefile whereis.1 whereis.c
Added files:
usr.bin/whereis pathnames.h
Removed files:
usr.bin/whereis whereis.pl
Log:
Complete rewrite, once again.
This is basically a ``C compilation'' of the former whereis.pl file,
employing the same algorithms, and aiming at being mostly
UI-compatible to the old (legally tainted) 4.3BSD whereis(1). In
comparision, the 4.4BSD-Lite version is just another variant of
which(1) only, where in particular the option to search for source
directories is sorely missing.
While i was at it, i added two more options which i contemplated doing
long since. -x will suppress the run of locate(1) to find sources
that could not be found otherwise, potentially saving a lot of time
(but obviously, risking to not find some sources that are well hidden
in the tree). -q will omit the leading name of the query, so in
particular, you can now do something like:
cd `whereis -qs ls`
I'd explicitly like to thank johan for his review which was quite a
bit more than an average review, including sending me a lot of diffs.
