DASH-SEARCH(1)                                                  DASH-SEARCH(1)



NAME
       dash-search - match arguments against cruft filter patterns

SYNOPSIS
       dash-search [ file ] [ ... ]

DESCRIPTION
       dash-search  Reads  files  in /usr/lib/cruft/filters and tries to match
       each command argument in turn against the patterns in those files.  Any
       argument which matches is printed on standard output, prefixed with the
       name of the file which contained the pattern which it matched.

BUGS
       Uses constant-length 1000 byte buffers to  hold  filenames.  Also  uses
       recursive function calls, which are not very efficient.

SEE ALSO
       cruft(8).
