!!!WTF !!NAME __wtf__ - translates acronyms for you !!SYNOPSIS __wtf__ [[-__f __''dbfile'' ] [[-__t __''type'' ] [[''is'' ] ''acronym ...'' !!DESCRIPTION The __wtf__ utility displays the expansion of the acronyms specified on the command line. If the acronym is unknown, __wtf__ will check to see if the acronym is known by the whatis(1) command. If “is” is specified on the command line, it will be ignored, allowing the fairly natural “wtf is WTF” usage. The following options are available: ;__-f __''dbfile'' : Overrides the default acronym database, bypassing the value of the __ACRONYMDB__ variable. ;__-t __''type'' : Specifies the acronym's type. Simply put, it makes the program use the acronyms database named /usr/share/games/bsdgames/acronyms.type where ''type'' is given by the argument. !!ENVIRONMENT ;__ACRONYMDB__ : The default acronym database may be overridden by setting the environment variable __ACRONYMDB__ to the name of a file in the proper format (acronym[[tab]meaning). !!FILES ;__/usr/share/games/bsdgames/acronyms __ : default acronym database. ;__/usr/share/games/bsdgames/acronyms.comp __ : computer-related acronym database. !!SEE ALSO whatis(1) !!HISTORY __wtf__ first appeared in NetBSD 1.5. BSD April 25, 2003 ----
