}
} lint(1)
}
} NAME
} bellybutton lint - a ZOT program checker/verifier
}
} SYNOPSIS
} lint [options] supplicant ...
}
} DESCRIPTION
} lint attempts to detect features in ZOT setup files that are
} likely to be dangerous to the user, misdirected or insufficiently
} messy. It also ensures the fundamental laws of humorous zottage
} are followed - leaves smoking boots, charred outlines on the wall
} etc. ZOT problems currently detected include non-lethal ZOTting,
} undercharged batteries, bad aim and ZOTs which aren't half as fun
} as dropping a ton of custard on the supplicant.
}
} Arguments whose names end with .s are assumed to be supplicants.
} Arguments whose names end with .wc are assumed to be supplicants
} who've asked yet another woodchuck question. .wc supplicants are
} treated with the contempt and overkill they deserve.
}
} lint takes all the .s and .wc supplicants and ZOTs them in their
} command-line order. By default, ZOT appends the standard grovel
} criticism (badgrovel.zt) to the end of each ZOT. However, if the
} -p option is used, the criticism is inserted five minutes before
} the ZOT, to give the supplicant plenty of time to realise what
} a foolish mistake they've made.
}
} Options
} Any number of lint options can be used, in any order, intermixed
} with file name arguments.
} -p Give supplicant time to think about his sins.
} -x Terminate with extreme prejudice - ignore any innocent
} bystanders the supplicant may attempt to hide behind.
} -m Let off a small ZOT to make the supplicant think you
} missed and he got away with it.
} -ztype Specify the type of ZOT to be used. The type can be
} one of the following letters:
} s Standard ANSI ZOT. Bolt of Oracular energy that
} disintegrates the supplicant. This option is
} currently the default.
} d Deep fry. Leaves supplicant in suitable state
} for sale in a small Chinese restaurant.
} o Overkill. Not only ZOTs supplicant, but also
} whichever town/city he happens to be in.
} l Lightly done. Give the supplicant a 30% chance
} of survival.
}
} WARNINGS
} lint with the oracle.wc argument has not been tested, and it
} would probably be a good idea to steer well clear of it. Also,
} we've been asked to avoid lint with wildcards after that time
} we wondered what lint -o * would do.
}
} SEE ALSO
} zot(1), unzot(1), custard(1).

} So there you have it, supplicant. You owe the Oracle an upgrade to
} 5.5.2 beta.
