_p_a_t_h_c_o_n_f provides a shell interface to the _pppp_aaaa_tttt_hhhh_cccc_oooo_nnnn_ffff(2) system call for
determining the current value of a configurable limit or option
(_v_a_r_i_a_b_l_e) that is associated with a file or directory.
The _n_a_m_e argument represents the variable to be queried. The list of
supported variables can be obtained by invoking _pppp_aaaa_tttt_hhhh_cccc_oooo_nnnn_ffff without any
arguments. By default, the values pertain to the root file system
(``/''), to query the values of a different file or directory, use the _----_pppp
option.
When invoked with a _n_a_m_e argument, _p_a_t_h_c_o_n_f displays the system value of
each of the requested variables, one per line. Otherwise, it displays
the entire set with accompanying labels. A printed value of -1 means
that there is no limit for _n_a_m_e for the given _p_a_t_h. If an error is
encountered from _pppp_aaaa_tttt_hhhh_cccc_oooo_nnnn_ffff(2), the system error message is printed in
place of the value.
_pppp_aaaa_tttt_hhhh_cccc_oooo_nnnn_ffff exits with a status of 1 if any errors are encountered,
otherwise it exits with status 0.
