- X# NAME
- X# whats - lookup acronym/abbreviation in database
- X#
- X# SYNOPSIS
- X# whats [acronym [defn...]]
- X#
- X# DESCRIPTION
- X# Whats, without any arguments, prompts for an acronym to look up.
- X#
- X# With one argument, whats prints all entries from the database
- X# that match the argument. If no matches are found, whats
- X# prompts for expansion of the acronym or abbreviation.
- X#
- X# With more than one argument, whats scans the database for
- X# entries matching the first argument. If any matches are found,
- X# whats prints the matching entries and asks if the remaining
- X# arguments should be added as a new entry. If no matches are
- X# found, a new entry is created for the first argument with the
- X# remaining arguments forming the expansion.
- X#
- X# FILES
- X# acron or $ACRON
- X#
- X# BUGS/DEFICIENCIES
- X# Not blindingly fast.
- X# Not tested under System V. (Uses "echo -n", "grep -i")
