I have a small wish list for libast
1. sfopenat(), which does sfopen() with the extra arguments of
openat() to access files relative to a directory fd and NFS version 4
XATTR files.
2. AST sort should have these two options for GNU+OSX sort compatibility:
-b, --ignore-leading-blanks ignore leading blanks
-z, --zero-terminated end lines with 0 byte, not newline
(conflicts with AST sort -z, can the AST sort option be renamed?)
For Solaris /usr/bin/sort option -S compatibility:
-S kmem Specifies the maximum amount of swap-based
memory used for sorting, in kilobytes (the
default unit). kmem can also be specified
directly as a number of bytes (b), kilobytes
(k), megabytes (m), gigabytes (g), or tera-
bytes (t); or as a percentage (%) of the
installed physical memory.
This conflicts with AST sort -S, can the AST sort option be renamed to
avert conflict?
3. AST cmp should have these two options for GNU+OSX compatibility:
-b --print-bytes Print differing bytes
-n LIMIT --bytes=LIMIT Compare at most LIMIT bytes
