CHICKEN-BUG(1)         DragonFly General Commands Manual        CHICKEN-BUG(1)


NAME

       chicken-bug - generates a bug report from user input


SYNOPSIS

       chicken-bug [ filename | OPTION ...  ]


OPTIONS

       -help  Show usage information.

       -to-stdout
              Write bug report to standard output instead of writing it to a
              file.

       -      Read user input from standard input, even if files are given on
              the command line.


DESCRIPTION

       chicken-bug generates a bug report file that collects user-input,
       optional files and system information obtained from the installed
       CHICKEN executables and libraries. Non-option arguments given on the
       command line are inserted into the bug report. If no option is given,
       or if - has been passed on the command line, then a description of the
       problem is read from standard input, until EOF (CTRL-D) or a line
       consisting only of "." (period) is read.

       The bug report will be written to a file in the current directory,
       which should be sent to CHICKEN maintainers as it contains various
       useful bits of information that make it easier to classify the problem
       described.

       Bug reports should be as detailed as possible. It is also very helpful
       to include code that reproduces the problem. The more detailed the
       input and the more thorough the description is, the easier you make it
       for the CHICKEN developers to help you.
