+if - "use" a Perl module if a condition holds (also can "no" a module)
+The "if" module is used to conditionally load or unload another module. The construct
+will load MODULE only if CONDITION evaluates to true. The above statement has no effect unless
+"CONDITION" is true. If the CONDITION does evaluate to true, then the above line has the same effect as:

+mev [ options ]
+The `mev' program is part of the gpm package. The information below is extracted from the texinfo file,
+which is the preferred source of information.
+The mev program is modeled after xev. It prints to stdout the mouse console events it gets.
+mev's default behaviour is to get anything, but command line switches can be used to set the various
+fields in the Gpm_Connect structure, in order to customize the program's behaviour. I'm using mev to han‐
+dle mouse events to Emacs.
+Command line switches for mev are the following:
+%
+last, lastb - show a listing of last logged in users
+last [options] [username...] [tty...]
+lastb [options] [username...] [tty...]
+last searches back through the /var/log/wtmp file (or the file designated by the -f option) and displays
+a list of all users logged in (and out) since that file was created. One or more usernames and/or ttys
+be abbreviated, thus last 0 is the same as last tty0.
+When catching a SIGINT signal (generated by the interrupt key, usually control-C) or a SIGQUIT signal,
+terminate.

+mandb - create or update the manual page index caches
+mandb [-dqsucpt?V] [-C file] [manpath]
+mandb [-dqsut] [-C file] -f filename ...
+mandb is used to initialise or manually update index database caches that are usually maintained by man.
+The caches contain information relevant to the current state of the manual page system and the informa‐
+tion stored within them is used by the man-db utilities to enhance their speed and functionality.
+When creating or updating an index, mandb will warn of bad ROFF .so requests, bogus manual page filenames
+and manual pages from which the whatis cannot be parsed.
+Supplying mandb with an optional colon-delimited path will override the internal system manual page hier‐

+lnstat - unified linux network statistics
+lnstat [options]
+lnstat is a generalized and more feature-complete replacement for the old rtstat program. It is commonly
+used to periodically print a selection of statistical values exported by the kernel. In addition to
+routing cache statistics, it supports any kind of statistics the linux kernel exports via a file in
+/proc/net/stat/.
+Each file in /proc/net/stat/ contains a header line listing the column names. These names are used by
+lnstat as keys for selecting which statistics to print. For every CPU present in the system, a line fol‐
+lows which lists the actual values for each column of the file. lnstat sums these values up (which in
+fact are counters) before printing them. After each interval, only the difference to the last value is

+library. It is essentially a stripped-down, caching-only name server that answers queries using the BIND
+9 lightweight resolver protocol rather than the DNS protocol.

+lvmetad — LVM metadata cache daemon
+lvmetad [-l level[,level...]] [-p pidfile_path] [-s socket_path] [-t timeout_value] [-f] [-h] [-V] [-?]
+The lvmetad daemon caches LVM metadata so that LVM commands can read metadata from the cache rather than
+the normal work of the system. lvmetad can be a disadvantage when disk event notifications from the sys‐
+tem are unreliable.
+lvmetad does not read metadata from disks itself. Instead, it relies on an LVM command, like pvscan
+--cache, to read metadata from disks and send it to lvmetad to be cached.
+New LVM disks that appear on the system must be scanned before lvmetad knows about them. If lvmetad does
+not know about a disk, then LVM commands using lvmetad will also not know about it. When disks are added
+or removed from the system, lvmetad must be updated.

+lscpu gathers CPU architecture information from sysfs, /proc/cpuinfo and any applicable architecture-spe‐
+cific libraries (e.g. librtas on Powerpc). The command output can be optimized for parsing or for easy
+readability by humans. The information includes, for example, the number of CPUs, threads, cores, sock‐
+ets, and Non-Uniform Memory Access (NUMA) nodes. There is also information about the CPU caches and
+cache sharing, family, model, bogoMIPS, byte order, and stepping.
+In virtualized environments, the CPU architecture information displayed reflects the configuration of the
+guest operating system which is typically different from the physical (host) system. On architectures
+that support retrieving physical topology information, lscpu also displays the number of physical sock‐
+ets, chips, cores in the host system.

+DNSSEC policy can be read from a configuration file (default /etc/dnssec-policy.conf), from which the key
+parameters, publication and rollover schedule, and desired coverage duration for any given zone can be
+default policy used for all zones.
+When dnssec-keymgr runs, it examines the DNSSEC keys for one or more zones, comparing their timing
+metadata against the policies for those zones. If key settings do not conform to the DNSSEC policy (for
+example, because the policy has been changed), they are automatically corrected.

+In addition, cryptsetup provides limited support for the use of historic loopaes volumes and for True‐
+Crypt compatible volumes.

+dnssec-coverage [-K directory] [-l length] [-f file] [-d DNSKEY TTL] [-m max TTL] [-r interval]
+[-c compilezone path] [-k] [-z] [zone...]
+dnssec-coverage verifies that the DNSSEC keys for a given zone or a set of zones have timing metadata set
+properly to ensure no future lapses in DNSSEC coverage.
+If zone is specified, then keys found in the key repository matching that zone are scanned, and an
+ordered list is generated of the events scheduled for that key (i.e., publication, activation,
+inactivation, deletion). The list of events is walked in order of occurrence. Warnings are generated if
+any event is scheduled which could cause the zone to enter a state in which validation failures might
+occur: for example, if the number of published or active keys for a given algorithm drops to zero, or if
+a key is deleted from the zone too soon after a new key is rolled, and cached data signed by the prior
+key has not had time to expire from resolver caches.

+protocol. It is designed to be a reliable "back-end" tool that can be used directly or easily driven by
+other programs and scripts. At the same time, it is a feature-rich network debugging and exploration
+tool, since it can create almost any kind of connection you would need and has several interesting built-

+cryptsetup - manage plain dm-crypt and LUKS encrypted volumes
+cryptsetup <options> <action> <action args>
+cryptsetup is used to conveniently setup dm-crypt managed device-mapper mappings. These include plain dm-

+more features than plain dm-crypt. On the other hand, the header is visible and vulnerable to damage.
+In addition, cryptsetup provides limited support for the use of historic loopaes volumes and for True‐
+Crypt compatible volumes.
+PLAIN DM-CRYPT OR LUKS?

+The decision to support cat pages is that of the local administrator, who must provide suitable directo‐

+The options available to catman are the manual page hierarchies and sections to pre-format. The default
+hierarchies are those specified as system hierarchies in the man-db configuration file, and the default

+dnssec-coverage verifies that the DNSSEC keys for a given zone or a set of zones have timing metadata set
+properly to ensure no future lapses in DNSSEC coverage.
+If zone is specified, then keys found in the key repository matching that zone are scanned, and an
+ordered list is generated of the events scheduled for that key (i.e., publication, activation,
+inactivation, deletion). The list of events is walked in order of occurrence. Warnings are generated if
+any event is scheduled which could cause the zone to enter a state in which validation failures might
+occur: for example, if the number of published or active keys for a given algorithm drops to zero, or if

+glib-genmarshal - C code marshaller generation utility for GLib closures
+glib-genmarshal [OPTION...] [FILE...]
+glib-genmarshal is a small utility that generates C code marshallers for callback functions of the
+GClosure mechanism in the GObject sublibrary of GLib. The marshaller functions have a standard signature,
+they get passed in the invoking closure, an array of value structures holding the callback function
+parameters and a value structure for the return value of the callback. The marshaller is then responsible
+to call the respective C code function of the closure with all the parameters on the stack and to collect
+its return value.
+glib-genmarshal takes a list of marshallers to generate as input. The marshaller list is either read from
+standard input or from files passed as additional arguments on the command line.

+make - GNU make utility to maintain groups of programs
+make [OPTION]... [TARGET]...
+The make utility will determine automatically which pieces of a large program need to be recompiled, and

+written by Richard Stallman and Roland McGrath, and is currently maintained by Paul Smith. Our examples
+show C programs, since they are very common, but you can use make with any programming language whose
+compiler can be run with a shell command. In fact, make is not limited to programs. You can use it to
+describe any task where some files must be updated automatically from others whenever the others change.
+To prepare to use make, you must write a file called the makefile that describes the relationships among
+files in your program, and the states the commands for updating each file. In a program, typically the

+bc is a language that supports arbitrary precision numbers with interactive execution of statements.
+There are some similarities in the syntax to the C programming language. A standard math library is
+available by command line option. If requested, the math library is defined before processing any files.
+bc starts by processing code from all the files listed on the command line in the order listed. After
+all files have been processed, bc reads from the standard input. All code is executed as it is read.
+(If a file contains a command to halt the processor, bc will never read from the standard input.)
+document describes the language accepted by this processor. Extensions will be identified as such.

+taskset - set or retrieve a process's CPU affinity
+taskset [options] mask command [argument...]
+taskset [options] -p [mask] pid
+taskset is used to set or retrieve the CPU affinity of a running process given its pid, or to launch a
+new command with a given CPU affinity. CPU affinity is a scheduler property that "bonds" a process to a
+given set of CPUs on the system. The Linux scheduler will honor the given CPU affinity and the process
+scheduler attempts to keep processes on the same CPU as long as practical for performance reasons.
+Therefore, forcing a specific CPU affinity is useful only in certain applications.
+The CPU affinity is represented as a bitmask, with the lowest order bit corresponding to the first logi‐

+gropdf - PDF driver for groff
+gropdf [-delvs] [-F dir] [-p papersize] [-y foundry] [-u [cmapfile]] [files ...]
+It is possible to have whitespace between a command line option and its parameter.
+gropdf translates the output of GNU troff to PDF. Normally gropdf should be invoked by using the groff
+command with a -Tpdf option. If no files are given, gropdf reads the standard input. A filename of -
+also causes gropdf to read the standard input. PDF output is written to the standard output. When
+gropdf is run by groff options can be passed to gropdf using groff's -P option.

+ksu is a Kerberized version of the su program that has two missions: one is to securely change the real
+and effective user ID to that of the target user, and the other is to create a new security context.
+For the sake of clarity, all references to and attributes of the user invoking the program will start
+with "source" (e.g., "source user", "source cache", etc.).

+xfs_metadump - copy XFS filesystem metadata to a file
+xfs_metadump [ -aefFgow ] [ -m max_extents ] ] [ -l logdev ] source target
+xfs_metadump -V
+xfs_metadump is a debugging tool that copies the metadata from an XFS filesystem to a file. The source
+argument must be the pathname of the device or file containing the XFS filesystem and the target argument
+output to be redirected to another program such as a compression application.
+xfs_metadump does not alter the source filesystem in any way. The target image is a contiguous (non-
+sparse) file containing all the filesystem's metadata and indexes to where the blocks were copied from.

+mkfs.btrfs is used to create the btrfs filesystem on a single or multiple devices. <device> is typically
+a block device but can be a file-backed image as well. Multiple devices are grouped by UUID of the
+filesystem.
+Before mounting such filesystem, the kernel module must know all the devices either via preceding

+runlevel - Print previous and current SysV runlevel
+runlevel [options...]
+"Runlevels" are an obsolete way to start and stop groups of services used in SysV init. systemd provides
+a compatibility layer that maps runlevels to targets, and associated binaries like runlevel.
+Nevertheless, only one runlevel can be "active" at a given time, while systemd can activate multiple
+targets concurrently, so the mapping to runlevels is confusing and only approximate. Runlevels should not
+be used in new code, and are mostly useful as a shorthand way to refer the matching systemd targets in

+cryptsetup - manage plain dm-crypt and LUKS encrypted volumes
+cryptsetup <options> <action> <action args>
+cryptsetup is used to conveniently setup dm-crypt managed device-mapper mappings. These include plain dm-

+more features than plain dm-crypt. On the other hand, the header is visible and vulnerable to damage.
+In addition, cryptsetup provides limited support for the use of historic loopaes volumes and for True‐
+Crypt compatible volumes.
+PLAIN DM-CRYPT OR LUKS?

+dnssec-coverage verifies that the DNSSEC keys for a given zone or a set of zones have timing metadata set
+properly to ensure no future lapses in DNSSEC coverage.
+If zone is specified, then keys found in the key repository matching that zone are scanned, and an
+ordered list is generated of the events scheduled for that key (i.e., publication, activation,
+inactivation, deletion). The list of events is walked in order of occurrence. Warnings are generated if
+any event is scheduled which could cause the zone to enter a state in which validation failures might
+occur: for example, if the number of published or active keys for a given algorithm drops to zero, or if

+glib-genmarshal - C code marshaller generation utility for GLib closures
+glib-genmarshal [OPTION...] [FILE...]
+glib-genmarshal is a small utility that generates C code marshallers for callback functions of the
+GClosure mechanism in the GObject sublibrary of GLib. The marshaller functions have a standard signature,
+they get passed in the invoking closure, an array of value structures holding the callback function
+parameters and a value structure for the return value of the callback. The marshaller is then responsible
+to call the respective C code function of the closure with all the parameters on the stack and to collect
+its return value.
+glib-genmarshal takes a list of marshallers to generate as input. The marshaller list is either read from
+standard input or from files passed as additional arguments on the command line.

+used to keep track of incremental updates to the principal database. The update log file contains the
+slave KDC servers. When updates occur, they are logged to this file. Subsequently any KDC slave config‐
+ured for incremental updates will request the current data from the master KDC and update their log file
+with any updates returned.
+The kproplog command requires read access to the update log file. It will display update entries only
+for the KDC it runs on.
+If no options are specified, kproplog displays a summary of the update log. If invoked on the master,
