>Description:
I find myself doing
pkg_comp chroot pkg_delete xxx
or
pkg_comp chroot pkg_chk ...
or
(various similar, pkg_add, ...)
fairly frequently for one reason or other.
I know I could do
pkg_comp chroot
and leave a shell i the chroot, at which to type
commands (pkg_delete, ...) but for various reasons that
isn't always convenient.
The "chroot" word in the above commands is essentially
useless, not doing that would be not using pkg_comp at all.
So, I thoughit I'd see how hard it would be to make the
chroot optional, when the next command is a pkg_* type
command (it could be made optional for all unrecognised
following commands, but that makes it less effective at
catching common typos, so I thought that may be a bit too far)
>How-To-Repeat:
Use pkg_comp a lot, get frustrated by keepig forgetting to
type "chroot" in svery 2nd or third command...
>Fix:
The patch below adds the functionality I desired.
The change is trivial.
There's also a (probably lame) addition to the man page.
Someone who understands mdoc should check that, I have no
idea what I'm doing in that macro package.
And, for good measure, I also corrected a minor typo in the
man page that I happened to notice while checking.
