# Configuration for grep-dctrl.  The config line format is
# line-oriented.  Each line defines one executable name - default
# input file pair; the elements of the pair are in order and separated
# by whitespace.  The hash '#' begins a comment that lasts to the end
# of line.  Empty lines are ignored.

# There is some magic in the  default input file name field.
# If it starts with
#  @exec, the rest of the name is given to /bin/sh -c and its stdout is 
#         used as input, if no explicit file name is given on the command
#         line
# A double @ at the start of the field denotes a single @ in the actual 
# name.

# Template:
#   <executable name>   <default input file name>

# The following line used to be required, but it is now hardcoded.
# grep-dctrl      -

# The following two pairs define common aliases for grep-dctrl.
grep-status     /var/lib/dpkg/status
grep-available  /var/lib/dpkg/available

# A new feature: grepping apt's available information
