DESCRIPTION

Bug reports sent to ‘4bsd-bugs@BERKELEY’ are intercepted by a program which expects bug reports to conform to a standard format.  Sendbug is a shell script to help the user compose and mail bug reports in the correct format.  Sendbug works by invoking vi(1) on a temporary copy of the bug report format outline. The user must fill in the appropriate fields and exit vi. Sendbug then mails the completed report to ‘4bsd-bugs@BERKELEY’ or the address specified on the command line.
