sendbug − mail a system bug report to 4bsd-bugs

SYNOPSIS

sendbug [ address ]

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.  It 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 to the address specified on the command line.
