>&#13;      The query.conf file contains the mapping from options to field
82 83 84 85 86 87
      names and comparison types.  Quoted option names are "grepped"
      for, so it should be easy to edit this file.  Comments (#) have
      no effect; you must make sure these lines do not contain any
      quoted "option"

>&#13;      buglist is a shell script which submits a Bugzilla query and
89 90 91 92 93 94 95
      writes the resulting HTML page to stdout.  It supports both
      short options, (such as "-Afoo" or "-Rbar") and long options
      (such as "--assignedto=foo" or "--reporter=bar").  If the first
      character of an option is not "-", it is treated as if it were
      prefixed with "--default=".

      This is equivalent to the "Change Columns" option when you list
      bugs in buglist.cgi.  If you have already used Bugzilla, use
      <B

CLASS="command"
101 102 103 104 105
>grep COLUMLIST ~/.netscape/cookies</B
> to see
      your current COLUMNLIST setting.

106
>&#13;      bugs is a simple shell script which calls buglist and extracts
107 108 109 110
      the bug numbers from the output.  Adding the prefix
      "http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?bug_id=" turns the bug
      list into a working link if any bugs are found. Counting bugs is
      easy.  Pipe the results through <B

>sed -e 's/,/ /g' | wc |
