18 /* Usage: pathchk [-p] [--portability] path...
20 For each PATH, print a message if any of these conditions are false:
21 * all existing leading directories in PATH have search (execute) permission
22 * strlen (PATH) <= PATH_MAX
23 * strlen (each_directory_in_PATH) <= NAME_MAX
26 0 All PATH names passed all of the tests.
30 -p, --portability Instead of performing length checks on the
31 underlying filesystem, test the length of the
32 pathname and its components against the POSIX.1
33 minimum limits for portability, _POSIX_NAME_MAX
34 and _POSIX_PATH_MAX in 2.9.2. Also check that
35 the pathname contains no character not in the
36 portable filename character set.
