When invoked without arguments, prints the contents of all current files in most recent first, with each preceded by an appropriate header.

determined by the environment variable only files more recent than this currency time are considered ``current.''
Options

Print all items, regardless of currency.
The stored time is not changed.
Report the names of the current items without printing their contents,
and without changing the stored time.
