NAME
     wtf -- translates acronyms for you

SYNOPSIS
     wtf [-f dbfile] [-t type] [is] acronym ...

DESCRIPTION
     The wtf utility displays the expansion of the acronyms specified on the command line.  If the acronym is unknown, wtf will check to see if
     the acronym is known by the whatis(1) command.

     If ``is'' is specified on the command line, it will be ignored, allowing the fairly natural ``wtf is WTF'' usage.

     The following options are available:

     -f dbfile
	   Overrides the default acronym database, bypassing the value of the ACRONYMDB variable.

     -t type
	   Specifies the acronym's type.  Simply put, it makes the program use the acronyms database named
	   /usr/share/games/bsdgames/acronyms.type, where type is given by the argument.

ENVIRONMENT
     ACRONYMDB	The default acronym database may be overridden by setting the environment variable ACRONYMDB to the name of a file in the proper
		format (acronym[tab]meaning).

FILES
     /usr/share/games/bsdgames/acronyms       default acronym database.
     /usr/share/games/bsdgames/acronyms.comp  computer-related acronym database.
