NAME
	find_libs - find pathnames of libraries

SYNOPSIS
	find_libs [ -Lpath ...	][ -lname ...  ]
	find_libs -Help
	find_libs -VERSion

DESCRIPTION
	The find_libs program is used to find the actual pathname of a library
	specified on a cc(1) command line.  This allows cook(1) to know these
	dependencies.

OPTIONS
	The following options are understood.

	-Lpath
		Specify a path to search for libraries on.  If more than one
		is specified, they will be scanned in the order given before
		the standard /usr/lib and /lib places.	This is like the same
		argument to cc(1), and the usual find_libs option abbreviation
		rules do not apply.

	-lname
		Name a library to be searched for.  This is like the same
		argument to cc(1), and the usual find_libs option abbreviation
		rules do not apply.

	-Help
		Give some information on how to use the find_libs command.

	-VERSion
		Tell the version of the find_libs command currently executing.

	All other options will result in a diagnostic error.

	All options may be abbreviated; the abbreviation is documented as the
	upper case letters, all lower case letters and underscores (_) are
	optional.  You must use consecutive sequences of optional letters.

	All options are case insensitive, you may type them in upper case or
	lower case or a combination of both, case is not important.

	For example: the arguments "-help", "-HEL" and "-h" are all
	interpreted to mean the -Help option.  The argument "-hlp" will not be
	understood, because consecutive optional characters were not supplied.

	Options and other command line arguments may be mixed arbitrarily on
	the command line.

	The GNU long option names are understood.  Since all option names for
	find_libs are long, this means ignoring the extra leading '-'.	The
	"--option=value" convention is also understood.

EXIT STATUS
	The find_libs command will exit with a status of 1 on any error.  The
	find_libs command will only exit with a status of 0 if there are no
	errors.
