NAME
     sendbug - mail a system bug report to 4bsd-bugs

SYNOPSIS
     sendbug [ address ]

DESCRIPTION
     Bug reports sent to `4bsd-bugs@Berkeley.EDU' are intercepted
     by a program which expects bug reports to conform to a stan-
     dard format.  Sendbug is a shell script  to  help	the  user
     compose and mail bug reports in the correct format.  Sendbug
     works by invoking the editor specified  by  the  environment
     variable EDITOR on a temporary copy of the bug report format
     outline. The user must fill in the  appropriate  fields  and
     exit the editor.  The default editor is vi(1).  Sendbug then
     mails the completed report  to  `4bsd-bugs@Berkeley.EDU'  or
     the address specified on the command line.

FILES
     /usr/ucb/bugformat       contains the bug report outline
