I had occasion to look at the uClibc script "getent" and felt compelled to clean out the cargo-cult programming style. I believe that this version is clearer, and I've added some minor features while I was in there: * usage clause, if no arguments or "--help" requested * original version appears to have been intending to "exit 2" on failure to match, but didn't * basic, probably good enough, support for ethers and netgroups * faster ;-) [as if that matters for this script]
