doschk - check filenames for DOS (and SYSV) compatibility

This program is intended as a utility to help software developers

ensure that their source file names are distinguishable on MS-DOS and

14-character SYSV platforms.  To perform this task, doschk reads a

list of filenames and produces a report of all the conflicts that

would arise if the files were transferred to a MS-DOS or SYSV

platform.

To use this program, you must feed it a list of filenames in this

format:

        dir

        dir/file1.ext

        dir/file2.exe

        dir/dir2

        dir/dir2/file3.ext

If the list does not include the directory-only lines (like dir/dir2)

then their names will not be checked for uniqueness, else they will

be.  Typical uses of this program are like these:

        find . -print | doschk

        tar tf file.tar | doschk

If this program produces no output, then all your files are MS-DOS

compatible.  Any output messages are designed to be self-explanatory

and indicate cases where the files will not transfer to MS-DOS without

problems.
