DESCRIPTION

    _N_c_h_e_c_k with no argument generates a pathname vs. i-number
    list of all files on a set of default file systems.  Names
    of directory files are followed by `/.'.  The -i option
    reduces the report to only those files whose i-numbers fol-
    low.  The -a option allows printing of the names `.' and
    `..', which are ordinarily suppressed.  suppressed.  The -s
    option reduces the report to special files and files with
    set-user-ID mode; it is intended to discover concealed vio-
    lations of security policy.
    A file system may be specified.
    The report is in no useful order, and probably should be
    sorted.
