f25e87abc8 allow multiple '-f acronyms' arguments to be given, which makes this behave 
more consistently with ACRONYMSDB, which may also point to multiple files

be5e286e64 - Don't call basename $0 at many places. Use variable $PROGNAME 
- Better check when neither $ACRONYMDB is define nor files in
   /usr/share/misc/ are found
 - Replace cat | fgrep to using fgrep only
 - Replace sort | uniq to using sort -u

e5a0b604a9 * Change program logic to not nest needlessly 
* Search all acronyms databases, and don't force the user to
   know in which category to look (-t is gone)
 * If an acronym is not found in the database or by whatis(1),
   also check pkg_info(1). Per PR bin/30539 by Geert Hendrickx
   (geert.hendrickx@ua.ac.be)

24c2b45c15 Implement a -t option, to easily select an acronyms list from /usr/share/misc. 
One can do `wtf -t comp pci' and it will use /usr/share/misc/acronyms.comp
to search the acronym as usual.

7e9fe5fb1e Fix the part of pr8201 which is IMHO a bug: the error message now goes 
to stderr.

The existing error message ("I don't know what xxx means") is
unchanged, as it is stylisticly in keeping with the light-hearted
nature of the program, and is also more likely to be accurate than the
"no such acronym" error message proposed in 8201.
