sysutils/xe 0.11 MidnightBSD

xe is a tool for constructing command lines from file listings or arguments, which includes the best features of xargs(1) and apply(1).

Benefits over xargs:

• Sane defaults (behaves like xargs -d'\n' -I{} -n1 -r).
• No weird parsing, arguments are separated linewise or by NUL byte.
• Can also take arguments from command-line.
• No shell involved unless -s is used.
• {} replacing possible with multiple arguments.
