    Makefile: Warn users of pkgx.dev about their poor life choices
    
    Their current installation script prevents installing man pages
    (lol) by instead installing a .noop file (double lol). This allows
    detecting it and warning the user.
    
    I have requested that they not include moreutils.

    vidir: Zero pad line numbers
    
    To work better when used with a small tab size such as 2, with which
    filenames after 9 didn't line up with ones before.
    
    This is particularly useful when doing block select operations on
    filenames, eg adding text to the beginning of each.
    
    Thanks, Johan Grande

    Use pclose() instead of fclose()
    
    The return value from popen() is a normal standard I/O stream in all
    respects save that it must be closed with pclose() rather than
    fclose(3).
    
    Solves the following warning when compiled with -Wmismatched-dealloc:
    
    errno.c: In function ‘search_all’:
    errno.c:126:5: warning: ‘fclose’ called on pointer returned from a
                             mismatched allocation function
                             [-Wmismatched-dealloc]
      126 |     fclose(f);
          |     ^~~~~~~~~
    errno.c:113:9: note: returned from ‘popen’
      113 |     f = popen("locale -a", "r");
