For these simple utilities, it doesn't harm to make all global variables
static. In fact, this allows the compiler to perform better forms of
optimisation and analysis.
in the system. A simple heuristics is used to detect what is "enough"
memory: if number of physmem pages is greater than 32k (equalling 128 MB
on machines with 4 kB pages).
Typical immediate result of these changes is reduction in context switches
and the goal is to increase efficiency by using large buffers:
before: /usr/bin/time -hlp cat file1 > file2
...
163 voluntary context switches
11194 involuntary context switches
after: /usr/bin/time -hlp ./cat file1 > file2
...
417 voluntary context switches
272 involuntary context switches

Restore the code that avoided closing and reopening
stdin. This is also required by POSIX. As a bonus,
enable multiple stdin reads with the -benstv flags,
by resetting the EOF condition on stdin.
mark up a sample invocation, since it is not a command internal to the
described utility.
Do not use Ar (argument) to mark up something which is not an argument
to the utility or one of its internal commands.
This gets rid of a bogus cast of NULL in setbuf().
Lets us know the buffer malloc failed.
Reworks the manpage a bit to make it more mdoc(7) compliant, adds
examples.
