+Minimalitic `find` using breadth first crawling.
+
+The entire invocation syntax is:
+
+ bfind [--xdev] [--hardlinks] [--symlinks] DIRECTORY
+
+With --xdev crawling will not be restricted to
+one mount point.
+
+With --hardlinks bfind will be hardlink aware
+on directories.
+
+With --symlinks, bfind will visit directories
+symlinks points, and directories will never
+be revisited. Visited directories will be
+memorised by absolute path name.
+
+
+Short option alternatives:
+
+ -x --xdev
+ -h --hardlinks
+ -s --symlinks
+
+ Short options can be combined
+
+
+Each link will always start with DIRECTORY
+and always and with a /.
