I contest this! "Useless Use" is about overlooking an idiom that is
both concise and elegant--not about knowing every option of every
utility. I would claim that using a standard tool like grep to
filter the output of lsof is, in most cases, more flexible, easier
to understand and remember, and more unixish than -i.
Sorry for the diversion. :-)
