Bump date for new -x.


# 1.13 13-Aug-2006 dyoung

Add a flag to wdogctl(8), -x, that activates a user-mode timer that
is NOT disarmed when wdogctl closes the watchdog device. The -x
mode protects against the case where the kernel kills wdogctl,
sshd, and other essential userland programs (due to memory exhaustion,
for example), lobotomizing a mission-critical NetBSD system and
necessitating an operator visit to reboot it.

"-offset indent" is fine for option lists -- re-add it,
backing out previous. jmmv does not disagree.


# 1.11 13-Jan-2005 jmmv

Remove extra indentation from the options list.


# 1.10 11-Jan-2005 wiz

Sort options. Fix a typo. Bump date for -e/-t.


# 1.9 09-Jan-2005 smb

Add a software watchdog timer facility. Because this slightly
changes the "tickle" model of wdogctl(8), it was modified as well;
while I was in there, I cleaned up the argument parsing.

The code was reviewed by simonb@.

New sentence, new line. From Robert Elz.

Format the path to a file with .Pa.


# 1.5 29-Jul-2002 thorpej

Note that not all watchdog timers can be disarmed once armed, and that
when such a case is encountered, an error message will be displayed and
the timer will remain armed if an attempt to disarm it is made.
