 22.2 The zsh/attr Module
 ========================
 
 The zsh/attr module is used for manipulating extended attributes.  The
 -h option causes all commands to operate on symbolic links instead of
 their targets.  The builtins in this module are:
 
 zgetattr [ -h ] FILENAME ATTRIBUTE [ PARAMETER ]
      Get the extended attribute ATTRIBUTE from the specified FILENAME.
      If the optional argument PARAMETER is given, the attribute is set
      on that parameter instead of being printed to stdout.
 
 zsetattr [ -h ] FILENAME ATTRIBUTE VALUE
      Set the extended attribute ATTRIBUTE on the specified FILENAME to
      VALUE.
 
 zdelattr [ -h ] FILENAME ATTRIBUTE
      Remove the extended attribute ATTRIBUTE from the specified
      FILENAME.
 
 zlistattr [ -h ] FILENAME [ PARAMETER ]
      List the extended attributes currently set on the specified
      FILENAME.  If the optional argument PARAMETER is given, the list of
      attributes is set on that parameter instead of being printed to
      stdout.
 
 zgetattr and zlistattr allocate memory dynamically.  If the attribute or
 list of attributes grows between the allocation and the call to get
 them, they return 2.  On all other errors, 1 is returned.  This allows
 the calling function to check for this case and retry.
