This version fixes some minor compatibility issues with my current AmiBerry setup, which is likely to apply to others also.

But I could use a different handle for comentry.

@blmara 
That can be a consideration but spaces in in dep names is mostly considered a bad idea.

One could improve showing 'dependencies' containing space chars like font names depscan shows only the end of font name linke 'Serif.font' when it should tell 'Dejavu Serif.font'.

This version is an improvement upon the previous in performance and in the reporting of config file issues.

This version is a significant improvement of the previous. 
Certain limitations of the configuration file have been removed and now there is ctrl-c breaking.

The previous versions of depscan were not so much wrong but of a different ideology. They were about hierarchy of type over the order of position. The current depscan is the order of position over the hierarchy of type for a much greater performance.

This version is much faster than the previous and the order has been corrected. Other improvements through the entire history include improving accuracy of the dependency name. The speed improvements are very noticeable when on slower systems such as a Pi4 or under "ROM1.3 and WB1.3".

Nice tool mate!! I use since ages Deepstrack ARexx, but this one is now too on my hd!! 
btw some argument to sort dependencies (by name or by "type") could be nice.
