+ * coreutils.texi (Common options): Some programs don't reorder
+ options.
+ (tr invocation, echo invocation, printf invocation, test invocation,
+ expr invocation, basename invocation, chroot invocation,
+ nice invocation, nohup invocation, seq invocation):
+ This program doesn't reorder options.
+ (tr invocation): Mention --help, --version, --.
+ (echo invocation): Mention that -- isn't special.
+ (test invocation): Mention that the expression is optional,
+ and that test ! EXPR is like ! test EXPR.
+ (expr invocation): Mention --help, --version.
+
* coreutils.texi (sort invocation): Add remarks about sort -u
versus sort | uniq. Prompted by a question from Andrew Noymer.
