** New features
+ stty now provides support for Linux's iutf8 input mode.
+
+ 'df', 'du', and 'ls' now take the default block size from the
+ BLOCKSIZE environment variable if the BLOCK_SIZE, DF_BLOCK_SIZE,
+ DU_BLOCK_SIZE, and LS_BLOCK_SIZE environment variables are not set.
+ Unlike the other variables, though, BLOCKSIZE does not affect
+ values like 'ls -l' sizes that are normally displayed as bytes.
+ This new behavior is for compatibility with BSD.
+
With stat, a specified format is no longer automatically newline terminated.
If you want a newline at the end of your output, append `\n' to the format
string.
