2002-11-06 | Add support for locale-specific size indications (e.g., | Jim Meyering | |
thousands-separators) and for explicit size suffixes on output. (Block size): Say that: This affects display format as well as block size. Fractional block counts are rounded up. ls file size blocksize defaults to 1. A block size spec preceded by ' generates thousands separators. A suffix without a preceding integer generates suffixes. (tail invocation): 32k -> 32 KiB. (What information is listed): ls -h is now equivalent to ls --block-size=human, and ls -H is now equivalent to ls --block-size=si. Displayed file size is now always affected by --block-size. | |||

2002-07-08 | New ls time style: long-iso, which generates YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM. | Jim Meyering | |
Any time style can be preceded by "posix-". The default time style is now posix-long-iso instead of posix-iso. | |||

2002-04-08 | Use new directives, @copying and @insertcopying, | Jim Meyering | |
thus now requiring texinfo-4.2 to create the .info file. | |||
2002-03-25 | (File characteristic tests): Document the | Jim Meyering | |
behavior of test -nt and -ot when one of the files does not exist, using the same behavior that is documented in ksh93. | |||
2002-03-06 | (cut invocation): Say that selected input is written in the same | Jim Meyering | |
order that it is read, and is written exactly once. | |||
2002-03-03 | Make cp -r equivalent to cp -R. Add a new cp option --copy-contents | Jim Meyering | |
for people who want to emulate the traditional (and rarely desirable) cp -r behavior. (cp invocation): Document this. Fix some related minor bugs: --no-dereference is no longer equivalent to -d, and --archive (-a) can override the other symlink options. Warn that cp -R is not portable on symbolic links unless you also specify -P. | |||
2002-03-02 | (cp invocation): Document that cp -r | Jim Meyering | |
preserves symlinks. Emphasize non-portability of cp -r. | |||

2002-02-16 | Add support for _POSIX2_VERSION, which lets you pick which POSIX | Jim Meyering | |

--suffix-length option, and refuses to generate more files than there are suffixes. Document this. | |||
2002-02-11 | Add more support for POSIX 1003.1-2001, which requires removal | Jim Meyering | |
for support of obsolete "-DIGITS" option syntax in nice, and which prohibits options with optional arguments like date's -I option. Document this. |
