(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.

2004-09-06	Several od changes for POSIX and FreeBSD compatibility.	Paul Eggert

2004-09-06	(od invocation): Several changes for POSIX	Paul Eggert
	and FreeBSD compatibility. Add support for XSI syntax (POSIX 1003.1-2004). Rename -s[N] to -S N. Remove documentation for -h. -i is now -t dI (not d2) and -l is now -t dL (not d4).

2004-08-24	Standardize on "tab stop" (the POSIX usage)	Paul Eggert
	rather than "tabstop". (unexpand invocation): Use "blank" rather than "space" when POSIX requires "blank". Define "blank". Initial blanks are converted even if there's just one. For -a, convert two or more blanks only if they occur just before a tab stop.
2004-08-24	POSIX-conformance fixes for "expand" and "unexpand".	Paul Eggert

2004-08-20	Regenerate.	Paul Eggert

	Also, fix a regression and some memory leaks.
2004-08-19	(chown invocation): Fix synopsis:	Paul Eggert
	group must always be preceded by separator. "chown : file" and "chown '' file" don't change the owner or group. Update the explanation of what happens to the set-user-ID or set-group-ID bits, e.g., they sometimes are not cleared if they denote mandatory locking. Change "find"-oriented examples to use chown -h.

2004-08-18	(printf invocation): Clarify how "printf" is	Paul Eggert

2004-08-10	(Common options): Clarify that "-" means	Paul Eggert
	stdin/stdout only when it is an operand, not when it is an option-argument. (shred invocation): "shred -- -" is equivalent to "shred -", not to "shred ./-". (tee invocation): "tee -" means to copy (again) to stdout.
