2004-10-11 | (Special built-in utilities): New node. | Paul Eggert | |
(printf invocation): builtin -> built-in, for consistency with POSIX terminology. (test invocation, pwd invocation): Use specific rather than generic language to warn about built-in commands. (chroot invocation, env invocation, nice invocation, nohup invocation): Warn that command must not be a special built-in. (env invocation): Warn about environment variables with unusual spellings, or duplicates. | |||

2004-09-19 | dd invocation fixes | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-19 | (dd invocation): Distinguish between options | Paul Eggert | |
(e.g., --help) and operands (e.g., if=file). Move miscellaneous stuff after the operand descriptions, for clarity. | |||

2004-09-09 | (test invocation): Document -r, -w, -x more carefully. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-09 | Revamp sort last-resort comparison description. | Paul Eggert | |

2004-09-09 | Document that test -h and -L don't dereference. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-09 | (test invocation): Mention that -h and -L don't dereference symlinks. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-09 | (test invocation): Use better synopses. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-09 | Mention option-reordering, particularly with tr. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-09 | (Common options): Some programs don't reorder | Paul Eggert | |
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. | |||
2004-09-08 | sort -u versus sort | uniq. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-08 | (sort invocation): Add remarks about sort -u versus sort | uniq. | Paul Eggert | |
Prompted by a question from Andrew Noymer. | |||
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). | |||
2004-09-06 | Improve quoting doc. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-06 | (String tests): Improve quality of warning about | Paul Eggert | |
quoting strings for the shell. | |||
2004-09-03 | dd conversion option cleanup. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-09-03 | (dd invocation): Specify which conversion options | Paul Eggert | |
are mutually exclusive. Give a bit more detail about ascii, ebcdic, and ibm conversions. | |||
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 | |
2004-08-19 | Add support for "chown : file" and the like. | 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 | * coreutils.texi (printf invocation): Clarify "printf". | Paul Eggert | |
2004-08-18 | (printf invocation): Clarify how "printf" is | Paul Eggert | |
supposed to work with extra arguments, missing arguments, etc. | |||
2004-08-11 | Regenerate. | 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. | |||
2004-08-10 | POSIX-conformance fixes for "-" used as an operand. | Paul Eggert | |
2004-08-09 | Regenerate. | Paul Eggert | |
