funny locales.

(Operating on sorted files): Add shuf.
(sort invocation, shred invocation): New option --random-source.
(sort invocation): Fix typo: -R -> -r.

a+s versus +s, and likewise for g+s.
(Numeric Modes): Bring back example of 0055 == 55. 4755 no
longer clears setgid bit on directories.
(Directory Setuid and Setgid): Numeric modes now affect setuid
and setgid on directories only if they set these bits. This
is so that leading 0 has no effect on numeric modes.
|
|
Add cross-references to Directory Setuid and Setgid.
(install-invocation): The default mode is no longer equivalent to 755.

than having the code test for all of the other types first.
Hoist the set-uid/gid-testing code "up" into this new block.
Classify any other type of file (e.g., S_TYPEISSHM, etc.) as
C_ORPHAN, not as C_FILE.
* doc/coreutils.texi (What information is listed): Mention that missing
pieces of information are marked with "?". From Paul Eggert.

GNU extension, and that other systems behave differently here.

about distinguishing file mode bits from permissions bits,
and about execute versus search permission. The FreeBSD command
is chflags, not chrflags.
|
|
restricts only unprivileged users.
|
|
flag is another name for the sticky bit.

of directories alone unless you specify them explicitly.
install and mkdir now implement X correctly.
install now creates parent directories with mode 755, without
changing their owner or group.
|

setuid and setgid bits on directories.
(Changing Special Mode Bits): Mention that a implies both u and g
for s. Cross reference to new node.
(Numeric Modes): Don't claim that 0055 is the same as 55; this isn't
true any more. Mention new node.
4755 is now like u=rwxs,go=rx,g-s, not like u=rwxs,go=rx.
(Directory Setuid and Setgid): New node.

Use "set-user-ID" and "set-group-ID" a bit more consistently.
Use "appropriate privileges" rather than "super-user" a bit
more consistently.
(install invocation): Parent directories are now 755 without uid
or gid changing. The default mode is now 0755, not 755.
(mkdir invocation): Rewrite the top-level usage description, since
I couldn't easily follow the old one. It's now 3 lines not 8.
For -m, describe file permission bits versus other bits, and note
that mkdir is atomic if you don't mention special bits.
(chmod invocation): Mention what chmod does to setgid and setuid bits.

`zeros' and `zeroes' are correct).

information if seq's operands are all fixed point decimal numbers.
You no longer need the `-f%.f' in `seq -f%.f 1048575 1024 1050623',
for example, since the default format now has the same effect.
seq now lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, and %G formats.
seq now uses long double internally rather than double.

internally rather than double. It now defaults to a minimal fixed
point format if possible. It lets you use %a, %A, %E, %F, %G.
Don't assume printf doesn't work for numbers that fit in 64 but
not 32 bits; typically they work these days. Improve discussion
of large integers and update the rounding-error numbers.

10 ports. Add commented-out entries for other types that POSIX
says are possible, or that I observed in FreeBSD documentation.
