2000-10-31Use @sc where appropriate. Document theJim Meyering

2000-10-19Update from master repository.Jim Meyering
2000-10-18* src/date.c (universal_time): Remove; it's just a temptation toJim Meyering
do the wrong thing. (main): The -u option now just sets TZ; it doesn't do anything else. (show_date): Do not do anything special if -u is set. This affects the behavior of the -I and -R options. * doc/sh-utils.texi: Document the above.
2000-10-18(Examples of date): Fix a typo.Jim Meyering
2000-10-12(Time directives) [%S]: Range is 0..60, not 0..61.Jim Meyering
2000-09-16(Changing Special Permissions): Remove this statement:Jim Meyering
`a' in the USERS part of a symbolic mode does not cause the special permissions to be affected... It doesn't reflect what the code does and isn't required by POSIX. Reported by aldomel@ix.netcom.com via Mike Stone.
2000-09-09(Setting the time): Correct the capitalization ofJim Meyering
`HHMM' in the info-rendering of the texinfo documentation.
2000-09-07Update from master repository.Jim Meyering
2000-09-07(cut invocation): Note that when using -f, lines with no delimiters areJim Meyering
also printed.
2000-08-11Portable shell scripts should specify global options before key fields.Jim Meyering
Move global LC_CTYPE remark to each sort option that depends on LC_CTYPE. sort -g depends on LC_NUMERIC. Add @vindex where it's missing. "radix character" -> "decimal-point character", to match Standard C terminology, which is easier for most people to follow. "comm" does not consider trailing newlines to be significant.
2000-08-11Recommend against the System V syntaxJim Meyering
for tr ranges, and don't use it in examples. Use POSIX classes rather than ranges, for portability.
2000-08-11(wc invocation): Update accordingly.Jim Meyering
