2002-02-16Include posixver.h.Jim Meyering
(usage): Document only the intersection of the old and new behaviors, to encourage portability. (main): Revert to previous behavior, except report an error and exit if the obsolete syntax is used and if conforming to the new standard.
2002-02-11(head_lines): If we have read too much data, tryJim Meyering
to seek back to the position we would have gotten to had we been reading one byte at a time. POSIX currently doesn't require this, but it's easy to do and some software relies on it.
2002-02-02Add more support for POSIX 1003.1-2001, which requires removal forJim Meyering
support of obsolete "-N" option syntax in expand, head, fold, split, tail, unexpand, uniq, and which prohibits options with optional arguments in od and pr. (usage): Document it. (main): Check for obsolete options. (header_mode_option): New constant.

2001-11-11(usage): Split --help output into smaller pieces.Jim Meyering
Use fputs, not printf.

``Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatory for short options too.\n\''

(main): Likewise.
2000-05-20Arrange to call close_stdout upon exit. Don't close stdout explicitly.Jim Meyering
2000-05-12(string_to_integer): Restrict base to 10.Jim Meyering
