2002-07-02(usage): Use the PACKAGE_BUGREPORT e-mail address, rather than hard-coding it.Jim Meyering
2001-12-02Use new macros, HELP_OPTION_DESCRIPTION and VERSION_OPTION_DESCRIPTIONJim Meyering
instead of hard-coding --help and --version descriptions.
2001-11-23(usage): Note that ``Mandatory arguments to long options are mandatoryJim Meyering
for short options too.''
2001-11-23Split usage strings so that --help and --versionJim Meyering
descriptions are alone in their own string.
2001-11-22(main): Add a literal format string to suppressJim Meyering
a warning from gcc's -Wformat-security.
2001-10-12(main): Tell what's wrong with `mknod c zero 1 5' ratherJim Meyering
than saying just `Try `./mknod --help' for more information.'.
2001-05-24(main): Remove quotes around %s.Jim Meyering
The argument is already quoted via the quote function.
2001-05-13(main): Check for NODEV device only if NODEV is defined.Jim Meyering
2001-05-13(main): Check for overflow when converting out of uintmax_t.Jim Meyering
Do not assume that major_t and minor_t are no wider than int. Check for makedev failures. Convert device numbers via uintmax_t, not unsigned long, just in case. Coalesce duplicate code in the block and character device cases.
2000-09-30(main): Rename local `symbolic_mode' to `specified_mode'.Jim Meyering
2000-09-30(main): Don't set the umask to 0 and hand-applyJim Meyering
the previously-set umask unconditionally. Do that only when a MODE has been specified. Otherwise, call mknod with the full creation mask (0777 or 0666) and let the kernel apply the umask. The difference shows up only on file systems with ACL support when the containing directory has a default ACL. Patch by Andreas Gruenbacher. (main): Rename local `symbolic_mode' to `specified_mode'. Also, when MODE is specified, call chmod to ensure that the permission bits are set as specified even when the containing directory has a default ACL.
2000-08-08(main): Invoke xalloc_die instead of printing our own message.Jim Meyering
2000-07-30Convert "`%s'" in format strings to "%s", and wrap eachJim Meyering
