From 08a99aeb3680dcd4c56b9feb8bc704c86397736c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Michal Nazarewicz Date: Tue, 23 Sep 2014 03:50:14 +0200 Subject: doc: fix use of "e.g." in stdbuf help message "E.g." stands for latin "exempli gratia" which is typically read as "for example". "E.g." does not stand for the word "example". As such, "for e.g." might be read as "for for example". Fix this usage by simply replacing "e.g." with "example". --- src/stdbuf.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'src') diff --git a/src/stdbuf.c b/src/stdbuf.c index d9cf02bf2..3fb5d3c42 100644 --- a/src/stdbuf.c +++ b/src/stdbuf.c @@ -115,7 +115,7 @@ size set to MODE bytes.\n\ "), stdout); fputs (_("\n\ NOTE: If COMMAND adjusts the buffering of its standard streams ('tee' does\n\ -for e.g.) then that will override corresponding settings changed by 'stdbuf'.\n\ +for example) then that will override corresponding changes by 'stdbuf'.\n\ Also some filters (like 'dd' and 'cat' etc.) don't use streams for I/O,\n\ and are thus unaffected by 'stdbuf' settings.\n\ "), stdout); -- cgit v1.2.3-54-g00ecf
