restore djgpp, eventually merge TODO lists add unit tests for lib/*.c rewrite du.c not to use explicit recursion strip: add an option to specify the program used to strip binaries. suggestion from Karl Berry doc/coreutils.texi: Address this comment: FIXME: mv's behavior in this case is system-dependent Better still: fix the code so it's *not* system-dependent. implement --target-directory=DIR for install (per texinfo documentation) ls: add --format=FORMAT option that controls how each line is printed. cp --no-preserve=X should not attempt to preserve attribute X reported by Andreas Schwab printf: support %b -- consider adapting builtins/printf.def from bash copy.c: Address the FIXME-maybe comment in copy_internal. And once that's done, add an exclusion so that `cp --link' no longer incurs the overhead of saving src. dev/ino and dest. filename in the hash table. Apply suggestion from Paul Jarc to use something along the lines of http://cr.yp.to/daemontools/setuidgid.html to avoid kludges (as in tests/rm/fail-2eperm) when running tests as root. See if we can be consistent about where --verbose sends its output: These all send --verbose output to stdout: head, tail, rm, cp, mv, ln, chmod, chown, chgrp, install, ln These send it to stderr: shred mkdir split readlink is different coreutils.texi: Add an entry for sort's --stable option. Write an autoconf test to work around build failure in HPUX's 64-bit mode. See notes in README -- and remove them once there's a work-around. after 5.0, change doc strings (like df, ls, etc) not to use `,' as thousands separator in e.g. 1,000,000. Instead, do this: SIZE may be (or may be an integer optionally followed by) one of following: kB 1000, K 1024, MB 1000*1000, M 1024*1024 and so on for G, T, P, E, Z, Y.
