They work fine for me. My impression was that the bug only occured with newlines, and looking at Andrea's patch seems to confirm this. I think that when Andreas mentioned byte vs character counts it was merely to clarify the issue (as earlier there was some confusion about that in this thread). > > [4.5.1] > > ... > > This package is the union of the following: > > textutils-2.1, fileutils-4.1.11, sh-utils-2.0.15. > > Hmmm, then, it's strange that "ls (fileutils) 4.1" works, > but "ls (coreutils) 4.5" doesn't. Why? I think it just means that the bug was introduced after fileutils-4.1. -miles -- `Life is a boundless sea of bitterness' _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
