Unfortunately, you've stumbled across one of the weakness of open source. Many of the coreutils come from varied backgrounds, with varying levels of documentation, and there is no cohesive design document (besides reading the code itself). Contributions to improve the documentation and code comments are greatly appreciated. -- Eric Blake _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
