Thanks for the attempt. However, the man pages are autogenerated from the --help output and from a tee.x template file, so you would have to rework your patch to hit the upstream source of the manpage. Also, the info pages tend to be more verbose about utilities; check that your patch wouldn't be more appropriate there. And please wrap lines in the patch, rather than letting the mailer wrap them and breaking the patch. I will leave it to Jim, the actual maintainer, whether this patch is worth applying even if these problems are addressed first. -- Eric Blake _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
