Yes. If someone were to prepare a complete patch, (i.e., one that I can simply "git pull ..." or apply with "git am", updating NEWS, coreutils.texi, and ls.c's usage (to adjust ls' --help)) that would make a fine point for further discussion. Code speaks more loudly than words. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
