There's still a variable name starting with "not_". Use "match", as I suggested. >> - use indentation that's consistent with surrounding code > > Followed. Indentation is still irregular (spaces vs TABs). Also, please don't add trailing blanks.

If possible you do the git. Install git, run the "git clone..." command above, and follow the instructions in HACKING. pinky is a program that few people use, and the behavior you're changing isn't even really a bug. If you can submit a perfect patch that I can apply with next to no effort, then the small improvement is worthwhile. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
