Intentional - reread 'who --help': If ARG1 ARG2 given, -m presumed: `am i' or `mom likes' are usual. It matches historical behavior, where it is the value of argc, and not the contents of argv, that trigger the behavior. And you are not the first person to ask this question. > This e-mail contains PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION As a note of netiquette, note that it is generally frowned upon to send email to a publicly archived list with a disclaimer that cannot be enforced and which occupies more storage than the original message. Some people refuse to reply to such messages on principle, so you are effectively reducing the chance for a meaningful reply. There are plenty of free email servers available without having to resort to your employer's disclaimer. - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
