Update of bug #13041 (project findutils):
Assigned to: None => jay
Summary: -i and - shouldn't be exclusive => -I (-i) and -L
shouldn't be exclusive
_______________________________________________________
Follow-up Comment #3:
On *BSD,
yes x | head -10 | xargs -I Z -L 10 echo foo Z bar
produces:
foo x x x x x bar
foo x x x x x bar
However, GNU findutils currently assumes that {} (or in this case Z) expands
to just one argument.
Fixing this is probably going to mean a significant code change and I'm trying
to concentrate on producing a stable release. I will make the release and
then work on this bug.
