Tools like "grep" really should not have sprouted a "-R" because it is contrary to the Unix tool philosophy. Gnu apparently wants to reimplement all tools inside all other tools. >Another annoyance is that most tools do not accept --help.

All our tools accept "man tool"; that's actually 3 letters less typing. Casper _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list opensolaris-discuss@opensolaris.org
