[patch] vis(3): NUL terminate - NUL-terminate

2010-04-23 Thread Joachim Schipper
I noticed that vis(3) talks about NUL terminated strings, whereas almost other sources (including e.g. strlcat(3), strtok(3), strpbrk(3)) talk about NUL-terminated strings (i.e. with a hyphen.) The following patch fixes this. Joachim Index: vis.3

The C standard says nothing at all about nul or NUL. '\0' is called the null character. [Basically, the C standard is written in English and uses English words to describe things.] A2.5.2 of my copy of KR 2nd ed mentions the character NUL. The rest of the book, I guess, has to be

Nobody spoken up for zero-terminated yet? I'd say, rightly or wrongly, null-terminated (meaning the null character) is much more common than NUL-terminated. Also I think the bikeshed should be a nice blue ;-). On Fri, Apr 23, 2010 at 03:25:25PM -0400, Paul Janzen wrote: The C standard says
