---------------------------------------------------------------------- (0005803) calestyo (reporter) - 2022-04-15 01:19 https://www.austingroupbugs.net/view.php?id=1544#c5803 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Reviewed and mostly good from my side, with the single exception: When you use "///dev/stdout", I'd recommend to explicitly mention that "//dev/stdout" is *not* the same. The standard is most likely also read by people that are not experts, just like I am, and who don't know or remember that two leading / in a pathname are actually special as per 3.271 Pathname. Given that many people think that *any* sequence of / folds in a pathname... I'd probably even give the '/./dev/stdout' example. What about: "... for example, -o /./dev/stdout or -o ///dev/stdout but not -o //dev/stdout (see 3.271 Pathname)." respectively "... for example, /./dev/stdout or ///dev/stdout but not //dev/stdout (see 3.271 Pathname)." Anyway... if you think it's good as it is, I wouldn't insist on any of this (not that my opinion would count much anyway ^^).
