What I was trying to say is that the function returns the name F of a file, such that the commands 'cat F' and '(cd DIR; cat BASE)' output the same file. I see now that it isn't worded very well, though. Perhaps the following would be better? The resulting file name F is such that the commands "ls F" and "(cd DIR; ls BASE)" refer to the same file, where BASE is ABASE with any file system prefixes and leading separators removed. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
