The CVS documentation mentions the old usage; look for "older systems". "tail --help" (and therefore the man page) does not mention this, because it is supposed to be brief. A discussion about obsolete usage would have to be longwinded to be accurate and would probably cause more harm and confusion than it'd cure. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list Bug-coreutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
