-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 POSIX does not specify what should happen with:
$ /bin/printf %hhu/ 254 255 256 However, since coreutils accepts hh as an extension, should it issue a warning if the string being printed does not fit in an unsigned char? Or should it silently wrap around, and print 0 instead of 256? Or are we okay with keeping status quo that the size specifiers must be valid according to printf(3) rules, but are otherwise ignored? - -- Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
