Hi Jim, the first part of Benno's patch is a trivial documentation fix: http://debbugs.gnu.org/12212 [PATCH 1/2] dd: the word BLOCKS no longer occurs in the help text It fixes the man-page of dd. I replied that the same is necessary in coreutils.texi, but there's no commitable patch yet. Now I see that you already CC'ed Benno ... Have a nice day, Berny
