Hi, No worries if this is disregarded or discarded. No need to respond back. I am grateful for what everyone has done regardless of action taken in regards to this email.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(computing)#Misconceptions Action Item: a.) Consider updating manpage documentation to confirm how posix paths work in regards to trailing slash vs. trailing slash and period. or b.) Correct / remove my mistake (misinformation) on wikipedia. And forgive what I had incorrectly written. Details: I have updated wikipedia to better explain how paths work -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Path_(computing)#Misconceptions. This is based directly on what I have seen dirname work. Very, very thankful for this utility. And posix standards in general. The manpages seem to be missing details on how the tool works. And even Windows seems to adhere to this standard. Although it is less obvious, due to its aggressive nature resolving paths (case insensitivity). Again, David MacKenzie and Jim Meyering have done some awesome work! As well as everyone involved in gnu! Thank you everyone! Hopefully helpful, TamusJRoyce (James Galyen)
