Herbert rejected both corrections. Your new proposal is better but
incomplete. Stéphane Chazelas tried to complete it. Moreover you have
not made a new proposal for the first correction.
As I am not dash user, I do not have a good knowledge of the matter. Can
you complete your answer / choice, please?
Thank you in advance for your help.
Original version:
1) [n1]<&n2 Duplicate standard input (or n1) from file descriptor n2.
2) [n1]>&n2 Duplicate standard output (or n1) to n2.
Version on Debian bug tracker and refused by H. Xu:
1) [n1]<&n2 Duplicate standard input (or n1) to file descriptor n2.
2) [n1]>&n2 Duplicate standard output (or n1) from n2.
Second version of the patch refused by H. Xu:
2) [n1]>&n2 Redirect standard output (or n1) to n2.
Stéphane Chazelas proposals:
1a) [n1]>&n2 Redirect standard output (or fd n1) to the same "open
file description" as on fd n2.
1b) [n1]>&n2 Redirect standard output (or fd n1) to
the same resource as open on fd n2.
1c) [n1]>&n2 Copy fd n2 as stdout (or fd n1)
Regards,
