Package: file Version: 5.00-1 Hi Daniel,
file(1): > -0, --print0 > Output a null character ‘\0’ after the end of the filename. > Nice to cut(1) the output. This does not affect the separator > which is still printed. $ file foo | hd 00000000 66 6f 6f 3a 20 65 6d 70 74 79 0a |foo: empty.| 0000000b $ file -0 foo | hd 00000000 66 6f 6f 00 20 65 6d 70 74 79 0a |foo. empty.| 0000000b (the separator is gone, contrary to what the man page says) $ file -0 -F? foo | hd 00000000 66 6f 6f 00 20 65 6d 70 74 79 0a |foo. empty.| 0000000b (separator is not printed at all when -0, in spite of being explicitly requested) Cheers, -- Raphael Geissert - Debian Maintainer www.debian.org - get.debian.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
