Bug ID: 253969
Summary: The manual page for crontab is incorrect
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Only Me
Priority: ---
Component: Manual Pages

The "man 5 crontab" claims:
Names can also be used for the ``month'' and ``day of week'' fields. Use
the first three letters of the particular day or month (case does not
matter). Ranges or lists of names are not allowed.
However, ranges such as mon-fri or lists such as mon,tue do work. This can
easily be confirmed by adding lines such as
* * * * mon-fri echo "boo"
* * * Mar,Apr wed,thu echo "baa"
to crontab.
