I actually looked a bit, and this isn't the reason. The reason is that it's not in GNU gzip, it's an external patch which is probably applied by most distributions (RedHat/Fedora and Debian included), but noone cares to patch the manpage. grep for rsync under /usr/share/doc/gzip of your favourite distro if you want. -- Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
