Another annoyance is that most tools do not accept --help. This is common with GNU tools, and I prefer it over -h, because some tools might use -h for a real thing. In case -h means "remove all files", then you're screwed...
That is a matter of preference. I always hated the -- options GNU utilities use since they were so much more to type. I will admit GNU/Linux systems get you used to typing "cmd --help" instead of "man cmd" which I think is a bad habit. I think most people got used to doing this since documentation is something that was usually completely overlooked on most GNU/Linux distributions... -- "Less is only more where more is no good." --Frank Lloyd Wright Shawn Walker, Software and Systems Analyst [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://binarycrusader.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
