The following reply was made to PR bin/143271; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Alexander Best <arundel@freebsd.org> To: bug-followup@freebsd.org Cc: Jan Schaumann <jschauma@netmeister.org> Subject: Re: bin/143271: [patch] whatis(1) should print error message to stderr Date: Sun, 1 Aug 2010 21:33:48 +0000 i agree with the stdout/sterr issue. however i don't see why whatis'es return values should be altered. it's common practice to return 0 on success. so returning 0 if whatis recognizes the keyword is just fine. cheers. alex -- a13x
