I just installed 4.4-RELEASE on a brand new disk. There seem to be two versions of killall. They differ at least in that one supports a '-s' diagnostic-only flag in which the signal isn't sent. The source in /usr/src/usr.bin/killall/killall.c builds the -s version, but doesn't match the man page in /usr/local/man/man1 (although it does match the doc in /usr/share/man/). Here's what I see: 1. /usr/local/bin/killall: no -s, doesn't match source 2. /usr/bin/killall: supports -s, matches source Is there some good reason for this? Maybe could be cleaned up someday? k. -- Ken Marx, kmarx@vicor-nb.com This group must improve our denominator as well as our numerator - with an emphasis on the denominator - and keep the faith regarding the industry's convergence. - http://cgi.bigshed.com/~kmarx/cgi-bin/speak.cgi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
