https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D210377 Bug ID: 210377 Summary: usr.bin/comm update manpage Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Documentation Assignee: freebsd-doc@FreeBSD.org Reporter: tcberner@gmail.com Created attachment 171553 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D171553&action= =3Dedit Be more precise in the manpage. The manpage of /usr/bin/comm says at the moment, that file1 and file2 "shou= ld be sorted". This gives the impression that it will work as expected if the files are not sorted, but maybe with a slight penalty on performance. It is however the case, that unsorted files do not work as expected: Example: % cat file1 line1 line3 line2 % cat file2 line1 line2 line3 % comm -12 file1 file2 line1 line3 The attached patch changes the language to "have to be sorted". --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
