>Description:
The ls(1) man page has a minor bug - but it's the *ls* man page
after all!:-) And I just quoted it on Usenet with the usual snide
remark about the quality of Linux man pages - the shame!:-) (At
least I didn't mention that it was the FBSD one...:-)
>How-To-Repeat:
man ls
>Fix:
(Alternatively add "other permissions", but since they're enumerated in
the next paragraph it seems a bit redundant/repetitive.)
