>Number: 2880 >Category: docs >Synopsis: sh man page talks about "...by the time 4.4 is released" >Confidential: no >Severity: non-critical >Priority: low >Responsible: freebsd-bugs >State: open >Class: doc-bug >Submitter-Id: current-users >Arrival-Date: Tue Mar 4 18:40:01 PST 1997 >Last-Modified: >Originator: Bill Fenner >Organization: Xerox >Release: FreeBSD 2.2-BETA_A i386 >Environment: >Description: The sh(1) man page has many references to 4.4: ncorporated into this shell. We expect POSIX conformance by the time 4.4 BSD is released. -a allexport Export all variables assigned to. (UNIMPLEMENTED for 4.4alpha) -C noclobber Don't overwrite existing files with ``>''. (UNIMPLEMENTED for 4.4alpha) -u nounset Write a message to standard error when attempting to expand a variable that is not set, and if the shell is not interactive, exit immediately. (UNIMPLEMENTED for 4.4alpha) -b notify Enable asynchronous notification of background job completion. (UNIMPLEMENTED for 4.4alpha) Enclosing the full parameter expansion string in double-quotes does not cause the following four varieties of pattern characters to be quoted, whereas quoting characters within the braces has this effect. (UNIMPLEMENTED IN 4.4alpha) >How-To-Repeat: man sh >Fix: Remove the phrase about POSIX conformance being planned by the time 4.4BSD is released; replace it with one asserting POSIX conformance if we believe that to be true. Remove all references to 4.4 alpha; change them to ".Os FreeBSD x.x" if they are true or remove the whole "UNIMPLEMENTED IN" phrase if they are not. >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
