Subject: HEADS UP: default mount(8) output format changed
Date: Wed, 23 Aug 2000 12:12:39 +0200

Hi folks,

Again, this is hardly worth a HEADS UP.  The default output format for
mount(8) has changed; sync and async read and writes statistics aren't
printed unless the -v option is used.  This does not apply to the output
produced by the -p option, which has never printed these statistics.

I've checked that this doesn't break any rc or periodic scripts, but if
you use the output of mount(8) (without -p) to feed some specialized
parser, make sure you add the -v option to its invocation.

Thanks,
Sheldon.
