Flags| |the.red@gmail.com) --- Comment #5 from Felix Johnson <felix.the.red@gmail.com> --- Created attachment 228338 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D228338&action= =3Dedit dd(1) patch After reading the source code, the sync option has three possible character= s to pad the input block with. First is the user-specified value of fillchar; se= cond is a space when block, noblock, ascii, ebcidic, or their synonyms are specified; and a NUL character otherwise. Document this behavior by updating dd(1). --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
