I could have been clearer for this last one, I mean that the command
line error text for `du` could mention that +FORMAT is supported:
Comparing du and ls output with a bad timestyle:
```
$ du --time --time-style=xyz blob
du: invalid argument ‘xyz’ for ‘time style’
Valid arguments are:
- ‘full-iso’
- ‘long-iso’
- ‘iso’
it would be nice to add `- +FORMAT (e.g., +%H:%M) for a 'date'-style format`
here
Try 'du --help' for more information.
$ ls -l --time-style=xyz blob
ls: invalid argument ‘xyz’ for ‘time style’
Valid arguments are:
- [posix-]full-iso
- [posix-]long-iso
- [posix-]iso
- [posix-]locale
- +FORMAT (e.g., +%H:%M) for a 'date'-style format
Try 'ls --help' for more information.
```
Oh right.
I'll refactor the code that prints the ls and du errors in this case.
cheers,
