--- Comment #5 from Torsten Zuehlsdorff <t...@freebsd.org> --- (In reply to Conrad Meyer from comment #4) > Jamie hits the nail on the head. And I guess we're already explicit > about this: I tend to disagree ;) When using "man alias" for example, we get the builtin manpage. This is true for every builtin i every tried the last years. "man echo" is the only manpage for an builtin. Also the statement is not too helpful. While i am able to figure out which shell i am using: many users are not. Also the builtin manpage itself is not very helpful. It redirects me to the next manpage of the shell itself (after g. So my workflow is: 1) man echo 2) man builtin 3) man bash And every manpage is getting more complex and harder to understand. Beside the fact, that its possible to use different echos (if i read the buildin manpage correct?). In conclusion: maybe its fine from a technical point of view. From a user point of view it is very confusing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
