Bug ID: 241552
Summary: awk.1 man page incorrect about how to find awk's
version
Product: Documentation
Version: Latest
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: Manual Pages
Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
Reporter: deepbluemist...@gmail.com
CC: d...@freebsd.org
The man page for awk(1) says you can find the version with awk -V
Instead, it seems you find the version with awk --version and awk -V does not
work.
I don't have gawk or any other awk installed from ports or packages, so I know
this is a bug.
$ awk -V
awk: unknown option -V ignored
awk: no program given
$ awk --version
awk version 20121220 (FreeBSD)
$ uname -a
FreeBSD nyann.tanasinn.mochi 12.0-RELEASE-p10 FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE-p10 GENERIC
amd64
$ freebsd-version -kru
12.0-RELEASE-p10
12.0-RELEASE-p10
12.0-RELEASE-p11
