The info on 'ar' does not explain that if you specify the 'V' option (to show the version), it apparently ignores all other options and commands and merely outputs the version. An additional sentence needs to be included in the info file to indicate this, so that programmers who like to see version information along with the operation of 'ar' to create or modify their libraries are not confused when it does not happen and do not waste time or lose productivity in trying to figure out the solution.
