What I think would be best is something like: $ ./getfacl.exe -h Usage: getfacl.exe [-adn] FILE... Display file and directory access control lists (ACLs). -a, --all display the filename, the owner, the group, and the ACL of the file -d, --dir display the filename, the owner, the group, and the default ACL of the directory, if it exists -e, --examples output examples of usage and exit -h, --help output usage information and exit -n, --noname display user and group IDs instead of names -v, --version output version information and exit Note: ACLs for multiple files are separated by a blank line Report bugs to . $ with the --examples option outputting the usage information plus the additional information that currently outputs by default. I thought I would ask on the list since I think this would be a good change for getfacl, setfacl, and strace as least. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
