How were you expecting it to behave? I tried it with stock Fileutils 4.0 (built against 2.03) and the symlink-enabled version I uploaded yesterday and I more than one file listed, when doing an 'ls -agl' against my copy of djgpp/src/libc/. > Plus a bug in the docs. They say "The '-g' option is accepted but > ignored, for compatiblity with Unix." in the ls node. I couldn't find '-g' in the Fileutils docs, but Unix98 says this: "-g The same as -l, except that the owner is not written." Presumably the bug is that it does take noticed of '-g'. If so, I will submit a patch to Jim Meyering. Thanks, bye, Rich =] -- Richard Dawe http://www.phekda.freeserve.co.uk/richdawe/
