wiz c6d7976845 Sort options (no-argument ones first, then argument-taking ones). 2012-11-10 18:41:10 +00:00
christos 0002c266f0 Add an option to read with a different buffer size, and document the
buffer size we use. This allows us to cat -B 10000000 /proc/<pid>/maps
for example which cannot handle seeking.

enami fa2d3031e1 The el option is an extention. 2002-07-03 01:27:23 +00:00
mason ec4fb122bd Add -l option to cat(1), as discussed on tech-userlevel. This option
causes cat(1) to use fcntl(2) to set an exclusive advisory lock on stdout.
While being useful in its own right, this will shortly be used to
guarantee orderly writing to METALOG in the case of unprivileged builds
with NBUILDJOBS > 1.

garbled f124765044 More and more .Os cleanups. .Os is defined in the tmac.doc-common file,
so we shouldn't override it with versions in the manpages.  Many more to
come.

jtc 23e6aab105 Use "utility" instead of "command". Modern definitions of these terms
are distinct (See POSIX.2 glossary).

A utility is a executable, script or shell builtin; while a command
can be any of those things plus lists, pipelines, compound commands
(if, for, while) and shell function definitions.
