2019-07-30In addresses, consistently use "+" rather than ".+1".Ingo Schwarze
Both have the same meaning, but the former is explicitly defined in this manual page as "the next line" whereas the latter requires combining various pieces of information for understanding. Unification suggested and patch OK'ed by martijn@.
2019-07-29Remove several .Xrs to section 2 and 3 that help little.Ingo Schwarze
Instead, link to the explanation of octal permission masks in chmod(2) directly from the description of "umask", and to ksh(1) from SEE ALSO. Fixing an oddity pointed out by guenther@; OK jmc@ millert@.

2019-07-25tweak previous: a leading dash can only be given if an option letter follows;Ingo Schwarze
OK deraadt@
2019-07-24Years ago the optionality of leading - was removed. dash-less is aTheo de Raadt
fact on the ground in ps everywhere, even on linux, and it is not going to go away, and denying the existance is pointless. The SYNOPSIS cannot proscriptively document all the cases without a madness. I also feel there is very little need to explain the behaviour differences relative to the sparse POSIX standard for ps, everyone's ps has oodles of extensions.

implementation; it was oversimplified and arguably incorrect. 2. Explicitely compare the behaviour of empty command lists for g, empty command lists for G, and empty commands because these subtle differences are quite confusing. 3. Say more precisely what the v and V commands do, avoiding the fuzzy wording "similar". All these issues were first pointed out by martijn@. Feedback and OK martijn@; "diff reads ok" jmc@ on an earlier version.

the g and G commands, and polish the wording a bit explaining empty command lists. Closing a gap in the manual reported by <mazocomp at disroot dot org>. OK jmc@ martijn@
2019-07-12Minor polishing:Ingo Schwarze
* Delete a stray blank from the command line synopsis and add the missing .Ar markup to it. * Do not mention the terminating newline for the empty command since it isn't mentioned for any other command either. * Make the description of the empty command easier to understand. Joint work with martijn@ and jmc@.

2019-07-01sleep(1): simplify argument parsingcheloha
- No need for intermediate variables, just build the timespec directly - Use for-loops so we modify "cp" on a single line in each loop - Parse subseconds with one loop: less code, easier to read, etc. - Improve the subsecond parsing comment: make our intent really obvious ok schwarze@

2019-06-24Partial revert of rev. 1.151:Ingo Schwarze
Reference the First Edition (1989) of Bolsky/Korn which is about ksh88, the shell the OpenBSD ksh(1) descends from (via pdksh). The Second Edition (1995) of the book is about ksh93 which we don't provide. Pointed out by Andras Farkas on bugs@.

2019-06-23add "ps -o pledge" option, which prints a comma-seperated list of pledgesTheo de Raadt
active on each process. So go forth and "ps agux -o pledge" to find pledges which can be improved. (I hesitated adding this before because I am afraid of people enforcing extra-strict pledge in programs without testing all the use cases -- thereby breaking software).

you'll see one, or neither. 'u' - process installed unveils, but not yet locked with unveil(0,0) or pledge w/o "unveil" 'U' - process has installed unveils, and locked. ok rob

could have, so let's formally expand the buffer to what it needs to be.
2019-02-20When evaluating an arithmetical expression, for example inside $(()),Ingo Schwarze
never do substitution (neither parameter, nor command, nor arithmetic, nor tilde substitution) on the values of any variables encountered inside the expression, but do recursively perform arithmetical evaluation of subexpressions as required. This makes behaviour more consistent, without hindering any behaviour promised in the manual page. A quirk originally reported by Andy Chu <andychup at gmail dot com> was that in the past, when encountering an array index, the shell would not only do evaluation, but also substitution on the array index, even though substitution would not be done on the expression in general. tobias@ contributed to initial efforts of understanding the quirk. patch tested in a bulk build by naddy@ "please commit" deraadt@

2019-01-14Fix three more buglets:Ingo Schwarze
1. Another off-by-one: if a mail file name ends in an (escaped) percent sign, do not forget to check whether the next byte is the percent sign introducing the message (MAILPATH='filename\%%msg'). 2. If the message is empty, use the default message rather than printing a blank line (MAILPATH='filename%'). 3. If the file name is empty, don't bother with mballoc(): the subsequent stat(2) can never succeed. (MAILPATH='%msg'). Found while reviewing the previous commit by tedu@. OK tedu@.
