Can you give an example? AFAIU Daniel's patch still leaves the possibility to use the '-' syntax, doesn't it? (The program 'cat' is of the kind which always reads from stdin if no file name is given, or if '-' is given instead of a file name. So, 'cat' allows Andy to start it and then type something in for cat to process in either case, while checkpatch supports this only with '-' as argument. OTOH it's easier to get checkpatch to print a usage note than it is with cat. There you have to type no less than 'cat --help', or at least with GNU cat.) -- Stefan Richter -=====-==--- ---= -===- http://arcgraph.de/sr/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
