Subject: [Bug 52341] New: erroneous example in "rename" man page
Date: Fri, 4 Jan 2013 22:33:37 +0000 (UTC) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <bug-52341-11311@https.bugzilla.kernel.org/> (raw)
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=52341
Summary: erroneous example in "rename" man page
Product: Documentation
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Tree: Mainline
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P1
Component: man-pages
AssignedTo: documentation_man-pages-ztI5WcYan/vQLgFONoPN62D2FQJk+8+b@public.gmane.org
ReportedBy: slave2bob-/E1597aS9LQAvxtiuMwx3w@public.gmane.org
Regression: No
util-linux-2.22.2/misc-utils/rename.1 includes the text:
.SH EXAMPLES
Given the files
.IR foo1 ", ..., " foo9 ", " foo10 ", ..., " foo278 ,
the commands
.RS
.PP
.nf
rename foo foo0 foo?
rename foo foo0 foo??
.fi
.PP
.RE
will turn them into
.IR foo001 ", ..., " foo009 ", " foo010 ", ..., " foo278 .
This is not what those two commands will actually do. To produce
the described result, the first command, instead of:
rename foo foo0 foo?
should be:
rename foo foo00 foo?
