I have also added some (I hope correct) notes to > the begin of the hwclock man page. Hello Karel, Yes, what you wrote is correct. However, I think some of the wording could be misinterpreted, especially: "hwclock automatically compensates Hardware Clock to account for systematic drift before using it to set the System Clock by --hctosys." Someone may think the Hardware Clock itself was being compensated. I have made a commit to change the wording slightly, I will send you a pull request after I send this email. Thank you for fixing hwclock's man page formatting! It was on my todo list. Thank you for taking time to review and merge my work, and allowing me to contribute to util-linux. I have some util-linux workflow questions: * Do you want pull requests sent to you via github? * If yes, what, if anything, should be posted to the mailing list? Will
