your comment got through to webmaster - thanks for attending to it - ive a follow suggest "all its input" is improper grammar - that should be "all of its input" also, i would either quote or hyphenate "the end of file string"; because that phrase is not merely descriptive - it is a very precise technical term, taken as a whole - just IMHO, but i would rather see something like one of these: the end-of-file string the "end of file" string the End Of File string
Thanks or the review. I pushed this with your suggestions: https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/findutils.git/commit/?id=da65ab1e6 I also changed "end of file" to "end-of-file" in other places, and installed a syntax-check rule to ensure the hyphenated use in future. https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/findutils.git/commit/?id=7836aa1de Have a nice day, Berny
