That comment I am sure referred to the fact that no suggestions were proposed to improve the upstream documentation. Since there were no suggestions proposed the bug was closed. The results of the command remain the same because the command is behaving correctly. This has since been documented in the coreutils FAQ: http://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/faq/#The-_0027od-_002dx_0027-command-prints-bytes-in-the-wrong-order_002e Hope this helps, Bob -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
