Severity: minor

Operation contradicts description of manpage.

man dash:
   Argument List Processing
     All of the single letter options that have a corresponding name can be
     used as an argument to the -o option.  The set -o name is provided next
     to the single letter option in the description below.  Specifying a dash
     ``-'' turns the option on, while using a plus ``+'' disables the option.
     The following options can be set from the command line or with the set
     builtin (described later).
snip
           -V vi            Enable the built-in vi(1) command line editor
                            (disables -E if it has been set).

           -E emacs         Enable the built-in emacs(1) command line editor
                            (disables -V if it has been set).

$ set -V
$ ^[
$ set -o vi
$ ^[
There does not seem to be a change.

     fc [-e editor] [first [last]]

     fc -l [-nr] [first [last]]

     fc -s [old=new] [first]

$ type fc

                          value of their characters.

            s1 > s2       True if string s1 comes after s2 based on the ASCII
                          value of their characters.

$ test a < b
dash: cannot open b: No such file
$ test a > b
$ ls
b
