Package: coreutils
Version: 6.10-6
Severity: wishlist
Hello,
the parameter "%s" currently is descriptioned as followed in the manpage:
%s seconds since 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC
In other words: it shows the unix-timestamp.
I am thinking, the man-page should mention this explicit for %s.
If somebody wants to know how to show the unix-timestamp with date he
probably will grep the manpage for "timestamp" or so. So it would be good when
this word appears somewhere there.
greetings,
Michael
