Hi! I don't know if it is a bug but I don't manage to use options with the command 'time'. For example, -v option which is verbose option gives <tscreen> $ time -v ./myprog bash: -v: command not found
real 0m0.072s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.000s </tscreen> Another one is the wellknown --version option it gives <tscreen> $ time --version bash: --version: command not found real 0m0.055s user 0m0.000s sys 0m0.000s </tscreen> In the man/info pages we find: " Options to time must appear on the command line before COMMAND. Anything on the command line after COMMAND is passed as arguments to COMMAND." Well, ok... I have also written a bash script which is using 'time', but the result is the same! Any idea ? I need this command to evaluate time- and space-consumming of a program for my thesis. Thx.
