When I wanted the options for umask, I typed 'man umask' and got the man page for it as a C header diretive? (I'm not a C programmer, but it seemed to be for C header files and came from section 2.)
This is darn confusing for a new user. I have been around long enough (slink) that I quickly realized it must be a Bash builtin and found that man page, but how would a beginner know that? Surely a symbolic link could be set up for umask as well as the others (bg, eval, fg, read, etc.)? Should I file this as a bug against Sid? I know there's no chance it will make it into Wheezy. -- Carl Fink nitpick...@nitpicking.com Read my blog at blog.nitpicking.com. Reviews! Observations!
