Existing examples seem to just use the printf format specifier, e.g. "%u", without the explicit type, e.g. "u32", which seems cleanest to me. I would suggest changing this to just "Format: %u" to better fit existing convention. > +Users: auditd, libaudit, audit-testsuite, login I didn't get an opportunity to reply to the previous thread before you sent this, but I really don't like listing specific userspace tools/libraries here. I recognize that you like the specificity, but I do not, and I fear that it will become invalid over time either due to deprecation of old packages or omission of new ones; the fact that we are just now adding an entry from 2005 shows how this area of Documentation can often be neglected. Please replace this with something like "audit and login applications" or something similar. -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com
