Hi Brian,
Thanks for your response. I'll use ports@ in future - noted.
I understand the fallback to print usage() in the event of passing more
than one param, however in my case usage() is being called regardless.
I have /usr/ports on my system but I'm not familiar with the build
process in OpenBSD ports yet to be able discern what's going on.
However, I have built from upstream and behaviour is as expected:
me@box:~/free$ ./free
total used free
Mem: 7.9G 7.3G
545M
Swap: 8.1G 0B
8.1G
Grateful if you could let me know if I'm doing anything wrong. Many
thanks.
Matthew
I think free is a command available on Linux systems. Maybe you have an
alias for free doing free -flag, this wouldn't be triggered when using
./free from sources.
Try "type free" to see if it's an alias or the real binary path.
Solène - thank you. That was precisely the problem. I'm a fool for not
checking that - apologies.
