Do we normally put printf format specifiers in user-facing man pages, outside of sound(4)? It seems a bit strange to me

53

if we go with this format I'd probably use where %d represents. pcmN, where N is doesn't require any extra knowledge but pcm%d, where the number requires that the user know %d represents a number.

christos marked 2 inline comments as done.

Revert %d notation, but use X instead of N to match sndctl.8's notation (the
commit message has also been adapted accordingly).

LGTM with one small nit. X seems more natural to me than N.
