3877 | I vaguely remember that "iff" means "if and only if". Could that be the case here? (If so, it should be reworded to avoid the confusing shortcut.) |
I was coming to mention that. For one who reported it, there are probably dozens who just thought it was "if". I recommend
Has an effect if 'dspm' is listed as part of the \fBversion\fR shell variable and only then.
instead. Do you want to change it to that, or should I?
Please don't. It's contrib and it's a well established convention. If you want to change it, please change it upstream.
Fair enough, but now I'm confused. Since you only bring that up now, does that mean that some doc differences from upstream are OK and others aren't? Or am I reading too much in the time you brought this up?
For files under src/contrib/, we have an upstream for them. We strive to keep the differences to a minimum or zero, which means we prefer, where possible, to have the differences submitted upstream first and brought in that way so that future imports don't generate merge conflicts. That's not always possible, or the process may be delayed in some cases, and then it's OK.
For tcsh, we get it from NetBSD, and they have been quite responsive in the past to bug fixes, etc. christos@NetBSD.org or dholland@NetBSD.org are good people to send a patch to and see what they say. Once it's in NetBSD, let me know and I'll start the update process.
