Thanks. Fixed in svn now. Example: Options: -p Ask user whether to run each command -r Do not run command if input is empty -0 Input is separated by NUL characters -t Print the command on stderr before execution -e[STR] STR stops input processing (default _) -n N Pass no more than N args to COMMAND -s N Pass command line of no more than N bytes -x Exit if size is exceeded |
