Description Shoan Motwani 2004-10-07 21:49:28 UTC
The esearch manual gives the following:

--verbose, -b
              Give a lot of additional information (slow!)

should actually be

--verbose, -v
              Give a lot of additional information (slow!)

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. man esearch
2. scroll down to the option section
3.

Hmm... strange. On my disk I already fixed it, and I thougt I included it in esearch-0.7.
Thanks for the report, will be fixed in esearch-0.7.1.

Fixed typo patch

verbose -b in the manpage has been changed to verbose -v, to accurately
represent the flag.

esearch-0.7-typos.patch

I just found this as well and created a patch...
Found two more typos when I audited the man pages.
Additionally I added the description of '--help' to esearch when
doing '--help'...
Comment 5 David Peter 2005-02-24 12:51:26 UTC

This bug is fixed in esearch 0.7.1 which is out now.
Comment 6 SpanKY gentoo-dev 2005-02-25 12:15:06 UTC

Patch for remaining typo

One of the patches above did not find its way into version 0.7.1
Somehow there is special character in this manpage.
So, I would suggest to add this patch to 0.7.1-r1 version.
Since 0.7.1 is out for quite some time I would also suggest to mark it stable.
Comment 8 David Peter 2005-04-17 04:49:13 UTC
Yes, good idea. Thanks.
Could someone please do this?
