[PATCH] misc: fix chattr usage message for project ID

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Fix the "chattr -h" usage message to properly document that the
"-p" option takes a project argument, like "-v" takes a version.

Update the man page formatting to emphasize literal strings.
