http://www.kernel.org/doc/man-pages/online/pages/man3/strcmp.3.html says: The strcmp() function compares the two strings s1 and s2. This is incorrect. s1 and s2 are pointers, not strings. Suggested wording: The strcmp() function compares the two strings pointed to by s1 and s2. I presume there are other errors like this. I can probably find the time to track them down and submit a git patch; would that be useful? Hmm, I just tried to clone the git repository, and it failed: $ git clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/man-pages.git Cloning into man-pages... fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly -- Keith Thompson <Keith.S.Thompson@xxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
