[PATCH 5/5] hwclock: sync one-liner descriptions

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

 



Make whatisdb/manpage and usage() one-line descriptions match.

Also update the description; hwclock has evolved into much more
than reading and setting the Hardware Clock. It also sets the
System Clock, warps the System Clock, sets the kernel time
configurations, and more.
