> Previously, the information page about 8-bit octal values did not mention checking if the value was lower than 256. Due to this, when a command like "/bin/echo -e '\0610'" was used, the results were not accurate. This is now fixed to provide more accurate information about the behavior of octal values. (BZ#660033)
No mention of which programs this applies to -- echo, all, or other?

Thanks. I wasn't asking for my own benefit, but the docs should mention the scope.

Comment 4 Martin Prpič 2011-07-28 18:09:29 UTC
