I know how to use it, I just can't find a reference that tells me I can use it like that. I've checked the man pages and info coreutils/printf invocation, but I can't find a reference to the `-v` option anywhere.

What say the gurus?

It is not the printf from coreutils, it is the bash builtin. So 'man bashbuiltins' gives you everything you need to know. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
