https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=277037 Bug ID: 277037 Summary: Typographical errors and grammar clarification in fclose(3) with a patch Product: Documentation Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: Manual Pages Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: jfa63@duck.com CC: doc@FreeBSD.org I noticed some typos and potentially ambiguous grammar in flcose(3) and have a patch to offer. diff -u a/fclose.3 b/fclose.3 --- a/fclose.3 2024-02-13 18:08:37.324978000 +0000 +++ b/fclose.3 2024-02-13 18:47:48.201409000 +0000 @@ -73,7 +73,7 @@ the file descriptor will be written to it. If the .Fa fdp -argument will be different then NULL the file descriptor will be returned in it, +argument is other than NULL, the file descriptor will be returned in it. If the stream does not have an associated file descriptor, .Fa fdp will be set to -1. The sentence in question ended in a comma rather than a period. Also 'than' is needed to indicate a comparison whereas 'then' indicates a continuation. I hope my change in grammar accurately coveys the correct meaning of the sentence. If not, I think it's because of the ambiguity. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
