From c4de64f8f6df99078d55d329bed24bbe3b963aba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Maciej W. Rozycki" Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2022 17:11:09 +0100 Subject: GDB/doc: Remove extraneous spaces from completion examples Completion results are usually different when the operation is applied to a word that is or is not followed by a space. In some cases they are equivalent, however a space would not be produced if completion was used earlier on in the word processed. However in the manual we have completion examples given using a space that actually prevents the example from working. E.g.: (gdb) info bre (nothing) and: (gdb) info bre Display all 200 possibilities? (y or n) as it now goes on to propose the entire symbol table, while: (gdb) info bre (gdb) info breakpoints does the right thing, but is not what is shown in the manual. In other cases an extraneous space is used that does not correspond to the actual completion pattern shown, which gives an impression of sloppiness. Remove extraneous spaces then from completion examples as appropriate. --- gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo | 12 ++++++------ 1 file changed, 6 insertions(+), 6 deletions(-) (limited to 'gdb/doc') diff --git a/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo b/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo index f7b02c2..ad5bc7d 100644 --- a/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo +++ b/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo @@ -1915,7 +1915,7 @@ enter it).
