According to Samuel GRANJEAUD - IR/ICIM on 4/4/2008 6:40 AM:
| $ printf --version
| bash: printf: --: invalid option
| printf: usage: printf [-v var] format [arguments]
That's because that is bash's builtin printf, not coreutils'. Try
'/bin/printf --version' or '(exec printf --version)' to see the difference.
- --
Don't work too hard, make some time for fun as well!
