Summary |
0001514: More "positional parameter" problems |
|
Description |
Bug 0001491 identified a problem with XCU 2.5.1 Positional Parameters. Searching the standard for other uses of "positional parameter" turned up three more problems:
1. The definition of positional parameter in XBD 3.283 needs to change in line with the change to XCU 2.5.1.
2. There is some text in the shell introduction in XCU that refers to "the positional parameter numbered 0".
3. The m4 rationale uses "positional parameter" when, for consistency with the normative text that it refers to, it should say "argument".
