Erik,
Derek Price here, one of the developers of CVS.
Just curious, I was wondering if there was some sort of standard defined
that led you to use the <> characters to bracket literal strings in the
usage spec for chkconfig or if you could point us to some examples of
similar usages.
We were trying to reach a decision on the format to use in `cvs watch'
section of the CVS manual. I initially used "(on|off)", and another
developer suggested {} was the standard. Then I found your <>. Just
wondering if you knew if there _was_ an existing standard. I've failed
to turn up one in my google searches so far and I've yet to find another
example in my man or info pages.
Derek
