Description Gary W. Swearingen 2005-08-18 00:50:18 UTC
-- The first "alias" "Yes" should be "No**".

-- "builtin echo command" is not consistent with the  "xxx builtin
command" (or just "xxx builtin") usage of csh(1) and sh(1) manpages.

-- The "pathname" macro (Pa) is twice used where an "interactive
command" macro (Ic) should be used (esp. because they are in a group
of three interactive commands).

-- The "Name" section has "builtin" twice, and no "built-in" for
   the benefit of literate "apropos" users.

-- These builtins are omitted from the Name section and the list:
(   Command       External    csh(1)    sh(1) )

    !             No          No        Yes
    %             No          Yes       No
    .             No          No        Yes
    :             No          Yes       Yes
    @             No          Yes       Yes
    {             No          No        Yes
    }             No          No        Yes
    local         No          No        Yes
    return        No          No        Yes

(They also don't have manpage hard links,
but they don't need them, IMO.)

-- The list is missing the Command "command" from its line.
