Bug#403125: cpp infile outfile



Tags: upstream
Package: cpp-4.1-doc
Version: 4.1.1.nf2-1
Severity: minor
File: /usr/share/man/man1/cpp-4.1.1.gz

1. no bug address on man page. Compare coreutils.
2. no bug address in Info page
3. SYNOPSIS
       cpp [-Dmacro[=defn]...] [-Umacro]
           [-Idir...] [-iquotedir...]
           [-Wwarn...]
           [-M|-MM] [-MG] [-MF filename]
           [-MP] [-MQ target...]
           [-MT target...]
           [-P] [-fno-working-directory]
           [-x language] [-std=standard]
           infile outfile
Shouldn't that be
           [infile [[outfile]]

4.     Either infile or outfile may be -, which as infile means to
       read from standard input and as outfile means to write to
       standard output. Also, if either file is omitted, it means the
       same as if - had been specified for that file.

How can one omit the infile, but not the outfile? Should reword.
