How does ls --hangman bringing up a hangman program affect the normal use of the program more then a large manifesto affect the normal use of the manual?1) It should be compilable with any compiler used for compilation of ls.
Just like a large manifesto in a document should be in the same character set and language as the document.
2) (not sure for ls but usual problem). It should not contain bugs, which can be exploited.
Just like said manifesto should not contain bugs (e.g, factual inaccuracies, grammar problems, etc.). I don't think there are any security worries with adding a --hangman option to ls.
