Bug#354287: xrdb -q never sets the shell's $? to non-zero?



Package: xbase-clients
Version: 6.8.2.dfsg.1-11
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/X11R6/man/man1/xrdb.1x.gz

on the man page
       -cpp filename
mentions an argument, however
       -query  This  option  indicates that the current contents of the speci‐
               fied properties should be printed  onto  the  standard  output.
Should probably start like
       -query [properties...]
               This  option  indicates that the current contents of the speci‐

also mention one can leave off the properties...
and mention what happens if one doesn't give correct properties, e.g.,
does
$xrdb -query xpdf.geometry: at least this should cause some error.
Also mention one can use just -q.
