Michael Kerrisk 28d88c1751 Global change to many pages... 
Various pages use inconsistent terms for 'null byte' (which
is the C99/SUSv3 term for the '\0' character).
To rectify this the following changes were made in these pages:

Replace 'zero byte' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'null character' with 'null byte'.
Replace 'nulls' with 'null bytes'.
Replace 'NUL-terminated' by 'null-terminated'.
Replace 'NUL' by 'null byte'.
Replace 'terminating NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'final NUL' by 'terminating null byte'.
Replace 'NUL character' by 'null byte'.

Michael Kerrisk 7f564f717e Noted that SUSv2 allowed a range of 00 to 61 for %S specifier. 2005-03-31 13:22:34 +00:00
Michael Kerrisk 0c00f46ce7 Cartsen Hey 
as per http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=276248

    Changed range for "%S" from 0..61 to 0..60.

    SUSv3 says 0..60.  I think the manual page probably says
    0..61, because that's what SUSv2 said.
    (Some other implementations' man pages also say 0..61 --
    e.g., Solaris 8 & 9, Tru64 5.1B; FreeBSD 5.1 says 0..60.)

    The glibc manual currently says 0..60.

    Given that SUSv3 says 0..60, I've changed this the
    manual page to also say this:

        -The second as a decimal number (range 00 to 61).
        +The second as a decimal number (range 00 to 60).
        +(The range is up to 60 to allow for occasional leap seconds.)
