From 137deeb528a084ee9b58b95ca99033bea33bd106 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Cody Boone Ferguson <53008573+xexyl@users.noreply.github.com> Date: Thu, 5 Oct 2023 11:44:41 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Update FAQ about cb As I thought it was indeed in unix but it seems to have vanished. I had never seen it back then and it appears that only Plan 9 now has it. Plan 9, however, was never used for judging. FAQ now links to Unix man page for cb. --- faq.md | 13 ++++--------- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 9 deletions(-) diff --git a/faq.md b/faq.md index b1f67abcc..82a5d7326 100644 --- a/faq.md +++ b/faq.md @@ -183,16 +183,11 @@ others will be looked at, when found. ## Q: What is `cb` that is mentioned in some of the older entries? -This was a C beautifier for Plan 9.
