Subject: [9fans] Purpose of Empty fn in /rc/bin/replica/defs
Date: Sat, 18 Dec 2004 10:02:39 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <7d7427b6357510aa6573a984fcdb1191@comcast.net> (raw)

I decided that it's about time I come to understand replica a little
better.  One thing I noticed in my first couple of minutes of poking
around this morning is that the first two lines of
/rc/bin/replica/defs are

	tmp=()
	fn 

What's the purpose of an empty fn?  I man-ed rc and didn't see that
usage.

I hope everyone is having and continues to have a happy holiday
season.  Possibly even a Merry Christmas for those of you who are
un-PC enough to have such a thing.

Thanks.

Greg
