>Description:

Unless I need new glasses, the -q option for the bc(1) program, although
mentioned in the SYNOPSIS section of the associated man page, is not
otherwise documented in the bc(1) man page.

>How-To-Repeat:

man 1 bc

>Fix:

Somebody should stick in some verbage describing the semantics of the -q
option.

 New Revision: 259058
 URL: http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/259058
 
 Log:
   Remove mention of the compatibility option 'q', which is
   intentionally undocumented and its only purpose is that
   we do not bail out when used as a drop-in replacement of
   a different implementation.
