# This test checks whether ksh93's builtin "cat" command properly
# supports the "-n" option.
#
# This was reported as CR #6835835 ('ksh93 "cat" builtin does not handle "-n" correctly'):
# ------------ snip ------------
# [Originally reported in
# http://mail.opensolaris.org/pipermail/ksh93-integration-discuss/2009-February/007050.html
# by Casper Dik]
# -- snip --
# I just noticed this in ksh93:
# ksh93 -c 'yes "" | head -5|cat -n'
# 1
# 2
# 3
# 4
# (I used this for older shells when I want to a list of all integers from 1
# to a particular number)
# -- snip --
# Frequency
# Always
# Regression
# No
# Steps to Reproduce
# Execute $ ksh93 -c 'yes "" | head -5|cat -n' #
# Expected Result
# 1
# 2
# 3
# 4
# 5
# Actual Result
#
#
# 1
# 2
#
# 3
#
# 4
# Error Message(s)
# None.
# Test Case
# See description.
# Workaround
# Disable ksh93's builtin "cat" command either via using an absolute path
# to the "cat" command (POSIX-style workaround) or using ksh93's
# "builtin" command to remove "cat" from the list of builtin
# commands (e.g. $ builtin -d /bin/cat /usr/bin/cat #).
