- Subject: [RFA] gdb.texinfo: Use GNU/Linux instead of Linux
While making the changes that Eli recommended to Jim's charset
documentation, I noticed some uses of Linux without the GNU/ prefix.
I assume that this is okay, but I wanted to check with Eli on the use
of @sc{gnu}. There seem to be uses of plain "GNU" in the docs and
other uses where @sc{gnu} is preferred. I don't understand the pros
and cons of each, so I thought I'd send check with Eli before
committing...
