true {−−help,−−version}
This documentation is no longer being maintained and may be inaccurate or incomplete. The Texinfo documentation is now the authoritative source.
This manual page documents the GNU version of true (and probably every other version, as well). true does nothing except return an exit status of 0, meaning ’’success’’. It can be used as a place holder in shell scripts where a successful command is needed, although the shell built-in command ’:’ (colon) does the same thing faster.
OPTIONS
When GNU true is invoked with exactly one argument,
the following options are recognized:
|
−−help |
Print a usage message on standard output and exit successfully. |
−−version
Print version information on standard output then exit successfully.
