| Summary | 0000664: Document when a 'use' test matches | ||||
| Description | The magic man page says nothing about when a "use" test evaluates to true. But there are about 7 patterns in the database that rely on this unspecified behavior. I suggest that the behavior be documented, and/or the problematic patterns be reviewed. | ||||
