Package: busybox
Version: 0.46
Severity: normal
When I use cut as follows I get a "Syntax Error" message:
echo "this and that" | cut -d\ -f1
When I use cut as follows it works (notice the intervening whitespace
within "\d \ " and "-f 1"):
"echo "this and that" | cut -d \ -f 1
The GNU version of cut recognizes both methods.
I am using OL 2.3 and glibc-2.1.2-3
