With that logic this echoes "echo". Question about echo!

echo `echo ` doesn't echoes anything. And it's logic. But echo `echo `echo ` ` does echoes "echo". What's the logic of it? the `echo `echo ` inside of the whole (first) echo, echoes nothing, so the first echo have to echo nothing but echoes "echo" (too much echoing :P):o

gd_frameoffset64

gd_frameoffset64(3)						      GETDATA						       gd_frameoffset64(3)

NAME

       gd_frameoffset64, gd_alter_frameoffset64 -- report or change the frame offset of fields in a dirfile, with largefile support

SYNOPSIS

       #define _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE

       #include <getdata.h>

       off64_t gd_frameoffset(DIRFILE *dirfile, int fragment_index);

       int gd_alter_frameoffset64(DIRFILE *dirfile, off64_t offset, int fragment_index, int move);

DESCRIPTION

       These  version  of  gd_frameoffset(3)  and gd_alter_frameoffset(3) use a 64-bit offset type, even if off_t is a 32-bit type.  They are only
       available if the caller defines _LARGEFILE64_SOURCE before including getdata.h.

       If off_t is a 64-bit type (i.e. if _FILE_OFFSET_BITS is defined to be 64), these  function  will  be  called  gd_frameoffset()  and  gd_al-
       ter_frameoffset().  Otherwise, gd_frameoffset() and gd_alter_frameoffset() will be versions of these functions which use a 32-bit off_t.
