ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
None.

The following sections are informative.
APPLICATION USAGE
This utility is typically used in shell scripts, as shown in the EXAMPLES section. The special built-in utility : is sometimes more effi-
cient than true.
EXAMPLES
This command is executed forever:
while true
do
command
done
RATIONALE
