NAME

false — should always returns false

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

IEEE Std 1003.1-2008 (“POSIX.1”) defines false as a command that does not uses standard outputs or input, yet the GNU coreutils implementation of false doesn't ignore --help and --version which could lead to bugs or unexpected behaviour.

SOURCE

GNU coreutils 8.30
