$ show user "JON "
This behavior changed sometime after 7.2-2, I went directly from 7.2-2 to 7.3-2 and can't say when the behavior changed, I only know that in 7.3-2 it makes no difference if the string is quoted or not, the trailing space gets trimmed, and the above command shows all usernames that begin with JON.
Does anyone know why the change was made, and if there is some other way to get the old behavior. And it should work for show user/full as well, so pipe and search won't work in the general case, and that's ugly too.
I have a symbol set in my login.com
$ jon == "SHOW USER ""JON """
But it no longer shows only my processes.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Re: Lmiting SHOW USER output to a specific user
Without taking the time for independent verification, to my eyes this would appear to be an unintentional behavior (e.g., a bug). The "RH*" syntax makes sense, but the "RH" would appear, particularly since it is reported as a changed behavior, to be an unintended anomaly.
Jon,
In this light, if the information is correct, it would appear that a call to support to "officially" report the anomaly (in all of its variations) would be in order.

Re: Lmiting SHOW USER output to a specific user
if you specify a string, all user,which names begin with the string, are displayed.
This was already so at the oldest version, I have at hand: V5.5-2.

Re: Lmiting SHOW USER output to a specific user
reading this thread just now, I was surprised by the initial statement.
To me it seems to "always" have been so.
Luckilu, for my view of the health of my memory, Kalle came up with the old (5.5-2) HELP text.
The only reasonable explanation I can come up with, is that there never happened to be users JON
Just my EUR 0,02
Proost.
Have one on me.

Re: Lmiting SHOW USER output to a specific user
As Walter suggested, you need to use:
$ SHOW USER "NAME "
