[forwarded from http://bugs.debian.org/467081]

the complaint in the bug report is that [member-name] comes before the archive file.

 _("Usage: %s [emulation options] [-]{dmpqrstx}[abcfilNoPsSuvV] [member-name]
[count] archive-file file...\n");

smallexample
ar [@option{--plugin} @var{name}] [-]@var{p}[@var{mod} [@var{relpos}]
[@var{count}]] @var{archive} [@var{member}@dots{}]
ar -M [ <mri-script ]
@end smallexample

how should this be updated?

------- Additional Comments From schwab at linux-m68k dot org  2009-07-05 15:17 -------
[member-name] and [count] are the arguments of the a, b and N modifiers, and
correspond to the [@var{relpos}] and [@var{count}] parts in the texinfo
description.
