>Description:
I just saw a little bug in the bc tool: The usage output (-h) says something about "routnes" and I think it should be "routines"... :-))
But I am not a native speaker... www.m-w.com does not know "routnes", too, and offers as first guess "routines", which would fit in the context semantically...

type:
bc -h
