numfmt: implement missing options

[arsdragonfly]

Currently these options available in GNU numfmt are still missing:

• --debug
• -d/--delimiter
• --field
• --from-unit
• --grouping
• --invalid
• --round
• --suffix
• -z/--zero-terminated

I'll be implementing them as much as I can.

Is it okay for me to have a go at few of these? (currently thinking of --field/-d)

Fine if you want to do it of course :)

[arsdragonfly]

Yes you can work on that. Jamie <[email protected]> 于 2018年9月24日周一 08:27写道：

Looks like -d, --field, and --round have been implemented:

$ ./target/debug/coreutils numfmt --help
[...]
OPTIONS:
    -d, --delimiter <X>     use X instead of whitespace for field delimiter
        --field <FIELDS>    replace the numbers in these input fields (default=1) see FIELDS below [default: 1]
        --from <UNIT>       auto-scale input numbers to UNITs; see UNIT below [default: none]
        --header <N>        print (without converting) the first N header lines; N defaults to 1 if not specified
        --padding <N>       pad the output to N characters; positive N will right-align; negative N will left-align; padding is ignored if the output is wider than N; the default is to automatically pad
                            if a whitespace is found
        --round <METHOD>    use METHOD for rounding when scaling; METHOD can be: up,down, from-zero (default), towards-zero, nearest [default: from-zero]  [possible values: up, down, from-zero, towards-
                            zero, nearest]
        --to <UNIT>         auto-scale output numbers to UNITs; see UNIT below [default: none]

I've implemented suffix now, which solved 18 of the GNU numfmt tests. Might have a look at --invalid next :)

@sbentmar , thanks for the contribution!

I can't find the test changes; the total GNU test summary reports "GNU tests summary = TOTAL: 601 / PASS: 199 / FAIL: 295 / ERROR: 23", unchanged from 'master'. Am I missing the test change somewhere else?

[sylvestre]

@rivy probably because the .sh test from gnu isn't fulling passing.

[sbentmar]

Sorry for the confusion, 18 more of the ~400 numfmt Perl test cases are passing now. I suspect that the entire numfmt.pl test suite counts as a single test in the complete summary, so all the 400 tests need to pass for it to count. There are still 171 failing test cases, in that case :)

Ah, thanks for the clarification.
