netstat.1: Clarify -d argument
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The man page states that the -d flag can be used to show the dropped
packets. But, the number of dropped input packets are always shown,
independent of the -d flag. This commit clarifies that the -d flag will
add the number of dropped output packets to the output.
