.B Bash

were no command substitutions, the command exits with a status of zero.
.SH "COMMAND EXECUTION"
After a command has been split into words, if it results in a
-simple command and an optional list of arguments, the following
-actions are taken.
+simple command and an optional list of arguments, the shell performs
+the following actions.
.PP
If the command name contains no slashes, the shell attempts to
locate it. If there exists a shell function by that name, that
as a set of \fBtrap\fP commands
that can be reused as shell input to
restore the current signal dispositions.
+The
+.B \-P
+option behaves similarly, but displays only the actions
+associated with each \fIsigspec\fP argument.
+.B \-P
+requires at least one \fIsigspec\fP argument.
+The \fB\-P\fP or \fB\-p\fP options to \fBtrap\fP may be used
+in a subshell environment (e.g., command substitution) and, as
+long as they are used before \fBtrap\fP is used to change a signal's
+handling, will display the state of its parent's traps.
