That was a copy and paste from one of the four other man pages that has "thru". I'll change them all to "to", though my American English upbringing might suggest "through".
My Pedantic English upbringing points out that "this to that" isn't clear about whether the endpoints are included, but "this through that" includes the endpoints. (Mathematicians, the ultimate pendants, refer to the distinction as open or closed intervals).
