Many minor tweaks, including fixes for BeOS, CygWin, -QNX, and gcc-3. +Portability. A fix to the autoconfiguration means that the nasty +longjmp() code is now omitted for all modern Unix systems; previously +rc only did the Right Thing on Linux. The test for large files in +trip.rc was removed, as this causes indigestion on file systems that +don't support sparse files (the configuration and implementation of +large file support is still present of course). -Bug fixes. A number of bugs have been fixed. The serious ones were: -a core dump, triggered by `~ () '*''; premature exit, triggered by -sourcing a file which could be open()ed but not read() (such as a -directory on many systems); uninterruptible looping, triggered by -semantic errors in `fn prompt'; deficiencies in the `limit' builtin. +Bug fixes. Broken symlinks now glob correctly. The variables $prompt +and $version are now exported if they are inherited from the +environment when rc starts. EIO handling is now enabled for readline +too. A few bogosities in the history program were fixed. -New features. The following features are new: the `$version' variable -replaces the `-V' flag; the `-I' flag (definitively not interactive) -was added for compatibility with the Plan 9 rc; ASCII SOH (^A) is now -handled transparently; support for large files; support for more -process resource limits. +New features. None - this is a bugfix release. -Documentation. Distributions of this rc used to include a PostScript -paper given by Tom Duff to the UKUUG, describing the Plan 9 rc. This -paper is no longer distributed with rc, but instead is available on -the web, both in its original PostScript version, and an updated HTML -version. +Documentation. Minor updates only.
