Furthermore, it is defined to be a macro, so + we don't need to use autoconf to check for it. + +1999-10-11 + + Bug: absolute globs don't need special case in doglob(). Avoids + creating path names like `//tmp', which is a UNC path under CygWin. + +1999-10-12 + + Portability: status.c assumes traditional Unix layout of 0 and 1 exit + statuses in the parent, which is not shared by BeOS. Add mkstatval.c. + +1999-10-13 + + Bug: a read(2) error in fdgchar() should call rc_raise(), not + rc_exit(). This bug is easily tickled on systems (like Linux) which + allow you to open(2) but not read(2) directories: `. /tmp'. In all + previous versions of rc, this caused the shell to exit. + + Portability: use POSIX strerror() where it's available; fake it with + sys_errlist[] where not. + + Feature: replace `-V' with `version' variable. + +1999-10-14 + + Portability: exporting `path' causes indigestion in CygWin. Since + it's virtually impossible for a child `rc' process to inherit `path' + (which I consider a bug, but it's not going to be fixed now), simply + don't export `path'. + + Portability: add /usr/bsd to default default path. + + Documentation: failing to search $path for a `.' command is at least + an incompatibility with Tenth Edition rc, and probably a bug. + +1999-11-10 + + Feature: make `version' a list. + +1999-11-11 + + Documentation: when running configure, you need to set LDFLAGS for + `-L' options, not LIBS. + + Release: rc-1.6b1. |
