----------
[bash-2.0 released]
12/27
-----
configure.in
- don't automatically use GNU malloc on FreeBSD, the builtin one
is supposed to be better (but doesn't have the debugging hooks)
builtins/exec.def
- check that full_pathname(command) doesn't return NULL because of
inaccessible parent directories
support/config.sub
- recognize OpenBSD
execute_cmd.c
- broke the code that opens a file for output redirection when in
noclobber mode out into a separate function: noclobber_open().
This tries to avoid race conditions and file replacement between
stat(2) and open(2)
subst.c
- make sure pat_subst does not run off the end of its return
string when copying the unmatched portion of the input string
12/30
-----
doc/Makefile.in
- don't install readline.3 by default
lib/tilde/tilde.c
- removed an unnecessary check for string[i] being non-null in
tilde_find_suffix
12/31
-----
support/config.{sub,guess}
- merged in changes from config.sub in autoconf-2.12 distribution
lib/readline/readline.c
- in rl_newline, only call _rl_vi_done_inserting and _rl_vi_reset_last
if readline is currently in vi mode
lib/readline/display.c
- corrected a misuse of inv_lbreaks where vis_lbreaks was wanted in
the code that decides whether the cursor is at the beginning of
an otherwise-empty line
1/2
---
support/bashbug.sh
- fixed a typo, thanks to eggert@twinsun.com
aclocal.m4
- new test, BASH_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_FILENO, testing for d_fileno member
of struct dirent
configure.in
- call BASH_STRUCT_DIRENT_D_FILENO
config.h.in
- new #define for STRUCT_DIRENT_HAS_D_FILENO
lib/posixheaders/posixdir.h
- only define d_fileno as d_ino if STRUCT_DIRENT_HAS_D_INO is defined
and STRUCT_DIRENT_HAS_D_FILENO is not defined. This fixed the
problem of compiling getcwd.c on SunOS4.1.4 with cc
1/3
---
lib/readline/complete.c
- fix a memory-used-after-freed bug reported by Andreas Schwab
configure.in
- call BASH_CHECK_SOCKLIB only if getpeername is not found in libc
(ac_cv_func_getpeername = no)
1/13
----
builtins/getopt.h
- change #define guard to _SH_GETOPT_H to avoid similar guards in
/usr/include/getopt.h (Dec OSF/1 4.x, for example)
variables.h
- fix assign_array_from_string so that it rejects attempts to assign
to readonly variables
subst.c
- fix verify_substring_values to handle offsets that are past the
end or before the beginning (in the case of a negative offset)
of the expanded variable value
1/14
----
bashline.c
- fix a problem where any completion after a `cmd` command
substitution would inappropriately attempt command completion,
even if the previous command substitution was correctly closed
builtins/evalstring.c
- unwind_protect remember_on_history even if the shell is not
interactive, since history can now be used in scripts, and
`source' will turn off interactive_shell before calling
parse_and_execute
jobs.c
- new function get_job_by_pid(pid, block) to translate a pid to
a job number. The block argument says whether or not to block
SIGCHLD
jobs.h
- new extern declaration for get_job_by_pid
builtins/jobs.def
- call get_job_by_pid if an argument appears to be a pid rather
than a jobspec
configure.in
- configure --without-gnu-malloc automatically on MachTen 4.x
builtins/cd.def
- change to mindist() so that a best guess of `.' returns 3,
which means not reasonable
lib/posixheaders/memalloc.h
- changed hpux_9 to __hpux, since the new config stuff doesn't
define hpux_9
subst.c
- fix parameter_brace_patsub to handle null patterns (doesn't
do anything)
oslib.c
- slight change to bzero replacement
support/bashbug.sh
- changed TEMP to be /tmp/bbug.$$ as a sop to systems with 14-char
file names
doc/bashref.texi
- add note to POSIX Mode section that the output of `set' when
invoked without arguments is sorted when in POSIX mode
1/15
----
support/recho.c
- a couple of changes prompted by a `gcc -Wall'
subst.c
- changed ASSIGN_RETURN macro to use the do...while(0) idiom to
avoid problems with its multiple statements
builtins/setattr.def
- a bad identifier given to readonly or export without an assignment
statement (e.g. `readonly a[5]') is an error, but not an assignment
error (i.e., return EXECUTION_FAILURE rather than EX_BADASSIGN)
tests/{{array,new-exp}.,tilde-}tests
- added `set +o posix' at the beginning to disable POSIX mode, which
causes some of the tests to fail. Some systems (e.g. LINUX-FT),
set POSIXLY_CORRECT by default
tests/test-tests
- added a warning if $UID is 0 to the effect that the test suite
should not be run as root
- worked around the `noread' and `nowrite' tests failing when run
as root
test.c
- began removing the remains of the STANDALONE code, since test is
included in GNU shellutils
1/16
----
lib/readline/{readline,display}.c
- a couple of slight changes to build on Win95 using djgpp (reported
by x-aes@telelogic.se)
Makefile.in
- changed TERMCAP_LIBDIR to TERM_LIBDIR, so building the termcap
library (if necessary) should work now
bashline.c
- new function: quote_word_break_characters(), to backslash-quote
characters in a filename that the readline completion code would
treat as word breaks
- change bash_quote_filename to call quote_word_break_characters if
the completion quoting style says to use backslashes
- add `:' to rl_filename_quote_characters, since it's part of
filename_word_break_characters
lib/posixheaders/posixjmp.h
- new file, with half of bashjmp.h
- posixjmp.h and lib/readline/posixjmp.h are symlinks to this file
bashjmp.h
- include "posixjmp.h" for possible redefinitions of setjmp/longjmp
and procenv_t
1/17
----
shell.c
- bad options now cause the standard shell usage message (a subset
of what `bash --help' prints) to be displayed on stderr
trap.c
- don't free the trap command for a DEBUG trap in
restore_default_signal if SIG_INPROGRESS is set -- there's already
a pointer saved to the old value in _run_trap_internal. This
makes bashdb run better, too
examples/bashdb/bashdb.{pre,fns}
- a couple of minor fixes; it actually has a chance of working now
1/21
----
config.h.in
- add a define for <dlfcn.h>, HAVE_DLFCN_H
configure.in
- look for <dlfcn.h>, define HAVE_DLFCN_H if found
builtins/enable.def
- include <dlfcn.h> only if HAVE_DLFCN_H is defined
lib/readline/display.c
- renamed clear_to_eol to _rl_clear_to_eol and made it global, so
other library files (readline.c) can use it
- new function _rl_clear_screen, to clear the screen with the right
termcap escape sequence
lib/readline/readline.c
- call _rl_clear_to_eol and _rl_clear_screen instead of using tputs
- extern declarations for _rl_clear_to_eol and _rl_clear_screen
1/22
----
mailcheck.c
- fixed a problem in make_default_mailpath() where a slash was not
added between the default mail directory and the username
1/23
----
stringlib.c
- added a fourth parameter to ansicstr: the length of the returned
string
externs.h
- changed declaration of ansicstr
parse.y
- changed call to ansicstr -- saves a call to strlen
builtins/echo.def
- changed call to ansicstr
- if do_v9 is non-zero, use putchar to output the string instead
of printf, since there may be embedded NULL characters
doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}, builtins/trap.def
- modified the `trap' documentation to make it clearer that trap
takes multiple signal specs as arguments
jobs.c, nojobs.c, jobs.h
- renamed initialize_jobs to initialize_job_control, added an
argument (force)
jobs.c
- set shell_tty to fileno(stderr) in initialize_job_control if
the shell is not interactive. This fixes the problem of bad
tty pgrps when monitor mode is turned on in a non-interactive
shell
sig.c
- made initialize_terminating_signals do only that; moved the rest
of the code that used to be there into a new function:
initialize_shell_signals, which calls initialize_terminating_signals
if the shell is interactive
- initialize_terminating_signals is now extern
- made reset_terminating_signals return immediately if
termsigs_intitialized is zero, meaning that
initialize_terminating_signals has not been called
sig.h
- new extern declaration for initialize_terminating_signals
trap.c
- call initialize_terminating_signals from set_signal if sig is
EXIT_TRAP and the shell is not interactive. Since the terminating
signals do not need to be initialized until a trap on exit is
set, not doing that at startup should result in a speed increase
for scripts
execute_cmd.c
- save and restore command->flags in time_command, so you can use
`time command' in a loop
1/24
----
lib/readline/display.c
- fix redisplay code to wrap correctly if the prompt is longer than
the screen width (reported by bos@Eng.Sun.COM)
lib/readline/undo.c
- don't include <setjmp.h>, it's not needed
lib/readline/{util,readline}.c
- include "posixjmp.h" instead of <setjmp.h>
- readline_top_level is now a `procenv_t' instead of a `jmp_buf'
(now readline uses the correct posix semantics for preserving
the signal mask and other things across longjmp)
parse.y
- fixes to push_string/pop_string to make them more general -- they
now can be used generally, instead of having to be associated
with an alias being expanded
- fixes to the parser so that it parses (( ls abc; ls def); ls ghi)
as a nested subshell command for backwards compatibility. Broke
the double-paren expression parsing off into a new function:
parse_arith_cmd, called from read_token when a `((' is seen. If
it looks like an arithmetic command, return `let' and set things
up so that the expression is returned as a double-quoted string
by the next call to read_token. If it's a nested subshell, push
the text we parsed onto the list of strings for later consumption
and return `('
lib/glob/glob.c
- fix glob_vector so it doesn't short-circuit checking a filename if
it starts with a `.' and the pattern starts with `\.' (if
noglob_dot_filenames is set). This makes `".junk2"*' match
`.junk2.txt' correctly
1/27
----
support/bashbug.sh
- ask for confirmation before sending the bug report
builtins/fc.def
- when editing and re-executing a multiline command, make sure
current_command_line_count is initialized and then incremented
for each line read from the file so that the lines added to
the history list by fc_replhist and fc_addhist obey the `lithist'
and `cmdhist' shopt options. Reported by tibbitts@pb.seflin.org
1/28
----
lib/readline/readline.h
- added a couple of extern declarations for variables described in
the documentation but heretofore undeclared
builtins/ulimit.def
- try to catch some classes of integer overflows before calling
set_limit
1/29
----
parse.y
- push and pop a `(' delimiter while parsing a $(...) construct, so
the history code doesn't try to inappropriately add a `;' when
a newline appears in the `...'
aclocal.m4
- new macro, BASH_STRUCT_WINSIZE, which looks for `struct winsize'
in <sys/ioctl.h> (or one of the files it includes)
configure.in
- call BASH_STRUCT_WINSIZE
- slightly reorganized the calls to bash-specific macros
config.h.in
- add an `#undef STRUCT_WINSIZE_IN_SYS_IOCTL'
jobs.c, nojobs.c
- only look in sys/ptem.h for struct winsize if
STRUCT_WINSIZE_IN_SYS_IOCTL is not defined to cpp
1/30
----
.{distribution,patchlevel}
- renamed to _{distribution,patchlevel}
configure.in
- create a variable BASHVERS, from the contents of _distribution,
and a variable BASHPATCH, from the contents of _patchlevel,
(using m4 magic so we don't have to distribute .distribution
and .patchlevel) and substitute them into Makefile.in
Makefile.in
- use Version and PatchLevel variables instead of the contents of
.distribution and .patchlevel, respectively. These are set by
configure
- removed `.machine' from targets and dependencies
support/mkversion.sh
- new shell script to handle updating version.h, replaces mkversion.c
(which is now overkill)
support/mkdist
- don't bother with writing .distribution and .patchlevel files,
since they're no longer distributed
support/mknewvers.sh
- simple bash script to make new version files. It can increment
the major or minor version numbers or patchlevel, or take a
completely new version number (e.g., 2.01) as an argument
doc/Makefile.in
- added support for the `install-info' command to update the info
directory file after installing bash.info
1/31
----
builtins/help.def
- fix core dump with `help --'
susbt.c
- make call_expand_word_internal obey the convention that if
expand_word_internal returns &expand_word_{fatal,error}, then
w->word has already been freed
- return &expand_word_fatal from expand_word_internal if the shell
is not interactive and `set -u' has been executed
test.c, general.c
- moved group_member from test.c to general.c
externs.h, general.h
- moved extern declaration of group_member from externs.h to general.h
general.c
- broke the code that initializes the group array out into a new
function, initialize_group_array()
- initialize_group_array() now initializes an array even if the OS
does not have getgroups(). If it does not, an array with one
element (the real gid) is created
- call sysconf(_SC_NGROUPS_MAX) if sysconf is available and
_SC_NGROUPS_MAX is defined
- new function, char **get_group_list(int *), to return an array
of strings made from the groups list
variables.c
- new dynamic array variable: GROUPS, expands to the group set as
obtained with getgroups() (or whatever initialize_group_array()
makes)
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- added description of GROUPS variable
test/test-tests
- before modifying the setgid bit on /tmp/setgid, try to change its
group to ${GROUPS[0]}
2/3
---
aclocal.m4
- new autconf macro, BASH_MISC_SPEED_T, to see if speed_t is defined
in <sys/types.h>
configure.in
- call BASH_MISC_SPEED_T
config.h.in
- add `#undef SPEED_T_IN_SYS_TYPES'
lib/readline/tcap.h
- include `rltty.h' if HAVE_TERMCAP_H and __linux__ are defined, but
SPEED_T_IN_SYS_STYPES is not, before including <termcap.h>
support/mksignames.c, siglist.c
- add support for 4.4 BSD SIGLOST
support/config.guess
- add support for recognizing QNX based on `uname' output
Makefile.in
- make sure recho and zecho are compiled with the same set of CC
options as the rest of the sources
lib/readline/bind.c
- change calls to rl_generic_bind to cast the third argument to
(char *) where necessary
command.h
- two new flags: CMD_AMPERSAND (currently unused), and CMD_STDIN_REDIR,
which means that this command should have its standard input
redirected from /dev/null if there are not any explicit redirections
to stdin
execute_cmd.c
- a redirection of type r_inputa_direction is no longer added at the
beginning of the redirection chain for an async command;
CMD_STDIN_REDIR is set in the flags instead
- new function: stdin_redirects: returns the number of redirections to
stdin in a chain of redirections
- new functions: async_redirect_stdin() to open /dev/null and make it
file descriptor 0
- changes to make CMD_STDIN_REDIR propagate to all of the necessary
functions (like execute_simple_command)
- execute_disk command now takes the flags from simple_command rather
than just the CMD_NO_FORK flag as its last argument
- various places after make_child is executed (in the child) check for
CMD_STDIN_REDIRECT (and no stdin redirections or piping) and call
async_redirect_stdin
- stdin_redir is now global
eval.c
- set stdin_redir to 0 just before calling execute_command so it
gets reset to a known value and doesn't persist across commands
2/4
---
builtins/ulimit.def
- add a stub function for ulimit(2) on systems without HAVE_RESOURCE
or HAVE_ULIMIT that just sets errno to EINVAL and returns -1 --
QNX is one such system
bashhist.c
- pre_process_line needs to protect all occurrences of hist_verify
with #ifdef READLINE
builtins/shopt.def
- hist_verify needs to be protected with #ifdef READLINE, not
#ifdef HISTORY
2/5
---
support/config.{guess,sub}, configure.in
- chages to better support the Harris Night Hawk
[many files]
- changes for things pointed out by gcc -Wall
lib/glob/Makefile.in
- make sure -DSHELL is included in CCFLAGS so that globbing is
interruptible
lib/malloc/malloc.c
- extern declaration for botch: if botch is #defined, it should be
the name of a void function
configure.in,Makefile.in,builtins/Makefile.in,
lib/{glob,malloc,readline,tilde}/Makefile.in
- add a LOCAL_DEFS variable, substituted from configure into the
various Makefiles. It's set to -DSHELL, so that define gets
passed to all sub-makes without doing anything special
lib/readline/readline.c
- change to rl_digit_loop to make it compatible with GNU emacs:
if a key bound to `universal-argument' is read after reading
some digits, it terminates the argument but is otherwise
ignored. This is how people can insert repeated digits
doc/{bash.{1,html},readline.3}, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
- changed description of `universal-argument' to describe how
to terminate a numeric argument
2/6
---
jobs.c
- changed kill_pid to diddle the job and process data structures
if we're sending SIGCONT to a stopped job with `kill' so that
the shell knows the job is running again. ksh93 does this
2/7
---
unwind_prot.c
- changed bcopy to FASTCOPY
builtins/enable.def
- changed pointer arithmetic in delete_builtin to just subtract
the head of the builtins list (shell_builtins) from a pointer
to the builtin to be deleted (b) to find its index in the list
on ANSI C systems
2/10
----
lib/readline/bind.c
- when using old-style keynames to bind to a new-style macro,
pass an array of type (unsigned char *) to rl_macro_bind
builtins/getopt.c
- change sh_getopt to return EOF if nextchar is empty or NULL
and sh_optind is greater than argc. This can happen if a
script mixes calls to `getopts' with calls to `shift'
2/11
----
print_cmd.c
- fixed make_command_string_internal so that commands with the
CMD_TIME_POSIX flag set print `time -p' instead of `time'
- changed print_redirection_list so the here documents are
printed after all the other redirections, and followed by a
newline (rather than a possible semicolon)
- added a new variable, was_heredoc, to avoid adding a semicolon
at the beginning of an empty line after printing the heredoc
ending delimiter
execute_cmd.c
- don't put the gnu_argv_flags into the environment any more; it's
proven to be a bad idea
configure.in
- set LOCAL_CFLAGS to `-DSunOS5' on Solaris 5.5[.x]
builtins/echo.def
- only call fflush() after printing each word on SunOS 5.5, since
that's the system with the bug that prompted its inclusion in
the first place
support/mksignames.c
- added support for more system-specific signals from AIX 4.2,
changed initialization order so that system-specific signals
are done first, before the common signals
2/12
----
execute_cmd.c
- broke the code that creates a file containing the text of a
here document out into a separate function: here_doc_to_fd
- create the temp file used for a here document with mode 600
- open the temp file used for a here document with O_EXCL
shell.h
- changed the uid members of struct user_info to be of type uid_t
and the gid members to be of type gid_t
parse.y
- changed the type of the `type' argument to init_yy_io() to be
`enum stream_type', since that's what's always passed
input.h
- changed the function prototype for init_yy_io so the third arg is
type `enum stream_type'
externs.h
- added a prototype for getcwd, if HAVE_GETCWD is not defined
builtins/umask.def
- changed all variables that are used as arguments to or save the
return value from umask(2) to be of type mode_t
- changed print_symbolic_umask to take an argument of type mode_t
2/13
----
jobs.c
- if old_sigint_handler is set to SIG_DFL, as it will be in a script
without a trap on SIGINT installed, call termination_unwind_protect()
directly from waitchld()
2/14
----
configure.in
- added a section before the call to BASH_CHECK_LIB_TERMCAP to
set a variable prefer_curses on some systems (AIX, for one)
aclocal.m4
- in BASH_CHECK_LIB_TERMCAP, don't return -ltermcap if $prefer_curses
is non-empty
lib/readline/Makefile.in
- redid the dependencies
2/17
----
hashlib.c, getcwd.c
- include `bashansi.h' instead of stdlib.h and string.h
error.c, siglist.c, xmalloc.c, builtins/{common,evalfile,mkbuiltins,psize}.c,
builtins/{exec,exit,fg_bg,hash,history}.def
- include `bashtypes.h' instead of directly including <sys/types.h>
builtins/fc.def
- include ../bashtypes.h and ../posixstat.h instead of bashtypes.h
and posixstat.h
builtins/mkbuiltins.c
- include ../posixstat.h instead of <sys/stat.h>
general.h
- include `bashtypes.h' if RLIMTYPE is defined, so we can fetch
a definition of quad_t (or whatever) from <sys/types.h> before
using it in a function prototype
Makefile.in, builtins/Makefile.in
- updated dependencies
2/18
----
builtins/set.def
- new function, set_posix_mode, called when `set [-+]o posix'
or `shopt -[su] -o posix' is executed. It sets or unsets
$POSIXLY_CORRECT and calls sv_strict_posix
subst.c
- in sv_strict_posix, call posix_readline_initialize only if
the shell is interactive (interactive_shell != 0)
shell.c
- if we are acting like `sh', call posix_readline_initialize
if the shell is interactive
- moved the code that does posix.2 mode initialization after
interactive_shell is set, and call posix_readline_initialize
if interactive_shell is non-zero
bashwait.h
- renamed to unionwait.h, since that is what it defines
posixwait.h
- moved the POSIX 1003.1 job control defines here from jobs.h
jobs.h
- include `posixwait.h'
2/19
----
braces.c
- if SHELL is defined, pass the contents of new-style command
substitution through without expanding brace constructs between
the parens -- let the subshell do it
subst.c
- when brace-expanding words, preserve the flags (word->flags) if
brace expansion does not change the word. This fixes the problem
of things like
local -a avar=( ${PATH//: } );
bashline.c
- have shell_expand_line pass a copy of rl_line_buffer to expand_string
in case there are substitution errors and the string gets freed
2/20
----
expr.c
- make sure that expland and explor set `lasttok' to LAND and LOR,
respectively, if they parse `&&' or `||'. This makes the
precedence code work right
subst.c
- changes so that non-interactive shells exit immediately when a
parameter that is unset is referenced after `set -u' has been
executed causes the shell to exit immediately
2/21
----
flags.c
- if `set -r' is executed, call maybe_make_restricted so that $PATH
and $SHELL are made read-only
execute_cmd.c
- if `set -e' has been executed, and we're inverting a pipeline's
return status with `!', set CMD_IGNORE_RETURN so a failing
command does not inadvertently cause the shell to exit before
the exit status can be inverted. This is probably only a problem
with the `eval' builtin.
2/24
----
builtins/hash.def
- add a missing argument of 0 to add_hashed_command
builtins/kill.def
- job identifiers can be used in non-interactive shells as long as
job control has been turned on with `set -m'
jobs.c
- we want to be notified of stopped jobs if job_control is non-zero,
even if the shell is not interactive
execute_cmd.c
- make sure shell_execve returns EX_NOTFOUND if execve fails and
errno is set to ENOENT
- makes sure execute_builtin saves the temporary environment to
builtin_env for the `eval' builtin, since it can destroy the
temporary environment when it calls parse_and_execute
bashhist.c
- new variable: hist_last_line_added, set to 1 if the last command
line was added to the history successfully as a separate entry.
Used by `history' and `fc'
2/25
----
trap.c
- save line number before executing trap command, because
parse_and_execute resets it to 1 and the trap command might
want it
execute_cmd.c
- change to executing_line_number to return trap_line_number if
the shell is currently running a trap
2/26
----
execute_cmd.c
- change to time_command so that a `real' value of 0 does not
cause a divide-by-zero error when computing cpu percentage
lib/readline/signals.c
- if MUST_REINSTALL_SIGHANDLERS is defined, reinstall the SIGWINCH
handler in rl_handle_sigwinch
builtins/set.def
- `unset' now rejects attempts to unset names that are not valid
shell identifiers as errors
- add a description of `-o history' option to help text
subst.c
- in parameter_brace_patsub, we want backslash removal done on
the replacement if (mflags & MATCH_QUOTED), since the code
in expand_word_internal will not do it. We need to call
expand_string_unsplit directly, since maybe_expand_string does
not do the right thing
2/28
----
execute_cmd.c
- if execute_for_command finds that the iteration variable is readonly,
decrement loop_level before returning
builtins/break.def
- if the break count is <= 0, display an error message and break out
of all loops
builtins/command.def
- if PATH is unset, and we're using command -p, we don't want PATH
to be set to the empty string when `command' completes
builtins/common.c
- POSIX.2 says `kill -l signum' prints the signal name without the
leading `SIG' prefix, so check for this_shell_builtin == kill_builtin
in display_signal_list
builtins/getopts.def
- when invoked without any arguments, `getopts' now prints a usage
message
3/3
---
builtins/common.c
- add a second argument to get_numeric_arg: if non-zero, the shell
exits on a bad argument; if not, the shell jumps to top_level
with a DISCARD argument, which aborts the current command
builtins/{break,exit,history,return,shift}.def
- change calls to get_numeric_argument
lib/readline/funmap.c
- add `dump-macros' to list of bindable names
lib/readline/readline.h
- added extern declaration for rl_prompt (it was apparently missing)
lib/readline/readline.c
- new internal function, _rl_init_line_state, which sets rl_point
and rl_end to 0, sets the_line to point to _rl_line_buffer, and

lib/readline/callback.c
- if a user's callback function does not clear the line, clear it
for him by calling _rl_init_line_state

alias.c
- made the readline support functions #ifdef READLINE, so they're
not compiled into the shell unless readline is
lib/readline/bind.c
- new function _rl_untranslate_macro_value, to expand meta-prefixes
and other special characters in a macro value for printing by
_rl_macro_dumper_internal
- call _rl_untranslate_macro_value in _rl_macro_dumper_internal to
get a printable version of the macro value
lib/readline/readline.c
- new variable, rl_dispatching, set to 1 when we call a function
from _rl_dispatch
lib/readline/readline.h
- extern declaration for rl_dispatching
lib/readline/complete.c
- make sure S_ISCHR and S_ISBLK are defined before using them
lib/readline/terminal.c
- add a new #define NEED_EXTERN_PC. Define this if the termcap
or curses libraries need `extern' before declarations of PC,
BC, and UP
lib/readline/{readline,terminal,histfile}.c
- changes to compile on OS/2 with OS/2 `EMX' port of gcc, originally
sent by ilya@math.ohio-state.edu
builtins/set.def
- fixed a bug in set_shellopts that caused the shell to crash if
there were no shell options set

configure.in,Makefile.in
- choose run-all or run-minimal as the test script based on whether
the --enable-minimal-config option was given to configure
builtins/setattr.def
- fixed `export -p' and `readonly -p' so that they output `export'
or `readonly' when in POSIX mode, as POSIX.2 specifies
3/6
---
builtins/setattr.def
- make `readonly -a var=(...)' work just like `declare -ar var=(...)',
since the two logically mean the same
- `readonly -f' and `export -f' don't print the function definition
for each readonly or exported function, respectively, when in
POSIX mode
jobs.c, nojobs.c
- don't report status for processes killed by SIGPIPE if
DONT_REPORT_SIGPIPE is defined
config.h.top
- added a commented-out define for DONT_REPORT_SIGPIPE
execute_cmd.c
- `time' can now be used to time background pipelines, and reports
the timing statistics when the pipeline completes
[bash-2.01-alpha1 frozen]

subst.c
- move the parent end of the pipe file descriptor used for process
substitution to a high, unused file descriptor to avoid clashes
with redirections performed explicitly by a script
configure.in
- added a `--with-curses' argument so curses can be forcibly chosen
over libtermcap (some Unix versions ship lousy termcap databases)
support/mkconffiles
- new script to create _distribution and _patchlevel from values
contained in `configure'
doc/bashref.texi
- updated installation instructions

general.c
- if `getgroups' returns 0, make sure we add the primary group id
as GROUPS[0].
- if we have getgroups, and the primary gid is not in the array
getgroups returns, add it as group_array[0] and shuffle everything
up one element. This ensures that current_user.gid == group_array[0]

tests/builtins.tests
- changes to avoid stray variables in environment when the shell
version of printenv is used with bash as /bin/sh, running the
`exec -c' tests.

configure.in
- configure --without-gnu-malloc by default on *-sgi-irix6* because
their code needs 8-byte alignment
support/bashbug.sh
- ``' needs to be quoted with a backslash in double-quoted strings
aclocal.m4
- slight changes to the strcoll test, since AIX 4.2 returns -1, 0, or
1 from strcmp(3) but a numeric collation order difference from
strcoll(3)

command.h
- new redirection error code: HEREDOC_REDIRECT
execute_cmd.c

here document temp file creation fails (HEREDOC_REDIRECT)
3/19

subst.c
- changes to match_pattern_char: return 1 if the first char of the
pattern is `?' only if the string is non-null; just return 1 if
the first char of the pattern is `[' and the string is non-empty
rather than try to re-implement the brace matching code from fnmatch
lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- some changes from glibc-2.0.1 posix/fnmatch.c
3/21
----
variables.c
- only do the initialization of `ignoreeof' if the shell is
interactive
- reset values of $SHLVL > 1000 to 1 in adjust_shell_level, and
don't call itos, since we don't need its generality
- new function, initialize_shell_level, just calls adjust_shell_level
with argument of 1. If $SHLVL is unset, adjust_shell_level will
deal with it correctly
- change initialize_shell_variables to not malloc a copy of each
environment variable, just keep two pointers into the env string:
one for the name, one for the value
- broke the code that computes the value of $BASH out into a separate
function: get_bash_name
- get_bash_name special-cases shell_name with a `./' prefix when
initializing $BASH
- new function: set_home_var, sets $HOME to current_user.home_dir if
it's not already set, calling get_current_user_info if
current_user.home_dir is NULL
- new function: set_shell_var, sets $SHELL to current_user.shell if
it's not already set, calling get_current_user_info if
current_user.shell is NULL
- changed places that reference information in current_user to check
for NULL values of the member they're interested in and call
get_current_user_info if necessary
shell.c
- moved the code that sets up the information in current_user that
comes from the password file into a new function,
get_current_user_info
- shell_initialize calls get_current_user_info only if the shell is
interactive
externs.h
- new extern declaration for get_current_user_info(), so variables.c
can use it

nojobs.c
- don't try to open /dev/tty when getting or setting the tty state

- initialize shell_tty to standard error in initialize_job_control
- only fetch the tty state initially if the shell is interactive
general.c
- open /dev/tty with the O_NONBLOCK flag
variables.c
- changed all_vars so that it sorts its output all the time, not
just when in POSIX mode. This means that the output of `set'
and `export' will be sorted
builtins/set.def
- in initialize_shell_options, only call parse_shellopts if we
inherited $SHELLOPTS from the environment
- make sure we call parse_shellopts from initialize_shell_options
with a copy of the value of SHELLOPTS, in case one of the functions
called while setting one of the variables modifies $SHELLOPTS
lib/readline/readline.c
- make sure that digit arguments don't change the state of
rl_last_func
support/printenv.c
- new file, printenv(1) clone, used to avoid environment variables
that might be set automatically when using printenv.sh
lib/tilde/tilde.c
- if SHELL is defined, don't call getenv to get the value of $HOME,
call get_string_value () directly
3/26
----
lib/readline/histexpand.c
- abstracted the `#ifdef SHELL' stuff that checked for special cases
that should not be history expanded ([!...], ${!...}) into a call
to a function that is the value of the
new history_inhibit_expansion_function variable
lib/readline/history.h
- extern declaration for history_inhibit_expansion_function
bashhist.c
- new function, bash_history_inhibit_expansion, which checks for
the special cases in which history expansion should be inhibited
- changes to the various history initialization functions to
set history_inhibit_expansion_function
lib/readline/doc/hstech.texinfo
- documented history_inhibit_expansion_function
lib/readline/shell.c
- new file, containing versions of the functions that are provided
by bash when readline is linked as part of bash
- new function: get_env_value(). If SHELL is defined, this calls
get_string_value(). If SHELL is not defined, this calls getenv()
lib/readline/histexpand.c
- moved single_quote() to shell.c
lib/readline/util.c
- moved savestring() to shell.c
lib/readline/terminal.c
- moved set_lines_and_columns() to shell.c
lib/readline/Makefile.in, Makefile.in
- added shell.c and shell.o to the appropriate variables that contain
the files comprising the readline and history libraries
lib/readline/signals.c
- introduced two new cpp defines: HANDLE_JOB_SIGNALS and
HANDLE_SIGTERM. When HANDLE_JOB_SIGNALS is defined, SIGTSTP,
SIGTTIN, and SIGTTOU are caught and handled. When HANDLE_SIGTERM
is defined, SIGTERM is caught and handled. These are both
defined automatically if SHELL is not defined
lib/readline/{bind,histfile,nls,readline,terminal}.c
- call get_env_value instead of getenv(). This should remove the
dependency on being able to redefine getenv() in oslib.c
shell.c
- added a missing argument of -1 to the call to list_minus_o_opts.
Now `bash -o' lists all options, not just random ones depending
on what's on the stack

builtins/ulimit.def
- change RLIM_INFINITY to the hard limit only if the hard limit is
greater than the current (soft) limit
hashlib.c
- return immediately from flush_hash_table if the hash table passed
is NULL
4/1
---
shell.c
- remove call to initialize_filename_hashing -- initialize the hash
table the first time a hashed command has to be remembered
hashcmd.c
- new file, with functions to perform filename hashing and lookup
taken from builtins/hash.def and builtins/common.c
- change to remember_filename -- call initialize_filename_hashing
if hashing_initialized is 0
hashcmd.h
- new file, mostly from builtins/hashcom.h, with extern function
declarations added
execute_cmd.c, builtins/{hash,type}.def
- include hashcmd.h for hash function and type definitions
builtins/{common.{c,h},hash.def}
- moved hashing functions and declarations to hashcmd.c/hashcmd.h
Makefile.in, builtins/Makefile.in
- changed source and object file definitions and dependencies because
of addition of hashcmd.h and hashcmd.c
builtins/hash.def
- return immediately from print_hashed_commands if hashed_commands
is empty, indicating that the hash table has not been initialized
4/2
---
lib/readline/bind.c
- fixed translation of ESC in rl_untranslate_keyseq and
rl_untranslate_macro_value
lib/readline/{readline,kill}.c
- added an argument to _rl_fix_point telling it whether or not to
fix up the mark also; changed calls to _rl_fix_point to add the
appropriate argument
Makefile.in
- changed the substitution delimiter in the `sed' commands that
create bashbug from `:' to `%' to avoid conflicts with options
containing `:'
4/3
---
print_cmd.c
- made the initial value and the default growth value for the
printed command somewhat smaller -- we don't really need to
allocate 4096 bytes for the printed command
- added stdarg support to xprintf if PREFER_STDARG is defined
stringlib.c
- changed strip_trailing to take the index of the last character
as the second argument, saving a (useless) call to strlen, since
the caller already knows where the end of the string is
subst.c
- change call to strip_trailing in command_substitute to add the
new second argument
externs.h
- changed extern declaration for strip_trailing
4/4
---
Makefile.in, configure.in, lib/malloc/Makefile.in
- changed the strategy for picking which `malloc' to include by
having configure define a `malloc target' and the Makefile in
lib/malloc implementing rules for that target
4/5
---
Makefile.in
- slightly changed the rules for remaking `parser-built': it is
now a copy of y.tab.h, updated only when the contents of y.tab.h
change
- everything that used to depend on y.tab.h now depends on
parser-built
4/6
---
execute_cmd.c, print_cmd.c
- use #include <y.tab.h> so we pick up y.tab.h from the build
directory instead of the source directory if it happens to be
recreated in the build directory
4/7
---
bashline.c
- fixed another problem with `pwd`/[TAB] thinking that the `/
started an unclosed command substitution, generating errors
4/8
---
general.c
- renamed bash_tilde_expansion_failure_hook to be
bash_special_tilde_expansions, since that more accurately reflects
its function
- changed tilde_initialize so that there is no failure hook -- the
special expansions are handled first with the preexpansion hook
lib/tilde/tilde.c
- new variable: tilde_expansion_preexpansion_hook -- if non-null, it
points to a function that is called before standard tilde expansion
is attempted
lib/tilde/tilde.h
- extern declaration for tilde_expansion_preexpansion_hook
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- added optional open paren to description of `case' command syntax
4/9
---
variables.c
- on qnx, set and export a variable `NODE' which contains the QNX
`node id'
general.c
- QNX system can now handle pathnames with a leading `//'
configure.in
- added `-Dqnx' to LOCAL_CFLAGS on QNX machines
lib/malloc/getpagesize.h
- some systems need sysconf(_SC_PAGE_SIZE) to obtain the page size;
added code to check for it
4/10
----
print_cmd.c
- include the prototype for cprintf only if PREFER_STDARG is defined,
otherwise just have a K&R-style forward function declaration
hashlib.h
- reduced the default number of buckets in a hash table to 53
lib/tilde/tilde.c
- prime the result string in tilde_expand by allocating a new string
that's as long as the input string (+16 if a tilde appears in
the string to be expanded). This should reduce the number of
reallocs
subst.c
- broke the code that reads the output of a command substitution
through the pipe to the subshell out into a separate function:
read_comsub(). This does not use stdio, but rather reads
directly from the pipe into a local 128-character buffer
4/11
----
execute_cmd.c
- some systems need both <sys/time.h> and <time.h>, so include both
if it's possible, otherwise include <sys/time.h> (if present)
lib/readline/rl{tty,defs}.h
- moved includes of <sys/stream.h>, <sys/ptem.h>, etc. to rltty.h
lib/readline/terminal.c
- include rltty.h after rldefs.h
variables.c
- changes to make environment creation faster and use less memory
(fewer malloc/free calls, too):
o two new variables: export_env_index (how many environment
strings are in export_env) and export_env_size (the
number of slots for strings allocated in export_env)
o added new function add_to_export_env, since adding the
exported shell variables and shell functions does not
need to search the export_env for a definition to supersede
(we just cleared it out!)
o renamed add_or_supersede to add_or_supersede_exported_var,
since it always works on export_env, and changed the second
argument to a flag saying whether or not to allocate a new
copy of the string placed into the environment
o changed calls to add_or_supersede to the new
add_or_supersede_exported_var with the appropriate flags
o don't free and reallocate export_env in maybe_make_export_env,
just free the strings and start anew
o prime the size of export_env from the total number of shell
variables and shell functions -- this will always be enough
for the exported shell functions and variables, and big
enough most of the time for the entire environment
builtins/cd.def
- efficiency hack in bindpwd(): if PWD is exported, we will have to
rebuild the entire exported environment after every time we change
directories. What we do is see if array_needs_making changes value
from 0 to 1 after bind_variable ("PWD", dirname) is called, and
that PWD is exported. If that happens, we just replace the value
of PWD in the exported environment with a call to
add_or_supersede_exported_var
bashline.c, parse.y
- check calls to pre_process_line to make a fresh copy of the line
if pre_process_line returns what it was passed, in preparation
for future changes
bashhist.c
- pre_process_line now returns its argument if it did not make
any changes to it
alias.c
- free the bucket entry holding the alias to be removed in
remove_alias, as well as the data
4/14
----
unwind_prot.c
- if an unwind-protect frame is being discarded, and its cleanup
function is `restore_variable', the `arg' member points to a
SAVED_VAR that must be freed. This change is made in
remove_unwind_protect_internal and unwind_frame_discard_internal
parse.y
- need to free memory allocated by parse_arith_cmd if it is an
arithmetic command, after using it to make a new word
subst.c
- fixed some memory leaks caused by not freeing the argument to
make_bare_word, which duplicates its string argument
- need to dispose list generated by list_rest_of_args in
paramter_list_remove_pattern
- make sure the return value from getpattern() is freed
- make sure array_value_internal always returns newly-allocated
memory
- get_var_and_type returns a new type: VT_ARRAYMEMBER if the
string passed is of the form var[index]
- make sure parameter_brace_substring frees the memory allocated
by get_var_and_type if verify_substring_values returns 0
hashlib.c, hashlib.h
- new function, dispose_hash_table (table), which frees the
table's bucket array and the table itself
alias.c
- call dispose_hash_table from delete_all_aliases instead of just
freeing the table
pathexp.c
- make sure to free `newnames' (but *not* its contents) before
returning from ignore_globbed_names
builtins/exec.def
- make sure the argv created to pass to shell_execve is freed if
the execve fails and we're not exiting on failed execs
expr.c
- broke evalexp into two functions: evalexp, which sets up the
jmp_buf that errors jump to, and subexpr, which does the
evaluation and pushing and popping of contexts
- readtok now calls subexpr to evaluate subexpressions in
parentheses
- evalexp now takes an additional paramter, a pointer to an int.
If the expression contains errors, the location to which this
points gets 0, otherwise it gets 1 to show that the value
returned may be used. This plugs up memory leaks that were
the result of evalexp() longjmping back to top_level
- fixed a memory leak: expr_stack[0] was not being freed
externs.h
- changed extern declaration for evalexp
variables.c, subst.c, builtins/let.def
- changed calls to evalexp appropriately. They either cause a
longjmp (top_level, DISCARD) (which is what the old stuff in
expr.c did) or are handled by returning an appropriate error
value (e.g., &expand_word_error in subst.c)
4/16
----
shell.c
- make sure to free dollar_vars[0] before assigning it the first
argument following `-c command'
variables.c
- if unsetting a local variable with a previous context, make sure
to free the hash table element used to store the local variable
lib/readline/terminal.c
- rearrange the includes so <sys/ioctl.h> is included before rltty.h,
as it is in rltty.c

flags.c
- new function: reset_shell_flags, which resets all of the flags
back to their initial values
flags.h
- extern declaration for reset_shell_flags
builtins/set.def
- new function: reset_shell_options, which resets all of the -o
options that are not also shell flags back to their initial values
builtins/shopt.def
- new function: reset_shopt_options, which resets all of the shopt
options that are not also shell flags or -o options back to their
initial values
builtins/common.h
- extern declarations for reset_shell_options and reset_shopt_options
execute_cmd.c
- broke the code that reinitializes things when an executable script
without a leading `#!' is found out into a new function:
initialize_subshell
- initialize_subshell now calls the reset_* functions that reset the
shell flags and options
general.c, general.h
- move_to_high_fd now takes a third argument: the highest fd at which
to start looking. If that's less than 20, the maximum number of
open files as returned by getdtablesize() is used (which is what
it did before this)
jobs.c, shell.c, subst.c
- changed calls to move_to_high_fd appropriately
[bash-2.01-beta1 frozen]

general.c
- itos now uses a local char buffer to do its conversion, but still
returns newly-allocated memory

with exported function definitions
4/22

builtins/ulimit.def
- translate RLIM_INFINITY to limit.rlim_max if the current limit is
less than or equal to the hard limit, not just strictly less than
(the change of 3/28 was too drastic)
4/23
----
oslib.c
- fixed definition of to_lower on machines without strcasecmp
trap.c
- don't free the trap command in change_signal if the SIG_INPROGRESS
is set in the signal's flags -- it will cause memory to be freed
twice if a trap command resets the signal handler more than once,
and _run_trap_internal keeps a pointer to the trap command so it
can free it, so there will be no leaks
4/24
----
aclocal.m4,configure.in
- removed BASH_CC_WORKS, since AC_PROG_CC now has the functionality
shell.c, externs.h
- get_current_user_info is now a void function
bashline.c
- alias_expand_line_internal was removed
- new function, alias_expand_line, performs alias expansion on
rl_line_buffer and either replaces rl_line_buffer or signals
an error
- new bindable commands: alias-expand-line and
history-and-alias-expand-line, available if ALIAS is defined
4/25

Makefile.in, lib/malloc/malloc.c
- changed the define that turns on malloc range checking from
`rcheck' to `RCHECK'
lib/readline/isearch.c
- fixed a couple of places where rl_search_history would try to
free a NULL pointer
4/29
----
unwind_prot.c
- fixed a problem with saving a variable that is a null pointer
in unwind_protect_var. It happens only on machines where the
size of a pointer is not the size of an int. The old FASTCOPY
code would copy the eight bytes at memory location zero, which
did not necessarily make a null pointer
4/30
----
shell.c
- run_startup_files should turn off job control, since the startup
files should be run without job control enabled -- this makes
SIGINT interrupt startup file execution again
- if we get a SIGINT or other longjmp to top_level while executing
the startup files, re-enable job control for interactive shells
before setting locally_skip_execution
5/2
---
lib/readline/nls.c
- if we have setlocale(3), don't bother with checking the
environment variables for valid values; just use setlocale()
to set the locale categories from the environment variables
directly and go into eight-bit mode if the current locale is
not C or POSIX
5/5
---
sig.c
- make sure that the handler for SIGPROF is not changed if it has
been set to something other than SIG_IGN or SIG_DFL -- this makes
profiling work after the terminating signals have been initialized
bashline.c
- if a filename containing `!' is completed, and the user has started
the string with a `"', change the completion style to backslash-
quoting, since there's no way to use `!' with double quotes (this
requires more changes to readline to really work right)
5/6
---
lib/readline/complete.c
- changes to make_quoted_replacement, insert_all_matches, and
insert_match and their callers to allow the application-specific
filename quoting function to change the quote character (e.g., for
bash to change a filename containing a `!' and started with a
double quote by the user into a filename with the `!' quoted by
a backslas and no double quote)

a core dump printing the error message when there is no current job

builtins/evalstring.c
- the third argument to parse_and_execute() is now a flags word.
The caller can control the value of `interactive' and whether
or not history is disabled while parse_and_execute() runs

- new #defines for the flag values for parse_and_execute()
{bashline,jobs,shell,subst,trap,variables}.c, parse.y, builtins/evalfile.c,
builtins/{eval,fc}.def
- changed calls to parse_and_execute appropriately
builtins/evalfile.c
- if _evalfile() is passed FEVAL_HISTORY as part of the flags arg,
don't pass SEVAL_NOHIST to parse_and_execute
- new function: fc_execute_file, which sets FEVAL_HISTORY in the
flags argument to _evalfile()
bashline.c
- call bash_add_history instead of add_history from
vi_edit_and_execute_command so the bash state variables get
updated properly. This keeps the `v' command from operating
on an empty command when the history list is stifled
bashhist.c
- bash_add_history is now global
bashhist.h
- extern declaration for bash_add_history
builtins/fc.def
- call fc_execute_file instead of maybe_execute_file in the
edit-and-re-execute case (fc -e ...)
- don't manually insert the commands from the file created by `fc -e'
into the history list, just set remember_on_history and let
fc_execute_file take care of telling parse_and_execute to do the
right thing. This makes compound commands and the `cmdhist'
and `lithist' settings work better. This supersedes the fix of
1/27. This was reported again by rchen@fractal.eng.yale.edu.
parse.y

call savestring() on it, and free it if the data is stale (in
search_for_command()). Another memory leak fixed courtesy of
a.pfaller@pop.gun.de
builtins/type.def
- free the value returned by find_hashed_filename
[bash-2.01-release frozen]

doc/Makefile.in
- don't create ${man3dir}, since we're not installing the readline
manual page
lib/readline/readline.h
- rl_dispatching should be declared `extern'
[in bash-2.01.1]
6/10
----
lib/malloc/Makefile.in
- make sure ${ALLOCA_SOURCE} is preceded by ${srcdir} so that things
work when building in a directory other than the source directory
[in bash-2.01.1]

lib/readline/examples/rltest.c
- don't free the value returned by history_list()
lib/readline/histfile.c
- open the history file for writing with mode 0600 for better
security

execute_cmd.c
- select_query now uses legal_number to decide whether the user's
selection is a valid number, and just executes the loop again if
invalid input is entered
[in bash-2.01.1]

builtins/evalstring.c
- fix to parse_and_execute so `bash -c 'time [-p] zzz'' works right
[in bash-2.01.1]
execute_cmd.c
- fix to execute_command_internal so that `bash -c time [-p] (zzz)''
works right
[in bash-2.01.1]
- print_formatted_time should pass a long as the fourth parameter
to mkfmt
[in bash-2.01.1]
externs.h, shell.c
- `exit_shell' is now a void function
hashlib.c
- print_table_stats is now a void function
mailcheck.c
- made add_mail_file check for the filename in the mail file list
using the expanded filename, since that is what it puts into
the list
[in bash-2.01.1]
variables.c
- for the time being, PWD will be auto-exported, since some systems
seem to expect it
doc/bashref.texi, lib/readline/doc/{hist,rlman}.texinfo
- added necessary `dircategory' and `direntry' commands to make
`install-info' work correctly
Makefile.in
- move $(LDFLAGS) after $(BUILTINS_LDFLAGS) and $(LIBRARY_LDFLAGS) on
the line that links bash
doc/texinfo.tex
- upgraded to version 2.185 from the texinfo-3.9 distribution
lib/tilde/tilde.c
- fixed a bug in tilde_expand so that enough space is allocated for
the string and terminating null byte if a `~' does not appear.
This was masked before by the bash malloc()
[in bash-2.01.1]

aclocal.m4
- new test, BASH_TYPE_INT32_T, to check which builtin C type is
32 bits wide
- new test, BASH_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T, to check which builtin C type is
appropriate for pointer arithmetic
configure.in
- check sizes of int and long, and for the existence of an int32_t
basic system type. Call BASH_TYPE_INT32_T if int32_t is not
defined anywhere in the system header files
- check size of (char *), and for the existence of a ptrdiff_t
basic system type. Call BASH_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T if ptrdiff_t is not
defined anywhere in the system header files
- added a check for <stddef.h>
config.h.in
- add lines for SIZEOF_INT, SIZEOF_LONG, SIZEOF_CHAR_P, int32_t,
u_int32_t, and ptrdiff_t
- added line for HAVE_STDDEF_H
lib/malloc/malloc.c
- new version, with many changes and much better memory usage; old
(bash-2.01) version is lib/malloc/omalloc.c
lib/malloc/gmalloc.c
- new version, with a number of changes and range checking included
by default; old (bash-2.01) version is lib/malloc/ogmalloc.c
execute_cmd.c
- applied patch from 5/27 to make execute_simple_command fork early
if it's part of a pipeline. This keeps assignment statements or
other commands that don't require a builtin, function, or disk
command to be executed from modifying the shell's environment
tests/exec?.sub
- renamed from tests/execscript.sub? because those filenames are
too long for System V 14-char filename systems
tests/source?.sub
- renamed from tests/source.sub? because those filenames are bad
for DOS/Windows
tests/getopts?.sub
- renamed from tests/getopts.sub? because those filenames are bad

too long for System V 14-char filename systems
lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- new version with full POSIX.2 BRE matching (character classes,
collating symbols, equivalence classes), full support for
strcoll(3), and case-insensitive pattern matching
lib/glob/fnmatch.h
- new version, with necessary symbols for the new fnmatch.c
tests/posixpat.{tests,right}, tests/run-posixpat
- test suite for the POSIX.2 BRE pattern matching code
variables.c
- make sure that array assignment using the compound syntax empties
the array before doing the assignment
[in bash-2.01.1]
trap.c
- new function, trap_to_sighandler(sig), which returns the correct
trap handler for SIG depending on the information in sigmodes[sig]
[in bash-2.01.1]
sig.h
- extern declarations for trap_handler and trap_to_sighandler
[in bash-2.01.1]
jobs.c
- if we get an interrupt while waiting for a command to complete,
and there was a trap set on SIGINT that resets the handler to
SIG_DFL, the value that waitchld uses for old_trap_handler will
be wrong (it will be trap_handler, but trap_handler no longer
knows anything about SIGINT). If old_signal_handler is trap_handler,
but signal_is_trapped(SIGINT) returns 0, we need to call
trap_to_sighandler to decide what to do

builtins/type.def
- removed mention of `-type', `-path', and `-all' options from the
long help description
error.c, error.h
- new function: internal_warning, for warning messages
variables.c
- changed a call to internal_error to use internal_warning
- modified change of 7/3 so that arrays are not emptied until
just before the shell is about to assign the new values, so
the old value can be used to generate the rhs of the assignment,
if necessary. This is how `normal' shell variables work
[in bash-2.01.1]
jobs.c, jobs.h
- delete_job now takes a second int argument and prints a warning
message when deleting a stopped job if the second argument is
non-zero
jobs.c, builtins/jobs.def
- changed all calls to delete_job to provide a proper second arg
lib/readline/bind.c
- broke rl_read_init_file into an `upper' and `lower' half in
preparation for adding file inclusion capability to inputrc
parsing
- handle_parser_directive now displays an error message if an
unknown directive is encountered
- parser_endif now prints an error message if an $endif without
a matching $if is found
- added `$include' parser directive to read bindings and commands
from another file at that point
lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo, doc/{bash.{1,html},readline.3}
- documented new readline `$include' parser directive
shell.c, parse.y
- added a new invocation option, --dump-po-strings, and code to
make it dump translatable strings ($"...") in GNU gettext
`po' format
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new `--dump-po-strings' invocation option
lib/readline/{{kill,funmap}.c,readline.h}
- added `rl_paste_from_clipboard()', bound to `paste-from-clipboard'
for CYGWIN32 users
lib/readline/kill.c
- incorporated bfox's patches for `iterative' yank-last-arg handling.
This means that one can keep pressing M-. and move backwards in
the history, yanking the last argument of successive history lines
lib/readline/rlwinsize.h
- new file, encapsulates various locations of the definition for
`struct winsize'
aclocal.m4
- augmented BASH_STRUCT_WINSIZE to look in termios.h as well as
sys/ioctl.h for definition of `struct winsize'
lib/readline/rltty.h
- include "rlwinsize.h" after including tty-driver-specific header
file

support/config.guess
- add better support for SunOS on M68K (old Sun3 machines)
parse.y
- check for compound array assignment in read_token_word only if
there are characters before the `=' (which would make it a legal
assignment statement). This fixes the problem with defining a
function named `=' with `=() { echo foo; }'
[in bash-2.01.1]
jobs.c, jobs.h
- nohup_all_jobs and delete_all_jobs now take a parameter which
says whether or not to restrict their operation to only running
jobs
jobs.c

function declarations from execute_cmd.h
Makefile.in, builtins/Makefile.in
- updated dependencies to account for new findcmd.[ch]
- updated dependencies to account for new redir.[ch]
redir.c, redir.h

aclocal.m4
- extended BASH_CHECK_GETPW_FUNCS so that it checks that getpwuid
and getpwnam can also be declared, as well as getpwent
[in bash-2.01.1]
- in BASH_FUNC_PRINTF, cast printf to type `_bashfunc' before trying
to assign it to `pf' to avoid any prototype problems in the

any of the bash-specific include files, but after <unistd.h>
[in bash-2.01.1]
builtins/Makefile.in
- PROFILE_FLAGS is now substituted into the Makefile by configure
configure.in
- new options, --enable-profiling and --enable-static-link, to turn
on profiling with gprof and link bash statically (if using gcc)
for use as a root shell. The former implies the latter. If
we're linking statically, dynamic loading of new builtins is not
available
doc/bashref.texi
- documented new --enable-profiling and --enable-static-link
options in installation section; regenerated INSTALL
lib/glob/glob.[ch]
- new global variable, glob_ignore_case, turns on case-insensitive
filename matching in fnmatch() using the FNM_CASEFOLD flag
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new shopt `nocaseglob' option

- removed `outchar' function; use _rl_output_character_function in
its place
support/config.guess
- changes to recognize HP_ARCH of `hppa2.0'
test.c

aclocal.m4
- prefer /var/spool/mail to /usr/spool/mail in BASH_DEFAULT_MAIL_DIR
[in bash-2.01.1]
lib/readline/{complete,bind}.c
- new readline variable, print-completions-horizontally, which causes
matches to be printed across the screen (like `ls -x') rather than
up-and-down (like `ls')
- new readline variable, completion-ignore-case, which causes filename
completion and matching to be performed case-insensitively
doc/{bash.{1,html},readline.3}, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
- documented new print-completions-horizontally variable
- documented new completion-ignore-case variable
_distribution, Makefile.in
- bumped the version number up to 2.02-alpha1
bracecomp.c
- fixes so that the braces are not quoted by the filename quoting
function when complete-into-braces is executed with M-{. The
brace completion functions do filename quoting themselves
[in bash-2.01.1]
pathexp.c
- changed quote_string_for_globbing so that it takes a flags word
as its second argument
pathexp.h
- defines for flags passed to quote_string_for_globbing
subst.c,execute_cmd.c
- changed calls to quote_string_for_globbing to pass the correct
flag arguments
expr.c
- added a `**' binary operator to do exponentiation (2**16 == 65536).
precedence is lower than arithmetic operators, higher than unary
operators (2**16-1 == 65535)
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new `**' arithmetic binary operator
7/24
----
shell.c
- added new (currently undocumented) `--wordexp' option to do the
job required by POSIX.2 wordexp(). If -n is supplied along with
--wordexp, command substitution is disallowed and the shell
exits with a status of 125 if one is attempted. If there is an
expansion error, the shell exits with a status of 127. If there
is a shell parsing error, the shell exits with a status of 126.
Otherwise, the exit status is 0. The current output is
number of words\n
number of bytes\n
expanded words, one per line, separated by newlines
This will have to be changed when an interface to glibc is coded

hashcmd.h
- reduced the default size of the filename hash table from 631
to 107
sig.c
- don't call initialize_siglist if HAVE_UNDER_SYS_SIGLIST is defined
[in bash-2.01.1]
siglist.c
- don't compile this file if HAVE_UNDER_SYS_SIGLIST is defined
[in bash-2.01.1]
variables.c
- fix to make $RANDOM work better in subshells
[in bash-2.01.1]
aclocal.m4

<signal.h> and <unistd.h>, defines UNDER_SYS_SIGLIST_DECLARED if
found
[in bash-2.01.1]
- change BASH_UNDER_SYS_SIGLIST to require BASH_DECL_UNDER_SYS_SIGLIST,
like BASH_SYS_SIGLIST requires AC_DECL_SYS_SIGLIST

config.h.in
- add a line for UNDER_SYS_SIGLIST_DECLARED
[in bash-2.01.1]

command.h
- new command type, ARITH_COM, used to create and execute a ((...))
command without translating it into let "..."
parse.y
- changes to the grammar and lexer so that ((...)) is parsed as a
command of type ARITH_CMD. An ARITH_CMD is a WORD_LIST, for
future expansion, even though only the first word is used
make_cmd.c, make_cmd.h
- definition and declaration of a function to build an arithmetic
command
dispose_cmd.c
- added code to dispose of arithmetic commands
print_cmd.c
- added code to print arithmetic commands, both `regularly' and
when they're being traced with `set -x'
externs.h
- extern declaration for xtrace_print_arith_cmd
copy_cmd.c
- added code to copy arithmetic commands
execute_cmd.c
- added code to directly execute arithmetic commands -- they are
a shell_control_structure, so just about everything like
redirections and piping is taken care of by the boilerplate code.
All that's needed is to expand the expression (which is within
double quotes -- added by parse.y:parse_arith_cmd()), print it
if tracing is enabled, call the expression evaluator, and return
an appropriate result

input.c
- new function, set_buffered_stream(fd, bp), sets the buffered stream
associated with FD to BP and returns the old buffered stream
input.h
- extern declaration for set_buffered_stream
parse.y
- call set_buffered_stream rather than manipulating the BUFFERS array
directly
shell.c
- unset_bash_input now takes an argument, CHECK_ZERO. This tells it
whether to check whether default_buffered_input is >= 0 or just > 0
externs.h
- changed extern declaration for unset_bash_input
execute_cmd.c, jobs.c, nojobs.c
- changed calls to unset_bash_input to add appropriate argument
input.h
- #undef B_* before defining them as flag values for b_flags. Some
systems, like SVR4, have a B_ERROR define in a file included by
jobs.c and nojobs.c, and it causes a warning
7/31
----
fnmatch.c
- rewrote most of fnmatch(), so that it now implements ksh-88 style
pattern matching (`[@+*?!](patlist)') if the FNM_EXTMATCH flag
is set
fnmatch.h
- added a define for FNM_EXTMATCH
8/4

lib/readline/display.c
- fixed _rl_redisplay_after_sigwinch () so that it really redisplays
only the portion after the final newline of a multi-line prompt

tests/{printf.{right,tests},run-printf}
- extensive test suite for the new `printf' builtin
builtins/Makefile.in
- change so that `builtext.h' is not recreated every time the source
file for a builtin is changed if the contents are the same. This
keeps many files from being recompiled
8/14

subst.c
- changed verify_substring_values so that it returns -1 for substring
range errors, 0 for expression errors, and 1 for success
[in bash-2.01.1]
- changed parameter_brace_substring to return an error if
verify_substring_values returns 0, and a null string if it returns
-1. This matches the ksh93 behavior
[in bash-2.01.1]
trap.c
- changed decode_signal so that it makes sure the first three
characters of a signal name are `SIG' before allowing the `SIG'
prefix to be omitted. This is so a signal spec of `T' does not
match `EXIT', for instance
[in bash-2.01.1]
builtins/trap.def
- make sure that showtrap() displays traps for signals with unknown
names using the signal number
[in bash-2.01.1]
shell.c
- make sure that `bash -r' doesn't turn on the restricted mode until
after the startup files are executed
[in bash-2.01.1]
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented printf builtin

builtins/printf.def
- added \xNNN escape to bexpand -- NNN are up to three hex digits.
This affects printf's `%b' conversion specifier
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new \xNNN escape sequence for echo, $'...', and printf
builtins/setattr.def

allocated block) to be passed to free when doing arithmetic
substitution. Bug report from stevet@myofb.org
[in bash-2.01.1]
8/19
----
subst.c
- considerable changes: moved the code that expands a single
$... parameter expansion into a separate function: param_expand()
This function returns a string, which may contain characters
quoted with CTLESC or CTLNUL without doing word splitting
- changed expand_word_internal to not remove the expansion of "$*"
if the number of positional parameters is > 0
- changed the '"' case of expand_word_internal to remove quoted
nulls from the resultant word if the expansion was not "$@", and
the word is not a quoted null string ([] == CTLNUL, [1] == '\0')
subst.c, variables.c
- moved the code that handles special variables from subst.c to
variables.c
8/20
----
subst.c
- rearranged the source a bit to group functions with similar
operation together
- fixed parameter_brace_expand so that it no longer allows
indirect expansion of `special' variables
- fixed parameter_brace_expand so taking the length of some of
the shell's special parameters works again
- moved all of the code that computes the length of a shell
parameter (the ${#xxx} expansion) into parameter_brace_expand_length.
Previously, the code that handled the lengths of the shell's
special parameters was in parameter_brace_expand_word
- valid indirect expansions are now only variable names or positional
parameters
8/21
----
subst.c
- fixed param_expand to raise an expansion error if $! is being
expanded and no asynchronous processes have been created
- an expression error in a $((...)) arithmetic expansion now causes
a non-interactive shell running in POSIX mode to exit
- relaxed change of 8/20 to allow indirect references to $#, $@, $*
builtins/bashref.texi
- documented new posix-mode exit on invalid expressions in $((...))
lib/readline/complete.c
- don't call rl_strpbrk unless rl_filename_quote_characters is not
NULL -- strpbrk requires non-NULL arguments
[in bash-2.01.1]
8/22
----
bashline.c
- don't make `history-expand-line' a bindable command unless
BANG_HISTORY is defined, and don't compile the code for that
command in unless BANG_HISTORY is defined
- make history_expand_line(), tcsh_magic_space(), alias_expand_line(),
and history_and_alias_expand_line() int-returning functions that
return 0 for success and non-zero on error. This allows
tcsh_magic_space() to just call history_expand_line() and insert
a space if that returns successfully
- `magic-space' is now a bindable readline command
doc/bash.{1,html}, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
- documented new `magic-space' bindable readline command

parse.y
- fixed decode_prompt_string so that values of $PWD longer than

than PATH_MAX don't cause buffer overruns (char tdir[PATH_MAX])
[in bash-2.01.1]
subst.c
- fix to expansion of $* so that the positional parameters are
separated by the first character of $IFS, even when the expansion
is not within double quotes, so the correct split is still
performed even when IFS does not contain a space. Works for
${*}, too
- fix to expansion of $@ so that the positional parameters are
separated by the first character of $IFS, even when the expansion
is not within double quotes, so the correct split is still
performed even when IFS does not contain a space. Works for
${@}, too
- new function, string_list_dollar_at(), which is to $@ as
string_list_dollar_star is to $*
- fixed expansion of $@ so that splitting is still done even if
IFS is unset or NULL, as POSIX.2 specifies (section 3.5.2)
- fixed expansion of $* so that it expands to multiple words if there
is more than one positional parameter, just like $@, even if
IFS is unset or NULL
- new function list_quote_escapes, quotes (with CTLESC) all
CTLESC and CTLNUL characters in each member of the list
tests/dollar-{at,star}.sh
- combined into dollar-at-star, changed run-dollars accordingly
8/26
----
Makefile.in
- make the `tests' target use $(SHELL) instead of hardcoding `sh'
8/29
----
subst.c
- expand_word_list_internal now takes a flags word as the second
argument, telling which expansions to perform on the WORD_LIST
- broke expand_word_list_internal into several functions: one
each to do brace expansion, glob expansion, and the `normal'
shell expansions
- new extern function: expand_words_shellexp() to perform the
`normal' shell expansions on a WORD_LIST
subst.h
- extern declaration for expand_words_shellexp
bashline.c
- fixed a problem with attempt_shell_completion where it attempted
to refer to rl_line_buffer[-1] (completion at the start of the
line, which means that ti == -1, which means that the test for
rl_line_buffer[ti] at line 715 was an array bounds error
[in bash-2.01.1]
eval.c
- new function, parse_string_to_word_list(), which takes a string
and runs it through the parser, returning the resultant word
list
externs.h
- new extern declaration for parse_string_to_word_list()
variables.c
- change assign_array_var_from_string to first split the string
between the parens on whitespace, then expand the resultant
list of words with all the shell expansions before doing the
assignment

redir.c, redir.h
- redirection_error is no longer a static function
builtins/evalstring.c
- changes to handle $( < filename ) (equivalent to $(cat filename))
as in ksh
lib/readline/bind.c
- added two new functions: rl_unbind_function_in_map(func, map),
which unbinds all keys that execute FUNC in MAP; and
rl_unbind_command_in_map(command, map), which unbinds all keys
bound to COMMAND in MAP
lib/readline/readline.h
- extern declarations for rl_unbind_{function,command}_in_map
lib/readline/doc/rltech.texi
- documented rl_unbind_{function,command}_in_map
builtins/bind.def
- added a new option, -u FUNCNAME, which unbinds all key sequences
bound to FUNCNAME in the specified (or current) keymap
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new $( < filename ) command substitution
- documented new bind -u FUNCNAME option
9/5
---
shell.c
- send SIGHUP to all jobs when an interactive login shell exits if
the variable `hup_on_exit' is non-zero
- modified run_startup_files so that if `NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS'
is #define'd (perhaps in config.h.top, though there is nothing there
for it), all login shells (interactive and non-interactive) run
/etc/profile and one of the per-user login shell startup files
builtins/shopt.def
- new shopt option `huponexit' to control the value of hup_on_exit
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new `huponexit' shell option
9/8
---
builtins/common.c
- changed contains_shell_metas to return 1 if a tilde appears at the
start of a string or after a `=' or `:'
- changed backslash_quote to quote a tilde if it appears at the start
of a string or after a `=' or `:'
lib/readline/complete.c
- moved rl_tilde_expand to util.c; it doesn't really have anything
to do with completion
- moved insert_text to readline.c, renamed it _rl_replace_text (since
that's really what it does), changed callers
- moved code that postprocesses the list of completion matches into
a new function: postprocess_matches
- new implementation of tcsh-like menu completion in a single new
function: rl_menu_complete
lib/readline/{funmap.c,readline.h}
- necessary declarations for binding rl_menu_complete to the
new `menu-complete' command
doc/{bash.{1,html},readline.3}, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
- documented new `menu-complete' bindable readline command
9/9
---
jobs.c
- delete_job should print a warning only if subshell_environment
is 0, so we don't print bogus warnings when shell scripts without
a leading #! are executed
9/10
----
builtins/read.def
- fixed the code so that the `read' is automatically restarted when
it returns -1 with errno == EINTR. SIGINT is handled by the
interrupt handler, since interrupt_immediately is set to 1, so
this handles things like SIGCHLD
[in bash-2.01.1]
9/11
----
test.c
- reorganized the code slightly to make it easier to add the ksh-like
[[...]] compound command
test.h
- new file, with extern declarations for functions available in test.c
externs.h

builtins/test.def
- include `test.h'

{command,make_cmd,dispose_cmd,externs,subst}.h
parse.y, subst.c
{make,dispose,copy,print,execute}_cmd.c

configure.in
- new enable option, --enable-cond-command, to compile in the [[...]]
command code
config.h.in
- new #define, COND_COMMAND, to compile in the [[...]] command code
tests/{run-cond,cond.{tests,right}}
- test suite for the new [[...]] command
{builtins,lib/{readline,glob,tilde}}/Makefile.in
- explicit dependencies for .o files on .c files for losing makes
like Solaris
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented the new `[[' compound command
- documented the test/[ builtin behavior based on the number of
arguments in the description of the builtin
- made a new section for conditional expressions that just lists
the available primaries -- the connectives and other operators
are listed in the description of the [[ command and the test/[
builtin
9/18
----
builtins/set.def
- minus_o_option_commands is now a global function so the shopt
code can use it
- minus_o_option_commands now takes an argument telling it which
options to print, just like list_minus_o_options
- new function, print_minus_o_option, which prints the value of
a `set -o' option either in the traditional format or in the
format used by `set +o'
- changed list_minus_o_opts and minus_o_option_commands to call
print_minus_o_option
builtins/shopt.def
- `shopt -p' now causes output to be printed in a format reusable
as input (the format is a series of shopt commands, like the
output of `set +o')
- fixed a bug that made `shopt -so' and `shopt -uo' not work
- fixed list_shopt_o_options so that `shopt -op' acts like `set +o'
- fixed list_shopt_o_options to that `shopt -op optname' prints the
value of optname in a reusable format
- fixed list_some_o_options so that `shopt -ops' and `shopt -opu'
work and display output in a reusable format
9/19
----
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- documented new `shopt -p' behavior
shell.c
- made `bash +o' display the same output as `set +o' and then
start an interactive shell (previously `bash -o' and `bash +o'
displayed the same thing)
builtins/common.h
- added prototypes to the extern function declarations
9/22
----
builtins/evalstring.c
- fixed the DISCARD case of the jump_to_top_level so that it
doesn't try to call dispose_command(command) after the
`pe_dispose' unwind frame gets run, since that disposes the
command
9/23
----
test.[ch]
- test_eaccess is now a global function so that globbing code can
use it
lib/glob/glob.c
- rewrote glob_vector to be slightly more efficient and to not
read the directory if the filename pattern does not contain
any globbing chars. This satisfies the POSIX requirement that
read permission is not required for a directory when the
pathname component does not contain a pattern character (bug
reported by jsm28@cam.ac.uk)
subst.c
- fixed parameter_brace_expand so that ${array[@]} and ${array[*]}
behave correctly when IFS is unset or set to something that does
not contain a space (they should result in separate words, just
like $@ and $*)
tests/{run-array2,array-at-star,array2.right}
- tests for the expansions of ${array[@]} and ${array[*]}, derived
from the tests in dollar-at-star
9/24
----
jobs.c
- fixed cleanup_dead_jobs so that it doesn't remove the job
containing last_asynchronous_pid from the job table. This
fixes the POSIX.2 `wait' requirement problem
9/25
----
parse.y
- added `\r' escape sequence to the prompt expansion code
lib/readline/chardefs.h
- added defines for ISOCTAL, OCTVALUE, isxdigit (if not defined),
and HEXVALUE
lib/readline/bind.c
- added `normal' echo/printf-like backslash escapes to the
key sequence translation code, with the addition that \d
expands to RUBOUT. This means that key sequence definitions
(before the `:') and macro values may contain these special
backslash-escape sequences
- now that we can translate octal escape sequences in key bindings,
change _rl_get_keyname so that it turns characters with values
128-159 inclusive into octal escape sequences (\200-\237), since
those characters are not ASCII or ISO Latin 1
doc/{bash.{1,html},readline.3}, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
- documented new backslash escapes for readline key sequence and
macro translation
builtins/pushd.def
- new function, get_dirstack_from_string(char *string), returns an
element from the directory stack or null, treating the argument
exactly as `dirs string' would, with the exception that if
the first character of `string' is not `+' or `-', a `+' is
assumed
builtins/common.h
- new extern declaration for get_dirstack_from_string
general.c
- added code to bash_special_tilde_expansions to get the expansion
using get_dirstack_from_string() if the first character of the
tilde-prefix is a digit or the first character is a `+' or `-'
and the second is a digit
tests/dstack.{tests,right}
- renamed from dirstack.{tests,right}
tests/dtack2.{tests,right}
- new tests for the directory stack tilde expansion code
tests/run-dirstack
- now runs both dstack and dstack2
10/3
----
trap.c
- reordered header file inclusion for irix 4
execute_cmd.c
- fixed select_query so that a reply that is not a number is treated
the same as a numeric reply that is out of range
lib/readline/util.c
- added a backwards-compatibility definition of _rl_savestring()
builtins/set.def
- initialize_shell_options now takes an argument saying whether or
not we should parse $SHELLOPTS from the environment. The shell
does not parse the value if it's restricted, running setuid, or
running in `privileged mode'
shell.c
- change call to initialize_shell_options to add the correct argument
builtins/common.h
- changed extern declaration for initialize_shell_options
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- added note that the shell ignores $SHELLOPTS in the environment at
startup if running in privileged mode
- added note that the restricted shell does not parse $SHELLOPTS from
the environment at startup

----
aclocal.m4
- change BASH_RLIMIT_TYPE so that it looks for rlim_t in
<sys/resource.h> as well as <sys/types.h>, for Solaris 2.6
- new macro, BASH_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT, to enable special compilation
options for large files on Solaris 2.6 (from eggert@twinsun.com)
mailcheck.c
- the `file_size' member of the FILEINFO struct should be of
type `off_t'
- the `size' variable in file_has_grown should be of type `off_t'
- the RESET_MAIL_FILE macro should initialize file_size to 0, not 0L
builtins/Makefile.in
- LDFLAGS and LOCAL_LDFLAGS are now set by configure
- `mkbuiltins' is now created from `mkbuiltins.o' instead of directly
from the source to the executable
builtins/evalfile.c
- fixed _evalfile so that it handles large files correctly on
systems where the st_size member of `struct stat' will not fit
into an `int'
builtins/mkbuiltins.c
- don't assume that st_size fits into an int
input.[ch]
- the `b_size' member of a struct BSTREAM is now of type `size_t'
- changed third argument to make_buffered_stream to size_t; changed
caller
- changed `size' variable in fd_to_buffered_stream to type `size_t'
general.h
- include <sys/resource.h> if HAVE_SYS_RESOURCE_H and RLIMTYPE are
both defined, for possible necessary definition of RLIMTYPE
(e.g., on Solaris 2.6)
{execute_cmd,jobs}.c, builtins/times.def
- don't include <sys/resource.h> explicitly if RLIMTYPE is defined,
since general.h will include it in that case
lib/readline/bind.c
- new function, char *_rl_read_file(filename, sizep), which reads
FILENAME into a malloced buffer, returning the buffer and the
size of the buffer in *SIZEP
lib/readline/histfile.c
- changed read_history_range and history_truncate_file to handle
large files
hashcmd.c
- find_hashed_filename should not add `./' to the front of a pathname
that already begins with `./'
10/8
----
support/config.sub
- recognize `hppa2.0' as a valid machine architecture
aclocal.m4
- changed BASH_CHECK_LIB_TERMCAP so that `gnutermcap' is not chosen
if `$prefer_curses' is set to something
bashhist.c
- don't use HISTCONTROL or HISTIGNORE to remove lines from the
second and subsequent lines of a multi-line command
(current_command_line_count > 1). Old code did this only when
command-oriented-history was enabled
doc/{bash.{1,html},bashref.texi}
- changed descriptions of HISTCONTROL and HISTIGNORE to state that
these variables are not applied to the second and subsequent
lines of a multi-line command
builtins/hash.def, {copy,dispose}_cmd.c
- include "bashtypes.h" -- cray machines need it because of their
oddball definition of `word'
configure.in
- changed check of ${host_cpu} to check for `*cray*' and `*Cray*'
when deciding whether to include the GNU malloc, since it
seems that ${host_cpu} gets set to `CrayYMP'
10/9
----
configure.in
- look for strtod and strtol in libc
- make lib/sh directory in build directory if not there
- create lib/sh/Makefile
config.h.in
- added HAVE_STRTOD and HAVE_STRTOL
Makefile.in
- changes for lib/sh/libsh.a (shell library)
builtins/printf.def
- took out the `#ifdef STRTOUL' code, since strtoul is in libsh.a,
and will be resolved from there if it's not in libc
variables.c
- call strtol() instead of string_to_long()
general.c, general.h
- removed string_to_long
- changed legal_number to use strtol so it correctly sets errno
to ERANGE on overflow
- moved bash_getcwd_errstr here from lib/sh/oslib.c
externs.h
- moved extern declarations for functions defined in libsh to a
separate section of the file, added extern declarations for
other functions in libsh
builtins/ulimit.def
- changed macro definition for string_to_rlimtype to call strtol
directly instead of string_to_long
lib/sh/clktck.c
- moved get_clock_tck to its own file, since it's compiled in
unconditionally
10/10
-----
lib/sh/getenv.c
- moved getenv() and __getenv() here from lib/sh/oslib.c
lib/sh/{setlinebuf,strerror,strcasecmp}.c
- moved {setlinebuf,strerror,strcasecmp}() from oslib.c to
individual files
lib/sh/Makefile.in, Makefile.in
- changes for new files in lib/sh
aclocal.m4
- new macro BASH_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS, which does what
AC_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS does, but using posix sigaction()
configure.in
- call BASH_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS if ac_cv_sys_restartable_syscalls
is `no'
10/13
-----
builtins/jobs.def
- catch out-of-range jobs better in disown_builtin
configure.in
- don't build with GNU malloc on cygwin32
trap.c
- change signal_name to handle the case where signal_names[sig] is
NULL, which can happen on cygwin32
execute_cmd.c
- changes to do_piping to make pipes text mode (O_TEXT) on cygwin32
cross-build
- new directory with cache files and other stuff for cross-compiling
bash (currently only for building for cygwin32 on a Unix machine)
cross-build/cygwin32.cache
- new file containing configuration variable assignments for
cygwin32 that would otherwise require a default case for AC_TRY_RUN
configure.in
- source ${srcdir}/cross-build/cygwin32.cache on CYGWIN32 systems
if we're cross-compiling on a unix machine
- set $CC_FOR_BUILD for cygwin32 cross-compiling environment
Makefile.in
- CC_FOR_BUILD is now a variable set by configure
builtins/mkbuiltins.c
- only check for read(2) returning <= 0 in extract_info() (error
and exit on < 0, warning and return on == 0)
builtins/evalfile.c
- only check for read(2) returning <= 0 in _evalfile() (error and
and failure return on < 0, success on == 0 while short-circuting
rest of operation)
10/14
-----
vprint.c
- moved to lib/sh/vprint.c
lib/sh/Makefile.in
- added entries for vprint.[co] in the appropriate places
cross-build/win32sig.h
- a version of signames.h for cross-compiling for the CYGWIN32
environment on a Unix machine (from noer@cygnus.com)
aclocal.m4
- made all cases of AC_TRY_RUN and AC_TRY_COMPILE have reasonable
default cases for cross-compiling, and tell the user what they are
Makefile.in
- removed vprint.c from shell sources and vprint.o from shell
objects
- added a level of indirection for signames.h -- the variable
SIGNAMES_H is set by configure to either `lsignames.h' or
a file for a cross-compilation environment (currently only
the cygwin32 stuff is supported). Then that file is copied
to `signames.h'. `lsignames.h' is created by `mksignames' as
was previously used to create signames.h directly
configure.in
- set SIGNAMES_H to either `$(srcdir)/cross-build/win32sig.h' or
`lsignames.h' as appropriate, substitute into Makefile
10/15
-----
builtins/Makefile.in
- CC_FOR_BUILD is now set by configure and used to build mkbuiltins
and psize.aux
variables.h
- new variable attribute `att_tempvar', set if the SHELL_VAR * was
constructed on the fly from the temporary environment
variables.c
- find_name_in_env_array now sets the `att_tempvar' attribute on
the SHELL_VAR it creates
findcmd.c
- search_for_command now disposes the SHELL_VAR created by searching
the temporary environment for $PATH, if it is found there
- _find_user_command_internal also disposes of the SHELL_VAR if it
has the `att_tempvar' attribute set
builtins/setattr.c
- show_name_attributes looks in the temporary environemnt, so it needs
to dispose the SHELL_VAR if it has the att_tempvar attribute set
subst.c
- parameter_brace_expand_word now disposes of the SHELL_VAR returned
by find_variable if it has the att_tempvar attribute set
- ditto for param_expand and word_split
builtins/kill.def
- disallow null pid arguments instead of treating them as 0
- display a usage message and return failure if no pid or job
arguments are supplied
10/16
-----
builtins/declare.def
- make `var=value declare -x var' behave the same as
`var=value export var' and `var=value declare -r var' behave the
same as `var=value readonly var', now that we have the `tempvar'
attribute
10/22
-----
jobs.c
- non-interactive shells shouldn't report jobs killed by a SIGINT,
even if the standard output is to a terminal
- pretty_print_job should add a CR at the end of its output if the
shell is interactive and asynchronous notification is being
performed. This fixes the problem with extra CRs in the output
of $(jobs)
general.c
- changed canonicalize_pathname to change `//' into `/', but leave
other pathnames starting with two consecutive slashes alone
10/27
-----
lib/readline/histexpand.c
- fixed history_expand so that the appearance of the history
comment character at the beginning of a word inhibits history
expansion for the rest of the line
10/29
-----
jobs.c,variables.c
- moved set_pipestatus_array to variables.c
variables.c
- new function, set_pipestatus_from_exit(int), which sets the
PIPESTATUS variable from a command's exit status
variables.h
- extern declarations for set_pipestatus_from_exit and
set_pipestatus_array
execute_cmd.c
- fixed execute_simple_command to call set_pipestatus_from_exit
if a foreground builtin or function, or a foreground null
command is executed
10/31

shell.c
- fixed run_startup_files to detect being run by sshd, and treat
that case as equivalent to being run by rshd

pathexp.c
- fix to shell_glob_filename in the code that uses a POSIX glob
library
11/5
----
jobs.c
- fix cleanup_dead_jobs to hang onto the job corresponding to
last_asynchronous_pid only if the shell is not interactive
(this still has the problem that until a new async process
is started, the job will stay in the jobs table)
configure.in,aclocal.m4
- added a new macro, BASH_TYPE_U_INT32_T, to check for u_int32_t
separately from int32_t, since there are systems (HP-UX 10.20)
that have a define for the latter but not the former
11/6
----
jobs.c
- cleanup_dead_jobs no longer checks whether the job it is deleting
corresponds to last_asynchronous_pid
- notify_of_job_status and mark_dead_jobs_as_notified now will not
mark the job corresponding to last_asynchronous_pid as notified
if the shell is not interactive
- wait_for_single_pid, if told to wait for last_asynchronous_pid,
or the job of which it is a member, will take care of marking
the job as notified after calling wait_for and collecting the
status. This means that two successive `wait' calls for $! will
succeed the first time and fail the second, as POSIX.2 specifies
(take this code out if it causes problems)
11/7
----
jobs.c
- wait_for_job, if told to wait for the job corresponding to the
last async pid, will mark the job as notified after waiting for
it and collecting the status
general.h
- fixed MEMBER macro to avoid reading past end of S (it used to
test s[1] before s[0], which is an error if s == "")
subst.c
- expand_word_internal should free ISTRING before returning if
param_expand returns an error
- parameter_brace_expand_word should free the memory it allocates
and passes to param_expand
execute_cmd.c
- execute_arith_command should call dispose_words on the list
returned by expand_words
parse.y
- after calling parse_arith_command, read_token needs to free the
string value that parse_arith_command fills in, since make_word
makes a copy of the string it's passed
11/10
-----
subst.c
- cond_expand_word needs to free the value returned by string_list
after it is run through quote_string_for_globbing
parse.y
- make sure cond_term frees yylval.word if it is just a `!' and
it's parsed as a term negation operator
variables.c
- assign_array_var_from_string needs to free the word list returned
by parse_string_to_word_list after calling expand_words_shellexp
on it
execute_cmd.c
- changed execute_simple_command to avoid saving the_printed_command
into command_line until just before it's needed. This should save
time and prevent memory leaks on errors, but it must be watched
closely to make sure that the_printed_command doesn't change out
from under execute_simple_command before we copy it
11/12
-----
builtins/alias.def
- alias and unalias should print error messages when passed an
argument that is not an alias for printing or deletion,
respectively, even if the shell is not interactive
builtins/exit.def
- `logout' will no longer exit a non-login non-interactive shell
11/17
-----
lib/readline/nls.c
- add `koi8-r' as a legal LANG value
builtins/alias.def
- if `alias' or `alias -p' is executed when no aliases are defined,
the return status should be 0, according to POSIX.2
11/18
-----
subst.c
- changed a couple of calls to make_word_list (make_word(z), ...)
to add_string_to_list (z, ...)
execute_cmd.c
- execute_cond_command now sets this_command_name to `[['
11/21

variables.c
- all_visible_{function,variable}s and the functions they call

aclocal.m4
- remove some leading whitespace before preprocessor statements in
BASH_KERNEL_RLIMIT_CHECK
general.[ch]
- fix declarations for group_member so the extern declaration in
general.h agrees with the definition in general.c (fix from
Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>)
builtins/cd.def
- print the new working directory if the shell is interactive
and `cd -' succeeds
- don't print the new working directory if it's found in $CDPATH
if the shell is not interactive
11/25

builtins/set.def
- `unset' should check that a function it's trying to unset is a
legal identifier only when in POSIX mode
redir.c
- changed here_document_to_fd to try and make sure the filename
used for the here document is `more unique', since the old
version would fail if two here documents were created in less
than a second
12/4
----
builtins/cd.def
- POSIX.2 says that if CDPATH is used to find the new directory,
and it's not relative to the current directory, the new directory
name should be displayed on stdout even if the shell is not
interactive
12/5
----
parse.y
- changes so that `time' is recognized as a reserved word only at
the beginning of a pipeline (the last read token is one of 0,
`;', `\n', `&&', `||', or `&'):
o add clause to special_case_tokens that does the check
and returns TIME if the conditions are met
o take check for `TIME' out of CHECK_FOR_RESERVED_WORD, but
leave it in the word_token_alist so that `type' still
reports it as a `keyword'
o new function, time_command_acceptable(), encapsulates the
necessary conditions for `time' to be returned as a
reserved word

lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- fix define for isgraph so that it does not return success for space
- fix strcompare() so that the call to strcoll is surrounded by
#ifdef HAVE_STRCOLL
1/7

lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- the `test' argument to brackmatch() should be of type `unsigned char'
1/11

execute_cmd.c
- make sure execute_arith_command sets this_command_name to `(('
1/29
----
parse.y
- make sure the code for pushing and popping strings is compiled in
if either ALIAS or DPAREN_ARITHMETIC is defined, because the ((
code uses push_string in the case of a nested subshell
- fix cond_skip_newlines so it resets the prompt to $PS2 while
parsing an unfinished conditional command
dispose_cmd.c, copy_cmd.c, builtins/hash.def
- fixes to not use `word' as a variable name or the name of a
function parameter to get around stuff in the Cray Unix include
files
builtins/printf.def
- return failure immediately if an illegal format character is
encountered
redir.c
- make the code that creates here-documents behave better if the
file it's trying to create already exists for some reason
lib/readline/complete.c
- changed print_filename to return the number of characters it
outputs; changed callers to use that value. This makes columns
line up when printing completion listings with filenames
containing control characters
doc/bash.{1,html}
- fixed a typo in the quote removal section
1/30
----
parse.y
- free_string_list() needs to check that t->expander is not NULL
before trying to dereference it
- reset_parser() doesn't need to set pushed_string_list to NULL
after calling free_string_list(), since free_string_list does it
configure.in,cross-build/cygwin32.cache
- fixes from Geoff Noer for better cygwin32 cross-compilation
tests/printf.{tests,right}
- removed test for integer overflow, since error messages differ
across systems
pathexp.c
- fixed a problem with unquoted_glob_pattern_p that made things
like `x+*' not expand correctly
lib/glob/glob.c
- fixed a problem with glob_pattern_p that made things like `x+*'
not expand correctly
builtins/cd.def
- if `cd -P' is executed, or `set -o physical' has been executed,
the value of $PWD after a successful cd will not contain any
symlinks, regardless of whether or not the shell is in posix mode
2/3

lib/readline/shell.c
- include <string.h> or <strings.h> as appropriate
2/4

builtins/common.c
- take out the code in backslash_quote() that looks for tildes to
quote, for the time being
- if getcwd() fails, get_working_directory now prints the error
message corresponding to errno in addition to the rest of the
information -- TENTATIVE CHANGE
lib/sh/getcwd.c
- fix from Paul Smith to make getcwd() behave better in the presence
of lstat(2) failures
stringlib.c
- when copying the replacement string into the output string being
constructed, strsub() needs to make sure enough space for the
replacement string is allocated, not the length of the pattern
(use REPLEN, not PATLEN)
mailcheck.c
- make sure make_default_mailpath() has a valid current_user struct
before trying to construct the default mailpath
2/5
---
execute_cmd.c
- execute_builtin needs to call run_unwind_frame if the builtin is
`source' or `eval' and we're not in a subshell rather than just
calling dispose_builtin_env, because not all invocations copy
the temporary_env to builtin_env, and nested calls to `.' require
that the temporary env given to the first persist until that first
call to `.' finishes
parse.y
- fix to history_delimiting_chars so that function definitions like
function xyz
{
echo a
}
are saved to the history correctly when command_oriented_history
is enabled, but literal_history is not
bashhist.c
- when calling internal_error from pre_process_line, use "%s" as
the format with history_value as the argument to avoid the
problem with the failed history event containing printf escape
sequences
2/13
----
shell.c
- if shell_initialized is non-zero, don't line-buffer stderr and
stdout in shell_initialize on SunOS5 -- see if this fixes the
crashing problems for scripts without a leading `#! /bin/sh'
2/17
----
bashline.c
- added diffs to _ignore_completion_names from Andreas Schwab to
complete names that would otherwise be ignored with FIGNORE if
they are the only possible completions. Define NO_FORCE_FIGNORE
if you want this; it is not defined by default
2/19
----
support/bashbug.sh
- changed the bug-bash address to bug-bash@gnu.org
examples/loadables/Makefile.in
- converted from `Makefile' with some boilerplate configure variables
to find the source and build directories -- still requires some
hand-editing to get the right CFLAGS and LDFLAGS for shared object
creation
Makefile.in
- create examples/loadables/Makefile with `make makefiles'
configure.in
- create examples/loadables directory so `make makefiles' can write a
makefile there
general.c
- make sure initialize_groups_array always sets things up so that
${GROUPS[0]} is the user's primary group (current_user.gid)
2/20

lib/readline/parens.c
- change the time delay when showing matching parens from 1.5 sec to
0.5 sec

(though fileno(stdin) should always be 0)
support/config.guess
- updates from master FSF copy
2/24
----
support/man2html.c
- modified version of man2html to convert bash.1 into bash.html
support/Makefile.in
- simple Makefile to create man2html
configure.in
- make sure support/Makefile is created
Makefile.in
- make sure support/Makefile is created and cleaned
doc/Makefile.in
- changes to suffix rules to say how to make .html from .1
- `bash.html' is now a makefile target, created by man2html from
bash.1 rather than being hand-modified
lib/sh/itos.c, general.c
- new file, itos() from general.c. This is here because the
implementation of strerror in lib/sh/strerror.c uses itos()
Makefile.in, lib/sh/Makefile.in
- changes to add itos.c in libsh.a
externs.h, general.h
- moved extern declaration of itos() from general.h to externs.h
aclocal.m4
- changes to BASH_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT for the LFS64_* variables in
Solaris 2.6
Makefile.in
- make sure configure sets CPPFLAGS in this file
2/27
----
builtins/command.def
- make sure get_standard_path returns the value of
STANDARD_UTILS_PATH if _CS_PATH is defined, but confstr(3)
returns 0, indicating that _CS_PATH does not have a defined
value
bashhist.c
- fixed bash_history_inhibit_expansion() so that extended globbing
expressions like *.!(c) are not history expanded if extended_glob
is non-zero (shopt -s extglob has been executed)
3/2

Makefile.in
- changed release status to `beta1'

lib/readline/vi_mode.c
- make sure _rl_vi_save_insert() gets a non-null UNDO_LIST pointer
before trying to do anything with it
jobs.c
- add a call to internal_warning from wait_for_job if the job is
stopped
- changed notify_of_job_status to not report pipelines exiting due to
SIGPIPE in non-interactive shells if the shell is compiled with
-DDONT_REPORT_SIGPIPE
builtins/psize.sh
- some fixes to try to avoid /tmp file races and surreptitious
substitutions
version.c
- changed the extended version info to show 1998 as the copyright year
parse.y
- fixes from Andreas Schwab <schwab@LS5.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>
for compilation errors when the shell is configured --disable-alias
but with dparen arithmetic enabled
eval.c
- fixes from Andreas Schwab <schwab@LS5.informatik.uni-dortmund.de> to
make sure the input stream is popped correctly when performing an
array assignment in the command argument to `bash -c', e.g.,
`bash -c 'A=()''
builtins/kill.def
- make `kill' with no arguments print a usage message and return a
failure status
alias.c
- fix so that rd_token doesn't dump core when trying to do alias
expansion on a line containing an unclosed single quote (fix from
Vasco Pedro <vp@di.fct.unl.pt>)
builtins/cd.def
- fix so that using a non-empty directory from CDPATH to construct
the name of the directory to change to results in an absolute
pathname of the new current working directory being displayed,
as POSIX.2 specifies
support/bashbug.sh
- a couple of small fixes to minimize /tmp file races -- the script
is still raceable, the window is just smaller
3/24
----
variables.c
- make sure assign_in_env passes a malloc'd string to
expand_string_unsplit, because some of the error code assumes that
it is malloc'd and frees it (bug reported by Marko.Makela@HUT.FI)
3/25
----
doc/bashref.texi
- changed the email addresses to use the @email texinfo tag
trap.c
- call reset_parser from the exit trap code before calling
parse_and_execute, so reserved words are parsed correctly
subst.c
- make sure parameter_brace_patsub expands the pattern string as if
the expression were not in double quotes, even if the entire
expansion is enclosed in double quotes, so that quote removal
on embedded double quotes is performed correctly (bug report from
schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de)

history-and-alias-expand-line unless both ALIAS and BANG_HISTORY
are defined
[in bash-2.02.1]
4/22
----
make_cmd.c
- make sure that make_here_document allocates enough space for the
first line of the here document, by using the line length +2
(instead of 1000, which is what the old code did, and breaks if
the first line of the here document is enough longer than 1000
characters to cause other memory to be scribbled on)
[in bash-2.02.1]
builtins/cd.def
- when in posix mode, a value of "" for CDPATH should be treated the
same as the current directory, not result in an error
[in bash-2.02.1]
lib/malloc/malloc.c
- change the mh_align member of `union mhead' to be of type double
rather than a pointer, so that malloc will return (hopefully)
8-byte aligned memory

lib/readline/display.c
- fix for readline redisplay if the prompt string is longer than the
screen width and includes invisible characters
[in bash-2.02.1]
jobs.c
- make_child should not set the terminal's process group to
pipeline_pgrp if pipeline_pgrp == shell_pgrp (indicating that we
are forking a child for a command substitution)
[in bash-2.02.1]
subst.c
- in execute_simple_command, in the child forked if there is a pipe
or the command is asynchronous, set subshell_environment to
SUBSHELL_ASYNC only if the command is asynchronous, SUBSHELL_FORK
if there is a pipe in or out

support/texi2dvi
- upgraded to version 0.8 (from 0.5)

support/config.sub
- config.sub now recognizes all the permutations of the system name
that config.guess produces for alphas
[in bash-2.02.1]
aclocal.m4
- changed BASH_TYPE_INT32_T, BASH_TYPE_U_INT32_T, and
BASH_TYPE_PTRDIFF_T to avoid compiling a program; instead use
the values determined by the AC_CHECK_SIZEOF tests to determine
the default values to supply to AC_CHECK_TYPE
configure.in
- don't call AC_CHECK_TYPE({int32_t,u_int32_t,ptrdiff_t}) from
configure.in; use the updated BASH_TYPE macros instead
builtins/exec.def
- if shell_execve fails, set ARGS to null because the realloc() call
by shell_execve may have caused it to be reallocated and freed --
we don't want to free the memory twice
lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- fixes from ache@nagual.pp.ru to make fnmatch work for eight-bit
characters when `isupper' and `islower' are used -- they were
restricted to ASCII characters before, probably to work around
some ancient, broken C libraries in which is{low,upp}er are valid
only for ASCII characters and return bogus values otherwise
[in bash-2.02.1]

builtins/cd.def
- fixed a problem with the shell displaying the old working directory
instead of the new one after changing to a directory found via
$CDPATH when in physical mode (set -o physical)
[in bash-2.02.1]
make_cmd.c
- make make_cond_command initialize the line number from the cond_node
that's passed as an argument (not that it's used right now)
copy_cmd.c
- make sure that copy_cond_command copies the type of the cond command,
since execute_cond_command uses that to decide what kind of test
to perform
[in bash-2.02.1]
builtins/printf.def
- make sure the for loop that processes the format string actually
consumes arguments; otherwise process it only once to avoid
infinite loops (e.g., `printf " " abc def ghi')
[in bash-2.02.1]
- if the format string is empty after preprocessing by ansicstr,
return immediately
[in bash-2.02.1]
tests/run-printf
- use `diff -a' so the presence of a non-printing character in the
output doesn't confuse diff into thinking the files are binary
(test whether or not `diff' supports `-a' first)
Makefile.in
- keep $(LOCAL_LIBS) from being specified twice
4/30

support/shobj-conf
- a script to generate variables to do shared object configuration
for the loadable builtin stuff
configure.in
- added a section for shared object configuration using an `eval'

with AC_SUBST
examples/loadables/Makefile.in
- the system-specific shared object configuration variables are now
substituted by configure

builtins/ulimit.def
- some changes for HPUX 9.x's peculiar handling of RLIMIT_FILESIZE
- changed the limit retrieval functions to return an error code

general.c
- new function, get_group_array(), which returns an array of
gids
examples/loadables/{id,printenv,sync,uname,whoami,push}.c
- new loadable builtins
variables.c
- moved code that initializes $PPID into a new function, set_ppid()
variables.h
- extern declaration for set_ppid()
5/6
---
subst.c
- make sure that the `"' (double-quoted string) case of
expand_word_internal calls string_list_dollar_at if we've expanded
a double-quoted $@ so correct splitting on $IFS is done when
the expansion is complete. We can't simply call string_list
because that forces a space separator, and $IFS may not contain
a space

5/11
----
builtins/printf.def
- use the format string length provided by ansicstr() to process the
format string, rather than testing for nullness, to handle NUL
bytes in the expanded format string
builtins/pushd.def
- changes so it can be built as both a regular builtin and a loadable
builtin from the same source
examples/loadables/Makefile.in
- changes to build pushd.c from ${topdir}/builtins/pushd.def and then
compile it with the correct flags to make it a loadable builtin,
even if PUSHD_AND_POPD is not defined in config.h
5/12

lib/readline/complete.c
- use rl_completer_quote_characters instead of #ifdef SHELL/#endif
code in make_quoted_replacement. This means complete.c no longer
has any #ifdef SHELL code

builtins/Makefile.in
- `make clean' should remove mkbuiltins.o
Makefile.in
- all of the various `clean' targets need to descend into lib/sh
and run the appropriate target there
builtins/type.def
- changed to use the builtin getopt. The old long options are
handled by prescanning the argument list looking for the long
options, processing them, and taking them out of the list before
passing it to internal_getopt()
lib/readline/signals.c
- removed #ifdef SHELL code -- job control signals and SIGTERM are
always set in rl_set_signals, but are set to SIG_IGN if the old
handler was SIG_IGN (as bash sets it)
- new function rl_maybe_set_sighandler, which sets the signal
disposition back to SIG_IGN if the old handler was SIG_IGN
- removed #ifdef HANDLE_JOB_SIGNALS and #ifdef HANDLE_SIGTERM code
lib/readline/rltty.c
- removed #ifdef SHELL code -- set_winsize is always called
to force the application to stop if it's not in the foreground
before getting the tty attributes
5/14
----
lib/readline/signals.c
- readline now catches SIGQUIT and cleans up the tty before resending
it to its container application (unless the calling application has
set the disposition of SIGQUIT to be SIG_IGN)
- rl_handle_sigwinch is now called rl_sigwinch_handler
- rl_sigwinch_handler now calls rl_resize_terminal to fetch the
screen size after a SIGWINCH
- the sighandler_cxt struct for non-posix systems now includes
sa_flags and sa_mask variables, for future use
- new variable, rl_catch_signals, indicating that readline should
install its own signal handlers for SIGINT, SIGTERM, SIGQUIT,
SIGALRM, SIGTSTP, SIGTTIN, and SIGTTOU
- new variable, rl_catch_sigwinch, indicating that readline should
install its own SIGWINCH handler, which will chain to a calling
application's SIGWINCH handler
- new function, rl_free_line_state(), to free up variable state
associated with the current line after receiving a signal
- new function, rl_cleanup_after_signal(), to clean up the display
and terminal state after receiving a signal
- new function, rl_reset_after_signal(), to reinitialize the
terminal state after a signal handler returns and readline
continues
- rl_set_signals and rl_clear_signals now look at the values of
rl_catch_signals and rl_catch_sigwinch
lib/readline/terminal.c
- new function rl_resize_terminal (), to reset readline's idea of
the screen size after a SIGWINCH
lib/readline/readline.h
- extern declarations for rl_resize_terminal(), rl_free_line_state(),
rl_cleanup_after_signal(), rl_reset_after_signal()
- extern declarations for rl_catch_signals and rl_catch_sigwinch
variables.c
- new functions, get_env_value(char *) and get_home_dir(void) to
satisfy references from the tilde and readline libraries when
they are compiled as part of bash
lib/tilde/tilde.c
- rely on extern declarations of get_env_value and get_home_dir;
there is no more #ifdef SHELL code
lib/readline/shell.c
- implementation of get_home_dir that uses getpwuid() to satisfy
references from tilde.c when not compiled as part of bash
- removed savestring()
- removed #ifdef SHELL/#endif pair -- all of these functions will be
resolved from bash when readline is linked into bash
lib/readline/savestring.c
- new file, with function definition for savestring() for backwards
compatibility
Makefile.in, _distribution
- bumped things up to bash-2.03-alpha
5/15
----
lib/readline/rlconf.h
- removed #ifdef SHELL/#endif pair, so the callback stuff will be
compiled into libreadline, but never linked into bash (since it's
not referenced)
configure.in
- added new `--with-installed-readline' option to allow readline to
be linked with an already-installed version -- this will probably
not work with versions of readline prior to 2.3 (libreadline.so.4)
[THIS IS STILL UNDOCUMENTED]
Makefile.in
- changed necessary variables to allow the `--with-installed-readline'
option to work; shared and static libraries are supported

the version number of the shared libraries
lib/readline/doc/{hist,rlman}.texinfo
- changed the version and edition to 4.0 to match the library version
support/config.guess
- added case clause for matching UnixWare 7 from SCO (SVR5) -- further
work may be needed
[These fixes were in a usenet posting from hops@sco.com]
support/config.sub
- added case clauses to recognize various aliases for SCO Open Server
and Open Desktop
[in bash-2.02.1]
- broke the code that canonicalizes unixware into unixware2 and
unixware7 clauses (multiple places)
[in bash-2.02.1]
- added clause to recognize `sysv5' for SVR5
[These fixes were in a usenet posting from hops@sco.com]

5/22
----
lib/readline/complete.c
- broke the code that actually displays a list of completion
matches on the output stream into a separate public function,
rl_display_match_list, so it can be called from the hook
function rl_completion_display_matches_hook.
lib/readline/readline.h
- new extern declaration for rl_display_match_list
lib/readline/rltech.texinfo
- documented rl_display_match_list
configure.in,Makefile.in
- --enable-static-link now creates a STATIC_LD variable in Makefile
rather than adding to LDFLAGS directly. LDFLAGS now includes
$(STATIC_LD)

builtins/cd.def
- OLDPWD is now auto-exported
- broke the code out of bindpwd() that updated the value of PWD in
the export environment in-place and made it general, so it can
be used for OLDPWD, too (this should be made *more* general, and
moved to variables.c)
6/3

variables.c
- moved builtins/cd.def:export_pwd_var to here, renamed it to
update_export_env_inplace
- converted put_command_name_into_env to just call
update_export_env_inplace
- made dummy variable for OLDPWD, marked as invisible and exported,
in initialize_shell_variables
variables.h
- extern declaration for update_export_env_inplace
builtins/cd.def

lib/readline/bind.c
- added missing return in rl_unbind_function_in_map
- changed _rl_read_file to check whether or not `read' returns
< 0 rather than < file_size
- _rl_read_init_file needs to free `openname' after calling
_rl_read_file, since it's not used again
lib/readline/callback.c
- bogus extern declaration for `readline_internal_startup', should
be readline_internal_setup
lib/readline/histfile.c
- read_history_range now checks whether read(2) returns < 0 rather
than checking the return value against the file size
lib/readline/parens.c
- whoops -- timer.tv_usec is *micro* seconds, not milliseconds
lib/readline/readline.c
- initialize `eof' to 1 in readline_internal_charloop
6/5

configure.in
- if we're configuring with an installed version of readline, set and
have configure substitute RL_INCLUDE to `-I$(includedir)', so the
build process uses the installed readline include files as well as
the libraries
Makefile.in, builtins/Makefile.in
- add @RL_INCLUDE@ in the appropriate places, substituted by configure
lib/readline/{history,readline}.h
- add `extern "C"' wrapper if `__cplusplus' is defined
lib/glob/fnmatch.h
- include stdc.h

lib/readline/history.h
- the `data' member of a HIST_ENTRY is now a histdata_t, which is
either a void * (ansi c) or a char * (k&r c)
lib/readline/readline.c
- changed calls to replace_history_entry to pass a histdata_t as the
third parameter

copy_cmd.c
- make sure that copy_cond_command doesn't blindly try to copy
com->op, since that will be null for AND and OR nodes, at least
[in bash-2.02.1]
lib/readline/vi_mode.c
- added missing second argument to rl_vi_[fbe][Ww]ord(), since
they're used as pseudo-bindable commands (they appear in the
default funmap) as well as utility functions
lib/readline/readline.h
- include rlstdc.h
- added prototypes for functions from vi_mode.c, util.c, terminal.c,
search.c, util.c, undo.c, readline.c, parens.c, macro.c, kill.c,
keymaps.c, isearch.c, input.c, funmap.c, display.c, complete.c,

jobs.c
- cast result of strsignal() to (char *) for the benefit of broken
Cray UNICOS machines
[in bash-2.02.1]
configure.in,aclocal.m4
- new test, BASH_TYPE_BITS64_T, used to find out what basic type is
64 bits long; defaults to `double'
- call AC_CHECK_SIZEOF(double)
config.h.in
- #define for bits64_t, undef by default
6/24
----
aclocal.m4
- changed BASH_TYPE_BITS64_T so that it checks the size of a char *
first, before trying sizeof(double)
lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo,doc/{bash.1,readline.3}
- changed default binding for tilde-expand to M-&, since bash
overrides M-~ to force username completion
bashline.c
- fixed an off-by-one error in hostnames_matching that exhibited
itself when an exact multiple of 16 hostnames matched (fix
from <davidg@nikhef.nl>)
[in bash-2.02.1]
6/30
----
lib/readline/readline.c
- the maximum numeric argument is now 1000000
bashline.c
- fixed a bug in bash_directory_completion_hook that caused memory
to be freed twice if a directory name containing an unset
variable was completed and `set -u' had been set
configure.in
- on LynxOS, add a -DRECYCLES_PIDS to LOCAL_CFLAGS
execute_cmd.c
- make sure that the changes to make the shell fork early when
run in the background do not cause commands such as `%1 &'
to fork
[in bash-2.02.1]
- if RECYCLES_PIDS is defined, execute_command_internal sets
last_made_pid to NO_PID after waiting for a foreground process,
if the return status is 0 (fix from plai@Lynx.COM (Paul Lai))
lib/readline/kill.c
- fixes from Andreas Schwab to rl_yank_last_arg that make it
behave better
lib/readline/input.c
- fixes from Donald Beaudry <donb@sgi.com> to make the input buffering
and rl_stuff_char work right when the input buffer is nearly full
(probably not a problem with keyboard input, but maybe a problem
with programmers attempting to use rl_stuff_char to preload the
input buffer)
7/14
----
parse.y
- fix to decode_prompt_string so that the \$ expansion quotes the `$'
so it won't be processed by subsequent parameter expansion
- change read_token_word so a $$ appearing in a token is recognized
and parsed immediately, so a single or double quote after the
second `$' doesn't cause ANSI-C expansion or locale translation
(bug report from haertel@ichips.intel.com)
7/16
----
lib/readline/display.c
- fixed a bug that caused core dumps in xrealloc if the prompt was
longer than 1024 characters
7/21
----
builtins/mkbuiltins.c
- if the number of characters read from the .def file is less than
the file size reported by `stat', and the read completed without
errors, reset the file size to avoid writing garbage at the end
of the generated .c file (needed on WIN32 systems, doesn't hurt
on Unix)

lib/readline/display.c
- make sure visible_length is initialized to 0 in rl_expand_prompt.
Fix from Gerhard Niklasch <nikl@mathematik.tu-muenchen.de>.

- make sure that quotes are removed from the filename being globbed
in glob_vector() before calling the GLOB_TESTNAME macro if there
are no globbing characters in the pattern
doc/Makefile.in
- make sure that builtins.1 is looked for in $(srcdir) when running
`make install' (it's still commented out, though)

config.h.bot
- if PROMPT_STRING_DECODE is not defined, define PPROMPT (the primary

read-only variables in a restricted shell
doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
- added ENV and BASH_ENV to the list of readonly variables in
restricted mode
parse.y
- added `do', `then', `else', `{', and `(' to the list of keywords
that may precede the `time' reserved word
general.c
- added sanity checks to timeval_to_secs and clock_t_to_secs so
that if the fractional part is >= 1000, 1 is added to the
seconds and 1000 is subtracted from the fractional seconds

externs.h
- extern declaration for shell_is_restricted
builtins/shopt.def
- new shopt variable, restricted_shell, indicates whether the shell
was restricted at startup -- useful in startup files
doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}

9/15
----
lib/sh/rename.c
- new file, replacement for rename(2) if the OS doesn't provide it
configure.in,config.h.in,Makefile.in,lib/sh/Makefile.in
- machinery for including rename.o in libsh.a
nojobs.c
- make sure that set_tty_state returns a value
builtins/mkbuiltins.c
- use a call to rename(2) instead of a link/unlink pair
lib/glob/glob.c
- don't #define bcopy if bcopy is already defined
lib/readline/histfile.c
- add a call to ftruncate for BeOS, which ignores the O_TRUNC flag
to open
lib/readline/input.c
- make rl_getc loop if read returns -1/EINTR on BeOS
configure.in
- set ARFLAGS and substitute it into the Makefiles
{,builtins,lib/{glob,malloc,readline,sh,termcap,tilde}}/Makefile.in
- ARFLAGS is now substituted by configure

builtins/printf.def
- fixed bug that caused a core dump when a modifier was supplied
in the format string without a conversion character (e.g. `%h')
9/17

lib/glob/glob.c
- if filenames starting with a dot don't have to be matched
explicitly (e.g., after a `shopt -s dotglob'), don't match
`.' or `..' in any case
eval.c
- make sure that array assignments don't show up in the history list
(fix from Andreas Schwab <schwab@issan.informatik.uni-dortmund.de>)
lib/readline/complete.c
- fix to rl_menu_complete so it inserts a single completion properly
when a word matches only one filename
9/24
----
execute_cmd.c
- difftimeval should zero out the tv_usec field if the tv_sec field
is < 0
- addtimeval should check for tv_usec being == 1000000 and add one
to tv_sec if it is
9/25
----
subst.c
- fix to expand_word_internal to prevent non-whitespace IFS characters
from causing word splitting if they are not the results of an
expansion (not exactly right yet, but I think it's the result of a
problem with the ${...} end-brace-matching code in the parser)
9/28
----
parse.y
- new flag for parse_matched_pair -- P_FIRSTCLOSE -- which makes it not
count and match additional construct open characters
- change calls to parse_matched_pair when matching braces in
${...} constructs (both unquoted and within double quotes) to
specify the P_FIRSTCLOSE flag to match POSIX.2 requirements
subst.c
- changed fix from 9/25, now that the parser problem is fixed
9/30

variables.c
- change expansion of list of words between (...) in array assignments
to include pathname generation in assign_array_var_from_string

<qrczak@knm.org.pl>
- in update_line, if we are printing over existing material,
only call space_to_eol or _rl_clear_to_eol if lendiff is non-zero
- when moving the cursor in _rl_move_cursor_relative, only call
_rl_backspace if the current cursor position is strictly greater
than the desired cursor position

locale.c
- LC_ALL is no longer set automatically when LANG is assigned a value
config.h.{top,bot}

execute_cmd.c
- fix_assignment_statements now turns on the W_NOGLOB flag for
arguments to `assignment builtins' that have W_ASSIGNMENT set
subst.c
- expand_word_internal needs to preserve the W_NOGLOB flag from
the word being expanded to the word being returned
- glob_expand_word_list does not call shell_glob_filename for a
word with W_NOGLOB set
builtins/shopt.def
- print_shopt is now void
configure.in
- machines running Rhapsody don't use the bash malloc

tests/extglob.tests
- updated with cases from bug report fixed today
support/shobj-conf
- udpated stanza for aix 4.2 with gcc, based on information from
jik@cisco.com
configure.in
- changes to add the correct linker options to allow dynamic linking
when using gcc on AIX 4.2, instead of insisting on the AIX C
compiler
examples/misc/aliasconv.{bash,sh}
- changes to handle aliases with embedded single quotes
11/25
-----
lib/readline/complete.c
- postprocess_matches should call compute_lcd_of_matches with an
argument of `t' instead of `text'
- postprocess_matches should never call ding(); leave that for the
callers
- postprocess_matches no longer needs `text' as the first argument
- rl_complete_internal needs to call ding() if postprocess_matches
returns 0, since postprocess_matches no longer does it
- rl_complete_internal can now free `text' immediately after calling
gen_completion_matches, since it's no longer used
11/30
-----
print_cmd.c
- make sure redirections following compound commands have a space
separating them from the command
12/1
----
general.c
- changed canonicalize_pathname so that if the result path begins
with `//', it will be changed to `/' if and only if the original
path did not begin with `//' (there has to be a non-slash after
the leading `///' in the original path)
12/2
----
builtins/evalstring.c
- augment the test for turning on CMD_NO_FORK to make sure that
parse_and_execute_level == 1. That takes care of things like
bash -c 'for f in 1 2 3; do eval "/bin/echo \"$f\"" ; done'
only printing one line of output
12/8
----
config-top.h
- add commented-out #define for NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS so
that users may, if they choose, make things like
#! /bin/bash --login
work in shell scripts
12/10
-----
jobs.c
- changes to the way jobs are reaped when the shell is not
interactive:
o notify_of_job_status no longer marks dead jobs as
notified if they did not exit due to a signal;
o changed mark_background_jobs_as_notified to take an
argument `force': if zero, we only mark enough
dead jobs as notified to keep CHILD_MAX jobs in the
jobs list, as POSIX.2 specifies. If non-zero, mark
all dead jobs as notified;
o wait_for_background_pids marks all dead jobs as
notified when it has finished waiting for everything,
since the only thing that calls it is the `wait' builtin;
o wait_for_single_pid marks a job as notified after it
has completed, since the only things that call it are
wait_for_background_pids and the `wait' builtin
o wait_for_job marks the job as notified after the last
pid completes
execute_cmd.c
- change execute_subshell_builtin_or_function to check
subshell_environment and pipe_out to decide whether or not to fork
if builtin == jobs_builtin, since the early-forking code added in
bash-2.02 means that the piping has probably already been done
12/15
-----
parse.y
- changes to make avar=((...)) a syntax error instead of ignoring
the nested parens and treating it as an array assignment
shell.c
- changed run_startup_files so that any shell, whether or not it is
interactive, will run the login shell startup files when given the
--login option. This happens only when not in posix mode.
builtins/enable.def
- changes to handle Tenon's MachTen, whose dlclose() does not return
a value
lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- changed gmatch so that when it calls extmatch, it removes FNM_PERIOD
from the flags if it's not matching at the start of the string.
This fixes the problem of `@' and `+' extended-glob subpatterns
containing bracket expressions treating `.' specially when matching
a portion of the string starting with `.'
config-top.h
- removed define for NON_INTERACTIVE_LOGIN_SHELLS, since it's no longer
necessary
12/17
-----
lib/readline/complete.c
- change rl_complete_internal and rl_menu_complete to check
rl_filename_completion_desired to decide whether or not we're
completing filenames instead of checking whether the attempted
completion function is filename_completion_function.
filename_completion_function sets rl_filename_completion_desired,
so this shouldn't break anything -- just allow postprocessing of
matches for user-supplied filename completion functions that don't
call filename_completion_function
lib/readline/display.c
- new function, _rl_erase_entire_line, which erases the entire line,
no matter where the cursor is, and puts the cursor at the beginning
of the (newly-empty) line
lib/readline/readline.c
- new application-level variable, rl_erase_empty_line, which, if
non-zero, tells readline to erase the contents of the current line,
prompt and all, if the only character typed to an otherwise-blank
line is bound to rl_newline. Requested by the Cygnus GDB folks.
- change to rl_newline to suppress the call to _rl_update_final if
rl_erase_empty_line is non-zero, and rl_point == rl_end == 0, since
_rl_update_final calls crlf()
- change to readline_internal_charloop to call _rl_erase_entire_line
if newline was the only thing typed on an otherwise-empty line
lib/readline/readline.h
- extern declaration for rl_erase_empty_line
lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo
- documented new rl_erase_empty_line variable

12/22
-----
support/shobj-conf
- SHOBJ_LDFLAGS should be those options to ld which are common
between building dynamically loadable shared objects and shared
libraries
- added two new variables: SHOBJ_XLDFLAGS, which are ld options
specific to building dynamically loaded shared objects, and
SHLIB_LIBS, which are other libraries against which shared libraries
should be linked. These are for the benefit of AIX 4.2; other
stanzas do not need to be changed.
configure.in
- add call to AC_SUBST for SHOBJ_XLDFLAGS
examples/loadables/Makefile.in
- SHOBJ_XLDFLAGS is now substituted by configure
- $(SHOBJ_LDFLAGS) -> $(SHOBJ_LDFLAGS) $(SHOBJ_XLDFLAGS) in all
recipes that build loadable builtins

lib/readline/bind.c
- new bindable variable, `isearch-terminators', which is the list of
characters that will terminate an incremental search without
subsequently executing the character as a command
lib/readline/isearch.c
- changes to incorporate the new isearch-terminators bindable variable;
uses new private readline variable _rl_isearch_terminators
(suggested by Brian Fox)
doc/{bash.1,readline.3}, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
- documented new `isearch-terminators' settable variable
lib/readline/complete.c
- new convenience function, free_match_list, called from
rl_complete_internal
12/30
-----
aclocal.m4
- changed the calls to AC_MSG_ERROR in the cross-compiling sections
to AC_MSG_WARN, since AC_MSG_ERROR can cause configure to abort
examples/functions/which
- new function, emulation of `which' as it appears in FreeBSD
12/31
-----
lib/readline/readline.c
- new bindable function: rl_rubout_or_delete. Does rl_rubout if
rl_point is at the end of the line, or rl_delete if not. This
is intended to mimic the Motif/Netscape/GNOME behavior of the
DEL character, and can be bound to delete to get that behavior
lib/readline/readline.h
- new extern declaration for rl_rubout_or_delete
lib/readline/funmap.c
- bound the name `forward-backward-delete-char' to
rl_rubout_or_delete (currently not bound to any keys)
lib/readline/doc/manvers.texinfo
- new file with readline manual version information, to mantain
consistent numbering between readline and history manuals
lib/readline/doc/{rlman,hist}.texinfo
- @include manvers.texinfo for version information
- moved the @dircategory and and @direntry directives inside
the @ifinfo block
- changed copyrights to 1988-1999
doc/Makefile.in, lib/readline/doc/Makefile.in
- texi2html is now called with -menu (to handle the texinfo menus)
and -monolithic (to include the table of contents in the generated
HTML file instead of putting it in a separate file
- changed recipes to remove references to TOC html files
lib/glob/fnmatch.c
- include <string.h> or <strings.h> as appropriate for strchr()
declaration

print_cmd.c
- don't print bare words when printing conditional expressions in
print_cond_node, use cprintf("%s", cond->op->word)

entry, free it up to clean up after a previous error longjmp

machines catches things like `alphaev56' as well as `alpha'
1/12

lib/readline/histlib.h
- new error message code: NO_PREV_SUBST
lib/readline/histexpand.c
- handle NO_PREV_SUBST with appropriate error message in hist_error
- in history_expand_internal, if the `s' or `&' case results in a
null or empty LHS, return NO_PREV_SUBST
error.c
- new interface: command_error(func, code, e, flags); intended to
collect command-related errors in one place
- new interface: command_errstr(code); returns a string describing
command error CODE
error.h
- extern declarations for command_error and command_errstr
command.h
- possible values for CODE in calls to command_error and command_errstr
{shell,print_cmd,make_cmd,execute_cmd,dispose_cmd,eval}.c ,builtins/evalstring.c
- changed some calls to programming_error to use command_error
1/13

configure.in
- if --enable-profiling is specified on a solaris2 machine, don't
turn on enable-static-link, since it's very hard to build a
static binary on solaris2 and gprof does not (apparently) require it
builtins/getopts.def
- add calls to sh_getopt_restore_state so the state is restored each
time getopts is called. This protects us against the behavior of
some mallocs, which causes `nextchar' to be set to garbage in
getopt.c when a function is called between calls to getopts
1/14

lib/readline/complete.c
- if postprocess_matches returns 0 in rl_complete_internal, reset
completion_changed_buffer to 0 before returning, since nothing

- if READLINE is defined, we need an extra pair of braces around
the `while' loop that reads from fd 0 if the -e option is
supplied, otherwise the code erroneously tests the value of
`retval', which is not set when using readline
2/15
----
builtins/fc.def
- make sure that fc closes `stream' before calling fc_execute_file
2/17
----
builtins/fc.def
- don't bother opening and closing the file of commands before
calling fc_execute_file, since parse_and_execute will write the
commands to the history file for us
Makefile.in
- changed release status to `release'
2/18
----
parse.y
- change to special_case_tokens so that `time' is not recognized
as a reserved word while the parser is parsing a case statement
pattern list (if `time' is the first pattern, the last read
token will be newline, which time_command_acceptable says is OK
to start a pipeline)
pathexp.c
- some changes to the POSIX_GLOB_LIBRARY code (often unused)
shell.c
- a couple of changes for Interix (nee OPENNT)
- added code that handles systems without a third argument to main();
initializing `env' from `environ', conditionalized on a cpp define
NO_MAIN_ENV_ARG
configure.in, config.h.in
- check for the presence of sbrk(2); define HAVE_SBRK if found
xmalloc.c
- don't do the space allocated computation when malloc or realloc
fails if HAVE_SBRK is not defined
configure.in
- new configure variable, MAKE_SHELL, defaults to /bin/sh
Makefile.in,{builtins,doc,support,lib/{glob,malloc,readline,sh,termcap,tilde},examples/loadables}/Makefile.in
- set SHELL from @MAKE_SHELL@
lib/posixheaders/posixjmp.h
- Don't override defines for setjmp and longjmp in <setjmp.h> on
Internix (nee OPENNT)
lib/readline/complete.c
- Interix (OPENNT) doesn't do username completion
configure.in
- on Interix/OPENNT ($host_os == interix* or opennt*), add
-DNO_MAIN_ENV_ARG to LOCAL_CFLAGS
- on Interix/OPENNT, set MAKE_SHELL to $OPENNT_ROOT/bin/sh rather
than a straight /bin/sh
cross-build/opennt.cache
- a `configure' cache file for Interix/OPENNT; not necessarily
for cross-compiling, but this is where the other system cache
files are
