Hi, I’m starting a new thread so I can archive the old one.
I’ve merged most of your patch, only did some things differently. I also added your copyright to misc.c which had the most logic from you; feel free to send patches to change your copyright info on files you feel you have co-authorship now. I’ve disabled the Vi editing mode for EBCDIC for now, it’s got its own lookup table (although we can probably handle that with the rtt2asc() macro as well, now that I think about it). I’ve not merged the huuuge “intro to EBCDIC in the comments” part, as some of it is no longer entirely true after our discussion. Please *do* update it and send me an appropriate patch when you have time. Can you please test mksh CVS HEAD? (CVS and github mirror should update within the next couple of minutes.) $ sh Build.sh -r -E && ./test.sh The new -E option is necessary to enable EBCDIC, I chose to not rely on autodetection as we will need this in the testsuite, too. Thanks, //mirabilos -- [...] if maybe ext3fs wasn't a better pick, or jfs, or maybe reiserfs, oh but what about xfs, and if only i had waited until reiser4 was ready... in the be- ginning, there was ffs, and in the middle, there was ffs, and at the end, there was still ffs, and the sys admins knew it was good. :) -- Ted Unangst über *fs
