For me the most annoying change in 6.12 (Solaris 10ff.) was the redefinition
of the ignoreeof variable. The change was reverted in 6.13
How was it redefined? (I use it but found no noteworthy change)
My settings:
set ignoreeof=3
caused in tcsh <6.12, >6.12 that after the third ^D the shell closes. In 6.12
the shell closes after the forth ^D.
It seems I am not the only one annoyed by this change, so they reverted it
back to the original and documented it:
V6.12.00 - 20020732
Make $ignoreeof agree with the man page (Matias Moreno Meringer)
V6.13.00 - 20040519
revert ignoreeof to the 6.11.00 behavior and document it
(Martin Godisch)
The error was in the 6.12 version: Instead of adjusting the documentation to
the real behaviour they changed the code to the documented behaviour. This is
almost always the wrong approrach.
