Extend "test" and "expr" to 64 bit integers

2000-06-23 Thread Stefan Esser
These simple changes make "test" and "expr" operate on 64 bit integers (tested on i86 only, but I plan to test them on Alpha next week). Motivation: I recently found a third party shell skript, which used "test" to verify the (numeric) match of a checksum. The algorithm worked on unsigned int
