1. Alan's user-info bug
Looks to me like the fix is to change cig. Which I hate doing -- cig
is gruesome code. I will look into it.
2. scsh seemed to ignore a keyboard generated SIGINT during a (sleep 30).
Yes. This has already been fixed in the next release (I wrote my
own sleep function using select(), instead of using the system sleep().
3. From: ortmann@VNET.IBM.COM (Daniel Ortmann)
(note: this could be due merely to my own 'newbie' user ignorance.)
(run ("/bin/ls -l /proc/curproc/file")) appears to fail on FreeBSD with...
This is your own newbie user ignorance. Your basic problem is that there
is no executable file in your $PATH named
"/bin/ls -l /proc/curproc/file"
...but there is one named
"/bin/ls"
Perhaps you meant to say
(run ("/bin/ls" "-l" "/proc/curproc/file"))
or, equivalently,
(run (/bin/ls -l /proc/curproc/file))
Get it?
4. From: Leif Nixon <nixon@softlab.se>
Date and time strangeness in scsh 0.4/SunOS 4.3.1_U1/SunOS 5.5
I cannot replicate your bug, Leif. I would appreciate it if you could track
this down a little bit for me. One good way to do this is to (1)
print out and read through scsh/time1.c, (2) run scsh from gdb as
follows
gdb scshvm
<Set break points at the entry to the functions in time1.c>
run -o ./scshvm -i scsh/scsh.image <Or whatever is right for you>
(time (date)) <Trigger the bug>
<single-step through the time1.c funs in gdb>
Thank you all for the reports. This is a *great* time to get them in, as
I'm in the middle of trying to kick out a new release.
Leif, if you find out anything useful, please let me know ASAP -- we may be
able to get the fix in before the release.
