For the log: In the ksh93-integration project we moved tr.c and od.c to libcmd as preparation to use these builtins to replace the (rotten&&unmaintained&&standard-violating) old versions in /usr/bin. Testing by Sun (PIT+standards) did work smoothly (except issues in "od" which were promptly fixed by Glenn and the issue that 'tr" doesn't support XPG6's "-C") ... so technically I don't see problems with moving those two to libcmd, too. ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.ma...@nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;) _______________________________________________ ast-developers mailing list ast-developers@research.att.com https://mailman.research.att.com/mailman/listinfo/ast-developers
