-------------------------
Whether or not there are any remaining m-tx users, it would seem that there
are no possible issues arising from the uninitialized variable in the
implementation of function grep because function grep is only used in the
implementation of function match and function match is never used in the
current m-tx sources. In short, it would appear that there is no urgency to
update the m-tx package. I again ask if anyone might be interested in
taking over maintaining the Pascal sources.

A sofftware engineer has reported an uninitialized-variable bug in the

issues that might be attributed to this, please let me know. The bug at
issue is in Dirk's Pascal sources but presumably he never encountered it or
perhaps the fpc compiler he used would quietly fix he issue in some way;
however, the most likely naive "solution", initializing the Boolean
variable to false, would actually be incorrect.
