I'm happy to announce a new release of GNU Zile, the minimal Emacs clone. This release fixes a serious bug introduced in the 2.6 series, where visiting a file containing no newlines would cause an immediate crash. Apologies for this, and thanks to Martin Thierer for reporting it.
Here are the compressed sources and a GPG detached signature[*]: https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/zile/zile-2.6.2.tar.gz https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/zile/zile-2.6.2.tar.gz.sig Use a mirror for higher download bandwidth: https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html [*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the .sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this: gpg --verify zile-2.6.2.tar.gz.sig If that command fails because you don't have the required public key, then run this command to import it: gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 4C8EF3DA3FD37230 and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command. This release was bootstrapped with the following tools: Autoconf 2.69 Automake 1.16.1 Gnulib v0.1-4513-g79a63f591 NEWS * Noteworthy changes in release 2.6.2 (2021-05-04) [stable] ** Bug fixes Fix bug #60519, introduced in 2.6.0, where visiting a file that contained no line endings would cause a null pointer dereference. -- If you have a working or partly working program that you'd like to offer to the GNU project as a GNU package, see https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html.
