Hi! ----
Attached (as "sun_printf20080923_001.sh") is the first try for a /usr/bin/printf replacement which counts in columns instead of bytes... could anyone give it a try (note it needs the ksh93 version in the prototype012 tree (e.g. ast-ksh.2008-11-04 or higher)), please ? If this works we can run the ARC case to replace /usr/bin/printf with this code and make an equivalent /usr/xpg4/bin/printf script which directly links to the ksh93 builtin ---- Bye, Roland -- __ . . __ (o.\ \/ /.o) roland.mainz at nrubsig.org \__\/\/__/ MPEG specialist, C&&JAVA&&Sun&&Unix programmer /O /==\ O\ TEL +49 641 3992797 (;O/ \/ \O;) -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
