Can you use strace on Solaris to see what ex is a

When I last tried something like that (in something else), I discovered that
"\n" wasn't portable. Perhaps the be

Unless I'm missing
Sorry, spoke too soon. The real problem has to do with output redirection.
if echo 'r /nonexist-file
q' | ex
works but
if echo 'r /nonexist-file
q' | ex > /dev/null 2>&1
hangs.
Redirecting just standard output cause no problem. But there doesn't
seem any output to redirect anyway...
If vim 6.0 is installed on a Solaris system, the 'ex' program included with
vim 6.0 goes into an infinite loop when this statement in 'configure' is
executed:
if echo 'r /nonexist-file
q' | ex > /dev/null 2>&1
It seems wrong to me to include a newline in the string this way. It could be

The makefile in the 'man' directory works with GNU make, but not Sun
make (/usr/ccs/bin/make).
What's the preferred solution here? Require GNU make? If so, shouldn't the
configure script check for its presence, and set execution paths accordingly?

The "vi" on some systems (including solaris) returns a non-zero
exit status if any command at all failed during the vi session.
Presumably this makes sense if vi is running in the background

I have it working on Solaris (albeit an old 2.6) and Linux RH9.

Hm, well ... how about everyone (including me) makes sure what's on the
1.1 branch compiles

Rather poorly, but yes (well, I just got back from a two week vacation in
Europe).

Please let's do it!!
I've been using nmh-1.1-RC1.tar.gz since Nov 18, 2002. It works. I give
it my blessing (for whatever that's worth!).
I've forgotten who had put it together and where it's hosted - does
anyone remember??
Are you still sheparding this project? I remembered to look at
http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/nmh
I noticed that there are outstanding bugs - I haven't had a chance to look
at the reports. Do you need help with them?
Hi. Seems like we've had a 1.1 release candidate sitting for a long
time. Can we make it a release yet? It would be nice to have something
newer than 1.0.4 going into things like Linux distributions.
