[Bug 1052653] Re: cal doesn't remove all formatting when stdout is a pipe
>From looking at the source, this is possibly by design, but I'd argue
that it's flawed logic to behave this way:
/*
* If it is a real terminal, use the data from the termcap database.
*/
if (term_so != NULL && term_se != NULL) {
/* separator. */
dst[0] = ' ';
dst++;
/* highlight on. */
memcpy(dst, term_so, strlen(term_so));
dst += strlen(term_so);
/* the actual text. (minus leading space) */
len--;
src++;
memcpy(dst, src, len);
dst += len;
/* highlight off. */
memcpy(dst, term_se, strlen(term_se));
*extralen = strlen(term_so) + strlen(term_se);
return;
}
/*
* Otherwise, print a _, backspace and the letter.
*/
*extralen = 0;
/* skip leading space. */
src++;
len--;
/* separator. */
dst[0] = ' ';
dst++;
while (len > 0) {
/* _ and backspace. */
memcpy(dst, "_\010", 2);
dst += 2;
*extralen += 2;
/* the character. */
*dst++ = *src++;
len--;
}
return;
