Fixed several mutual exclusion problems, including a particularly nasty one that would cause gsh to loop forever inside the memory manager. (You could identify this one by the "BRA (-23)" at the bottom of the infinite loop.) Fixed the string vector print routine to properly handle all numbers of entries in the hash table. Previously, it would always print duplicate entries if there were < 6 commands hashed, and would sometimes print duplicates (depending on previous contents of an internal table) for other numbers of commands. gsh would wait on background processes started from an exec file (executed, not sourced). Now the exec file does not wait on the process, but the background process is not associated with the parent shell after the exec file terminates. Made gsh globbing work more like csh: if none of the requested patterns are found, print "No match" and exit. At startup, if /etc/glogin, $HOME/glogin, or $HOME/gshrc does not exist, don't report a "file not found" error message. (PR#100)

Completed items are reported in file UpdateLog.

|
|
|
|
Allow redirection of built-in commands' I/O even if they aren't forked.
|
|
|
|
Rather than have each built-in command always be either forked or
|
|
non-forked, check dynamically and only fork when it's really necessary
|
|
(background or piped).
|
|
|
|
Identify limits built into gsh and how they can be changed; for example,
|
|
command line cannot expand to > 1024 characters.
|
|
|
|
When a background process finishes and there's text in the input buffer,
|
|
the next keypress correctly reprints the edit line but the key itself does
|
|
not get put in the buffer.
|
|
|
|
Gsh requires the v2.0.4 ltermcap to link. A new version of the termcap
|
|
library is proposed for GNO v2.0.6, and gsh may require updates.
|
|
|
|
job control monitor for defunct processes when waiting.
|
|
|
|
job control needs to save tty information.
|
|
|
|
Allow ~user construct (call routines to get user's home directory)
|
|
|
|
recursive aliases.
|
|
|
|
In expandvars (expand.asm):
|
|
Add error checking if out buf gets too big (> 1024)
|
|
Get rid of fixed buffers
|
|
|
|
[ -- below this line...probably never will be done -- ]
|
|
|
|
write new memory management.
|
|
|
|
coolish handling of setdebug by editor.
|
|
|
|
echo should use octal and hex \12 is dec, \012 is octal, \x12 is hex.
|
|
|
|
write history expansion.
