2014-01-02maint: update all copyright year number rangesBernhard Voelker
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2013-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright", but then also run this, perl -pi -e 's/2\d\d\d-//' tests/sample-test to make that one script use the single most recent year number.
2012-01-09maint: src/*.c: change remaining quotes (without embedded spaces)Jim Meyering
Run this (twice): git grep -E -l '`[^ ]+'\' src/*.c \ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/`([^ ]+'\'')/'\''$1/'
2012-01-09maint: convert `...' to '...' in --help outputJim Meyering
All affected lines end with \ or \n\, so run this command until it produces no new changes (4 times): git grep -E -l '`[^ ]+'\''.*\\' src \ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/`([^ ]+'\''.*\\)/'\''$1/'
2012-01-07maint: use new emit_try_help in place of equivalent fprintfJim Meyering
Run this command: perl -0777 -pi -e \ 's/fprintf \(stderr, _\("Try `%s --help.*\n.*;/emit_try_help ();/m'\ src/*.c
2012-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2011-08-13maint: remove empty statement after jump labelBernhard Voelker
* src/head.c (elide_tail_bytes_pipe): Remove the empty statement, ";" after a jump label; it is needed only when a declaration follows. * src/kill.c (main): Likewise. * src/od.c (main): Likewise. * src/paste.c (collapse_escapes): Likewise. * src/printf.c (print_formatted): Likewise.
2011-05-18printf: fix an out-of-bounds memory accessPádraig Brady
* src/printf.c (STRTOX): Don't access memory after a string containing a single quote character. * tests/misc/printf: Add tests for various combinations of single quote characters combined with a numeric format. * THANKS.in: Add bug reporter. * NEWS: Mention the fix. Reported-by: Paul Marinescu <paul.marinescu@imperial.ac.uk>
2011-01-01maint: update all copyright year number rangesJim Meyering
Run "make update-copyright".
2010-01-01maint: update all FSF copyright year lists to include 2010Jim Meyering
Use this command: git ls-files | grep -v COPYING \ | xargs env UPDATE_COPYRIGHT_USE_INTERVALS=1 \ build-aux/update-copyright
2009-10-28doc: improve the echo and printf help on escapesPádraig Brady
* src/printf.c (usage): Merge strings with echo.c to aid translators. Move the description for \NNN beside the other numeric escape codes. Don't mention "character" as that suggests character conversion. * src/echo.c (usage): Likewise. Also mention the \xHH escape sequence.
2009-10-28echo, printf: interpret \e as the Escape characterPádraig Brady
Match gcc, perl, bash, ksh, tcsh, ... in supporting \e. * src/printf.c (print_escape_char): Output \x1B when \e encountered. * src/echo.c (main): Likewise. * src/stat.c (print_escape_char): Likewise. * doc/coreutils.texi (echo invocation): Add \e to the list. * tests/misc/printf: Verify that \e outputs \x1B. * NEWS: Mention the change in behaviour.
2009-09-21doc: mention the texinfo documentation in --helpPádraig Brady
* src/system.h: Rename emit_bug_reporting_address() to emit_ancillary_info() and update it to not print the translation project address in en_* locales, and _do_ print it in the 'C' (and other) locales so that it's included in the default man page. Also mention how to invoke the texinfo documentation for each command. Also move the "hard-locale.h" include to the 8 files that now use it. * man/help2man: Strip the newly added texinfo reference from the --help output as a more verbose version is already added by help2man. Suggestion from C de-Avillez
2009-08-25global: convert indentation-TABs to spacesJim Meyering
Transformed via this shell code: t=$'\t' git ls-files \ | grep -vE '(^|/)((GNU)?[Mm]akefile|ChangeLog)|\.(am|mk)$' \ | grep -vE 'tests/pr/|help2man' \ | xargs grep -lE "^ *$t" \ | xargs perl -MText::Tabs -ni -le \ '$m=/^( *\t[ \t]*)(.*)/; print $m ? expand($1) . $2 : $_'

2006-08-21Add a bootstrap procedure, so that the CVS version contains fewerPaul Eggert
files and we bootstrap the rest from gnulib, gettext, etc. * README-cvs: New file. * bootstrap: New file. * bootstrap.conf: New file. * .x-sc_trailing_blank: Remove config-log, .gdb-history. Add .po. * configure.ac (AC_PREREQ): Move here from m4/*.m4, for benefit of gnulib-tool. (gl_DEFAULT_POSIX2_VERSION, gl_USE_SYSTEM_EXTENSIONS, gl_PERL): (gl_IGNORE_UNUSED_LIBRARIES): Remove; now done by gnulib. (gl_EARLY): Add. (gl_MACROS): Call just after gl_EARLY, just for clarity. * src/c99-to-c98.diff: Remove patch to ls.c; no longer needed. * src/kill.c (strtoimax): Remove decl. * src/ls.c: Include "wcwidth.h" instead of rolling it ourselves. * src/wc.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c (sort_files): Rewrite to avoid need for C99-style declaration, so that we don't need to patch this file. * src/printf.c (strtoimax, strtoumax): Remove decls. * src/su.c: Include getpass.h. (getpass): remove. * src/system.h: Include mempcpy.h, stpcpy.h, strpbrk.h. Include inttypes.h unconditionally; remove decls it handles. * lib/Makefile.am: include gnulib.mk, so that we can remove most of this file. (AM_CPPFLAGS): Don't mention -I$(srcdir), since that's now done for us. (noinst_LIBRARIES, LDDADD, DEFS): Remove. (libcoreutils_a_SOURCES): Trim down greatly, just to the files that aren't in gnulib. Remove defns gnulib does for us. * m4/check-decl.m4 (gl_CHECK_DECLS): Don't include stdio.h, string.h, stdlib.h, unistd.h, sys/time.h, time.h. Use AC_CHECK_DECLS_ONCE for free, getenv, geteuid, getlogin, getuid, lseek, malloc, memchr, realloc. Don't check for getutent, memrchr, nanosleep, stpcpy, strndup, strnlen, strstr, strtoul, strtoull. (_gl_DECL_HEADERS): Remove; all uses removed. * m4/jm-macros.m4 (gl_MACROS): Move AC_PREREQ into configure.ac for the benefit of gnulib-tool. Call gl_INIT.

2006-07-09(print_esc): Don't assume char is unsigned.Paul Eggert
2005-07-03(verify_numeric): Rename from verify.Jim Meyering
Update caller.
2005-06-16Don't embed `this'-style quotes in format strings.Jim Meyering
Include "quote.h". Rather than this: error (..., "...`%s'...", arg); do this: error (..., "...%s...", quote (arg));
2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering
2005-05-14Update FSF postal mail address.Jim Meyering
2005-04-04(usage): Move USAGE_BUILTIN_WARNING to end of --help output.Jim Meyering
2005-04-04(usage): Mention that some shells provide a built-inJim Meyering
function by the same name.
2005-03-06Remove register keyword.Jim Meyering
2004-10-15(usage): Mention Unicode, and use H for hex digits.Paul Eggert
2004-08-03(posixly_correct): Use bool for booleans.Paul Eggert
(verify, main): Use EXIT_FAILURE/EXIT_SUCCESS instead of 1/0. (STRTOX): Rewrite to avoid casts. (print_esc_char): Arg is char, not int.
2004-07-28(strtiomax, strtoumax): Declare if not alreadyPaul Eggert
declared: this fixes a portability bug with Solaris 8 + GCC. (STRTOX): Parenthesize use of macro arg as expression. (vstrtoimax, vstrtoumax, vstrtold): Remove now-unnecessary parentheses.
2004-07-12(vstrtold): Renamed from vstrtod.Paul Eggert
Now returns long double. All uses changed. (print_direc): Use "L" length modifier when printing floating point numbers, since we're now printing long double.
2004-07-08printf cleanup, to avoid undefined behavior, to add support forJim Meyering
formats that Bash supports, and to support wide integers like Bash does. (UNSPECIFIED): Remove. All uses now replaced by booleans, so that we don't reserve any values for precision or width (like Bash). (STRTOX): Use prototype, not K&R-style definition. (vstrtoimax): Renamed from xstrtol (to avoid confusion with xstrtol in ../lib), with type change to intmax_t. All uses changed. (vstrtoumax): Renamed from xstrtoul, with type change to uintmax_t. All uses changed. (vstrtod): Renamed from xstrtod. All uses changed. (print_direc): Use boolean arg instead of special value to indicate a missing precision or width. LENGTH no longer includes length modifiers or conversion character. New arg CONVERSION now specifies conversion character. Use intmax_t-width formatting for integers (like Bash). Add support for C99 %a, %A, %F (like Bash). Add support for field width with %c (POSIX requires this). Add a FIXME for lack of support for field width and precision for %b. Add support for '\'', '0' flags. Check for invalid combinations of flags, field width, precision, and conversion, to prevent use of undefined behavior. Allow multiple length modifiers, for formats like "%lld" (like Bash). Add support for C99 'j', 't', 'z' length modifiers (like Bash). In error message, output entire invalid conversion specification, instead of merely outputting % followed by the conversion char.
2004-06-26(main): When given no arguments, print the standardJim Meyering
"missing operand\nTry printf --help..." message -- to be consistent.
2004-06-15(print_esc): Support \x, \u, \U even if POSIXLY_CORRECT,Jim Meyering
since POSIX says the behavior is unspecified here. (main): Recognize --help, --version even if POSIXLY_CORRECT. POSIX does not specify any options, but it does not prohibit options either, so "printf" is like "expr" here.
2004-05-13(print_esc_char): Use e.g. '\a' rather than '\007',Jim Meyering
for portability to EBCDIC hosts.
2004-01-21(usage): Use EXIT_SUCCESS, not 0, for clarity.Jim Meyering
2003-11-27Remove decls of strtod, strtol, strtoul; no longerJim Meyering
needed now that we assume C89. Include "c-strtod.h". (xstrtod): Call c_strtod, not strtod.
2003-11-05Cast NULL to `(char *)' in call to variadic function,Jim Meyering
parse_long_options, so that it works even on systems for which sizeof char* != sizeof int.
