2002-11-06 Jim Meyering * Version 4.5.4. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add printf-hex. * tests/misc/printf: Be careful to test the code in this package, not the shell built-in function. * src/printf.c (print_esc): A hexadecimal escape sequence has at most two hex. digits, not three. Reported by Padraig Brady. * tests/misc/printf-hex: New file/test, for the above fix. 2002-10-07 Paul Eggert Add support for locale-specific size indications (e.g., thousands-separators) and for explicit size suffixes on output. * doc/coreutils.texi (Block size): Say that: This affects display format as well as block size. Fractional block counts are rounded up. ls file size blocksize defaults to 1. A block size spec preceded by ' generates thousands separators. A suffix without a preceding integer generates suffixes. (tail invocation): 32k -> 32 KiB. (What information is listed): ls -h is now equivalent to ls --block-size=human, and ls -H is now equivalent to ls --block-size=si. Displayed file size is now always affected by --block-size. * lib/inttostr.c, lib/inttostr.h, lib/imaxtostr.c, lib/offtostr.c, lib/umaxtostr.c: New files, taken from GNU tar. * lib/Makefile.am (libfetish_a_SOURCES): Add imaxtostr.c, offtostr.c, umaxtostr.c. (EXTRA_DIST): Add inttostr.c. * lib/human.c, lib/human.h: Rewrite to support locale-specific notations like thousands separators. Specify what includer of include.h must include beforehand. (human_group_digits, human_suppress_point_zero, human_autoscale, human_base_1024, human_SI, human_B): New enum values. (human_readable): Rename from human_readable_inexact; put the options before the sizes. All uses changed. The old human_readable function has been removed; use inttostr.h instead. (human_options): Renamed from human_block_size, with new signature that allows block sizes up to UINTMAX_MAX. All callers changed. * m4/prereq.m4 (jm_PREREQ_HUMAN): Check for locale.h, localeconv, AC_HEADER_STDBOOL. No need to check for limits.h since it's in freestanding C89. No need to check for stdlib.h or string.h since autoconf does this now. * src/cksum.c (cksum): Use primitives from inttostr.h, not human.h, to print large numbers simply. * src/csplit.c (handle_line_error, parse_patterns): Likewise. * src/dd.c (print_stats, main): Likewise. * src/df.c (print_header): Likewise. * src/factor.c (print_factors): Likewise. * src/ls.c (print_long_format, print_file_name_and_frills): Likewise. * src/shred.c (dopass): Likewise. * src/sort.c (checkfp): Likewise. * src/sum.c (bsd_sum_file, sysv_sym_file): Likewise. * src/tail.c (xlseek): Likewise. * src/wc.c (write_counts, wc): Likewise. * src/df.c (human_output_opts): New var. (output_block_size): Now uintmax_t, not int, to handle larger block sizes. All uses changed. * src/du.c: Likewise. * src/ls.c: Likewise. * src/df.c (print_header): In the header line, prefer SI to human representation if it's shorter; if neither is shorter, try to intuit what the user would prefer. * src/expr.c (inttostr): Remove; use new imaxtostr library function instead. * src/ls.c (file_output_block_size): New var, to distinguish file sizes from other sizes. (decode_switches): Set it. * src/shred.c (OUTPUT_BLOCK_SIZE): remove. (dopass): When printing progress, use floor for what has been done so far (since we should be conservative there), and ceiling for what needs to be done (since that's what other programs use). 2002-10-19 Jim Meyering * src/pinky.c (print_heading): Align TTY and Name headings. Reported by Karl Eichwalder. 2002-10-18 Jim Meyering * src/split.c (cwrite): Change type of `bytes' parameter to size_t Remove now-useless cast. (stdread): Remove function. (bytes_split): Use size_t instead of int. Use safe_read, not stdread. (lines_split): Likewise. Use memchr rather than a `while' loop. (line_bytes_split): Use size_t instead of int. Use safe_read, not stdread. (main): Add some FIXME comments to remind me to remove casts. * src/system.h (ST_BLKSIZE): Correct comment describing how to reproduce HPUX-11 cat failure. From Petter Reinholdtsen. 2002-10-17 Jim Meyering Fix a problem that could make e.g., `cat' misbehave on systems which give invalid (unreasonably large) values for stat.st_blksize. * src/system.h (ST_BLKSIZE): Ensure that the result is in [1..4MB]. Reported by Petter Reinholdtsen. 2002-10-14 Jim Meyering Specifying a printf conversion specifer as nl's separator string could cause nl to segfault. * src/nl.c (build_print_fmt): Don't include separator string in the printf format; it might contain `%'. Use a better bound on the length of the print_fmt buffer. (print_lineno): Print the separator here instead. Reported by Doug Coleman. * tests/misc/nl: New file/tests, including a test for the above. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add nl. * tests/misc/split-l: New test, to make sure `split --lines=N' works. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add split-l. 2002-10-13 Jim Meyering * Version 4.5.3. * src/du.c (usage): Tweak description of --dereference-args/-D. * src/du.c (count_entry): Also save cwd when dereferencing (via --dereference-args, -D) a command-line argument. Reported by Michal Svec. Based on a patch by Andreas Schwab. * src/Makefile.am (../AUTHORS): New target/rule. 2002-10-12 Jim Meyering * src/paste.c (paste_parallel): Declare local, `delims_saved', to be of type size_t, since that's the way it's used and avoids a warning. * src/csplit.c (struct cstring) [len]: Declare to be unsigned int, since that's how it's always used and avoids a new warning from gcc. (read_input): Adapt to new safe_read ABI. * src/cut.c (cut_fields): Add a temporary size_t variable, n_bytes, to avoid warnings. * src/pinky.c (print_long_entry): fread returns size_t. Declare local `bytes' accordingly, to avoid warning. tail -c +N would perform an extra read after encountering EOF [this change is analogous (bytes vs. lines) to the one of 2002-01-27] * src/tail.c (start_bytes): Detect EOF, inform caller. (tail_bytes): Upon EOF in start_bytes, return immediately. (file_lines): Reorganize to use memrchr rather than an explicit loop. Adapt to new safe_read ABI. 2002-10-11 Jim Meyering * tests/du/deref: New file/test, for the above fix. * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add deref. 2002-10-10 Jim Meyering * tests/ln/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add target-1. * tests/ln/target-1: New file/test, for the fix on 2002-10-08. 2002-10-09 Jim Meyering * tests/cp/backup-is-src: Ensure that certain environment variables are not set (e.g., SIMPLE_BACKUP_SUFFIX). Reported by Duncan Roe. * tests/tail-2/big-4gb: Mark this as an expensive test; it would consume 4GB of disk space on systems without support for sparse files. Fix a logic error that'd make it `cat err' even though dd didn't fail. * src/dircolors.hin (.jar): Fix typo: s/;3$/;31/. Patch by steven@magelico.net, forwarded by Michael Stone. * tests/ls/dired: Ensure that ls produces English messages. Patch by Alexey Vyskubov, forwarded by Michael Stone. 2002-10-08 Dmitry V. Levin * src/ln.c (main): Fix target_directory parsing when n_files == 1. 2002-10-08 Jim Meyering * tests/tail-2/big-4gb: Use double quotes around diagnostic. Fix syntax in test: use =, not ==. Reported by Bob Proulx. Change all the rest like this: grep -lR "testing framework'" .\ |xargs perl -pi -e 's/'\''(\$0: failure in testing framework)'\''/"$1"/' * src/sum.c (sysv_sum_file): Adapt to new safe_read ABI. * src/tr.c (squeeze_filter, read_and_delete, read_and_xlate): Likewise. * src/tac.c (save_stdin, tac_stdin_to_mem): Likewise. * src/wc.c (wc): Likewise. 2002-10-07 Paul Eggert * src/cat.c (cat): Don't advance the write pointer past the end of the write buffer. * src/sort.c (begfield, limfield): Likewise. 2002-10-07 Jim Meyering * src/cat.c (simple_cat, cat): Adapt to new safe_read ABI. * src/head.c (head_bytes, head_lines): Likewise. 2002-10-06 Jim Meyering * src/dd.c (scanargs): Ensure that specified block sizes (specified via ibs=N, obs=N, and bs=N) are no larger than SSIZE_MAX. (skip, dd_copy): Adapt to new safe_read ABI. * Makefile.maint (signatures): Define. (%.sig): New rule. (announcement): Depend on $(signatures). * Makefile.maint (announcement): Output all URLs for detached signatures, not just the last one from the previous loop. 2002-10-05 Jim Meyering * Version 4.5.2. * src/remove.c (remove_entry) [ROOT_CAN_UNLINK_DIRS]: With `rm -i DIR', don't recurse into directory, DIR. Prompted by a report from Leonardo Milano. * tests/rm/i-no-r: New file/test, for the above fix. * tests/rm/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add i-no-r. * tests/tail-2/big-4gb: New file/test, for the fix of 2002-09-27. * tests/tail-2/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add big-4gb. 2002-10-03 Jim Meyering * src/rm.c (AUTHORS): Mark translatable string with `N_ (...)'. * src/df.c (AUTHORS): Likewise. * src/du.c (AUTHORS): Likewise. * src/tail.c (AUTHORS): Likewise. * src/touch.c (AUTHORS): Likewise. 2002-10-02 Jim Meyering * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove `old'. (EXTRA_DIST): List the files in old/. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Remove old/* names. Suggestion from Akim Demaille. 2002-10-01 Jim Meyering * src/sys2.h (SSIZE_MAX): Define. 2002-09-30 Jim Meyering * src/csplit.c: Don't include stdlib.h here. It's already included via system.h. 2002-09-29 Jim Meyering * src/tr.c (find_bracketed_repeat): Rearrange pointer/integer expression to avoid bogus warning from gcc. * src/cat.c (simple_cat): Use a temporary to avoid bogus warnings. (cat): Declare insize and outsize to be of type size_t, not int. Rearrange pointer/integer expressions to avoid bogus warnings. (main): Declare insize and outsize to be of type size_t, not int. * src/tail.c (parse_options): Give a sensible diagnostic for an invalid byte or line count. Reported by Mikko Tuumanen. * src/touch.c (main): Split a long line. * tests/du/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add slink. * tests/du/slink: New test for system.h change of 2002-08-31. In move mode, always first try to rename. Before, upon failure to rename a directory, this code would never attempt to rename any other file in that directory, but would thenceforth always copy. On some systems (e.g., NetApp's OnTap-6.4), renaming a directory may fail with EXDEV, yet renaming files within that directory to a newly-created destination directory succeeds. * src/copy.c (copy_internal): Remove local, move_mode; use x->move_mode instead. Based on a patch from Tom Haynes. 2002-09-28 Jim Meyering * src/split.c (FAIL_ONLY_ONE_WAY): New macro. Factor out some duplication. (main): Use it. [case 'a']: Use strtoul rather than strtol to avoid compiler warnings. * src/sort.c (begfield, limfield): Rearrange comparisons to avoid compiler warnings. (fillbuf, keycompare): Cast literal `-1' to size_t in comparisons, to avoid compiler warnings. * src/shred.c (dopass): Use a uintmax_t temporary to avoid bogus compiler warnings. Fix things so `mkdir -p' can create very deep directories, e.g., mkdir -p $(perl -e 'print "a/" x 40000') now works. * src/mkdir.c (main): For --parents (-p), call make_path with the entire directory name, so we don't ever require that file operations like stat or chmod be performed on the entire command line argument. * makepath.c (make_path): Restore umask *before* creating the final component. 2002-09-27 Andreas Schwab * src/tail.c (tail_bytes): Change type of bytes_remaining to off_t to avoid overflow. Reported by Hans Lermen. 2002-09-26 Jim Meyering * src/install.c (get_ids): Use strtoul, not strtol. Remove some casts. 2002-09-25 Jim Meyering * src/test.c (eaccess): Change type of local `euid' from int to uid_t and add a cast, to avoid a warning about `signed and unsigned type in conditional expression'. 2002-09-22 Jim Meyering * src/rmdir.c: Include "dirname.h", for declaration of strip_trailing_slashes. * src/stat.c (PRIdMAX, PRIuMAX): Remove definitions. Now they're defined through system.h. * src/cp-hash.c, src/dd.c, src/df.c, src/du.c, src/ls.c, * src/stat.c, src/wc.c: Remove all inclusions of inttypes.h, since it's already included from sys2.h via system.h. * Use automake-1.6f. Regenerate dependent files. * src/Makefile.am (PERL): Remove duplicate definition. fmt's -s, -t, -c options didn't work properly for long lines. Since get_line may end up calling put_paragraph (for long lines), be sure to set global, `other_indent', before it is used there. * src/fmt.c (set_other_indent): New function, factored out of... (get_paragraph): ... here. Call it. (get_line): Call set_other_indent before calling flush_paragraph, which calls fmt_paragraph, which in turn calls put_paragraph, which uses other_indent. * tests/fmt/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add long-line. * tests/fmt/long-line: New file/test, for the above fix. 2002-09-21 Jim Meyering * src/od.c: No longer include deprecated . It was required solely for now-removed reference to BITSPERBYTE. * src/install.c: Likewise. Suggestion from Bruno Haible. 2002-09-06 Andreas Schwab `rmdir -p dir-specified-with-trailing-slash/' would fail. * src/rmdir.c (remove_parents): Strip trailing slashes. 2002-09-20 Jim Meyering * tests/rmdir/t-slash: New file/test, for the above fix. * tests/rmdir/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add t-slash. * Makefile.maint (announcement): Arrange to gpg-sign the message. Add a URL for each detached signature file. 2002-09-07 Bruno Haible * configure.ac: Add need-ngettext to AM_GNU_GETTEXT invocation. 2002-09-18 Jim Meyering `od -t x8' used the wrong (`l'-prefixed) printf format. Likewise for the o8 and u8 formats. * src/od.c (ISPEC_TO_FORMAT): Define macro. (decode_one_format): Use PRIdMAX, PRIoMAX, etc. for LONG_LONG. Reported by Arun Sharma. 2002-09-17 Jim Meyering * src/sys2.h (PRIdMAX, PRIoMAX, PRIuMAX, PRIxMAX): Define if necessary. From gettext's intl/loadmsgcat.c. * tests/od/x8: New file/test, for the above fix. * tests/od/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add x8. 2002-09-15 Jim Meyering * Use autoconf-2.54. Regenerate dependent files. * src/csplit.c (get_format_width): Add cast to avoid warning about `signed and unsigned type in conditional expression'. 2002-09-14 Jim Meyering * src/who.c (print_user): Change type of local to size_t to avoid warnings about `comparison between signed and unsigned'. * src/ptx.c (generate_all_output): Likewise. * src/dd.c (main, skip): Add casts to avoid warnings about `comparison between signed and unsigned'. * src/id.c (print_full_info, print_group_list): Add casts to avoid warnings about `signed and unsigned type in conditional expression'. * src/md5sum.c: Change type of global, digest_hex_bytes, to size_t to avoid warnings about `comparison between signed and unsigned'. (split_3): Change parameter names to be readable and add comment. Clean up the test for whether a line may be ignored. 2002-09-13 Jim Meyering * src/printf.c (main): Handle leading command line argument of `--'. Reported by Raul: DervishD * tests/misc/printf: New file: test for the above. * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add printf. * src/date.c (usage): Explain that %S's range of [0..60] is required -- rather than 0..59 -- to accommodate the occasional positive leap second. Reported by Richard Neill. 2002-09-12 Jim Meyering * src/Makefile.am (nanosec_libs): Define. (sleep_LDADD, tail_LDADD): Use it here. Factor nanosleep-related code into ../lib/xnanosleep.c. * src/sleep.c: Include xnanosleep.h. Factor out fenv.h-related code. (timespec_subtract): Remove function. (main): Remove code that deals with computing start and stop times as well as the loop around nanosleep. Now that's in xnanosleep.c. Allow S (in --sleep-interval=S) to be a floating point value. * src/tail.c: Include xnanosleep.h and xstrtod.h. Move declaration of global variable, sleep_interval, to ... (main): ...here. (usage): Update description of --sleep-interval option. (tail_forever): New parameter, sleep_interval. Update caller. Use xnanosleep, rather than sleep. (parse_options): New parameter, sleep_interval. Update caller. Use xstrtod, now that we accept floating point values. Prompted by a patch from Augey Mikus. 2002-09-06 Jim Meyering * src/remove.c (prompt): Change comment to give a better note to translators. From Michael Piefel. 2002-09-02 Jim Meyering * README: A good problem report/patch includes diffs against the most recent test release. * src/pathchk.c (NEED_PATHCONF_WRAPPER): Define. (pathconf_wrapper): Define only if NEED_PATHCONF_WRAPPER is set. * src/kill.c (print_table_row): Use an unsigned type for widths to avoid warning about comparison between signed and unsigned. (list_signals): Likewise. * src/od.c (skip): Add a cast to avoid warning about comparison between signed and unsigned. * src/install.c (get_ids): Likewise. Also rearrange range-checking comparisons to make them more readable. 2002-09-01 Jim Meyering * Version 4.5.1. 2002-08-31 Jim Meyering Symlinks were always reported as using 0 blocks. * src/system.h (ST_NBLOCKS): Don't depend on file type. This reverts the change of 2000-01-30. Based on a report and patch from Neil Brown via Michael Stone. This fixes Debian Bug#156358. * Most files: Change `exit (0)' to `exit (EXIT_SUCCESS)', `exit (1)' to `exit (EXIT_FAILURE)', and `usage (1)' to `usage (EXIT_FAILURE)'. * chgrp.c, chmod.c, chown.c, chroot.c, cp.c, date.c, dd.c, du.c, * hostname.c, id.c, install.c, ln.c, mkdir.c, mkfifo.c, mknod.c, * nice.c, pinky.c, printf.c, pwd.c, shred.c, sleep.c, stty.c, * su.c, tac-pipe.c, tail.c, tee.c, touch.c, uname.c, uptime.c, * users.c, who.c: Change `error (1, ...' to `error (EXIT_FAILURE, ...'. But don't change `error (0, ...' to `error (EXIT_SUCCESS, ...', since error never exits successfully. 2002-08-29 Jim Meyering * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Use closedir (not CLOSEDIR) when ignoring any return value. * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Detect and diagnose readdir failures. On some systems (at least EMC Celerra and Solaris5.8), this appears to be necessary. (is_empty_dir): Likewise. Also, always close directory handle. * src/ls.c (print_dir): Likewise. (print_dir): Rename local variable: reading -> dirp. Reported by Mike Coleman. 2002-08-28 Jim Meyering * src/remove.c (remove_cwd_entries): Use CLOSEDIR, not closedir. Give a diagnostic and fail if closedir fails. 2002-08-26 Jim Meyering * Makefile.am (THANKS-to-translators): New rule. (EXTRA_DIST): Add both THANKS-to-translators and THANKStt.in. * THANKStt.in: New file. * src/cat.c (close_stdout_wrapper): New, kludgey, function and file-scoped global. (main): Register it with atexit. Close STDOUT_FILENO, to avoid a problem when writing to /dev/audio on at least Solaris 2.7 and 2.8 systems. Reported by Shing-Shong Shei. 2002-08-25 Jim Meyering * src/cat.c (main): Close STDIN_FILENO rather than a literal `0'. * src/tac.c (main): Likewise. * src/tail.c (main): Likewise. * src/tee.c (main): Likewise. * src/tr.c (main): Likewise. * src/wc.c (main): Likewise. 2002-08-20 Jim Meyering * tests/mv/setup: Rewrite not to use `: ${VAR=not_set}' paradigm. 2002-08-10 Paul Eggert * src/nohup.sh: Don't use "exec --"; it's not portable and shouldn't be needed. 2002-08-09 Jim Meyering * src/pr.c (main): Don't ignore -COLUMN if it's the last option. (usage): Clarify help text for the -COLUMN option. Patch by Padraig Brady. * tests/pr/Test.pm [col-last]: New test for the above. * configure.ac: Start with version 4.5.1, chosen so that it's larger than the latest version numbers of the component packages. * man/Makefile.am (check-x-vs-1): Set and export PATH so we use programs in ../src. 2002-08-08 Jim Meyering * src/date.c: Guard inclusion of with `#if HAVE_LANGINFO_CODESET', not `#if HAVE_LANGINFO_H'. * src/sort.c: Likewise. Patch by GOTO Masanori. 2002-08-05 Paul Eggert Fix some minor time-related bugs with POSIX time arguments. Some valid time stamps were being rejected (notably -1, and time stamps before 1900 on 64-bit hosts). And some invalid time stamps were being accepted, e.g. September 31. * src/date.c (main): Adjust to posixtime signature change. * src/touch.c (main): Likewise. Remove unnecessary initialization. Use localtime, not posixtm, to warn about obsolete "touch". 2002-08-05 Jim Meyering * tests/misc/Makefile.am (TESTS): Add nice and pathchk1. 2002-08-04 Jim Meyering * src/Makefile.am (check-README): New target/rule. (check): Depend on it. * configure.ac (AC_CONFIG_FILES): Add old/Makefile and old/*/Makefile. 2002-08-03 Jim Meyering * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add old. * old/: New directory, containing legacy ChangeLog* and NEWS files from the fileutils, sh-utils, and textutils packages. * src/Makefile.am (AM_INSTALLCHECK_STD_OPTIONS_EXEMPT): Set to false. 2002-08-02 Paul Eggert * NEWS, doc/coreutils.texi: uniq now obeys LC_COLLATE. * src/uniq.c: Include hard-locale.h, xmemcoll.h. (hard_LC_COLLATE): New var. (different): Args are now char *, not const char *. Use xmemcoll instead of memcmp to compare lines, so that LC_COLLATE has effect. However, use memcmp if it is an easy locale. (check_file): Do not include newline in comparison, so that xmemcoll has a byte to stomp on temporarily. (main): Set hard_LC_COLLATE. 2002-07-29 Jim Meyering * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Remove djgpp, for now. 2002-07-08 Jim Meyering * src/Makefile.am (uninstall-local): Search for @GNU_PACKAGE@, rather than the hard-coded `sh-utils'. 2002-07-01 Jim Meyering * configure.ac: Merge the three files from fileutils, textutils, and sh-utils. * Makefile.am: Likewise. * src/Makefile.am: Likewise. Local Variables: version-control: never End:
