7/18/02 5.38.0 At request of Hugh Sasse <hgs@dmu.ac.uk> added md5 hash of gz
to homepage.
Dave Schooler <dave@stashtea.com> reported that send -s wasn't
handling certains chars correctly. Turned out to be those
that had multibyte UTF8 reps. send -s was just pumping out
hunks of bytes without regard to UTF boundaries and evidentally
Tcl's I/O engine thought that it should translate a partial
UTF8 character into, uh, something else.
Curt Shroeder <c.schroeder@computer.org> fixed bug in rftp - a
a filename looked enough like a 3-digit diagnostic that the
script got confused.
4/16/02 5.37.2 Multixterm couldn't find man page all the time.
4/16/02 5.37.1 Made multixterm handle user-supplied args.
4/15/02 5.37.0 Added multixterm to example directory.
4/8/02 5.36.1 Backed out CONST qualifiers. Too much trouble with older
versions of Tcl. I'll let someone else worry about them.
4/8/02 5.36.0 Made first cut at multixterm, a replacement for crlogin.
Fixed bug in background handler. If an action waited on the
same spawn id, esPtr would become invalidated.
Ryan Schmidt <rschmidt@mac.com> noted configure didn't
recognize MacOS X. Downloaded new config.guess.
Andreas Kupries <andreask@activestate.com> provided CONST
patches to accomodate Tcl changes per TIP 27.
2/25/02 5.35.0 Joe Eggleston <joe@arbor.net> noted bug in full_buffer test.
The test hadn't been I18'd properly and was testing chars
instead of bytes. Also fixed diagnostics so it printed when
it was testing full buffer even if there wasn't one.
2/7/02 5.34.1 Bruce Hartweg <brhartweg@bigfoot.com> noted that direct spawn
ids were not being tested so something like "expect -i exp9999"
would dump core. Evidentally a bug from the 5.31 transition.
12/20/01 5.34.0 Don Porter <don.porter@nist.gov> provided package-related
fixes for test suite.
Brian Theado <brian.theado@usa.net> noted that interact's -re
support broke when offsets kicked in. Turned out that the
regexp engine supports them during execution but the results
are delivered RELATIVE to the offset. (I suspect this was done
due to expediency.)
Changes from 5.32.1 (the last pkgsrc version):
10/1/01 5.33.0 <mark@doradosoftware.com> found that expect's diagnostics
didn't include the "no" after testing for a full buffer.
Hemang Lavana <hlavana@cisco.com> noted that "debug" (Dbg_On)
calls didn't always force the debugger into step mode.
Martin Kammerhofer <dada@sbox.tugraz.at> noted that the man
page neglected to document interpreter -eof.
Chris Clare <clarec@nortelnetworks.com> provided fix for
multiple decl in C lib.
Sheng Wang <wangs@sh.bel.alcatel.be> found interact's
can-match code had broken. It was missing the special hook
that Henry had added just for this purpose. How strange.
Dieter Fiebelkorn <dieter@fiebelkorn.net> requested addition
to config.guess for Power*Macintosh:Darwin for MacOSX.
Aside - to download latest config.guess:
cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@subversions.gnu.org:/cvs checkout \
config
Added pipeline example to unbuffer man page.
8/4/00 5.32.2 Allen J. Newton <anewton@alturia.fleet.org> provided code for
generating passwords with special characters in mkpasswd.
Brent Welch <welch@ajubasolutions.com> changed the fix1line
install script so that "autoexpect" and other scripts that
get installed into the platform-independent bin directory
generically invoke "expect" from the users PATH instead
of hardwiring the platform-specific expect pathname.
