1New features with AN-2011-04-22: 2 3This is the first localization step for the schily source consolidation. Many 4programs now (hopefully) call gettext() for all strings that need localization. 5 6- The next step will include dgettext() calls for the libraries and the 7 missing programs 8 9- The following step will include the extracted strings 10 11- The last step will include German translations and install support 12 for the resulting binary message object files. 13 14----------> Please test and report compilation problems! <--------- 15 16***** NOTE: As mentioned since 2004, frontends to the tools should ***** 17***** call all programs in the "C" locale ***** 18***** by e.g. calling: LC_ALL=C cdrecord .... ***** 19***** unless these frontends support localized strings ***** 20***** used by the cdrtools with NLS support. ***** 21 22 23- Disable Simple suffix rules and Sufffix rules in smake to speedup builds 24 25- Added a comment in RULES/rules.rdi that this rule is no longer needed. 26 Use RULES/rules.dir in all cases. 27 28- Star adds a new option -lzip and automated support to recognize lzip 29 compressed archives. 30 Thanks to markk@clara.co.uk 31 32- star now accepts a command like: 33 34 star -c -onull -find . -ls 35 36 as there is no archive output to stdout that could mix with the -ls 37 output 38 39- libfind no longer exits the process in treewalk() in case that 40 the path strings could not be allocated. 41 42- libfind::walkclose() now free()s the internal data structures 43 in case of a user that does not call treewalk() (e.g. star -x) 44 45- Avoid some gcc warnings for patch 46 47- Avoid some gcc warnings for hdump/od 48 49- SCCS "val" now supports directory type command line arguments that 50 result in scanning the related directory for s. files. 51 52- SCCS "val" now gives better debug messages with val -T, including line 53 numbers for the s. file. 54 55- SCCS "sccs" now permits -R together with the val subcommand. 56 57- SCCS "sccs" now correctly deals with long path names (> 64 chars) when 58 in -R mode 59 60- The diff command (as used by SCCS) now supports the -N option. 61 62- The sccsfile.4 man page now correclty mentions the ^Ahddddd checksum line. 63 64- patch(1) no longer calls mkdir(1) but mkdir(2) 65 66- Some forgotten variables in patch(1) are now off_t for large file compliance. 67 68Author: 69 70Joerg Schilling 71D-13353 Berlin 72Germany 73 74Email: joerg@schily.isdn.cs.tu-berlin.de, js@cs.tu-berlin.de 75 joerg.schilling@fokus.fraunhofer.de 76 77Please mail bugs and suggestions to me. 78
