| | The dash(1) in Debian stable does not support "set +o" in the manner
specified by SUSv3:
|+o
|    Write the current option settings to standard output in a format
|    that is suitable for reinput to the shell as commands that
|    achieve the same options settings.
(citation from
http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/utilities/set.html)
Instead, dash's "set +o" prints the shell's options in a
human-readable format.
Here is a simple test program that exercises this feature; it works as
I believe is required under bash, but not under dash.
  # Save the shell's options
  set +o > /tmp/settings-commands
  set -o | sort > /tmp/settings-before
  # Change some options.
  set -v
  set -f
  set -x
  set +o emacs
  set -o vi
  # Try to restore our options.
  . /tmp/settings-commands
  set -o | sort > /tmp/settings-after
  # Compare.
  diff /tmp/settings-before /tmp/settings-after
I believe the following small patch adds this feature to dash, and
documents it in the manual page:

| | Document that in a for loop 'in word ...' is optional, and if omitted,
'in "$@"' is used.
Lars Wilke noticed this, and reported through

| | Have the man page explicitely state how the test builtin behaves on
-nt and -ot options if file2 does not exist.  The case where file1
does not exist was already documented properly.

| | This change updates the BSD licence to the three-clause version since
NetBSD has already done so.  This makes dash GPL-compatible.
It also adds Christos Zoulas (NetBSD ash maintainer) to the COPYING file.
I've added "copyright by Herbert Xu" to most files.
Finally all CVS IDs and inclusion of sys/cdefs.h have been removed.
The latter is needed for support of klibc. |
