From 83a7565d3c3a74cc2df831e86f9fd3f979a3f7aa Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Philipp Weis Date: Sun, 28 Nov 2010 19:40:17 +0800 Subject: [MAN] Document optional open parenthesis for case patterns While inspecting some dash scripts on my system, I was surprised to see that some of them use an open parenthesis at the beginning of case patterns while that's not mentioned in the manpage. Dash currently is fine with and without that parenthesis (parser.c:413). The attached patch documents this feature.

2018-07-24Print time_t with %jd in metaJune McEnroe
On 32-bit NetBSD, time_t is 'long long int' rather than 'long int'. This works everywhere.
2018-07-24Do not set non-blocking on client socketsJune McEnroe
On NetBSD, the send buffer seems to only be 4096 bytes, so sending SERVER_TILE would get cut short. Just not setting non-blocking allows messages to properly get through and *seems* to have no adverse effect.
2018-07-24Use EV_SETJune McEnroe
NetBSD kevent.udata is uintptr_t rather than void * and the macro does the cast.
2018-07-24Link with -lcursesJune McEnroe
NetBSD has its own curses implementation and doesn't ship ncurses.
2018-07-23Fix NaNs in serverMapJune McEnroe
When there are very few touched tiles, even if they are recent, they will appear blue, because timeMin is also recent. I should figure out how to fix that.

Darwin's lack of separation strikes again.

2018-05-13Fix ncurses color pair numberingJune McEnroe
This was dumb. Of course all the color pairs fit in 64, but I was shifting too much because my own representation includes the bright bit.

2017-10-03Simplify Makefile with pattern ruleJune McEnroe
Insert rant about how GNU make handles the .c rule with extra dependencies. Also I don't care that everything links curses now.

2017-09-03Relicense AGPLJune McEnroe
I know it's already published under a permissive license in what is probably its final form, but I want to license it AGPL anyway on principle following some conversations I had about open source, corporations and copyleft.
2017-09-01Revert "Add client readOnly mode"June McEnroe
This reverts commit 9a6c9c91c8092603b914cc0b3085d059e162ca29.
2017-09-01Remove clientRemove call from clientCastJune McEnroe
If an error occurs on a client socket during a broadcast, that client will show up in the kqueue loop with EV_EOF and get removed that way. Tested by sending SIGKILL to a client and watching its cursor disappear.
2017-09-01Add client readOnly modeJune McEnroe
2017-08-31Clean up merge toolJune McEnroe
Choose the version with the most recent access if the modify times are the same.
2017-08-31Choose B for tiles with equal modify timesJune McEnroe
This way newer access counts and times will be preserved.

Hopefully I won't have to use it ever again.
