Reply-To: Gert-Jan.Vons@ocegr.fr Priority: normal X-Mailer: Pegasus Mail for Win32 (v2.53) Hello all, good to see this list is still alive, it's the only place where I encounter other rc users :) A couple of things: - Concerning Byron's offer to get 1.5 out of the door, I can help testing under SCO Openserver, FreeBSD 2.1.x, Solaris 1 and 2. I'd sure like to have a single rc package, without the need to grab different patches from various sources. An autoconf script would be nice as well, shouldn't be too difficult. - Also, there have been some mails recently regarding rc and readline. Some time ago, I wrote a readline replacement that does cmdline editing/history, filename completion, etcetera. It is call-compatible with readline() from an rc point of view, but smaller and doesn't exhibit these signal handling problems (I hope, it's a bug otherwise :) I can't put it up for ftp unfortunately, but can mail it if someone is interested. - Last but not least: for my work, I'll be moving from UNIX to Windows NT. Does anyone know about an rc version for NT ? Microsoft has some POSIX.1 support, but it's hardly worth mentioning. Maybe someone tried NutCracker or a similar product ? Gert-Jan PS: Byron, good luck with your studies in Utrecht. I went to school there and graduated from the RUU, not a bad place to live&work :-)
