Patch available for 3.0.6-pre-3

Patch available for 3.0.6-pre-3

[Bart Schaefer]

I've made up another pre-patch for 3.0.6, which carries the version number
3.0.6-pre-3.  The set is now:
        ftp://ftp.brasslantern.com/pub/zsh/zsh-3.0.5-3.0.6-pre-0.diff
        ftp://ftp.brasslantern.com/pub/zsh/zsh-3.0.6-pre-0-pre-1.diff
        ftp://ftp.brasslantern.com/pub/zsh/zsh-3.0.6-pre-1-pre-2.diff
        ftp://ftp.brasslantern.com/pub/zsh/zsh-3.0.6-pre-2-pre-3.diff

Remember that after applying patches to 3.0.5, you must "touch stamp-h.in"
before running configure to prevent make from attempting to rerun autoconf
and autoheader.

Checksums on the latest diff:

(BSD)  23656    29
(SYSV) 5822 58 zsh-3.0.6-pre-2-pre-3.diff

This patch is much smaller than the others, and includes bugfixes only.
Except for the several items noted below, I believe the code to be ready
for release as 3.0.6.  Things that still need to be addressed:

* I haven't done anything with Greg Badros's color completion patches;
  I was in the middle of working on this when my disk was trashed and
  I lost it all.  Greg, if you could redo your patch against -pre-3 it
  would be of help to me.

* I haven't put in Wayne Davison's history changes (6236), and I must
  confess I'm inclined not to, except for the bug fixes.  I'm also not
  sure what state it was all left in after the on-list discussion with
  PWS.  Wayne, if you could redo your patch against -pre-3 it'd help.

* I have yet to assess the whole string of articles on pipelines and
  tty process groups (6240, 6257, 6258, 6285, 6302) for applicability
  to 3.0.6.

* I'm waiting for opinions (particularly PWS's) on whether to put in the
  parameter substitution change from 6335.

Here are the new ChangeLog entries since -pre-2:

+ 
+ 1999-05-31 03:31  Bart Schaefer <schaefer@zsh.org>
+ 
+ 	* Src/zle_tricky.c: Fix display bug when listing completion

+ 
+ 1999-05-03 23:53  Bart Schaefer <schaefer@zsh.org>
+

(BTW, all those times are GMT, which is how CVS stores dates.  I didn't
really do quite that much work between 3 and 7 AM.)

I tried the first one of my patches with 3.0.6-pre2 (after applying
Peter's patches) and it worked there (and fixed the bug). I can't
remember if I tested my second patch, though.
