X-Authentication-Warning: delorie.com: mail set sender to djgpp-bounces using -f Message-Id: <201508011610.t71GAkOU001204@delorie.com> Date: Sat, 01 Aug 2015 17:50:09 +0200 From: "Juan Manuel Guerrero (juan DOT guerrero AT gmx DOT de) [via djgpp-announce AT delorie DOT com]" To: djgpp-announce AT delorie DOT com Subject: ANNOUNCE: Release 3 of the DJGPP port of mktemp 1.7 uploaded (DJGPP 2.05 only). Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-15; format=flowed Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com This is a port of mktemp 1.7 to MSDOS/DJGPP. mktemp is a simple utility designed to make temporary file handling in shells scripts be safe and simple. It is compatible with the one that comes with coreutils. Because a port of GNU coreutils is not available but certain test suites require a mktemp program to create their temporary output files this tool has been ported. DJGPP specific changes. ======================= - There are no DJGPP specific user visible changes. - This is the first port that has been compiled using djdev205. Starting with this port version I will no longer support neither djdev204 nor djdev203. - The port has been tested by using it. I have used them only on WinXP. It has worked flawlessly. I do not kwon if this will ever be the case on FreeDOS. I have never used/tested them in that environment. - The port has been configured and compiled on WinXP SP3. There is no guarantee that this may be possible with any other DOS-like OS. Due to the use of long file names it will not be possible to configure and compile without LFN support. The port has been compiled using gcc510 and bnu225br2. As usual, all djgpp specific files (diffs, README files, etc.) are stored in the /djgpp directory. The sources have been configured to be build in the /_build.205 directory. If for some reason it does not work for you, delete it contents and configure from scratch again. For further information about mktemp please read the info docs and NEWS file. The port consists of the usual two packages produced using djdev205 that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (time stamp 2015-08-01): Mktemp 1.7 binary and man format documentation: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/mktmp17br3.zip Mktemp 1.7 source: ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/beta/v2tk/mktmp17sr3.zip Send mktemp specific bug reports to .
