Subject: ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GNU bool 0.2.2 uploaded.
Reply-To: djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is a port of GNU bool 0.2.2 to MSDOS/DJGPP.


   GNU Bool is a utility for finding files that match a boolean expression.

   The boolean operators supported are AND, OR and NOT.  Also supported is
   the NEAR operator for locating two expressions within a short distance
   from each other.



   DJGPP specific changes.
   =======================

   - Minor changes needed to make the testsuite run from a different partition
     than where the sources are located.

   - The port has been tested by using it.  I have used them only on WinXP.
     It has worked flawlessly.  I do not konw if this will ever be the case on
     FreeDOS.  I have never used/tested them in that environment.

   - This port has been configured using DJGPP 2.05.  It has been configured
     to be build in the /_build directory under the top srcdir.

   - 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 gcc520 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 directory.  If for some reason it does not work for you, delete its
   contents and configure from scratch again.

   For further information about GNU bool please read the info docs and NEWS file.



   This is an verbatim extract of the NEWS file:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Version 0.2.2:

   - Updated license to GPLv3.
   - New support for gnulib for portability.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------




   The port consists of the usual two packages produced using djdev205
   that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (time stamp 2015-12-19):

     bool 0.2.2 binaries and man format documentation:

     bool 0.2.2 source:
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/bool022s.zip



   Send bool specific bug reports to <bug-bool AT gnu DOT org>.
   Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port to
   comp.os.msdos.djgpp or <djgpp AT delorie DOT com>.

Enjoy.
