Subject:	ANNOUNCE: DJGPP port of GNU ed 1.13 uploaded.
Reply-To:	djgpp AT delorie DOT com

This is a port of GNU ed 1.13 to MSDOS/DJGPP.

   GNU ed is a line-oriented text editor. It is used to create, display,
   modify and otherwise manipulate text files, both interactively and via
   shell scripts. A restricted version of ed, red, can only edit files in
   the current directory and cannot execute shell commands.


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

   All the changes done to the original distribution are documented in the
   diffs file and located together with all the files needed to configure
   the package (config.bat, config.sed, config.site, etc.) in the /djgpp subdir.
   The DJGPP specific functionality of this port is the same than the previous
   port.  This port does not support dos-style (backslash) file names in the ed
   scripts because the backslash character is used as the escape character by
   ed.  This is well known from the old port too.
   For DJGPP specific issues please read carefully the /djgpp/readme file,
   especially the section `Known bugsŽ.  Please note that all test concerning
   piping will fail.  There is no way to solve this issue.


   User visible changes (from NEWS):

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

Changes in version 1.13:

A memory leak and a resource leak (file not closed on error) have been
fixed. (Both issues were reported by Cédric Picard).

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




   If you want to recompile the package, run the command:
     make
   Install the products running the command:
     make install
   It should be noted that the test suite in this package does not work.
   As usual I have configured and produced the binaries using stock djdev203.

   If you want to reconfigure and recompile from scratch run the commands:
     make distclean
     djgpp\config
     make
     make install
   These command sequence will produce and install the binaries, info docs and
   unformated man pages in the djgpp installation tree defined by /den/env/DJDIR



   The port has been compiled using djdev205 and consists of the usual three
   packages that can be downloaded from ftp.delorie.com and mirrors as (timestamp 2016-03-09):

     ed 1.13 binary, info and man format documentation:
     ftp://ftp.delorie.com/pub/djgpp/current/v2gnu/ed-113b.zip

     ed 1.13 dvi, html, ps and pdf format documentation:

   Send ed specific bug reports to <bug-ed AT gnu DOT org>.
   Send suggestions and bug reports concerning the DJGPP port
   to comp.os.msdos.djgpp or <djgpp AT delorie DOT com>.
   If you are not sure if the failure is really a ed failure
   or a djgpp specific failure, report it here and *not* to
   <bug-ed AT gnu DOT org>.

Enjoy.
