There are about 43 open() calls which I've updated with the O_TEXT option. Having all those ifdef's seemed rather ugly (makes the code hard to look at, expectially when they are within a few lines of each other) so I took a more "elegent" approach, though you may want to revise it if it doesn't meet your style requirements :) > > I'm aware of O_TEXT and I thought I'd changed all of the places where > > files are opened already, but I just checked my patches and those changes > > are gone!

Yep, I'm experimenting with this right now. As it stands, tests which print out to a file and then cat it back in (currently A04redirect and E01options) produce a diff, but don't otherwise seem to have any problems. > Oliver -- Peter A.
