Message-Id: Date: Mon, 3 Aug 98 14:39:11 MET DST From: Michel de Ruiter To: dj AT delorie DOT com cc: djgpp-workers AT delorie DOT com Subject: Some notes about the 2.02 alpha... Precedence: bulk Dear DJ and workers, I have some comments and questions about the latest 2.02 alpha. As Eli already pointed out: we have both: src/libc/posix/regex/re_forma.7 (old) src/libc/posix/regex/re_format.7 (new) which also clash, with DOS' 8.3 SFNs. Should include/sys/sysmacros.h be mentioned in src/docs/kb/wc202.txi? Why (special reason?) is libc [efg]cvt\(buf\)?-documentation in src/libc/compat/stdlib/itoa.txh, instead of their respective *.txhs? Where is info/libm.inf? Shouldn't it be in djdev202.zip? Not related to this specific alpha: Why is bin/coff2exe.bat a batch-file, and not a symlink bin/coff2exe.exe to stubify? (I noticed that the Emacs building procedure uses `coff2exe' in the batch-file, which should otherwise be `call coff2exe' to be correct and compatible with v1. Eli?) bin/exe2coff.exe hates it when you give it an MZ-file (stubified COFF) *without* an extension. Maybe just document this. But where? Hope this helps. If not, so be it. :-) -- Groeten, Michel. http://www.cs.vu.nl/~mdruiter ____________ \ /====\ / "You know, Beavis, you need things that suck, \/ \/ to have things that are cool", Butt-Head.
