X
X Andrew Sharpe (drivax!sharpe) pointed out a bug in the
X fdate program that I posted a week or so ago. Its amazing
X how bugs infest programs the day that they're posted.
X (Well, not really, this one has been there hibernating
X for ever).
X
X This is a sh archive, unpack it & you'll get 3 files,
X BUG (this file), fdate.c.ed, and fdate.c.diffs. Fdate.c.ed
X is an ed script (diff -e output) that you can run
X as
X ed - fdate.c <fdate.c.ed
X if you haven't changed fdate.c from its distribution form.
X
X Fdate.c.diffs is diff -c output, for those who like to
X look, and those who have changed it.
X
X For those few of you who care, the problem this fixes relates
X to using the converter-indicator character ('%') without
X a following conversion character (or with an illegal
X conversion character).
