#N:ea:12000003:000:852 ea!mwm Jul 25 21:55:00 1984 I know this isn't the "correct" place to post this, but I can't think of a better one to reach the people who need to see it. If you have a better one, *send me mail*. On to the point. In the file xlfio.c, which was in part 2 of the xlisp code, near the end of the function xlfgets (which is near the end of the file), the line: strcat(buf); should read: strcat(str->n_str, buf); Caveat: I did not verify that this was a bug, but it sure looks like one. Lint complained about it, so I changed it to what it "obviously" should be. The new version *does* work. Request: Should someone get this code working on a "broken" C compiler (one with pointers longer than ints), please get in contact with me. I want such a version. Conversely, if you want such a beast, let me know, and I'll tell you if I finish my port or here from someone else. <mike

While attempting to port XLisp to our Pyramid, I encountered an illegal
instruction in a longjmp from routine xlabort when I typed in an unknown
function. This was due to the fact that XLisp declares it's jump buffer
to be char[6], which appears to work ok on the VAX. On the Pyramid however,
it does not. I redeclared it to be of type jmp_buf as defined in
/usr/include/setjmp.h. Diffs of xlisp.c follow. They may be off by a few
lines due to RCS header info which I have added.
