From: Richard Conn <RCONN@Simtel20.ARPA> FYI, pass one is now complete on the bug fixes. All bugs reported in the ZCPR3 newsletters have been addressed and (so the test group feels at this time) corrected. We are planning to go thru a lot of really extensive testing before the release of the "bug disk", and I am sending this message to let you know that things are happening in this area. The bugs reported in the ZCPR3 tools have shown themselves in the variety of different installations that people have made of ZCPR3. I feel that this should be emphasized -- many of the bugs may never be observed by many of you because of the nature of your installation. The newsletters should serve to make you aware that you MAY see these bugs, and you should be aware of the potential of encountering them. One non-bug which I will work on soon is a revision of ZEX. The new ZEX will be able to be installed like any other tool, and the involved reassembly process will be eliminated. ZEX is so powerful and fundamental to ZCPR3 that I feel that any stumbling block placed in the way of its use, such as its involved installation with a CERTAIN, SPECIFIC version of ZSID, should be removed.
