[net.sources.bugs] Software Tools in Turbo Pascal - bugs

tarvydas@utcsri.UUCP (Paul Tarvydas) (07/24/86)

When compiling this stuff on msdos, at least, it helps to make these
changes:

a) TOOLU.PAS: Getkbd
	if (kbdn=-2)
	   then
		begin
		readln;  <---- comment this line out
		kbdn:=0
		end

    The symptom, prior to making this fix, is that edit gets an eof
    from the keyboard routine, no matter what you've typed in.

b) TOOLU.PAS: Strname
	change "strname := '.PAS';"
	to "strname := '';"
    The symptom is that all files are assumed to be .PAS files and
    you can't edit any other type of file.
