*** REPLACE THIS LINE WITH YOUR BUG *** Here is a quick fix for an annoying problem a friend and I found: In module send.c, the declaration of 'shrtname' is inadequate. It tends to scribble onto fname[]. Seems the strcpy() blows away past shrtname[4]. Making shrtname be shrtname[6] seems to fix the problem. Remember, strcpy ALWAYS copies the '\0', so the strcpy(shrtname, &(shrtname[3])); probably copies 3 bytes 99% of the time. I do not think anyone has 4 character ttynames anymore, so if shrtname originally is "tty01" (Keep in mind, it is not necessarily '\0' terminated!), then the strcpy() will muck it up to shrtname[5] (at least, depending on where a '\0' happens to be AFTER shrtname[4]!)
