[net.micro.mac] Bugs in SUMacC

guido@boring.UUCP (09/09/85)

I just stumbled over a bug in one of the SUMacC header files which I
thought I would share to the world.  I also include another minor typo,
and have a general question:  is there some common knowledge about bugs
and fixes in SUMacC?  Does SUMEX distribute a newer version than 2.0
(11/84) that I've got?

Here are the bugs I've found:

1) In "osintf.h", the struct definition for AppFile is wrong.  It declares
   the file name to be 1 character long.  This should be 256 (if you are
   going to call GetAppFiles, which is the only use for AppFile, you'll have
   to declare a variable of type AppFile, and you need to reserve the space
   for the file name).

2) In the same file, in the structure for VolumeParam, ioVAlBlkSiz is
   misspelled as ioVAlBLkSiz (upper case A in VAl and L in BLk).
