I got some mail which indicates that I had to mix-up something
with system() in dLibs and I simply do not know on which side my
computer has a keyboard. Which is entirely possible...
It also could be some mishap in a beautiful word of "standard"
shells on ST. (Who needs a shell on WIMP computer anyway, right?). I
only know right now that I had some problems, which were rather easy
to repair. I will investigate a matter further and will send mail to
persons directly involved, leaving to them decision if to distribute
that further.
John Stanley informs me that list of bugs - at least for dLibs -
exists and Dale Schumacher, the author, maintains it. One can alse
send reports to John Stanley <dynasoft!john@stag.UUCP>. It is good to
know, since in the past I tried to write to Dale Schumacher, and I do
not think that he ever received my mail. One humble proposition,
though. If such list(s) exist(s) would be possible, from time to
time, not very frequently, to publish it/their contents. This would
prevent rediscovering the same bug over and over again and saved a
substantial amount of hair teared over perfectly healthy programs
which do not want to work.
Regards, and many thanks to all people
involved directly and indirectly in all
this great projects - dLibs, Sozobon, Gemfast, et al.
We love your bugs ;-) (clean code even more)
