I sent Larry an emulation of ftruncate(2) for System V release 3 using fcntl(). I forgot to tell him I got the code from an article in comp.unix.questions some time ago. Unfortunately, I did not save the real author's name, so Larry assumed it was me. If the real author would step forward, this mistake can be corrected in patch #29. -- Pim Zandbergen domain : pim@cti-software.nl CTI Software BV uucp : uunet!mcsun!hp4nl!ctisbv!pim Laan Copes van Cattenburch 70 phone : +31 70 3542302 2585 GD The Hague, The Netherlands fax : +31 70 3512837
