After many bug reports from SysV users, we have finally got a version of
Clam that works under BSD, SysV, and Minix. Hooray! At last a portable
shell.
The following patches fix a bug with hashing, add a new command line option
`ESC-^P', and generally allow Clam to compile under SysV.
Unfortunately we don't have access to a SysV machine here, so we hope the
patches will work - I'm sure you'll let us know if it doesn't :-)
I'm particularly interested to find out how many people use Clam, especially
under Minix. I would really like to see Clam get into the next release of
Minix, like kermit & Elle (i.e binary only, sources available from archive
sites). Any feelings on this?
**** N.B **** My email address will change tomorrow, as I have taken a
job at another site, so please don't email to me, try callum at
callum@gara.une.oz@murtoa.oz.au
Finally, I've removed crc from this machine, so below is a word-count
of the Clam files.
Cheers,
Warren Toomey & Callum Gibson.

I've had trouble applying the final set of patches to clam for: Makefiledif builtin1.cdif comlined.cdif meta.cdif READMEdif clex.cdif main.cdif I applied all the other diffs with no problems (my wc match the posted numbers). I'm running patch: $Header: patch.c,v 2.0 86/09/17 15:37:32 lwall Exp $ Patch level: 0 on a sun386i. Patch says things like: mlsun% patch <main.cdif Hmm...

This may account for some of the problems. Can you FTP to get a current patch? Thos Sumner Internet: thos@cca.ucsf.edu (The I.G.)
