I have fixed the problem with gnu_diff so that RCS works with files created with edt and eve. I even asked one of my co-workers, Rich Guendelsberger, to beta test rcs for me. The fix was in io.c in slurp(). I had to change 2 read()'s to fread()'s to make slurp() work with edt and eve files. I have also sent the fix to mark.berryman@mvb.saic.com. He and his company are keeping the spring90 and fall90 decus tape ONLINE. Mark will compile and link gnu_diff and put it with the rest of rcs on his machine. This should be ready in a day or two or three. I also have the kind assistance of UVA. They will keep the source only on the unix machine ftp.virginia.edu for anonymous.ftp. /pub/vms is the location. The files are: -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 107520 Mar 18 08:27 diff.arc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 203776 Mar 18 08:27 rcs.arc -rw-r--r-- 1 root other 72192 Mar 18 08:27 rcsdoc.arc Notice that these are ARC files. SEA ARC is available for vms, ms-dos and AT&T sys v. This seemed a reasonable choice for storing vms C code on a unix machine. rich gregory rtg2t@krebs.acc.virginia.edu
