[comp.sys.xerox] Lyric file manager glitch

fritzson@PRC.UNISYS.COM (Richard Fritzson) (11/25/87)

We've reported what I think is a bug in the file manager in Lyric. 

According to the reference manual, when you load a file which uses the
ADVISE command, the advice it installs REPLACES any earlier advice.
However, in Lyric, the advice appears to accumulate additively, as
though you were applying the advice programmatically. This means that
if you load a file twice, each advised function gets two copies of the advice.

If anyone else has noticed this and has some workaround, I'd be very
glad to hear about it.

Thanks.
