Archive-name: unix/terminal/stdwin/1991-02-28 Archive: wuarchive.wustl.edu:/pub/stdwin0.9.5.tar.Z [128.252.135.4] Original-posting-by: guido@cwi.nl (Guido van Rossum) Original-subject: STDWIN official patch # 5 Reposted-by: emv@ox.com (Edward Vielmetti) Archive-name: stdwin0.9/patch05 This is STDWIN official patch # 5. You haven't missed patches 1-4 or the original posting of STDWIN in alt.sources: it was only installed on wuarchive.wustl.edu (in pub), at patchlevel 4 (the patchlevel is the third digit of the version number, e.g. 0.9.4). So far I have received only 5 messages asking that I post STDWIN to alt.sources. Given the size (almost a Megabyte) and the flames I got for posting Python, I won't post it unless I get a lot more fan mail. In the mean time, try to find a friend with ftp access! If you have ftp'ed STDWIN version 0.9.4 from wuarchive, this patch brings you up-to-date to version 0.9.5. A following message contains the original STDWIN report, which you can install as Doc/paper.ms for completeness. Finally, there is a message containing some shell commands to remove some files that were inadvertently distributed with 0.9.4 and to move a few files around to more convenient places. If you have applied the temporary patch to 0.9.4 for Ports/x11/general.c that I put out here, unpatch it first (or restore general.c.orig) since this patch will attempt to redo that patch (but different). I will install 0.9.5 and uninstall 0.9.4 on wuarchive as soon as I can get to it. Users in Europe: 0.9.5 will be available from hp4nl.nluug.nl from tomorrow afternoon. Good luck! --Guido van Rossum <guido@cwi.nl> [800 lines patch deleted. --Ed]
