Archive-name: unix/shell/tcsh/1991-01-12 Archive: vela.acs.oakland.edu:/pub/bin/tcsh* [141.210.10.2] Original-posting-by: schemers@vela.acs.oakland.edu (Roland Schemers III) Original-subject: tcsh Reposted-by: emv@ox.com (Edward Vielmetti) I spoke to soon when I said the binaries I had worked under Ultrix 4.0. I just switched over to hesiod this weekend, and people who were using the tcsh started complaining that something was up. I traced the problem to the fact that ~ expansion was broke, since tcsh was compiled under 3.1 the password routines didn't know about hesiod. After re-compiling tcsh under Ultrix 4.0, it works fine with hesiod. tcsh under risc Ultrix dumped core the first time I ran it, and I traced it down to changing 'char **environ;' to 'extern char **environ' in sh.func.c. It now runs fine. I have now created the following in ~ftp/pub/bin@vela.acs.oakland.edu: tcsh.3.1.mips tcsh.3.1.vax tcsh.4.0.mips tcsh.4.0.vax tcsh.l Roland ps. What was the final status on giving out tcsh binaries? legal? illegal? Mine where built form BSD 4.3 sources, and not Ultrix sources. -- Roland J.
