character anchoring the pattern (‘#’ or ‘%’) must be skipped
if one was used; fixes “BLA="#test"; echo "${BLA//#/}"” busy
looping (due to null pattern) found by Jb_boin
UTF-8 BOM instead (UTFMODE has a separate value now for activated
during BOM skipping)
• parsing a COMSUB now skips UTF-8 BOM, too, but only temporarily
(token stream, lexer output / parser input), EOS terminated, let
SASPAREN use the same lexing as SBASE (e.g. COMSUB recursively)
• make wdstrip recursive
• fix processing of COMSUB in wdstrip
⇒ pass comsub-1 test
• expose another debugging function
① currently: ((cond) ? true : false) but (!!(cond)) and casting to bool,
the latter only if stdbool.h, would also work – which performs best on
(and across) all supported systems?
– possible integer overflows in memory allocation, mostly
‣ multiplication: all are checked now
‣ addition: reviewed them, most were “proven” or guessed to be
“almost” impossible to run over (e.g. when we have a string
whose length is taken it is assumed that the length will be
more than only a few bytes below SIZE_MAX, since code and
stack have to fit); some are checked now (e.g. when one of
the summands is an off_t); most of the unchecked ones are
annotated now
⇒ cost (MirBSD/i386 static): +76 .text
⇒ cost (Debian sid/i386): +779 .text -4 .data
– on Linux targets, setuid() setresuid() setresgid() can fail
with EAGAIN; check for that and, if so, warn once and retry
infinitely (other targets to be added later once we know that
they are “insane”)
⇒ cost (Debian sid/i386): +192 .text (includes .rodata)
• setmode.c: Do overflow checking for realloc() too; switch back
from calloc() to a checked malloc() for simplification while there
• define -DIN_MKSH and let setmode.c look a tad nicer while here
• deactivate %a and %A since our libc doesn’t have it
• rewrite the mksh integration code to use shf instead of stdio, removing
floating point support always in the process, as shf doesn’t support it
⇒ saves 11114 (6706 text, 168 data, 4240 bss) with dietlibc on Debian
• fix -Wall -Wextra -Wformat -Wstrict-aliasing=2 for gcc (Debian 4.4.4-7)
• fix these and -Wc++-compat for gcc version 4.6.0 20100711 (experimental)
[trunk revision 162057] (Debian 20100711-1) except:
– a few enum warnings that relate to eglibc’s {g,s}etrlimit() functions
taking an enum instead of an int because they’re too stupid to adhere
to POSIX interfaces they design by themselves
– all “request for implicit conversion” involving a "void *" on one side
• tweak the manual page somewhat more
• merge the rest of branch tg-wcswidth-behaviour
• enhance test cases for wcswidth-like behaviour
• switch hash table collision resolution algorithm to Python’s as announced
• bump vsn
I read, IIRC in the Cederqvist, that 'cvs tag' sets a sticky tag onto
the cwd… it doesn’t, apparently. (I actually like it better this way,
but one needs to know!)
others (colon and equals sign need to be simply escaped, while dollar
sign and accent gravis need double escaping like opening square brak-
ket did back then); add = to C_QUOTE to simplify (doesn't break any-
thing) and sort these strings asciibetically while here
bash4 doesn’t have it at all, despite knowing associative arrays
zsh does it………… differently and weird
this is for indexed arrays, as mksh doesn’t have associative arrays
but it should help ☺
return information needed to do a real ktremove instead of the pseudo
ktdelete operation which merely unsets the DEFINED flag to mark it as
eligible for texpand garbage collection (even worse, !DEFINED entries
are still counted)
commented out for mksh R38* but also used // denoting a temporary, de-
bugging-only, code exclusion which never should have been in the wild
Caught by ucode cc on DEC ULTRIX (where else?), thanks DEChengst ☻☺
• expose “#ifdef MKSH_MIDNIGHTBSD01ASH_COMPAT” just in case they decide to
require it and show it in the ksh version automatically
• sync the use of non-ASCII characters over files (unification)
fix the regression test’s results while here, which have been
broken since cid 10049D9BE5254CE65B8
• get rid of separate copyright file which was intended for De-
bian; track down commits in all files of oksh-mirbsd and mksh
to get correct copyright years per-file, as is BSD custom
${foo:1:2} operates on characters ipv bytes – which means:
‣ set +U: octets
‣ set -U: MirOS OPTU-8 characters
for consistency I also adapted ${#stringname} to deliver the
length in characters ipv bytes; more may follow; for example
I’d like a way to expose the string width.
you can already get the MirOS OPTU-16 of a character in the
WTF-8 (「set -U」) mode with something like
│ typeset -Uui16 -Z7 x=1#${stringname:position:1}
which will correctly use the PUA EF80‥EFFF mapping for octets.
due to this being an incompatible change, bump to R38
also change the unicode-hexdump sample regression test and
add two news for ${x:1:2} and ${#x} checks in A/W mode ☺
