- It was originally written for v7 and 4.1BSD; a version that had been
- partially adapted to the Berkeley Fast File System and portable
- directory package appeared in mod.sources several years ago, but it
- had several bugs (among the more severe, it always dumps core on some
- systems). This version fixes those and also has improved performance
- and more helpful error messages. It also works on System V; for the
- benefit of System V users, I have packaged with dtree Doug Gwyn's free
- reimplementation of the getcwd function that doesn't open a pipe to
- /bin/pwd but determines the current directory directly; this should
- help performance on those systems.
