- Changes from Eric's 1.05.1 to my 1.05.1:
- o carriage returns in shell scripts are now ignored. This means
- that you can safely edit bash.rc and so on with an ST editor. (Thanks Tim
- Gallivan for that one!)
- o the executable is smaller (by about 30k). This is because I used
- a newer GCC and let it optimise the code. Newer libraries help too.
- o BASH does not die anymore when ask to perform wildcard expansion
- in a directory with 14 character filenames (on a Minix partition).
- o The \h option in prompt strings can take the value of the
- environment variable $HOSTNAME. I call my machine 'tiny68'.
- o I think the bug which caused BASH (and KSH) to SIGSTOP themselves
- after a while is gone. I did NOT fix it; if it reappears, tell me.
- o 'times' now works right. This was a bug in the library.
- o HISTORY works differently. I don't know which way is right, but
- I prefer my way.
