- KNOWN BUGS AND PROBLEMS
- =======================
-
- ********************************************************************
- Bugs/problems I intend to fix:
- ********************************************************************
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Setting "show all files" and doing an FTP copy recursively doesn't
- work too well. (It tries to create directories named . and ..)
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Having file names with spaces in them or other unusual characters
- (for a file name) when fetching from FTP in background mode usually
- doesn't work. A workaround is to download synchronously (in the
- foreground).
-
- ********************************************************************
- Bugs I don't intend to fix:
- ********************************************************************
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- FileRunner cannot handle files or directories that start with a
- ~-character. This looks like a bug in Tcl actually. Tcl parses a file
- called "~foo" as the home directory of user "foo", which is not
- correct if you really mean the file "~foo"...
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Files with spaces in the filename will sort incorrectly.
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- If your timezone is set to GMT+xx then you might get incorrect dates
- when you view FTP listings. This is because the Tcl/Tk clock scan
- function cannot deal with GMT+xx elements in the date string. Don't
- know why. You should use another timezone notation instead, like PST
- or MET etc.
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Marking an entry in the hotlist and pressing the middle mouse button
- will yield an error.
-
- --------------------------------------------------------------------
- Don't press Alt+Esc to exit a text window
-
-
- ********************************************************************
- The following list shows crash dumps caused by bugs in Tcl/Tk.
- There's not much I can do about them, other than acknowledge their
- existence and hope the next version of Tcl/Tk won't have them.
