EXPORTABLE_SYSTEM. Additionally, since it doesn't actually use libtelnet
for any of the 'interesting' features, it shouldn't be using libtelnet
at all (because that adds some serious headaches and problems, on ELF
systems with shared libraries, which cannot be easily addressed and
don't actually _have_ to be). Now it simply pulls in genget.c from
the libtelnet source, and builds it locally.
quotes. E.g. if left quote was "``" and right quote was "''", then
"``foo ``bar'' baz''" would yield "foo `bar' baz" when it should yield
"foo ``bar'' baz".
it uses pbstr() instead of doing the characters individually (in
reverse order) with putback().
Fix dodiv() so that divert(<out-of-range stream>) doesn't cause "divnum" to
return 0, but rather the stream number specified to divert(). Macros
like PUSHDIVERT/POPDIVERT rely on this. The new behaviour is compatible
with vendor m4 implementations.
barring any more little things people want added ...]
New features:
* progressmeter is now asynchronous, so "stalled" transfers can be
detected. "- stalled -" is displayed instead of the ETA in this case.
When the xfer resumes, the time that the xfer was stalled for is
factored out of the ETA. It is debatable whether this is better than
not factoring it out, but I like it this way (I.e, if it stalls for 8
seconds and the ETA was 30 seconds, when it resumes the ETA will still
be 30 seconds).
* verbosity can be disabled on the command line (-V), so that in auto-fetch
mode the only lines displayed will be a description of the file, and
the progress bar (if possible)
* if the screen is resized (and detected via the SIGWINCH signal), the
progress bar will rescale automatically.
Bugs fixed:
* progress bar will not use the last character on the line, as this can
cause problems on some terminals
* screen dimensions (via ioctl(TIOCWINSZ)) should use stdout not stdin
* progressmeter() used some vars before initialising them
* ^D will quit now. [fixes bin/3162]
* use hstrerror() to generate error message for host name lookup failure.
* use getcwd instead of getwd (it should have been OK, but why tempt fate?)
* auto-fetch transfers will always return a positive exit value upon failure
or interruption, relative to the file's position in argv[].
* remote completion of / will work, without putting a leading "///".
This is actually a bug in ftpd(1), where "NLST /" prefixes all names
with "//", but fixing every ftpd(1) is not an option...
