The files in this directory with suffixes `.t', `.d', `.r' and `.err' are
|
|
used for testing ed. To run the tests, set the ED variable in the Makefile
|
|
for the path name of the program to be tested (e.g., /bin/ed), and type
|
|
`make'. The tests do not exhaustively verify POSIX compliance.
|
|
|
|
The output of the tests is written to the two files err.o and scripts.o.
|
|
At the end of the tests, these files are grep'ed for error messages,
|
|
which look like:
|
|
*** The script u.ed exited abnormally ***
|
|
or:
|
|
*** Output u.o of script u.ed is incorrect ***
|
|
|
|
It is assumed that the ed being tested processes escapes (\) in file names.
|
|
This is so that a name starting with bang (!) can be read, via:
|
|
r \!file
|
|
Without the escape, a POSIX ed would attempt to read the output of
|
|
the shell command `file'. If the ed being tested does not support escape
|
|
processing on file names, then the script `mkscripts.sh' should be modified
|
|
accordingly.
|
|
|
|
The POSIX requirement that an address range not be used where at most
|
|
a single address is expected has been relaxed in this version of ed.
|
|
Therefore, the following scripts which test for compliance with this
|
|
POSIX rule exit abnormally:
|
|
=-err.ed
|
|
a1-err.ed
|
|
i1-err.ed
|
|
k1-err.ed
|
|
r1-err.ed
