Annotation of 43BSD/contrib/dipress/CHANGES, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: RELEASE 2.0
                      2: 
                      3: [-everything-]
                      4: linted for non-portable constructs.  This has caused many of the library
                      5: functions to take longs as arguments rather than int's as in the old days.
                      6: This package has been tested on a Sun.  That should shake out most of the
                      7: byte swap problems.  The only things that still bomb on lint are: stackres,
                      8: restotext and ipmetrics.  Ipmetrics does seem to work on a Sun and Vax though.
                      9: 
                     10: [include]
                     11: iptokens.h incorrectly called maskunderline makeunderline
                     12: 
                     13: [ipf]
                     14: New: counts pages in a way that should be compatible with the Berkeley spooler.
                     15: 
                     16: [ipmetrics]
                     17: Contributed by Lee Moore.  A new conf.troff and conf.tex directories
                     18: have been added for creating metrics files for each of these composition
                     19: systems.  Since Berkeley hasn't finished the TeX to Interpress converter
                     20: yet, we haven't been able to test the output on that system.  In particular,
                     21: how on specifies characters not in character set zero remains a mystery.
                     22: A man page was also written for this utility.
                     23: 
                     24: [libip]
                     25: As mentioned above, these routines are now linted.  There is a lint
                     26: library ./lib/llib-lip.ln that gives programmers the ability to lint
                     27: code that uses the library.  Many routines take long's as arguments
                     28: instead of int's.
                     29: 
                     30: [qip]
                     31: We use a program called "qip" that hooks into BRL's MDQS system.  Since
                     32: most places don't have this system, we provide a shell script that
                     33: can be modified for local conditions.  Look at the script to see
                     34: how to use it.
                     35: 
                     36: [restotext]
                     37: Contributed by Keith Knox.  Converts and RES file to text form.
                     38: 
                     39: [stackres]
                     40: Contributed by Keith Knox.  Executes and RES file and prints out what's
                     41: on the stack.
                     42: 
                     43: [texttoip]
                     44: Bug fix: truncate output file on open.  Made it use the same include
                     45: files as everybody else.
                     46: 
                     47: RELEASE 1.3
                     48: 
                     49: [dipress]
                     50: Modify bitmap.c to output scan lines in multiple of 32 bits for compatibility
                     51: with new Xerox print services.  Bell code removed!!!
                     52: 
                     53: [doc]
                     54: Typo on page 17 in char-chart.me ( \(-| right perpindicular).  Added diff
                     55: for eqn/sqrt.c to get better looking square roots.
                     56: 
                     57: [iptroff]
                     58: Added the -q (quiet) option to not print information on the passes out.
                     59: This is handy when running programs in the background.  It is assumed
                     60: with the -t option.
                     61:

                     63: Changed all the makefiles to pass around destinations for the install commmand.
