Most important, IMHO, are the MH change logs, as they + can help answer questions like "Why is this code like this?" or + "How long has this been broken?" or "What was this ever used for?" + + I've added a new file to the nmh tree called + ChangeLog_MH-3_to_MH-6.6. It's cobbled together from the + mh-6.8.4/papers/mh*/MHCHANGES files. I've re-ordered the entries + to go from newest at the top to oldest at the bottom to match the + ChangeLog convention. Unfortunately there are no change logs for + versions of MH prior to 3 in the MH tar files available at + . Also, it appears to me that there + are MH-6.6 changes that aren't documented in the logs. + + I've also added ChangeLog_MH-6.7.0_to_MH-6.8.4.html. This is + based on mh-6.8.4/papers/changes/mh-changes.ms. The nroff format + and its "catman"-type output are a pain to deal with, but I was + loath to throw away the formatting, so I converted the file to + HTML. The only actual markup in the body are the "" and "" + tags, and "<" and ">" instead of '<' and '>', so it's quite + doable to view the file in plain ASCII mode as well. Note that + some of the changes this file documents as having been made in + MH-6.8.4 may not be present in nmh -- Richard started with 6.8.3 + and later put in certain 6.8.4 stuff. + +Wed Apr 05 21:09:28 2000 Dan Harkless + + * Applied Eric Schnoebelen 's mhshowsbr.c patch + fixing apparent bugs in Dan Winship's new security quoting code: + + Since upgrading, I've been getting the following errors + while attempting to process some MIME messages: + + (1) Syntax error: Unterminated quoted string + exit 2 + + and: + + (2) line 1/10 (END)Segmentation fault (core dumped) + + (2) appears to be due to the testing of an unset pointer in + mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux(). (1) appears to be caused by + mis-quoting a filename being handed to the shell in + mhshowsbr.c:show_content_aux(). + + Resolving the pointer reference issue in + mhshowsbr.c:show_multi_aux() turned up a similar mis-quoting + problem in the routine. + Tue Mar 28 16:17:39 2000 Doug Morris - * Applied Todd Miller 's patch to - dropsbr.c to prevent core dumping on packf.
