28Nov 29, 2002:
29 modified b.c (with tiny changes in main and run) to support
30 locales, using strcoll and iswhatever tests for posix character
31 classes. thanks to ruslan ermilov (ru@freebsd.org) for code.
32 the function isblank doesn't seem to have propagated to any
33 header file near me, so it's there explicitly. not properly
34 tested on non-ascii character sets by me.
35
36Jun 28, 2002:
37 modified run/format() and tran/getsval() to do a slightly better
38 job on using OFMT for output from print and CONVFMT for other
39 number->string conversions, as promised by posix and done by
40 gawk and mawk. there are still places where it doesn't work
41 right if CONVFMT is changed; by then the STR attribute of the
42 variable has been irrevocably set. thanks to arnold robbins for
43 code and examples.
44
45 fixed subtle bug in format that could get core dump. thanks to
46 Jaromir Dolecek <jdolecek@NetBSD.org> for finding and fixing.
47 minor cleanup in run.c / format() at the same time.
48
49 added some tests for null pointers to debugging printf's, which
50 were never intended for external consumption. thanks to dave
51 kerns (dkerns@lucent.com) for pointing this out.
52
53 GNU compatibility: an empty regexp matches anything (thanks to
54 dag-erling smorgrav, des@ofug.org). subject to reversion if
55 this does more harm than good.
56
57 pervasive small changes to make things more const-correct, as
58 reported by gcc's -Wwrite-strings. as it says in the gcc manual,
59 this may be more nuisance than useful. provoked by a suggestion
60 and code from arnaud desitter, arnaud@nimbus.geog.ox.ac.uk
61
62 minor documentation changes to note that this now compiles out
63 of the box on Mac OS X.
64
28Feb 10, 2002:
29 changed types in posix chars structure to quiet solaris cc.
30
31Jan 1, 2002:
32 fflush() or fflush("") flushes all files and pipes.
33
34 length(arrayname) returns number of elements; thanks to
35 arnold robbins for suggestion.
