Before it has always created in the current directory. * (Problem reported by Nige Watson.) * * Another bug fix for string concatenation: "abc//'def'//ghi" gave the * wrong result. (Problem reported by Nicole Lhermitte.) * * KUGETL: blank values in a variable length argument list were ignored. * * Remove edit server lock file before exiting. * * Avoid "writable strings" problem with default values. * *::> VERSION 2.00/14 930128 18.32 * * Alpha/VMS CC with /STAN=VAXC is now compiling without warnings. * * Second iteration for NeXT implementation. * * Bug fix in getline(): memory was overwritten when prompt exceeded * 80 characters (affected PAWGKS on VMS). * * After 3 consecutive ^C ask whether he wants to exit from application. * * Put additional calls to KUALFA in strategic places. * * "READ var" keeps the initial value of macro variable when pressing . * Problem reported by Tim Cox. * * For implicit LOOP arguments to commands: comma is only recognized as * argument separator if it is outside balanced (). * * For KUGETL: comma is only recognized as argument separator if it is * outside balanced () or ''. * *::> VERSION 2.00/13 930126 16.50 * * Avoid compiler warnings on Apollo and SGI. * * Fix for accessing common blocks from C on Cray. * * Restored old behaviour for KUPROx routines: input value is left unchanged * if typing . * * Fix for SUN and DECstation: strtod() is declared in instead * of * * Replace long by int: we assume that int is at least 32 bits. * * New routine KUGRFL to flush the graphics output after each command. * The routine passed should do the same as IGTERM for X11 but be dummy for GKS. * * KUGETE ignored default value. * * First iteration for NeXT implementation. * * KIMULT: '*' was missing from list of characters which inhibit ';' being * the line separator --> on VMS "shell del file.type;*" was not working * inside a macro. * *::> VERSION 2.00/12 930122 21.24 * * Removed KUALFA after each command executed. * * On VM/CMS: replace sleep() emulation by call to SLEEPF (clash with with * entry in COMMTXT.TXTLIB). * * On VAX/VMS: MACRO/DEFAULT -Auto worked only if a search path was set. * * Undefined numbered variables, e.g. [1] are now replaced by "!". * * KUGETI and KUGETR now prompt in case the argument is not a valid number. * * Wrong logic in string concatenation: "abc//def//'ghi'" became "'abc//defghi'" * instead of "'abcdefghi'". * * "TRACE ON TEST" executed action routines. * *::> VERSION 2.00/11 930121 16.27 * * "V/CREATE name" is now treated as "V/CREATE name(1)". * * Environment variable KUIPEDITOR takes precedence over EDITOR. * *::> VERSION 2.00/10 930120 18.43 * * New CDF features are now available as well through Fortran mode of KUIPC. * * "-option" was only recognized if it was the last argument on the command * line. * * Use G-format instead of F-format to convert result of $SIGMA. * * Edit server is only used if HOST_EDITOR command contains a '&'. * HOST_EDITOR 'vi &' is treated as HOST_EDITOR 'xterm -e vi &'. * *::> VERSION 2.00/09 930118 16.45 * * Style GP reimplemented. * * Motif terminal kxterm introduced. * *::> VERSION 2.00/08 930115 14.06 * * FATMEN's "LS file -L" did not work because the second parameter is an * Integer which had implictly the MINUS flag set inhibiting the CHOPT trial. * ==> KUIPC changed that the MINUS flag for numeric parameters is not set * automatically any more. Instead "-value" on a numeric argument position * is checked whether it is a number. Otherwise the CHOPT assignment is tried. * * The filename "last.kumac" was undefined when exiting with having executed * a LAST command (message "Cannot open" when leaving application). * * In order to allow the new HPLOT escape sequences "@[" an undocumented * feature had to be removed: The construct "@[name]" forced variable * substitution even inside quoted strings. The same functionality is * achieved by using "//" for string concatenation, e.g. "vecname='vec@[n]'" * has to be replaced by "vecname='vec'//[n]". * * Bug fix for VMS file paths inside macros, e.g. "shell dir disk$xx:[user]". * Note: VMS file paths may NOT appear in EXEC statements inside a macro, * i.e. "EXEC DISK$xx:[user]macnam" does not work inside a macro (it does * though when entering it on the command line). * Workaround: define a logical name for the directory path and use * "EXEC LOG_NAME:macnam" or include the directory in the kumac search * path "MACRO/DEFAULT [],DISK$xx:[user]" and use "EXEC macnam". * *::> VERSION 2.00/07 930113 15.58 * * Typing "Q" after WAIT prompt terminates macro execution. * * Bug fix in Motif prompt for WAIT command. * *::> VERSION 2.00/06 930112 18.45 * * In concatenated system functions, e.g. "$machine$os" only the last one * was replaced. * * Macro variables "[%var]" were not replaced. * * TRACE ON WAIT implemented. * * All keyboard input requests are now done through Motif widgets. * * KGETAR did not work for VMS. * * New special argument value "!!" replaced by value used for previous * command execution, i.e. for mandatory parameters it behaves like * pressing at prompt. * * "-option" syntax was misbehaving if a shorted range value was a substring * of a longer range value. * *::> VERSION 2.00/05 930107 17.38 * * The dollar sign can be used in alias names. * * LaTeX manual formatting improved. * * Command LAST excluded the last command. * * Appending the default ".KUMAC" filetype was not done for VMS path names * like "[dir.sub]file". * * Problems with macro variable substitition if macro file name contains a * VMS directory path solved. (Special thanks to Rob Kreuger for reporting * the VMS related problems.) * * MACRO/DEFAULT -Auto/AutoReverse reimplemented. The default path can now * be a comma separated list of directories. * *::> VERSION 2.00/04 921218 17.03 * * Falco terminals lost arrow keys when logging into TAGIBM because the * escape sequences changes from "ESC-[-A" to "ESC-O-A". * * VMS signal handler installed to avoid program aborting for VMS * specific exceptions, e.g. invalid filenames. * * Unix only: KUHOME replaces now again environment variables in * filenames, e.g. $HOME/file.type * * When prompting for missing arguments the last used value is proposed * as default. * *::> VERSION 2.00/03 921214 19.06 * * KUIPAPPL.TMP files are opened for unformatted access to allow RECFM V * on VM/CMS. * * Bug fix for VM/CMS crash in KUPATH: In a CALL SUB('ABC') to a C function * SUB(char *ptr, int*len) the pointer ptr my NOT be considered as a local * variable. Doing ptr++ will be disastrous in the end. * *::> VERSION 2.00/02 921211 18.13 * * KUIP system functions were not substituted if used in CASE * e.g. CASE $OS IN ... did not work * * Bug fix for VM/CMS crash when calling help for command with * >User-Help twice * * KUARGS for option -n (no logon kumac) fixed * * Assignments "name = val" evaluated to "name = @macname[val]". * Fixed by removing the obsoleted feature of decoding unbracketed * variable names on the right hand side, i.e. "i = i+1" must now * be written as "i = [i]+1". * * KUVAR was passing a string constant to routines which could overwrite it. * * Name clash with FATMEN for routine fmatch(). Renamed to fwmatch() * * Command repetition now also recognized if ! is not in first column. * * Recognize alias names as help item, e.g. "A/CRE LS DIR C; HELP LS" * * Delete KUIPHELP.TMP file after exiting from HELP in -EDIT style * *::> VERSION 2.00/01 921209 17.54 * * Delete temp vectors created for non-contiguous subarrays * * For gcc (Sun) use option -fwritable-strings * *::> VERSION 2.00/00 921204 21.36 * * A large fraction of KUIP has been rewritten in C. The new version is * intended to be (mostly) backwards compatible to the old one but because * of the large amount of new code involved we cannot exclude that some * incompatibilities remain. We want to urge all users to test their KUMAC * files with the PAW version in the new area before it goes into production. * * At the moment the following features are not yet fully implemented: * * DEFAULTS -AUTO * MANUAL in SGML and plain TeX * STYLE GP * TRACE WAIT * system functions for STYLE GP ($KEYNUM, $KEYVAL) * * * Known incompatibilities: * * - Alias names may contain only letters, digits, @-signs and underscores. * (If someone can make a strong case that this is too restrictive, * let us know; we can still consider going back to the old scheme.) * * - The commands /KUIP/LISTHELP and /KUIP/SET_SHOW/MODE have been removed. * * * Improvements: * * - There is no limit on the number of aliases anymore. * Since KUMAC variables are treated internally as a special kind of * alias complex macros could hit the limit of 200 aliases before. * * - The HELP command recognizes now abbreviations for submenu names. * E.g. HELP H/OP works now while before HELP HISTOGRAM/OPERATIONS had * to be spelled out. * * - The HELP command does a simple text formatting. The line length is * controlled by /KUIP/SET_SHOW/COLUMNS. * * - The HELP -EDIT option is now implemented for all systems. * A new command /KUIP/SET_SHOW/HOST_PAGER defines the pager used to * display the help text. E.g. on a Unix workstation define * HOST_PAGER 'xterm -e view &' to display the help text in a * separate window. * * - A new command /KUIP/SET_SHOW/FILECASE allows now to select the case * sensitivity for filenames on Unix systems. Before this functionality * was hidden as STYLE '-FILECASE ON'. * * - A new command /KUIP/SET_SHOW/RECALL_STYLE to define the command recall * and editing style. There is a choice between ksh/emacs-like binding * and the key definitions used by DCL command line editing on VAX/VMS. * ******************************************************************************* * - A completely new Motif interface with a browser for application * * specific object types and many more features. * ******************************************************************************* *
