If you notice something wrong, strange or broken, try rereading:
|
||||
|
||||
README.FIRST
|
||||
README
|
||||
BUGS (in particular the bottom problems or mis-features section)
|
||||
|
||||
If that does not help, cd to the calc source directory and try:
|
||||
|
||||
make check
|
||||
|
||||
Look at the end of the output, it should say something like:
|
||||
|
||||
9999: passed all tests /\../\
|
||||
|
||||
If it does not, then something is really broken!
|
||||
|
||||
If you made and modifications to calc beyond the simple Makefile
|
||||
configuration, try backing them out and see if things get better.
|
||||
|
||||
Check to see if the version of calc you are using is current. Calc
|
||||
distributions may be obtained from the official calc repository:
|
||||
|
||||
ftp://ftp.uu.net/pub/calc
|
||||
|
||||
If you are an alpha or beta tester, you may have a special pre-released
|
||||
version that is more advanced than what is in the ftp archive.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
If you have tried all of the above and things still are not right,
|
||||
then it may be time to send in a bug report. You can send bug reports to:
|
||||
|
||||
calc-tester@postofc.corp.sgi.com
|
||||
|
||||
When you send your report, please include the following information:
|
||||
|
||||
* a description of the problem
|
||||
|
||||
* the version of calc you are using (if you cannot get calc
|
||||
it to run, then send us the 4 #define lines from version.c)
|
||||
|
||||
* if you modified calc from an official patch, send me the mods you made
|
||||
|
||||
* the type of system you were using
|
||||
|
||||
* the type of compiler you were using
|
||||
|
||||
* cd to the calc source directory, and type:
|
||||
|
||||
make debug > debug.out 2>&1 (sh, ksh, bash users)
|
||||
make debug >& debug.out (csh, tcsh users)
|
||||
|
||||
and send the contents of the 'debug.out' file.
|
||||
|
||||
Stack traces from core dumps are useful to send as well.
|
||||

The official calc repository is located in:
|
||||
|
||||
ftp://ftp.uu.net/pub/calc
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't have ftp access to that site, or if your version is more
|
||||
recent than what has been released to the ftp archive, you may, as a
|
||||
last resort, send EMail to:
|
||||
|
||||
chongo@toad.com
|
||||
|
||||
Indicate the version you have and that you would like a more up to date version.
|
||||
|
||||
=-=
|
||||
|
||||
Send any comments, suggestions and most importantly, fixes (in the form
|
||||
of a context diff patch) to:
|
||||
|
||||
calc-tester@postofc.corp.sgi.com

|
||||
Known problems or mis-features:
|
||||
|
||||
* In calc2.10.2t3, when scan() reads characters from stdin, they
|
||||
are not echoed. This also happens with fgets(files(0)) and
|
||||
fgetline(files(0)). Reports indicate that this did not happen in
|
||||
calc.2.10.1t20 but did in 2.10.2t0.
|
||||
|
||||
* Many of LIBRARY, LIMITS and SEE ALSO sections of help files
|
||||
for builtins are either inconsistent or missing information.
|
||||
|
||||
* The functions filepos2z() and z2filepos() do not work (or
|
||||
worse do not compile) when FILEPOS is 64 bits long.
|
||||
|
||||
* There is some places in the source with obscure variable names
|
||||
and not much in the way of comments. We need some major cleanup
|
||||
and documentation.
