The following are the changes from calc version 2.11.9 to date:
Fixed calc man page examples to move -f to the end of the line.
Thanks goes to Michael Somos <somos at grail dot cba dot csuohio
dot edu> for pointing this out.
Linux and gcc now compiled with -Wall -W -Wno-comment.
Fixed a post increment that was reported by R. Trinler <trinler at
web dot de> and fixed by Ernest Bowen <ernie at turing dot une dot
edu dot au>.
Fixed pi.cal to not depend on the buggy pre-2.11.9 post increment
behavior.
Added config("cygwin") to determine if calc was compiled under Cygwin.
The config("cygwin") is a read-only configuration value that is 1
when calc was compiled under Cygwin and 0 otherwise. Regression
tests 949 and 950 are skipped when config("cygwin") is true.
The Makefile variable HAVE_NO_IMPLICIT is empty by default so that
the Makefile will test if the compiler has a -Wno-implicit flag.
Added HAVE_UNUSED Makefile variable. If HAVE_UNUSED is empty,
then the Makefile will run the have_unused program to determine
if the unused attribute is supported. If HAVE_UNUSED is set to
-DHAVE_NO_UNUSED, then the unused attribute will not be used.
The Makefile builds have_unused.h which defines, if the unused
attribute is supported:
#define HAVE_UNUSED /* yes */
#define UNUSED __attribute__((unused)) /* yes */
or defines, if the unused is not supported (or if the Makefile
variable is HAVE_UNUSED= -DHAVE_NO_UNUSED):
#undef HAVE_UNUSED /* no */
#define UNUSED /* no */
Fixed numerous warnings about comparison between signed and unsigned
value warnings and unused parameter warnings in version.c, zrand.c,
string.c, shs1.c, shs.c, qtrans.c, qmath.c, qfunc.c, md5.c, matfunc.c,
