Interface and function as proposed by cls.
The reasoning behind this function is that cls expressed his
interest to keep memory allocation out of libutf, which is a
very good motive.
This simplifies the function a lot and should also increase the
speed a bit, but the most important factor here is that there's
no malloc anywhere in libutf, making it a lot smaller and more
robust with a smaller attack-surface.
Look at the paste(1) and tr(1) changes for an idiomatic way to
allocate the right amount of space for the Rune-array.
Interface as proposed by cls, but internally rewritten after a few
considerations.
The code is much shorter and to the point, aligning itself with other
standard functions. It should also be much faster, which is not bad.
This optimizes the binary size for each tool that uses these functions.
Previously, if a program just used one single function, maybe even a
one-liner, it would statically compile in all lookup-tables, bloating
the binary by up to 20K.
All these changes are derived from a local libutf where I do the
primary changes. So I hope that I can merge these things into libutf
sooner or later, as discussed on the ml.
tr(1) always used to be a saddening part of sbase, which was
inherently broken and crufted.
But to be fair, the POSIX-standard doesn't make it very simple.
Given the current version was unfixable and broken by design, I
sat down and rewrote tr(1) very close to the concept of set theory
and the POSIX-standard with a few exceptions:
- UTF-8: not allowed in POSIX, but in my opinion a must. This
finally allows you to work with UTF-8 streams without
problems or unexpected behaviour.
- Equivalence classes: Left out, even GNU coreutils ignore them
and depending on LC_COLLATE, which sucks.
- Character classes: No experiments or environment-variable-trickery.
Just plain definitions derived from the POSIX-
standard, working as expected.
I tested this thoroughly, but expect problems to show up in some
way given the wide range of input this program has to handle.
The only thing left on the TODO is to add support for literal
expressions ('\n', '\t', '\001', ...) and probably rethinking
the way [_*n] is unnecessarily restricted to string2.
Not quite necessary to have this in sbase at the moment. We can do
a clean implementation when required.
This implementation also has some bugs that they have been fixed
in OpenBSD -current but I am too lazy to backport (we also had local
changes to col(1)).
printf(1) as imported from OpenBSD will stay for now because I need
it for booting my system.
Get rid of it for now as it is not really widely used. We can do
a simple implementation when time comes.
Remove the table from README because it is not easy to edit unless
you use emacs.
We seem to have problems building individual tools across various
make implementations. If anyone can step up and fix this we will
remove the dependency on GNU make.
The result is always correct but it might do redundant builds.
Not really an issue as sbase builds very fast. The alternative is
to track the header deps manually but this is already incomplete and
unlikely to be kept up to date.
Factor out the code from md5sum and sha1sum into a util function.
Use FILE * instead of a file descriptor. This will make it a bit
easier/more consistent when we implement support for the -c option.
This commit adds the renice command and its man page,
it also introduces some fixes:
* Makes nice command more solid, it also makes it respect POSIX return values.
* Fixes estrtol, which produced a misleading error on out of range errors.
* Fixes chgrp.1 NAME section.
