Build relocation into libintl.
|
| |
I'm using gettext/libintl now for some time. I'm using gettext ports on different operating systems. For the win32 port of my program I use the GnuWin32 port of gettext/libintl (see [link]).

possible grep bug: -i switch with character class
|
| |
There seems to be some sort of glitch with character classes and the -i (--ignore-case) switch. I am using Mac OS X 10.6.1 (Snow Leopard). grep --version shows v2.5.1. I have not checked the latest grep version. Hopefully you can do that without too much trouble. To reproduce-- Create a text file called "test.txt" that consists of a single line of... more »

AWK, deleting and comparing lines

The feature as coded means "if WHINY_USERS exists in the environment, enable the whiny user related features." (There are at least two.)... more »
