        Fix out-of-tree builds of man pages.

2013-08-31  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        [mdiff] Fix conflicting short option letter.
        
        There were two cases of 't' so far, --expand-tabs and --tolerance. This
        could lead to segmentation faults, since one of them expects an argument
        while the other does not. The latter is now removed since it is not even
        reported in the online help. Yet another -t option is removed from the
        documentation.
        
        The whole thing still looks like it would need a lot more work, with all the
        FIXME lines it contains.

        Do not require Texinfo 5.0.

2013-03-08  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Disable some syntax checks to ensure we pass the rest.
        
        As there is no portable alternative to strncpy, and the strncpy uses in this
        application should be handling things careful enough, this seems safe.
        
        Keeping 9 years of copyrights in a single line in the texi file doesn't
        agree with my ideas of good style, so I'll rather disable the check.

        Drop autodetection of less in mdiff as well.

2011-11-15  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Drop autodetection of less. Use the environment variable LESS instead to
        pass options to less without affecting other pagers. Pass -R in addition to 
        -X so less will simply pass control sequences to the terminal. By no longer
        automatically enabling less-mode (i.e. overstrike_for_less), we avoid   
        having to split a byte stream into characters for multibyte locales.
        Less-mode is now deprecated, but can still be used if explicitely enabled on
        the command line.

2011-11-15  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        * Pass PATH on to env inside screen. Without this, screen on OS X 10.5 will
        set that variable to some default, and the version of wdiff that will be
        tested will be the one installed, not the one just built.
        * Don't mention screen in AT_TESTED, as doing so will cause the test suite
        to fail if screen isn't available.
        
        Thanks to Nelson H. F. Beebe for a verbose e-mail pointing out these issues.

2011-09-29  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Don't run the public-submodule-commit rule as part of the check target.
        
        The resulting extra output of "make check" can be confusing for users, and
        doesn't benefit wdiff as we're using neither git nor submodules.

2011-09-29  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Document testsuite fix

2011-09-29  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Use tr instead of sed to remove carriage returns in testsuite.
        
        The sed binary on OS X 10.6 doesn't recognise the '\r' escape sequence, and
        matches all occurrences of the letter 'r' instead.  POSIX doesnapparently
        doesn't require sed to understand '\r', but tr is required to know about it.
        
        Thanks to John Purnell for the report and detailed investigation.

        Beta release 1.0.2.

2011-09-15  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Preparing a beta release 1.0.2 for translators.
        
        As there are virtually no changes except for the translation message id
        strings, there is little point in releasing this version tothe public before
        a significant number of translations are available as well.  Thus it's beta.

2011-09-15  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Updated gnulib.
        
        Re-imported gnulib modules based on the current revision
        2c53fc42a02ccb53023521043c774769b057cbfb of the master branch, or more
        precisely, revision 161eb687864aaabb0aa54a8a8e3b7e446077e977 of my own
        "mvg" branch, available from github.

2011-09-04  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Add test case to check handling of unified diff files as input.

2011-09-04  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Improve pager test.
        
        The test now checks the full output, which helps in case wdiff prints any
        error message that it should not.  The test now is more likely to skip if
        any application out of our control does not behave as expected.

2011-09-03  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Rename system.h to wdiff.h.
        
        The header contains code common to many source files in the wdiff package,
        but not necessarily code related to the system (as in operating system)
        we're building for.  This the new name should be better suited.

2011-09-03  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Reindented pipes.c.

2011-09-03  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Scan renamed pipes.c for translatable strings, instead of old file names.
        
        Accidentially reverted that change before I committed the pipes.c rewrite.

2011-09-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Add test for usage of the pager.
        
        This requires screen to provide a tty which isatty will accept.  If screen
        is not available, the test will be skipped.

2011-09-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Unify pipe stream code.
        
        Now we have a single function to do the bulk of the pipe operation.  The two
        frontends readpipe and writepipe are rather minimalistic.
        The main motivation behind this change is using dup2 from gnulib instead of
        the old and probably less portable code relying on the order in which file
        descriptors are allocated by the operating system.

2011-09-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Perform uniform indentation using the indent tool.
        
        This commit is simply the result of a call to "make indent", which in turn
        ran "indent -gnu -ppi1 -ut" on all our source files.

2011-09-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Prepare for uniform indentation using the indent tool.
        
        Adding a set of style flags to cfg.mk which matches current style as closely
        as possible, and is also reasonably close to GNU defaults.  As mixing lines
        using tabs and those using only spaces will look particularly horrible in
        editors, we're forcing all code to use one style only.  As the current code
        mostly use tabs, that's our choice for now, but we might change that to
        spaces only one day.
        
        A check for proper indentation is now included in the syntax checks as well,
        so if a developer executes those checks as part of the release process, bad
        indentation will cause that check to fail.  Some other minor fixes and
        improvements to maint.mk were included in the process.
        
        The usage texts are not automatically indented, as for those lines, having
        output lines and code lines increases readability dramatically.  Having all
        those fputs lines reindented would make the code much harder to read than
        even hard wrapped lines do.  And most editors will allow truncating lines
        instead or wrapping them, making them even easier to read.

2011-09-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Scan readpipe.c and writepipe.c for translatable error messages.
        
        Thanks to the gnulib maintainer-makefile syntax-check for catching this.

2011-09-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Report errors due to a problem calling the diff program.
        
        - We use the gnulib error module for reporting, so explicitely adding it as
        a dependency.
        - Dropped old vararg syntax in readpipe.c and writepipe.c. The gnulib error
        function provides the new syntax only, so we depend on that being
        supported anyway.  Dropping old cruft only adds readability here.
        - When diff returned with an error code other than 0 (no differences) or 1
        (some differences), then we should not print remaining lines as unchanged,
        but exit with an error code ourselves.  This requires moving of the
        complete_input_program call to a location before the common tail is
        printed.
        - Added a test group simulating a missing or erroring diff binary.

        This way, contributors to sidelines, the translations sideline in
        particular, will be credited properly in the ChangeLog as well, not just in
        the translation message files.  One (somewhat ugly) consequence is that many
        messages appear twice, once for the sideline commit and once for the merge. 
        Can't be helped just now.

        Use $(PATH_SEPARATOR) in makefile for added compatibility.
        
        This was suggested by the gnulib syntax check.

2010-12-04  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Deprecate --no-init-term, make --terminal a synonym to it.
        
        Terminal initialization is only required when performing cursor movement,
        which wdiff doesn't.  Therefore there should be no need to initialize the
        terminal.  Furthermore, doing initialization can cause the screen to be
        restored to its pre-initialization state upon deinitialization, thereby
        clearing all wdiff output.
        
        As a consequence, we never do terminal initialization.  This is what the old
        --no-init-term option did.  Nevertheless we keep the shorter and more
        intuitive --terminal (-t) as the documented and preferred option,
        deprecating --no-init-term.  We still accept the option, but don't document
        it in the online help, and use a dedicated section on compatibility in the
        man page.

2010-12-04  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Improve help2man generation of man pages.
        
        * Avoid passing a path in argv[0] to the invoked process.
        * Ensure binary not only exists, but is more recent than source file.
        * Put long things like the name section into a separate help2man file.

        Releasing 0.6.2.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Pass sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros, introduce EXIT_ERROR.
        
        The old use of EXIT_FAILURE with a nonstandard value of 2 was confusing. 
        It's cleaner to pick a new name when using a new value.  So I replaced most
        occurrences of EXIT_FAILURE with EXIT_ERROR (=2), in distinction to
        EXIT_DIFFERENCE (=1).
        
        sc_prohibit_always-defined_macros complains about the environ definition in
        a comment in build-aux/warn-on-use.h which obviously doesn't make a lot of
        sense.  We simply ignore build-aux altogether for this kind of check.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Set gnulib_dir so sc_prohibit_always_true_header_tests works.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Pass sc_prohibit_empty_lines_at_EOF syntax check.
        
        Except ABOUT-NLS from that check, as it is generated by gettext and
        therefore not under our control.
        
        Drop empty line from end of Makefile.am.  It was there because previous
        gettextize invocations used to append stuff to that file, and we want such
        additions separated.  But recent gettext behaves well, so let's be clean
        here.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Add ./ or build-aux/ to several files given as raw file names before.
        Newly ignore build-aux/compile and lib/uniwidth/.dirstamp which occur now.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Replace strrchr with mbsrchr.
        
        This prevents the gnulib syntax check sc_prohibit_strings_without_use from
        complaining about the strings.h inclusion.  Any platform where the old code
        used to build but the new one doesn't will be considered a bug in gnulib.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Import gnulib module mbsrchr.
        
        We'll use it to replace a strrchr invocation that the gnulib syntax check
        sc_prohibit_strings_without_use complains about.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Add files generated by autopoint for gnulib.
        
        The autopoint from gettext 0.18 seems to create some more files, or more
        precisely, the same files in additional directories, i.e. lib/po/ as well
        as po/ itself.  Add them, as we have all gettext infrastructure under
        revision control.

2010-05-25  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Upgrade to gettext-0.18.

        Updated German translation.

2010-04-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Imported gnulib module strstr-simple.
        
        This ensures that a strstr implementation is available, without bothering
        about its efficiency.

2010-04-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Resolve symlinks for PAGER when detecting less.
        
        E.g. on Debian, people might have /usr/bin/pager as their configured pager,
        which is a symlink to /etc/alternatives/pager which in turn might be a
        symlink to /usr/bin/less.  So resolving symlinks increases chances we detect
        less.
        
        Loosely based on a Debian patch by Charles C. Fu, currently available from:
        http://patch-tracker.debian.org/patch/series/view/wdiff/0.5-21/04
        and mentioning http://bugs.debian.org/36618.

2010-04-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Imported gnulib module canonicalize-lgpl for realpath implementation.

2010-04-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Introduce --with-default-pager=PAGER configure switch.
        
        This might benefit distros like e.g. debian, which can configure
        --with-default-pager=/usr/bin/pager in order to get a sane system-wide
        default for users without PAGER environment variable.  Of course, specifying
        --with-default-pager=/usr/bin/less or similar would be a sensible thing even
        for many systems without configurable system-wide default pager.

2010-04-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Drop PARAMS macro in mdiff as well.

2010-03-31  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Fix missing newline in info dir entry list.

2010-03-30  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Updated NEWS file to include 0.6.0 release.
        
        Yes, I know the release has been made, and the NEWS have been forgotten.
        Still it would be good for later releases to include this information.

2010-03-30  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Drop strstr declaration.
        
        Any sane system should supply a strstr implementation sane enough for our
        application: locating "less" in the basename of the PAGER program.  We could
        use the gnulib strstr module here, but that seems to be more concerned about
        efficiency, and probably is overkill here.
        
        Taken from debian patch, author UNKNOWN, see:

        Drop PARAMS macro. Always include parameters in function prototypes.

        Updated German translation.
        
        I checked this translation myself, and offered the resulting file to the
        German translations team for upload to translation project.  That upload
        hasn't happened yet, but I expect it will eventually, and I don't want to
        delay the release for this.

2010-03-11  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Correct Compatibility documentation.
        
        wdiff uses whatever diff it finds, not necessarily GNU diff.

2010-03-11  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Updated titlepage.

2010-03-11  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Added comment lines for chapters and sections.
        
        This makes browsing the texinfo source a bit easier, even without the use
        fancy outline editor features.

2010-03-11  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Let makeinfo take care of pointer creation.
        
        Note (texinfo)makeinfo Pointer Creation:: about how this works.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Use @command, @option, @env instead of @code and @samp where appropriate.
        
        Package names like "diffutils" were stripped of any special formatting, but
        padded with the word "GNU" instead. "@code{termcap}" has been left as it is.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Ignore generated HTML documentation.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        More distinction for experimental.
        
        Added a few more case distinctions, and a dedicated node "Experimental".

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Drop sections for experimental tools in non-experimental texinfo runs.
        
        This only introduces guards and fixes some node pointers. It doesn't adjust
        content yet.  Some paragraphs will need different wording under different
        circumstances.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Introduce convenience targets to toggle experimental mode.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Ignore generated files from tex invocation.
        
        These files are created when the pdf and ps targets are executed in the doc
        directory.  As they are generated from source, we should ignore them.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Prepare autotools for conditional texinfo documentation of experimental parts.
        
        Introduce a new file, flags.texi, managed by autoconf.  It clears or sets a
        single flag, EXPERIMENTAL, which can then be used to control conditional
        content in the texinfo documentation.  This should make it easier to
        maintain documentation for both experimental and non-experimental builds,
        without omitting documentation or confusing users by providing documentation
        for uninstalled tools.
        
        Doing even more case distinctions for the individual apps seems overkill,
        though, so we won't go that far.

2010-03-10  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        First reference to wdiff2

2010-03-09  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Move wdiff before mdiff in texinfo documentation.
        
        As wdiff is the core product and mdiff experimental, this seems to be the
        proper order.

2010-03-09  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Set info document encoding to UTF-8.
        
        This allows us to use Unicode characters in the info document, like the name
        of François.

2010-02-27  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Drop redundant localedir definition.
        
        Recent automake already defines localedir, so there is no need for us to do
        the same again.

2010-02-27  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Reintroduce termcap configuration.
        
        Search the following libs for a tputs function: termcap termlib ncursesw and
        ncurses.  The first library to provide the tputs function will be linked in,
        and termcap support enabled.  There is a --with-termcap configure option to
        override this behaviour, e.g.  using --without-termcap or --with-termcap=foo
        to select libfoo instead of an autodetected library.
        
        The include statements have been adjusted to include term.h as well, as the
        ncurses man page for tputs recommends.  Configure doesn't check if the
        headers actually declare tputs; we simply assume the compiler will complain
        if things don't work out as expected.

2010-02-27  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Reindent preprocessor directives for mdiff as well.

2010-02-27  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Reindent preprocessor directives.
        
        This way the #endif properly line up with the corresponding #if and #else. 
        Now you can see more easily that tgetstr() gets declared if HAVE_TPUTS and
        not HAVE_TERMCAP_H.

2010-02-27  Santiago Vila  <sanvila@debian.org>

        Typo in README

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Disable fuzzy translations again.
        
        Had enabled fuzzy translations for the 0.5.95 pre-release only.  The
        intention was to give translators a better idea of what their translations
        will look like, and other users a better idea of what translations are there
        in theory.  Shouldn't use fuzzy translations in a final release, though.

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        wdiff 0.5.95 pre-release
        - translation improvements, many translations now fuzzy instead of missing
        - enabled use of fuzzy translations for this specific pre-release
        - introduced --enable-experimental configure switch

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Introduce --enable-experimental configure switch.
        
        This switch controls installation of mdiff, unify and wdiff2. That way, an
        unconfigured installation will only install wdiff, avoiding flooding the
        maintainers with bug reports about applications they themselves (yes, this
        includes me) don't really understand (yet).  On the other hand, the code
        does get released to a somewhat wider audience if it is included in the next
        wdiff release, so giving interested parties a way to toy with these apps
        might be a good thing and help their development.
        
        * configure.ac: generate substitutions from senable switch
        * man/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.am: use substitutions to decide what to install
        * man/Makefile.am, src/Makefile.am: auto-build binaries for help2man so that
        "make dist" without preceding "make" will succeed
        * README: Mention new flag, cleaned up some obsoleted information

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Added some copyright notices

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Let "make dist" rewrap message files.
        
        It seems that the message merging process tries to avoid long lines in the
        po file sources.  Shouldn't change anything for the logical strings. 
        Committing the changes anyway so we won't have to revert or ignore po files
        all the time.

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        po-file handling perl scripts: copyright, documentation, added to dist.
        
        Added a copyright comment as well as some pod documentation to the
        print-po.pl script and the msgitm.pm library it uses.  Adjusted Makefile.am
        to include these two scripts, as they might be useful for translators, and
        as translators from TP usually work on released tarballs not repository
        checkouts.

2010-02-02  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Better handling of escape sequences.
        
        Now escape sequences are evaluated by perl. This handles \\[\\nt"] at the
        moment, but can easily be extended to any other escape sequence that can be
        matched by the regular expression.  Not much point in expanding stuff like

        Wrapped another few overlong lines.

2010-02-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Adjust proper alignment of usage help for all commands.
        
        To faciliate this, I've added a perl script which simply prints all msgstr
        from a po file, in the order in which they are referenced in the source
        files.  That gives all usage strings one after the other.  I also
        implemented some primitive detection of overlong lines, and wrapped some
        translations to fit common terminal widths.

2010-02-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Adjust case of auto-pager short option.
        
        It's -A in mdiff and -a in wdiff and wdiff2.  The heuristics that migrated
        previous translations in some cases used the long option alone to identify a
        translation, causing this kind of issue.

2010-02-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Align wdiff usage text.
        
        Some changes to indentation to ensure that "wdiff --help" looks sane in most
        languages.  This only aligns translated strings, untranslated English
        messages might have a different alignment and therefore break the format. 
        Other tools besides wdiff might still have unaligned help.  In some cases
        the situation might even have deteriorated due to alignment of shared
        strings to now fit wdiff alone.  Aligning them all seems like too much work
        just now, as everything besides wdiff is kind of experimental in any case.

2010-02-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Manually adjust translations to pass gmsgfmt checks.
        
        As entries are still fuzzy, gmsgfmt won't deal with them by default.  But
        removing all gmo files and running 'GMSGFMT="gmsgfmt -f" update-gmo' listed
        me one file with problems after the other, until at last I had all of them
        adjusted.  As I don't speak most of the languages I edited, translators
        should still have a final look at everything marked fuzzy.

2010-02-01  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Fix length restriction on temporary file name.
        
        Older code used a fixed char array of length L_tmpnam for temporary file
        names and their templates.  This is WAY to short; on my GNU Linux system
        L_tmpnam was 20.  Instead of raising that limit to some other arbitrary
        value, I decided to dynamically allocate memory for the temporary filename
        instead.
        
        Fixes a bug reported by Karl Berry:

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Style improvements regarding memory management.
        
        Now we no longer cast allocated memory explicitely, as void* will cast to
        anything automatically.  Neither do we check that pointers are non-NULL
        before freeing them, as free(NULL) is defined to be a no-op.  Corresponding
        syntax checks have been enabled.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Moved VC_LIST_EXCEPT exceptions from .x-* files to cfg.mk.
        
        This is much cleaner, as it avoids having an extra revision-controlled file
        for every rule with exceptions.  The old exception files are still supported
        (and suitable if you happen to have long lists of such rules).  Therefore
        the change is backwards-compatible and thus suitable for inclusion into
        gnulib as well.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Improved style of config.h inclusion.
        
        This drops guards around the config.h include statements.  It also enables
        the corresponding syntax checks and configures system.h as an alternative to
        config.h, which is OK as system.h includes config.h at its very top.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Update list of gnulib-generated files.
        
        Seems our list of files generated by gnulib at configure-time and ignored by
        bzr was out of date.  Now I've got a tool to maintain it.  Also added a few
        missing files, which used to be generated in the past but seem to be simply
        imported as-is now.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Clean up include blocks.
        
        Simply include unistd.h and sys/stat.h and let gnulib take care of the rest.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Improve style of error invocations.
        
        Now all error messages are lower-case and without a period at the end. 
        Furthermore, EXIT_FAILURE is used instead of the magic constant 1. 
        Corresponding gnulib syntax checks have been enabled.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Moved auxiliary build files to build-aux directory.

        Update gnulib.
        
        This update includes 4a24fcd6cf5620964e71361c57c2b273225dc47a:
        "Avoid a link error due to the __printf__ symbol."

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Improvements and bug fixes to maint.mk.
        
        I've sent these fixes to bug-gnulib@gnu.org as well, and I'd expect them to
        end up in gnulib one day.  Including them into wdiff might help transfer
        ownership of my changes to the FSF without additional paperwork.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Enable gnulib maintainer-makefile.
        
        Also configured some things so that syntax checks won't fail. The list of
        skipped syntax checks in cfg.mk is actually quite long and should be reduced
        in the near future.  Some other syntax checks I've heeded already, which
        explains modifications to some other source files.
        
        As I assume noone will apply an ancient patch to autoconf anymore in any
        case, I'm dropping that (syntactically offensive) autoconf patch.  Anything
        modern autoconf still can't handle should be dealt with in autoconf itself.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Ignore release tarballs.

2010-01-21  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Upgrade to gettext-0.17.
        
        As gnulib-tool has to be run after gettextize/autopoint, because it
        overwrites some files from gettext, we have to have the gettext
        infrastructure in repository as long as we have gnulib there.  Probably best
        this way, because gnulib officially only supports latest gettext.
        
        Activated the gettext gnulib module as well.  This is in order to avoid
        problems with gnulib overwriting m4 files that gettext depends on with a
        version that unmodified gettext no longer can cope with.  In that situation,
        I'd now expect gnulib to provide adjusted gettext files, resolving any such
        issues.

2010-01-20  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Reindented wdiff.c.
        
        Changes suggested by GNU indent, but reviewed and adjusted manually.

2010-01-19  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Removed some more auto-generated files.
        
        All these files are automatically regenerated at one point or another. 
        Little point in keeping them all in the repository, as they aren't to be
        edited manually in any case.

2010-01-19  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Have automake add missing files.

2010-01-19  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Change GPL version to 3 or later.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Imported gnulib modules locale and sys_wait.                                              
        
        As we added those headers to several files recently, it seems prudent to
        have gnulib ensure they exist.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Ignoring a few more gnulib-generated files.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Updated gnulib.
        
        This is the result of a simple gnulib-tool --import. Haven't looked too
        closely, but I simply expect it to work.  The gnulib git tree was used as of
        revision 3b1d015225dd896c76cac5318db7982944aea238 (2010-01-17).

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Drop several generated files, especially build files.
        
        Instead I've added a script, autogen.sh, that generates all necessary build
        files using the autotools installed on the client's system.  Calling that
        from a fresh working tree should get your working tree into something on
        which the usual compile and make build process works as expected.  I expect
        that the release tarballs will contain those files automatically, so this
        change only affects people building from a repository snapshot.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Fix a bunch of errors reported by gcc -Wall.
        
        There were some missing header inclusions. For now I've included the
        headers, but if someone reports portability issues, we might have to check
        for them in configure and maybe provide fallbacks if they are unavailable.
        
        There were also some variables which gcc reports might get used
        uninitialized.  I initialized them to 0 or NULL, but I'm far from certain
        that this is what was originally intended.  Might as well be that they are
        an indication of more serious errors in those functions.
        
        Most other changes are cosmetic things to prevent warnings, like added
        braces and the likes.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Adjust a few printf conversions to avoid compiler warnings.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Added myself and Denver Gingerich to AUTHORS.

2010-01-18  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Split Usage messages for easier translation.
        
        Now there is a separate string for every line of Usage message output. That
        way, new options might be added in the future without invalidating the
        messages for existing options.  Furthermore it's now easier to share common
        options between different executables.
        
        The options themselves haven't been split, as arguments to some options
        require translations, and as having them translated separately makes it
        really difficult to align all options in a pleasing way, especially with
        multi-byte encodings or double-width logograms.  So translators have both
        the freedom and the responsibiluty to manage column alignment for their
        language.
        
        This change also turns a lot of "#if 0 ... #endif" into "/*** ... ***/" in
        order to avoid unneccessary translations for these options.  This is in
        response to an email by Benno Schulenberg:
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2008-06/msg00003.html

2010-01-06  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Allow unified diff as input.
        
        This change introduces a new flag, --diff-input (or -d), which will allow a
        single unified diff as input.  Two distinct files will be created from this
        and passed on to the normal wdiff comparison.
        
        See also http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2009-04/msg00000.html

2010-01-06  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Ignore auto-generated files.
        
        This list matches all files generated on my system during configure, make
        and make distcheck, with the obvious exception of the distribution tarball. 
        Many other files are modified in the process, so this list certainly doesn't
        match all auto-generated files.

2009-12-15  Martin von Gagern  <Martin.vGagern@gmx.net>

        Handle non-seekable input.
        
        In particular this allows the use of shell process substitutions as input.

        - fix "make check" so that it uses the newly-compiled wdiff binary instead of
        searching the PATH for it
        - this issue was first mentioned in the 0.5.93 release notes
        - issue also noted by Nelson H. F. Beebe:
        
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2008-06/msg00005.html
        
        - the fix was created with the help of Ralf Wildenhues' suggestion to use
        AUTOTEST_PATH on the Autoconf list:
        
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/autoconf/2008-06/msg00075.html

        AUTOTEST_PATH in the Autotest documentation:
        
        http://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf/manual/html_node/testsuite-Invocation.html

        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-08/msg00007.html
        
        - also reported by Christopher Vollick using Mac OS 10.4.11 with the following
        error output:
        
        /usr/bin/ld: Undefined symbols:
        _libintl_bindtextdomain
        _libintl_gettext
        _libintl_textdomain
        
        - this fix has been confirmed to work on Mac OS 10.4.11

2008-11-16  denverg

        - update to gnulib 20080701, automake 1.10.1, and autoconf 2.61; used the
        following commands:
        
        $ [gnulib-tool command from lib/Makefile.am header]
        $ aclocal -I m4
        $ autoreconf
        $ autoconf
        $ automake
        
        - remove #include for getline.h in mdiff.c; this is no longer needed because
        getline is available from stdio.h

2008-06-20  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.93
        - this version contains the following fixes:
        - split wdiff and wdiff2 help strings to facilitate translation
        - update gnulib modules to gnulib 2007-05-28
        - add getopt and regex gnulib modules for compiling without glibc
        - fix compiler warnings with GCC 3.4.2 on Solaris 8
        - add manpages to the distribution so users don't need help2man
        - for a complete description of the fixes, see the commit logs between this
        revision and the RELEASE_0_5_92 tag

2008-06-20  denverg

        - update po files based on previous commit (localize "'\n" and add note for
        translators that it's part of the previous string)

2008-06-20  denverg

        - localize "'\n", which is the end of "Launching `mdiff [args]", as recommended
        by Benno Schulenberg
        - add note for translators that the two strings are linked
        - chose not to combine into one string because that would have required some
        extra memory and possibly a lot (if there were lots of arguments); it's much
        easier to just send it to the output stream and forget about it

2008-06-20  denverg

        - update po files for previous commit (splitting wdiff and wdiff2 help strings)

2008-06-20  denverg

        - split help string for wdiff and wdiff2 into multiple parts as suggested by
        Benno Schulenberg
        - this will cause the common parts of the help strings to be combined for
        translators
        - the help string has been changed recently (to change -V to -v) so now is a
        good time to split the string
        - the next commit will update the po files

2008-06-20  denverg

        - update po files with new line numbers for wdiff.c and wdiff2.c, changed by
        previous commit to fix compiler warnings
        - add manpages so that users can check out from CVS and not need help2man;
        originally reported by Christopher Vollick

2008-06-20  denverg

        - fix warnings when compiling with GCC 3.4.2 on Solaris 8:
        
        warning: passing arg 2 of `rpl_getopt_long' discards qualifiers from pointer target type
        
        - using fix by Eric Blake for m4's main.c described at:
        
        http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/m4-patches/2006-06/msg00024.html

2008-06-20  denverg

        - include manpages in the distribution package
        - before this fix, manpages were being generated at compile time, which caused
        systems without help2man to fail during the make step
        - reported by Christopher Vollick

2008-06-20  denverg

        - update autotools-generated scripts after adding the getopt and regex modules
        from gnulib in the last commit

2008-06-20  denverg

        - add getopt and regex modules from gnulib; these are required on systems that
        do not have the glibc extensions
        - reported by Christopher Vollick after he received compile errors when trying
        to build on Solaris 8
        - autotools-generated scripts will be updated in the next commit

2008-06-20  denverg

        - update scripts after gnulib 2007-05-28 update ("autoreconf; autoconf;
        automake")

2008-06-20  denverg

        - update to gnulib 2007-05-28 ("gnulib-tool --import")
        - autotools update ("autoreconf; autoconf; automake") will be in next commit

2008-06-19  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.92
        - bump version; along with the expected effects, it also fills in some empty
        fields in tests/testsuite and tests/package.m4
        - see commit logs since the RELEASE_0_5_91 tag for a list of the fixes in 0.5.92

2008-06-19  denverg

        - keep all files resulting from "./configure; make dist; make distclean" and
        nothing more
        - this makes it easier for packagers and other keeners to keep up with the
        latest build on their own machine
        - this has the side-effect of updating all the po files and wdiff.pot as well
        as doc/version.texi
        - reported by Santiago Vila:

        - use mkstemp instead of tmpnam to eliminate race condition
        - added create_template_filename to find an appropriate temporary directory
        - reported by Karl Berry and Debian team:
        - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-07/msg00005.html

        - add mdiff binary to "make install" as reported by Benno Schulenberg at:
        - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-10/msg00000.html
        - error report:
        
        Upon installation, wdiff forgets to install the mdiff program,
        although it does install the man page and Info document for it.

2008-06-19  denverg

        - fix some errors in the documentation; reported by Benno Schulenberg at:
        - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-10/msg00000.html
        - the error report:
        
        In wdiff.texi the --statistics option for mdiff is described twice.
        Also --help and --version occur twice; their second occurrences are
        straight copies from the wdiff section, and mistakenly mention -h
        and -V as synonyms -- these work for wdiff, but not for mdiff.
        
        The Info doc further mistakenly mentions -c as synonym for
        --ignore-case (should be -i, also for wdiff), and -a as synonym
        for --autopager (should be -A, but only for mdiff).  It looks like
        there may be several more errors like this.
        
        
        (note: the --statistics option was completely removed from the mdiff
        documentation because mdiff does not have such an option)

2008-06-18  denverg

        - import new and updated translations from the Translation Project

2008-06-18  denverg

        - update wdiff.texi to new conventions and regenerate wdiff.info; patch by
        Karl Berry:
        - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-08/msg00001.html
        - description of change:
        
        Some simple diffs for the wdiff manual.
        
        1) use the standard @dircategory/@direntry cmds instead of the old (very
        old) INFO-DIR-ENTRY stuff.  (With the category names and alignments set
        to match other packages.)
        
        2) use @copying instead of @ifinfo.
        
        3) move @contents to after the title page where it belongs.

2008-06-18  denverg

        - set textdomain; patch by Benno Schulenberg:
        - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-09/msg00006.html
        - "The output messages of 'wdiff' don't actually get translated, as wdiff
        forgets to set its textdomain."

2008-06-18  denverg

        - update wdiff.info to reflect new version of makeinfo (was using 3.12i; now
        using 4.8) and change in --version short option from -V to -v (see last
        commit)

2008-06-18  denverg

        - change the --version short option -V to -v for consistency with GNU diff and
        the wdiff 0.5 manpage; reported at:
        - http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/wdiff-bugs/2007-09/msg00002.html
        - http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=438461
        - wdiff.info still needs updating; this will be done in the next commit because
        it contains a lot of unrelated changes due to a new version of makeinfo

2008-06-18  denverg

        - change return type of main from void to int in wdiff and wdiff2; fixes
        compiler warning

2008-06-18  denverg

        - remove clean-local's dependence on the non-existent clean-local-legacy target
        - this dependence was introduced when copying in the test suite rules from
        libtool, which has a set of rules for legacy tests (including
        clean-local-legacy); wdiff does not have any legacy tests

2008-06-18  denverg

        - merging translations with template file (msgmerge --update)
        - with the updates in CVS, the make step will be faster because the
        msgmerge --update is not required at build time

2007-11-19  denverg

        - back out gnulib updates; these cause autoreconf to fail because the
        gnulib updates were incomplete (did not add/update all files)
        - not fixing gnulib update because the gnulib files will eventually be
        migrated out of CVS

2007-11-18  denverg

        - update gnulib files to those found in gnulib 2007-05-28

2007-07-11  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.91 (continued)
        - adding files that were accidentally left out of the last commit

2007-07-11  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.91
        - replaced old autotools scripts with new scripts created from scratch
        to work with more recent versions of the autotools
        - replaced files in the lib directory with their Gnulib counterparts
        - moved readpipe.c and writepipe.c to src because they Gnulib does not
        appear to provide equivalent functionality
        - modified the test scripts to work with a more recent autom4te version
        - some syntax was not recognized by the newer autom4te
        - moved i18n directory to po and updated i18n files to reflect changes
        in gettext
        - added man directory and necessary Makefiles to create man pages

2007-06-22  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.90
        - updated mailing list address for all files except i18n (these will be
        fixed later)
        - starting to use recommended pretest version number convention for GNU
        packages (x.y.90)

2007-06-20  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.4-pre3
        - correct build problems by resetting timestamps for several files
        within the configure script
        - this is done so that people checking out from CVS will have the
        correct timestamps because CVS does not keep modified dates
        - ideally we wouldn't need this, but it looks like autoconf, automake,
        or some other utility requires the timestamps to be a certain way or
        it complains loudly
        - revert i18n/sv.mo to 0.5g version (not sure why it had changed)

2007-06-19  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.4-pre2
        - replaced Makefile.in, aclocal.m4, configure, and configure.in with
        versions from 0.5g
        - for some reason, these had been replaced by freshly-generated files,
        which seem to cause problems with the build

2007-06-19  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.4-pre1
        - updating to wdiff 0.5g code from Francois Pinard
        - complete list of changes will be available in the final 0.5.4 commit
        - this version currently has some build issues, which will be described
        on the mailing list (wdiff-bugs@gnu.org)

2007-06-19  denverg

        - removing files deleted in 0.5.4 because there are problems committing
        when a file has been deleted but was updated since that point (CVS
        reports a conflict, which appears to be difficult to solve)

2007-06-17  denverg

        - change version from 0.5.1 to 0.5.3 to prevent ambiguity
        - 0.5.1 is referenced in the de, fr, no, and pl .po files in the i18n
        directory of wdiff 0.5g
        - 0.5.2 is referenced in the cs, es, nl, ru, and sv .po files in the
        i18n directory of wdiff 0.5g
        - 0.5.1 and 0.5.2 are referenced in the BACKLOG file of wdiff 0.5g
        - none of the above 0.5.1 or 0.5.2 are related to this version (now
        0.5.3); they relate to a separate branch (0.5g) which will be merged
        into this tree later

2007-06-16  denverg

        - updated version strings (from 0.5 to 0.5.1)
        - updated ChangeLog and NEWS with changes between 0.5 and 0.5.1

2007-06-15  denverg

        wdiff 0.5.1
        - changes from wdiff 0.5
        - updated license notices to reflect new FSF address
        - added license notices to files that did not have them

        * Version 0.5.4.

        * ChangeLog: relevant entries moved from root ChangeLog to ChangeLog
        files in subdirectories (such as src, lib, etc.)

        * : TODO: add relevant entries here

2007-06-17  Denver Gingerich (denver@ossguy.com)

        * Version 0.5.3, changes are relative to Version 0.5 (see 1994-11-05).

        * error.c, getopt1.c, getopt.c, getopt.h, Makefile.in, pathmax.h,
        readpipe.c, strstr.c, texinfo.tex, wdiff.c, writepipe.c, xmalloc.c:
        Update license notices to reflect new FSF address.

1999-07-05  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Do not call fp_PROG_ECHO, as AT_CONFIG does it.

        * Makefile.am, acconfig.h, configure.in: Prepare for fp_WITH_GETTEXT.

1998-12-07  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in (ALL_LINGUAS): Add Russian.

1998-11-18  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Version 0.5g.

        * configure.in: Version 0.5e.

        * configure.in: Use AT_CONFIG.
        Substitute tests/atconfig rather than tests/preset.

1998-11-13  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.am (SUBDIRS): Add m4.  Use -I m4 on aclocal.

        * PATCHES-AC: New file, from elsewhere.
        * Makefile.am (EXTRA_DIST): Adjusted.

        * README-mdiff: New file.

        * configure.in: Substitute in m4/Makefile.
        Use jmFUNC_MALLOC and jm_FUNC_REALLOC.
        * acconfig.h: Describe malloc and realloc.

        * missing: New file, from elsewhere.

        * configure.in: Version 0.5d.

1997-02-12  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Derive src/cbars from src/cbars.in.

        * configure.in: Derive tests/preset from tests/preset.in.
        Check how to use echo with newlines suppressed.
        * acinclude.m4: Add definition for fp_PROG_ECHO.

        * configure.in: Cleanup tputs detection.  Do not just consider we
        need -ltermlib on Xenix and -ltermcap everywhere else.  Instead,
        check for LIB.h only if tputs if found in -lLIB, for LIB in
        termcap, termlib, curses and ncurses.
        * acconfig.h: Add documentation for HAVE_TPUTS.

1995-06-22  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Use AC_TYPE_SIZE_T.

1995-03-26  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Define SCRIPTS separately from PROGRAMS.  Use
        fp_PROG_INSTALL instead of AC_PROG_INSTALL.
        * Makefile.in: Adjusted accordingly.

1995-03-19  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Remove GLOCALE, add LINGUAS, use fp_WITH_CATALOGS.
        * Makefile.in: Modify accordingly.
        * acconfig.h: Add description for WITH_CATALOGS.

1995-02-24  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Put gdiff test in parentheses, because Bourne
        shell otherwise complains about an inexisting program.
        Reported by Kaveh R. Ghazi.

1995-02-21  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in, Makefile.in: Replace `date' by `echo timestamp'.
        Reported by Greg McGary and Jim Meyering.

1994-12-01  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in, Makefile.in, acconfig.h: Rename PRODUCT to PACKAGE.

1994-11-26  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Check for <libintl.h> and <locale.h>.

1994-11-11  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Check libraries before functions, else there is
        little chance that tputs will ever be found in -ltermcap.
        Reported by Andreas Schwab.

1994-11-05  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Release 0.5.

1994-11-02  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Check for const only after having found possible
        ANSIfying compiler flags, this is of no use to check it before.

1994-11-01  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in: Clean up, following the one in shar utilities.
        I will not detail all the changes here.
        * configure.in: Likewise.
        * acconfig.h: New file.

1994-04-13  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in (Makefile, etc.): Adapt for Autoconf 1.8.

1994-03-22  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Use AC_PROGRAMS_PATH instead of AC_PROGRAMS_CHECK,
        while defining DIFF and PAGER.  Add diff to the programs tested,
        so its full path is saved.  Avoiding SGI gdiff, define DIFF to
        non-pathed diff, instead of empty.

1993-12-24  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in: General cleanup.  Handle .stamp-h.in,
        mkinstalldirs, install.sh, FAQ and HINTS.
        * configure.in: Check for ranlib.
        * mkinstalldirs, install.sh: New, from elsewhere.

        * FAQ, HINTS: New files, for alleviating README a little.

1993-06-09  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in (dist): Replace "echo `pwd`" by a mere "pwd".
        Create a gzip file.

1993-02-27  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Use AC_HAVE_LIBRARY for -lmalloc, instead of
        explicit code.

1993-02-06  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in: In dist goal, ensure 777 mode for directories, so
        older tar's will restore file modes properly.

1993-01-07  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in: Replace -DHAVE_CONFIG_H back to $(DEFS), since
        Autoconf now handles this appropriately.

1993-01-01  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in: Using autoheader, derive config.h.in from
        configure.in.  Distribute config.h.in.
        Use config.status for reconstructing config.h from config.h.in.
        Remove config.h in distclean.
        * configure.in: Create config.h from config.h.in.

1992-12-30  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Force xmalloc.o in whenever alloca.o is needed.
        Reported by Nelson H.F. Beebe.

        * configure.in: Use AC_VPRINTF, check for strerror().

1992-12-23  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Release 0.04.

        * Makefile.in: Some cleanup before the release.

1992-12-21  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in: Distribute the THANKS file.

        * Makefile.in: Do not distribute collate.el, which lacks the
        required Copyright assignment to the FSF.

1992-12-05  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in (realclean): Remove configure.

        * configure.in: Use AC_ISC_POSIX for defining -posix if necessary.
        Reported by Karl Berry.

1992-11-23  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in (dist): Get .fname from the current directory name,
        instead of from version.c.  I need updating many files manually,
        when the version changes, version.c is just one of them.

        * cbars.sh: New.  By default, cbars is not part of PROGS.
        * Makefile.in: Prepare, install, and distribute it.

1992-11-21  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Use AC_CONST.

        * configure.in: Avoid gdiff for X as found on SGI systems.  The
        test presumes gdiff returns non-zero status if DISPLAY is defined
        to be empty.
        Reported by Jim Meyering.

1992-11-13  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Makefile.in (dist): chmod a+r before making the tar file.

        * aclocal.m4: Update FP_STDC_CHECK, replacing by FP_PROTOTYPES.
        * configure.in: Adjust accordingly.

1992-08-23  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Split FP_STDC_CHECK out into aclocal.m4.
        * aclocal.m4: New.
        * Makefile.in: Distribute aclocal.m4.

1992-08-19  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * collatew.el: New, generalizes Emacs LISP `compage-windows'.
        * Makefile.in: Distribute collatew.el.
        Reported by James Ganong.

        * configure.in: To define DIFF, also try gnudiff and diffgnu, not
        only gdiff and diff.

1992-08-18  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Release 0.03 to alt.sources and ftp.uu.net:/tmp.

        * configure.in: Add FP_STDC_CHECK, then use it.  Add AC_PROG_LEX.

        * Makefile.in: Various corrections for being truly able to make in
        subdirectories.

1992-08-17  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * configure.in: Check for improper `const' support.

        * configure.in: Check for alloca.

1992-08-12  François Pinard  <pinard@iro.umontreal.ca>

        * Release 0.01 to alt.sources and ftp.uu.net:/tmp.

        * configure.in: Try defining PAGER to less or more.  Also use our
        strstr if necessary.

        * configure.in: Try defining DIFF to gdiff or diff.
        * Makefile.in: Transmit DIFF to wdiff.c, which handles it already.

        * configure.in: Use -ltermlib on LIBS for Xenix, -ltermcap
        otherwise; once this done, test for `tputs' availability.

        * COPYING.LIB: New.
        * Makefile.in: Distributing COPYING.LIB.
