+				 --------
+[bash-2.05 released]
+
+				   4/10
+				   ----
+redir.c
+	- check return value of fclose() in write_here_document() for error
+	  returns; don't just rely on fwrite() failing
+
+support/bashbug.sh
+	- set TMPDIR to /tmp if it's null or unset
+	- use $TMPDIR in the TEMP tempfile name template
+	- fixed the call to `mktemp', if it exists, to make it more portable
+
+jobs.c
+	- if WCONTINUED is not defined, define it to 0 and add a define for
+	  WIFCONTINUED(wstatus) which expands to 0
+	- add WCONTINUED to the flags passed to waitpid(2) in waitchld()
+	- don't increment children_exited if waitpid's status is WIFCONTINUED,
+	  since we don't want to call a SIGCHLD trap handler in this case
+	- in waitchld(), we set child->running to 1 if WIFCONTINUED(status)
+	  is non-zero
+	- make sure pretty_print_job doesn't check for the core dump bit if
+	  the process has been continued; it's only valid if the job is dead
+	- in set_job_status_and_cleanup, set the job to JRUNNING if job_state
+	  is non-zero and the job was previously marked as JSTOPPED
+
+configure.in
+	- add -DBROKEN_DIRENT_D_INO to interix LOCAL_CFLAGS
+
+lib/glob/glob.c
+	- if BROKEN_DIRENT_D_INO is defined, define REAL_DIR_ENTRY to 1
+
+jobs.c
+	- in kill_pid, we only need to block and unblock SIGCHLD if the
+	  `group' argument is non-zero, since otherwise we just call `kill'
+	  on the pid argument
+
+version.c
+	- update copyright date to 2001
+
+bashline.c
+	- prog_complete_return needs to take a `const char *' as its first
+	  argument
+	- history_completion_generator needs to take a `const char *' as
+	  its first argument, and `text' needs to be a `const char *'
+
+				   4/11
+				   ----
+redir.c
+	- fixed a weird typo in redir_special_open, case RF_DEVFD, added
+	  call to all_digits before call to legal_number
+	- fixed do_redirection_internal to call legal_number instead of atol(3)
+	  when translating r_duplicating_{in,out}put_word, so it handles
+	  overflow better
+	- produce an error message in redirection_error for out-of-range
+	  file descriptors
+	- change allocation strategy in redirection_error so we don't have to
+	  malloc scratch memory if redirection_expand() fails
+
+jobs.h
+	- added defines for `running' member of a struct process
+
+general.c
+	- fix legal_number to return 0 when strtol(3) reports overflow or
+	  underflow
+
+parse.y
+	- changed read_token_word to call legal_number instead of atoi(3)
+
+input.c
+	- return -1/EBADF from close_buffered_fd if fd is < 0
+
+command.h
+	- fixed bogus comment about IS_DESCRIPTOR in description of the
+	  REDIRECTEE struct
+
+print_cmd.c
+	- change cprintf's 'd' modifier code to display negative numbers as
+	  an out-of-range value.  We can do this only because the only use
+	  of %d is to output file descriptor numbers in redirections
+
+support/mksignames.c
+	- need to include config.h to get a possible value for
+	  UNUSABLE_RT_SIGNALS
+
+				   4/16
+				   ----
+lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
+	- corrected a small error in one description of M-DEL
+
+				   4/17
+				   ----
+stringlib.c
+	- need to initialize `ind' before calls to RESIZE_MALLOCED_BUFFER
+	  in strcreplace()
+
+support/bashversion.c
+	- new file, prints bash version information
+
+Makefile.in
+	- rules for building bashversion and linking it to version.o
+
+				   4/24
+				   ----
+conftypes.h
+	- new file with HOSTTYPE, OSTYPE, MACHTYPE, etc. defines from
+	  variables.h
+
+variables.h, version.c
+	- include conftypes.h
+
+patchlevel.h
+	- new file, contains define for PATCHLEVEL.  Doing away with the old
+	  scheme of having the information in configure.in
+
+version.c
+	- include patchlevel.h
+
+Makefile.in
+	- run bashversion -p to find patch level rather than have configure
+	  substitute in a value
+	- pass -S ${top_srcdir} to support/mkversion.sh
+
+support/mkversion.sh
+	- don't put PATCHLEVEL define into version.h, but accept and ignore
+	  a -p option
+	- take a new -S srcdir option
+	- find the patch level by parsing it out of patchlevel.h
+
+configure.in
+	- hard-code BASHVERS assignment instead of reading it from a file
+	- remove BASHPATCH; don't substitute it
+
+_distribution,_patchlevel
+	- removed
+
+				   4/26
+				   ----
+shell.c
+	- call init_noninteractive() in open_shell_script if forced_interactive
+	  is non-zero (the shell was started with -i) and fd_is_tty is 0
+	  (the script file is a real file, not something like /dev/stdin),
+	  since it wasn't done earlier
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- change for POSIX.2 compliance when conversion errors are encountered
+	  when processing %d, %u, and floating point conversion operators
+	  (print a warning message, return the value accumulated at the time
+	  of the error -- which is always 0 -- and exit with a non-zero status)
+
+command.h
+	- added CMD_COMMAND_BUILTIN for use by the `command' builtin and the
+	  code in execute_cmd.c
+
+builtins/command.def
+	- add CMD_COMMAND_BUILTIN to the created command's flags
+
+				    5/1
+				    ---
+configure.in
+	- add call to AC_C_CONST to test `const' compiler behavior
+	- add call to AC_C_INLINE to test `inline' compiler behavior
+	- add call to AC_C_STRINGIZE to test cpp #x stringizing operator
+
+config.h.in
+	- add `#undef const' for configure to substitute
+	- add `#undef inline' for configure to substitute
+	- add `#undef HAVE_STRINGIZE' for configure to substitute
+
+include/stdc.h
+	- remove code that defines or undefines `const' and `inline'
+	- change the __STRING macro to be defined depending on the value
+	  of HAVE_STRINGIZE
+
+lib/malloc/malloc.c
+	- change the __STRING macro to be defined depending on the value
+	  of HAVE_STRINGIZE
+
+lib/readline/{readline,rlprivate}.h
+	- moved rl_get_termcap to readline.h, making it a public function
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- new #define, RL_READLINE_VERSION, hex-encoded library version
+	  number, currently set to 0x0402
+	- new public int variable, rl_readline_version
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- #define RL_READLINE_VERSION if it is not already defined (which it
+	  should be in readline.h)
+	- initialize rl_readline_version to RL_READLINE_VERSION
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo
+	- documented rl_get_termcap
+	- documented rl_readline_version
+
+jobs.c
+	- job_exit_status should return an int, not a WAIT (undetected
+	  before because on most POSIX-like systems a WAIT is really an int)
+
+builtins/evalfile.c
+	- added FEVAL_REGFILE (file must be a regular file) to accepted
+	   _evalfile flags
+	- fc_execute_file() adds FEVAL_REGFILE to _evalfile flags.  This
+	  means that startup files and files read with `.' no longer need
+	  to be regular files
+
+				    5/2
+				    ---
+
+lib/termcap/Makefile.in
+	- fix target for installed termcap library (normally unused)
+
+lib/tilde/Makefile.in
+	- fix install target to install in $(libdir) (normally unused)
+
+Makefile.in
+	- don't make $(man3dir) since there's nothing installed there
+
+Makefile.in,doc/Makefile.in
+	- change `man1ext' to `.1', `man3ext' to `.3'
+	- change appropriate install targets to use new values of man[13]ext
+	- use `test ...' instead of `[...]'
+	- add support for DESTDIR root installation prefix, for package
+	  building (installdirs, install, install-strip, uninstall targets)
+
+builtins/common.c
+	- new function int get_exitstat(WORD_LIST *list) returns an eight-bit
+	  exit status value for use in return, exit, logout builtins
+
+builtins/common.h
+	- extern declaration for get_exitstat()
+
+builtins/{exit,return}.def
+	- call get_exitstat where appropriate
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- add support for "'" flag character as posix 1003.2-200x d6 says
+	- fix core dump when user-supplied field width or precision is 0
+	- fix to printstr() to handle zero-length precision with `%b' format
+	  specifier (printf '%.0b-%.0s\n' foo bar)
+	- fix to printstr() to treat a negative field width as a positive
+	  field width with left-justification
+	- fix to mklong to avoid static buffers, which can always be overrun
+	  by someone sufficiently motivated
+
+bashline.c
+	- change var in add_host_name to type `size_t' for passing to xrealloc
+
+				    5/3
+				    ---
+execute_cmd.c
+	- change restore_signal_mask to accept a sigset_t *, since a sigset_t
+	  may not fit into a pointer, change call
+
+unwind_prot.c
+	- use a union UWP in restore_variable when restoring a variable whose
+	  size is the same as sizeof(int), the reverse of the method used to
+	  store it in unwind_protect_int
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- use a #define LENMODS containing the length modifiers instead of
+	  testing against each possible modifier character, save any mod
+	  character found
+	- add support for ISO C99 length specifiers `j', `t', and `z'
+	- if `L' modifier is supplied with a floating point conversion char,
+	  pass a `long double' to printf if HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE is defined
+
+configure.in,config.h.in
+	- call AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE to check for `long double'; define
+	  HAVE_LONG_DOUBLE if supported
+
+bashline.c
+	- fix an inadvertantly-unclosed comment in attempt_shell_completion
+	- make set_saved_history return a value
+	- make dynamic_complete_history return a useful value
+
+{make_cmd,execute_cmd,shell,subst,trap,variables,input,unwind_prot,test,
+pcomplete}.c
+	- removed some declared-but-unused variables
+
+builtins/{cd,enable,fc,set,setattr,type,umask,printf,complete}.def
+	- removed some declared-but-unused variables
+
+lib/sh/{zread,netopen}.c
+	- removed some declared-but-unused variables
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- in execute_arith_command, use a long variable to hold the result
+	  of evalexp(), since that's what it returns
+
+builtins/evalstring.c
+	- make cat_file return -1 on a read or write error
+
+lib/sh/stringlib.c
+	- make merge_stringlists() return the right value
+
+				    5/7
+				    ---
+pcomplete.c
+	- remove typo that caused empty declaration (;;)
+
+parse.y
+	- fix yyerror() to accept a single string argument; fix callers
+
+trap.c
+	- cast pointer to long instead of int when printing message with
+	  internal_warning() in run_pending_traps()
+
+subst.c
+	- fix process_substitute to handle stdin being closed
+
+test.c
+	- change `while' to `if' in and() and or(), since the loop isn't
+	  actually performed -- there's an unconditional `return' in the
+	  loop body
+	- check for integer overflow of arguments to `-t'
+
+lib/sh/netopen.c
+	- change _getserv() to reject negative port/service numbers
+
+expr.c
+	- fix strlong() to not convert the base specification from long to
+	  int before checking for overflow, since truncation on machines
+	  where sizeof(int) != sizeof(long) may mask errors
+
+builtins/{jobs,kill,wait}.def
+	- use legal_number instead of atoi when converting strings to pid_t;
+	  check for numeric overflow
+
+input.c
+	- fix for cygwin in b_fill_buffer -- off-by-one error when checking
+	  buffer for \r\n termination
+
+general.h
+	- new #define INT_STRLEN_BOUND(t), computes max length of string
+	  representing integer value of type T, possibly including a sign
+	  character
+	- include <limits.h> if it's present
+
+{execute_cmd,findcmd,test}.c
+	- don't include <limits.h>, since general.h does it now
+
+{execute_cmd,lib/sh/itos,pcomplete,print_cmd,subst,variables}.c
+	- use INT_STRLEN_BOUND instead of static array sizes when converting
+	  various strings to integer values
+
+shell.h
+	- struct fd_bitmap now uses an `int' size, since it's bounded by
+	  the number of file descriptors, which must fit into an `int'
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- FD_BITMAP_DEFAULT_SIZE is now 32, not 32L
+	- new_fd_bitmap takes an `int' size parameter, not a `long'
+
+execute_cmd.h
+	- change prototype for new_fd_bitmap()
+
+test.c
+	- fix test_stat to check for overflow when parsing the integer file
+	  descriptor number; return ENOENT instead of EBADF for files that
+	  are not open
+
+hashlib.c
+	- don't discard the upper 32 bits of the random value, if present
+
+lib/readline/shell.c
+	- use the same INT_STRLEN_BOUND mechanism to decide how much space to
+	  allocated in sh_set_lines_and_columns
+
+				    5/8
+				    ---
+aclocal.m4
+	- add check for libtinfo (termcap-specific portion of ncurses-5.2) to
+	  BASH_CHECK_LIB_TERMCAP
+	- new macro, RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION, checks version of installed
+	  readline library and (optionally) writes version #defines to
+	  config.h.  Bash doesn't use the version defines
+
+configure.in
+	- call RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION instead of support/rlvers.sh
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- fix execute_shell_script and the WHITECHAR and STRINGCHAR macros
+	  to check array bounds before indexing into the sample string
+
+unwind_prot.[ch]
+	- import new versions submitted by Paul Eggert <eggert@twinsun.com>
+	  with a couple of changes for backwards compatibility, so the rest
+	  of the source doesn't need to be changed yet
+
+jobs.c
+	- use unwind_protect_var on last_made_pid in run_sigchld_trap
+
+builtins/bind.def
+	- use unwind_protect_var on rl_outstream
+
+general.c
+	- rework print_rlimtype to use INT_STRLEN_BOUND and handle the
+	  most negative number correctly
+
+expr.c
+	- `tokval' should have been a `long', since all arithmetic is done
+	  as longs
+
+builtins/history.def
+	- consolidate tests for valid history position in one block to
+	  avoid duplicate code and strings
+
+builtins/ulimit.def
+	- fix check for overflow when setting limit to work when int is 32
+	  bits and RLIMTYPE is 64
+
+lib/sh/tmpfile.c
+	- don't truncate the result of time(3) to int; just use time_t,
+	  since it's being assigned to an `unsigned long'
+
+mailcheck.c
+	- use legal_number instead of atoi in time_to_check_mail() to catch
+	  more numeric errors; consolidate error checking in one block
+	- last_time_mail_checked should be a time_t
+
+				    5/9
+				    ---
+builtins/set.def
+	- recognize `set [-+]o nolog' if HISTORY is defined
+
+bashline.c
+	- new variable `dont_save_function_defs', set by `set -o nolog';
+	  currently ignored
+
+command.h
+	- the `dest' member of a REDIRECTEE is now an `int'
+
+parse.y,redir.c
+	- changed uses of `redir.test' (where redir is a REDIRECTEE) since
+	  it's now an int
+
+lib/readline/rlstdc.h
+	- don't mess around with `const', rely on configure to supply a
+	  proper definition if the compiler doesn't support it
+
+lib/tilde/tilde.h
+	- include <config.h> if HAVE_CONFIG_H is defined
+	- don't mess around with `const', rely on configure
+
+builtins/shopt.def
+	- new read-only `shopt' option, login_shell, non-zero if shell is a
+	  login shell (as decided by shell.c)
+	- new function set_login_shell(), sets shopt private value of
+	  login_shell
+
+builtins/common.h
+	- new extern declaration for set_login_shell
+
+shell.c
+	- call set_login_shell after setting value of login_shell (in
+	  main() and set_shell_name())
+
+parse.y
+	- added new `\A' prompt string escape sequence:  time in 24-hour
+	  HH:MM format
+
+configure.in, config.h.in
+	- check for <grp.h>, define HAVE_GRP_H if found
+
+builtins/complete.def
+	- add new `-A group/-g' option to complete group names
+
+pcomplete.h
+	- new define for CA_GROUP, used with group name completion
+
+pcomplete.c
+	- add code to support CA_GROUP group name completion
+
+bashline.c
+	- new function, bash_groupname_completion_function(), supports
+	  programmable completion of group names
+
+bashline.h
+	- extern declaration for bash_groupname_completion_function
+
+lib/readline/bind.c
+	- new inputrc variable, `match-hidden-files', controls completion
+	  matching files beginning with a `.' (on Unix)
+
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- new variable, _rl_match_hidden_files, mirrors `match-hidden-files'
+	  inputrc variable
+
+lib/readline/rlprivate.h
+	- extern declaration for _rl_match_hidden_files
+
+builtins/hash.def
+	- new `-t' option to list hash values for each filename argument
+
+builtins/read.def
+	- alarm(3) takes an `unsigned int' argument, not int
+	- check for arithmetic overflow with -t and -n options
+
+input.c
+	- check for read error before doing \r\n translation on cygwin in
+	  b_fill_buffer
+	- reset bp->b_used to 0 instead of leaving it at -1 on read error
+	  in b_fill_buffer
+
+builtins/shopt.def
+	- new functions, shopt_setopt(name, mode) and
+	  shopt_listopt(name, mode) to give the rest of the shell an easy
+	  interface
+
+builtins/common.h
+	- extern declarations for shopt_setopt and shopt_listopt
+
+shell.c
+	- new invocation options -O and +O, to list or set/unset shopt
+	  options like +o/-o sets and unsets `set -o' options
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- document `set -o nolog'
+	- document `login_shell' shopt option
+	- document new `\A' prompt string escape sequence
+	- document new `-t' option to `hash'
+	- document new `[+-]O' invocation option
+
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- add text to `Invoking Bash' section defining a login shell; text
+	  taken from man page
+
+doc/bash.1, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
+	- documented new complete/compgen `-A group/-g' option
+
+lib/readline/doc/{rluser.texinfo,readline.3}, doc/bash.1
+	- documented new `match-hidden-files' inputrc variable
+
+				   5/10
+				   ----
+configure.in
+	- fix AC_CHECK_PROG(ar, ...)
+	- add AC_CHECK_TYPE for ssize_t
+
+config.h.in
+	- new #undef for ssize_t
+
+lib/sh/zread.c
+	- int -> ssize_t fixes to mirror modern declarations of read and write
+	- the `off' variable in zsyncfd should be an off_t since it computes
+	  a file offset
+	- the local buffer `lbuf' is now char, since it's not nice to pass
+	  unsigned char * to read(2), and the values from it are assigned to
+	  a char anyway
+	- lind and lused are now size_t, since they index into a buffer
+	- set lused to 0 on read error
+
+lib/sh/zwrite.c
+	- change second argument to type `char *', since ISO C says you have
+	  to pass a `char *' to `write'
+
+externs.h
+	- fix extern declarations of zread, zread1, zreadc, and zwrite
+	- prototype extern declaration of qsort_string_compare
+	- add extern declaration for history_delimiting_chars() from parse.y
+
+input.h
+	- b_used and b_inputp members ofr struct BSTREAM are now size_t
+
+builtins/evalstring.c
+	- the number of chars read with zread in cat_file should be assigned
+	  to a variable of type ssize_t
+
+input.c
+	- the number of chars read with zread in b_fill_buffer should be
+	  assigned to a variable of type ssize_t
+	- `localbuf' is now type char[], since POSIX says you shouldn't pass
+	  unsigned char * to read(2)
+	- in getc_with_restart(), use a variable of type unsigned char to
+	  get a value from the local buffer and return it
+	- in ungetc_with_restart, explicitly return the character arg passed
+	  to avoid relying on localbuf being unsigned char
+
+subst.c
+	- the number of chars read with zread in read_comsub should be
+	  assigned to a variable of type ssize_t
+
+mksyntax.c
+	- instead of casting to unsigned char * in addcstr, use a variable
+	  of type unsigned char and let the compiler do the work
+
+parse.y
+	- instead of casting to unsigned char * in yy_readline_get, use a
+	  variable of type unsigned char and let the compiler do the work
+	- ditto for yy_string_get and shell_getc (cast to unsigned char)
+
+subst.c
+	- instead of casting to unsigned char when assigning to ifscmap in
+	  expand_word_internal, use a variable of type unsigned char and
+	  let the compiler do the work
+
+lib/sh/strtrans.c
+	- instead of casting to unsigned char in ansic_quote, use a variable
+	  of type unsigned char and let the compiler do the work
+
+builtins/evalstring.c
+	- remove extern declarations for zwrite and run_trap_cleanup; they're
+	  in externs.h
+	- prototype cat_file forward declaration
+
+Makefile.in
+	- remove -I$(includedir) from INCLUDES and SUBDIR_INCLUDES
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- change RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION to set RL_PREFIX, RL_LIBDIR,
+	  and RL_INCLUDEDIR to what it used to test the installed readline
+	  library version for use by the caller
+	- change RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION to not compute ac_cv_rl_prefix if
+	  the caller has already assigned it a value
+	- rename _rl_prefix -> ac_cv_rl_prefix, _rl_libdir -> ac_cv_rl_libdir,
+	  _rl_includedir -> ac_cv_rl_includedir
+
+configure.in
+	- change testing of whether to use the value of
+	  $opt_with_installed_readline to be != no, to allow the user to

+	- if --with-installed-readline=PREFIX is supplied, set ac_cv_rl_prefix
+	  to PREFIX before calling RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION
+	- if --with-installed-readline[=PREFIX] is supplied, don't set
+	  RL_LIBDIR and RL_INCLUDEDIR; let RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION take care
+	  of it, set RL_INCLUDE=-I${RL_INCLUDEDIR}
+	- if --with-installed-readline[=PREFIX] is supplied, and we're
+	  linking with the history library, assign $RL_LIBDIR to HIST_LIBDIR
+	  so we use the same version of the installed readline and history
+	  libraries
+
+Makefile.in, builtins/Makefile.in
+	- have configure substitute RL_INCLUDEDIR, set RL_INCLUDEDIR variable
+
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- updated description of --with-installed-readline configure option 
+
+general.c
+	- moved QSFUNC typedef here from builtins/common.c
+

+
+bracecomp.c
+	- remove extern declaration for sh_backslash_quote; it's in externs.h

+shell}.c
+	- prototype all static forward function declarations
+
+pcomplete.c
+	- changed some function parameters to `const char *' to avoid discarding

+
+make_cmd.h
+	- changed extern declarations for make_bare_word and make_word
+
+print_cmd.c
+	- cprintf now takes a `const char *' as its first argument, like
+	  xprintf and printf
+	- the conditional define for xprintf should have been HAVE_VPRINTF,
+	  not HAVE_VFPRINTF
+
+shell.c
+	- in isnetconn(), the return value of sizeof() is size_t
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- add inclusion of stddef.h if STDC_HEADERS is defined to 1 in
+	  BASH_CHECK_TYPE
+
+configure.in
+	- add a call to BASH_CHECK_TYPE for socklen_t (type of third argument
+	  to getpeername(2))
+

+lib/readline/bind.c
+	- make `useq' a char array to pass to rl_macro_bind in
+	  rl_parse_and_bind
+
+lib/readline/{{bind,isearch}.c,rlprivate.h}
+	- _rl_isearch_terminators is now a char *, not unsigned char *
+
+{subst,variables,lib/sh/tmpfile}.c
+	- dollar_dollar_pid is now a `pid_t' instead of `int'
+
+variables.c
+	- sbrand() now takes an `unsigned long' to set the seed value
+	- changed last_random_value to type int, since it's always between
+	  0 and 32767
+	- use strtoul to convert the value in assign_random instead of atoi
+	- take out casts in any arguments to sbrand()
+	- take out cast to int in call to inttostr in set_ppid()
+
+subst.c
+	- don't cast last_asynchronous_pid when passing to itos()

+history,jobs,pushd,read,set,trap,umask,
+	- prototype all static forward function declarations
+
+builtins/read.def
+	- reset_eol_delim now takes a `char *' arg, since that's what the
+	  unwind_protect functions pass it, and it ignores its arguments
+	  anyway
+
+lib/readline/{histsearch,input,kill,rltty,search,vi_mode}.c
+	- prototype all static forward function declarations

+	  appropriate
+
+configure.in,config.h.in
+	- check for vsnprintf, define HAVE_VSNPRINTF if found
+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- use vsnprintf() in rl_message if it's available; if we don't, at
+	  least set the last character in msg_buf to 0 to avoid overrun --
+	  we really can't do anything about overflow at this point.  if it's
+	  available, this fixes buffer overflow problems in rl_message
+
+				   5/15
+				   ----
+lib/readline/histexpand.c
+	- in get_history_word_specifier, allow any character to terminate
+	  a `:first-' modifier, not just `:' and null.  This is what csh
+	  appears to do.  This allows things like `!:0- xyzzy' to replace the
+	  last argument with xyzzy
+
+				   5/18
+				   ----
+configure.in, config.h.in
+	- check for <stdint.h>, define HAVE_STDINT_H if found

+	  and vasprintf, derived from inetutils version
+
+Makefile.in, lib/sh/Makefile.in
+	- add snprintf.c/snprintf.o
+
+configure.in, config.h.in
+	- add checks for snprintf, asprintf, vasprintf, with appropriate
+	  cpp defines
+
+lib/readline/{rldefs,xmalloc}.h, lib/readline/xmalloc.c
+	- xmalloc and xrealloc now take `size_t' arguments, like their bash
+	  counterparts
+
+externs.h,lib/sh/itos.c
+	- inttostr and itos now take `long' arguments
+	- inttostr takes a `size_t' argument for the buffer size
+
+{expr,lib/malloc/malloc,variables,general}.c
+	- fixed calls to itos() by removing casts, etc.
+
+subst.[ch]
+	- get_dollar_var_value now takes a long, not an int

+
+subst.c
+	- in parameter_brace_expand_word, use a long and legal_number to

+	- in parameter_brace_expand_length, use a long and legal_number to
+	  translate ${#N}, to avoid overflow
+	- in do_array_element_assignment, array_expand_index,
+	  array_value_internal, use arrayind_t instead of int
+	- let verify_substring_values take long * arguments for the return
+	  value of evalexp()
+	- pass long * arguments to verify_substring_values in
+	  parameter_brace_substring
+	- parameter_brace_expand_length now returns `long'
+	- parameter_brace_expand now uses a long variable for the return
+	  value of parameter_brace_expand_length
+	- param_expand now uses a long variable for the return value from
+	  evalexp
+	- array_length reference now returns an `arrayind_t', since it can
+	  return the num_elements member of an array, which is of type
+	  arrayind_t
+
+subst.h
+	- array_expand_index now returns an `arrayind_t'
+
+array.[ch]
+	- array_subrange now takes arrayind_t arguments, not `int'
+	- dup_array_subrange now uses arrayind_t local variable to do
+	  array indexing
+	- use long to print array indices in print_element
+
+variables.c
+	- null_array_assign, assign_dirstack, bind_array_variable
+	  now take arrayind_t arguments as array indices
+	- assign_array_var_from_word_list, assign_array_var_from_string,

+
+builtins/{shift,break}.def
+	- use long variables for the return value of get_numeric_arg
+
+builtins/history.def
+	- convert string argument to int only if it's in range
+
+builtins/pushd.def
+	- set_dirstack_element and get_dirstack_element now take `long'
+	  index arguments
+	- get_dirstack_index now takes a `long' index argument, since it's
+	  passed the converted value from legal_number
+
+lib/sh/timeval.c
+	- in print_timeval, don't assume that the number of minutes fits into
+	  an int, since it's just seconds/60.
+
+lib/sh/clock.c
+	- ditto for print_clock_t
+
+				   5/22
+				   ----
+shell.c
+	- since the -O option settings may possibly be overridden by the
+	  normal shell initialization or posix initialization, save the
+	  invocation options on an alist (with add_shopt_to_alist) and
+	  process them after basic initialization (with run_shopt_alist)
+
+				   5/23
+				   ----
+trap.h
+	- new define, BASH_NSIG, all system signals plus special bash traps
+
+trap.c, builtins/trap.def
+	- use BASH_NSIG for array bounds and loops where appropriate
+
+trap.c
+	- change decode_signal to disallow numeric signal numbers above
+	  NSIG -- this means you can only reference special traps like
+	  DEBUG by name
+	- new SPECIAL_TRAP(s) macro to test whether s is one of the special
+	  bash traps (currently DEBUG and EXIT)
+	- change reset_or_restore_signal_handlers so command substitution
+	  doesn't inherit the debug trap (like ksh93), and child processes
+	  don't have to rely on initialize_traps being run to get rid of
+	  any debug trap
+
+support/mksignames.c
+	- add extra "ERR" signal name, value NSIG+1, allocate space for it
+	  and write it out in signal_names[]
+
+trap.h
+	- new define: ERROR_TRAP == NSIG+1, change BASH_NSIG to NSIG+2
+	- extern declarations for set_error_trap, run_error_trap
+	- new define: TRAP_STRING(s), expands to trap_list[s] if signal S
+	  is trapped and not ignored, NULL otherwise
+
+trap.c
+	- add ERROR_TRAP to SPECIAL_TRAPS define
+	- initialize ERROR_TRAP stuff in initialize_traps
+	- new function: set_error_trap(command), sets the ERR trap string
+	- new function: run_error_trap(command), runs the ERR trap string
+	- set trap string for ERROR_TRAP to NULL in free_trap_strings
+	- change reset_or_restore_signal_handlers so child processes don't
+	  inherit the ERR trap
+	- add case to call run_error_trap in maybe_call_trap_handler
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- in execute_command_internal, keep track of ERR trap and call it if
+	  necessary
+	- use TRAP_STRING to get the value of debug and error traps
+	- in execute_function, arrange things so the ERR trap is not inherited
+	  by shell functions, and is saved and restored like the DEBUG trap
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- documented new ERR trap
+
+tests/{trap.{tests,right},trap2.sub,trap2a.sub}
+	- added ERR trap tests
+
+subst.c
+	- on machines without /dev/fd, change the named pipe fifo list to a
+	  list of structs containing pathname and proc information
+	- change unlink_fifo_list to kill the proc in the fifo list with
+	  signal 0 and not remove the fifo if the proc is still alive.  This
+	  should fix the problem on those backward systems without /dev/fd
+	  where fifos were removed when a job using process substitution was
+	  suspended
+
+				   5/24
+				   ----
+examples/loadables/getconf.h
+	- new file, with basic defines needed to make getconf work minimally
+	  on POSIX systems without the necessary definitions
+
+examples/loadables/getconf.c
+	- replacement functions for confstr, sysconf, pathconf for systems
+	  that lack them, providing a minimal posix interface
+	- heavily augmented getconf, now supports all POSIX.1-200x,
+	  POSIX.2-200x, Solaris 7, AIX 4.2 getconf variables
+
+				   5/29
+				   ----
+builtins/setattr.def
+	- make `readonly', `export', and `declare' print `invisible' variables
+	  as just a command and variable name, without a value, when listing
+	  all variables (as POSIX.2-200x d6 requires)
+
+				   5/30
+				   ----
+
+configure.in
+	- upgraded to autoconf-2.50 on main development machine, so require
+	  autoconf-2.50 in preparation for using some if its new features
+	- call AC_C_PROTOTYPES
+	- remove call to AC_EXEEXT, which now does the wrong thing
+	- changed AC_INIT to new flavor
+	- added call to AC_CONFIG_SRCDIR
+	- AC_CONFIG_HEADER -> AC_CONFIG_HEADERS
+	- AC_RETSIGTYPE -> AC_TYPE_SIGNAL
+
+configure.in, aclocal.m4, config.h.in
+	- removed call to BASH_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT, use AC_SYS_LARGEFILE
+	  standard support, with new macros _FILE_OFFSET_BITS and
+	  _LARGE_FILES
+	- removed definition of BASH_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT
+
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- document new `--enable-largefile' configure option
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- change rl_set_prompt to call rl_expand_prompt unconditionally, so
+	  local_prompt and local_prompt_prefix get set correctly
+
+				    6/6
+				    ---
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- don't append `/' or ` ' to a match when completing a symlink that
+	  resolves to a directory, unless the match doesn't add anything
+	  to the word.  This means that a tab will complete the word up to
+	  the full name, but not add anything, and a subsequent tab will add
+	  a slash.  Change to append_to_match; callers changed
+
+hashlib.c
+	- new function, hash_table_nentries (table), returns the number of
+	  items in TABLE
+
+hashlib.h
+	- extern declaration for hash_table_nentries
+
+configure.in
+	- configure without bash malloc on openbsd; they claim it needs
+	  eight-bit alignment (which the bash malloc provides, but...)
+
+				    7/2
+				    ---
+stringlib.c
+	- only call RESIZE_MALLOCED_BUFFER from strsub() if the replacement
+	  string length is > 0, avoid possible hangs if replacement is null

+	- don't include input.h; no longer needed
+

+
+aclocal.m4
+	- removed definition of BASH_SYS_RESTARTABLE_SYSCALLS; no longer used
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- changed select command so `return' no longer terminates the select
+	  command, so it can be used to return from an enclosing function.
+	  This is as ksh (88 and 93) does it
+
+lib/readline/vi_mode.c
+	- fix trivial typo in declaration of vi_motion; `t' appears twice;
+	  the second instance should be `T'
+
+				    7/3
+				    ---
+configure.in
+	- don't add -static to LDFLAGS on Solaris 2.x.  This means that the
+	  auxiliary programs will be built as dynamic executables, but that
+	  should do no harm
+
+				    7/5
+				    ---
+lib/glob/fnmatch.c
+	- fix the code that processes **(pattern) to short-circuit if the
+	  pattern is ill-formed or lacks a trailing `)'  -- this fixes the
+	  segfault on **(/*)
+
+Makefile.in, builtins/Makefile.in
+	- split CCFLAGS into CCFLAGS_FOR_BUILD and CFLAGS, to aid in
+	  cross-compilation
+	- build programs that use $(CC_FOR_BUILD) using $(CCFLAGS_FOR_BUILD)
+
+configure.in, config.h.in
+	- check for getaddrinfo(3), define HAVE_GETADDRINFO if found
+
+lib/sh/netopen.c
+	- implemented a version of _netopen (_netopen6) that uses
+	  getaddrinfo(3) if available, use if HAVE_GETADDRINFO is defined.
+	  old _netopen is _netopen4; _netopen now calls either _netopen6
+	  or _netopen4 as appropriate
+
+				    7/9
+				    ---
+builtins/exit.def
+	- don't source ~/.bash_logout if subshell_environment is non-zero
+
+execute_command.c
+	- in execute_until_or_while, handle the case where `breaking' is
+	  set in the loop test (e.g., by the job control code when a job
+	  is stopped with SIGTSTP), but the return value from the test is
+	  something that would cause the loop to break.  Need to decrement
+	  `breaking' in this case
+
+				   7/10
+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- in execute_in_subshell, make sure a command of type cm_subshell
+	  inherits its `enclosing' command's CMD_IGNORE_RETURN flag
+
+variables.c
+	- in maybe_make_export_env, don't allow restricted shells to put
+	  exported functions in the export environment

+
+lib/glob/glob.c
+	- include "strmatch.h"
+	- fnmatch -> strmatch
+
+Makefile.in, lib/glob/Makefile.in
+	- fnmatch -> strmatch
+
+{bashhist,execute_cmd,pathexp,pcomplete,shell,stringlib,subst,test}.c,
+pathexp.h,builtins/help.def
+	- include <glob/strmatch.h>
+	- fnmatch -> strmatch
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- broke the code that parses the interpreter name from a #! line
+	  out from execute_shell_script to a new function, getinterp()
+	- call getinterp from execute_shell_script
+	- use return value from getinterp in error message about bad
+	  #! interpreter in shell_execve
+
+				   7/12
+				   ----
+lib/readline/isearch.c
+	- the last isearch string is now remembered in a new static variable,

+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- in execute_connection, force stdin to /dev/null for asynchronous

+	  running a shell script (since you can run `set -m' in a script)
+
+lib/readline/rltty.c
+	- make sure _rl_tty_restore_signals resets `tty_sigs_disabled' on
+	  successful restoration of the terminal modes
+	- make sure _rl_tty_disable_signals turns off IXON so that ^S and

+	  include nonprinting characters without quoting, unless they
+	  contain shell metacharacters
+
+builtins/printf.def, lib/sh/snprintf.c
+	- handle `F' conversion specifier as equivalent to 'f'
+
+parse.y, {nojobs,variables}.c
+	- a couple of cleanups for when building a minimal configuration
+
+nojobs.c
+	- new function: stop_making_children(), just sets
+	  already_making_children to 0 (like stop_pipeline)
+
+subst.c
+	- call stop_making_children from subst.c:command_substitute if
+	  JOB_CONTROL is not defined.  This fixes the bug where the wrong
+	  process is waited for (and its status returned) when using
+	  command substitution in a null command in a shell function
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- new variable `tw' used to keep track of the total number of
+	  characters written by a single call to `printf' -- to be
+	  used for the `%n' conversion, which will be added later.  It
+	  gets reset each time we reuse the format string, which is what
+	  ksh93 seems to do
+
+				   10/23
+				   -----
+variables.c
+	- new function, bind_var_to_int (char *var, long val)
+
+variables.h
+	- extern declaration for bind_var_to_int
+
+lib/sh/netopen.c
+	- use gai_strerror() for error messages when getaddrinfo() fails
+	- use PF_INET if DEBUG is defined, since IPv6 doesn't work for me
+
+Makefile.in
+	- pass DEBUG=${DEBUG} down to makes in some subdirectories
+
+{builtins,lib/{glob,sh}}/Makefile.in
+	- append ${DEBUG} to LOCAL_CFLAGS value, passed by top-level Makefile
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- added support for %n format conversion char (number of chars printed
+	  so far from current format string)
+
+				   10/24
+				   -----
+variables.c
+	- if posixly_correct is set, the default value of $MAILCHECK is 600
+	- use legal_number instead of atoi in adjust_shell_level
+	- treat non-numeric assignments to SECONDS as 0 in assign_seconds
+	- new function, init_funcname_var; sets FUNCNAME as a dynamic variable
+	  if it's not set in the initial environment
+	- new function, init_groups_var; sets GROUPS as a dynamic array
+	  variable if it's not set in the initial environment
+	- new function, init_dirstack_var; sets DIRSTACK as a dynamic array
+	  variable if it's not set in the initial environment
+	- new function, init_seconds_var; sets SECONDS as a dynamic
+	  variable using any valid integer value in the initial environment
+	  as the initial value, as if an assignment had been performed
+	- call init_funcname_var, init_groups_var, init_dirstack_var,
+	  init_seconds_var from initialize_dynamic_variables
+	- non-numeric values assigned to LINENO are treated as 0
+	- change initialize_shell_variables to not auto-export PATH or TERM
+	- change set_home_var to not auto-export HOME
+	- change set_shell_var to not auto-export SHELL
+	- broke the code that sets HOSTNAME, HOSTTYPE, MACHTYPE, OSTYPE
+	  out into a separate function, set_machine_vars; none of those
+	  variables are auto-exported
+	- bash no longer un-exports SSH_CLIENT or SSH2_CLIENT
+
+shell.c
+	- changed isnetconn() to check SSH_CLIENT and SSH2_CLIENT only if
+	  SSH_SOURCE_BASHRC is defined in config-top.h
+
+config-top.h
+	- added a commented-out definition for SSH_SOURCE_BASHRC
+
+				   10/25

+				   -----
+locale.c
+	- fixed an `=' vs. `==' typo in set_locale_var when parsing
+	  LC_NUMERIC
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- document what bash does with $POSIXLY_CORRECT
+
+doc/builtins.1
+	- some updates
+
+builtins/psize.sh
+	- some mktemp(1) changes
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- change rl_backward to check for rl_point < 0 and reset to 0 if so
+
+lib/readline/util.c
+	- don't compile in _rl_strpbrk if HAVE_STRPBRK is defined
+
+lib/readline/rlprivate.h
+	- remove extern declaration of _rl_strpbrk
+
+lib/readline/rldefs.h
+	- #define _rl_strpbrk as strpbrk if HAVE_STRPBRK is define, otherwise
+	  add extern declaration of _rl_strpbrk from rlprivate.h
+
+{mailcheck,shell,variables}.c
+	- make sure to include posixtime.h to get any prototype for time(3)
+	  in scope
+
+{array,eval,execute_cmd,mksyntax,subst}.c, parse.y
+builtins/common.c
+lib/sh/pathcanon.c
+	- a few changes as the result of `gcc -Wall' patches from solar
+	  designer
+
+builtins/read.def, parse.y
+	- change some calls to free() to xfree()
+
+builtins/set.def
+	- make sure unset_builtin() resets unset_array to 0 each time through
+	  the loop, because it's set (and used) depending on the current
+	  argument
+
+shell.h
+	- new define, USE_VAR, to force the compiler to not put a particular
+	  variable in a register -- helpful if registers are not restored
+	  by setjmp/longjmp
+
+builtins/{evalfile.c,{read,wait}.def}, {eval,execute_cmd,shell,test}.c
+	- use USE_VAR for some variables
+
+subst.c
+	- fixed a case in expand_word_internal where a NULL pointer could
+	  have been passed to free() (though free() should ignore it)
+	- fixed a case at the end of expand_word_internal where LIST could
+	  have been used uninitialized (it makes gcc happy, though it
+	  doesn't happen in practice)
+
+test.c
+	- give test_syntax_error(), beyond(), and integer_expected_error()
+	  the `__noreturn__' attribute for gcc
+
+unwind_prot.c
+	- in clear_unwind_protect_list(), convert `flags' to `long' (via
+	  assignment to a `long' variable) before casting to `char *', in
+	  case pointers and longs are 64 bits and ints are 32 (makes no
+	  difference on 32-bit machines)
+
+				   10/30
+				   -----
+print_cmd.c
+	- fixed cprintf to avoid gcc warning about assigning const pointer
+	  to non-const (discarding type qualifier)
+
+{make_cmd,pcomplete,test}.c,parse.y
+	- some minor changes to shut up gcc warnings
+
+lib/sh/tmpfile.c
+	- fixed sh_mktmpfp to avoid file descriptor leaks in the case that
+	  sh_mktmpfd succeeds but fdopen fails for some reason
+	- change sh_mktmpfd to use the same scheme for computing `filenum'
+	  as sh_mktmpname
+	- change get_sys_tmpdir to prefer P_tmpdir if P_tmpdir is defined
+	- changed sh_mktmpname and sh_mktmpfd to avoid trying to assign to
+	  `nameroot' if `nameroot == 0' (duh)
+	- add code to sh_mktmpfd to use mkstemp(3) if USE_MKSTEMP is defined
+	- add code to sh_mktmpname to use mktemp(3) if USE_MKTEMP is defined
+
+support/{fixlinks,mkclone}
+	- use mktemp if it's available for the symlink test
+	- use $TMPDIR instead of hardcoding /tmp; default to /tmp
+	- use a better filename for the symlink test instead of `z'
+
+support/bashbug.sh
+	- more changes inspired by a patch from solar designer
+
+lib/malloc/Makefile.in
+	- new target `alloca', which builds libmalloc.a with alloca.o only
+	  (for systems without alloca that are configured --without-bash-malloc)
+
+configure.in
+	- if we don't have a working alloca and are not configured to build
+	  the bash malloc library, make a malloc library containing only
+	  alloca.o
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- slight change to RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION to deal with minor version
+	  numbers with a letter appended (like 4.2a)
+
+				   10/31
+				   -----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- slight change to note that only interactive shells resend a SIGHUP
+	  to all jobs before exiting
+
+externs.h
+	- declare strto[ui]max only if NEED_STRTOIMAX_DECL is defined.  This
+	  keeps picky compilers from choking because intmax_t is not defined
+	  (MacOS X 10.1)
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- #define NEED_STRTOIMAX_DECL before including shell.h
+
+				   11/1
+				   ----
+general.c
+	- check in bash_tilde_expand() for an unquoted tilde-prefix; don't
+	  bother passing the string to tilde_expand unless the prefix is
+	  unquoted
+
+shell.c
+	- fix a problem with $LINENO when executing commands supplied with
+	  the -c invocation option when ONESHOT is defined
+
+[bash-2.05a-rc1 frozen]
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- fix the %n conversion to require that the variable name supplied
+	  be a valid shell identifier
+
+variables.c
+	- improve random number generator slightly by using the upper 16
+	  bits of the running random number instead of the lower 16, which
+	  are incrementally more random
+
+				   11/2
+				   ----
+configure.in
+	- if RL_INCLUDEDIR ends up being /usr/include, don't put
+	  -I$(RL_INCLUDEDIR) into CFLAGS
+
+				   11/5
+				   ----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- correct description of POSIXLY_CORRECT to note that the shell enters
+	  posix mode *before* the startup files are read if POSIXLY_CORRECT
+	  is in the initial environment
+
+variables.c
+	- fix function prologues for init_dirstack_var and init_groups_var
+	  to agree with caller (no arguments)
+
+jobs.c
+	- fix forward function declarations for pipe_read and pipe_close
+
+subst.c
+	- removed `inline' attribute from skip_double_quoted because it can
+	  potentially be called recursively
+
+bashline.c
+	- quick fix to bashline.c:attempt_shell_completion programmable
+	  completion code to just punt if the end of the command word found
+	  by find_cmd_end is <= the start found by find_cmd_start (the bug
+	  is probably in find_cmd_start -- fix later)
+
+pcomplete.c
+	- fix gen_matches_from_itemlist to return if the stringlist is null
+	  after any cleaning or initialization, before trying to use it
+	- fix GEN_COMPS to only bother to try to append the STRINGLIST
+	  returned by gen_matches_from_itemlist to `glist' if it's non-NULL
+
+lib/sh/stringlist.c
+	- make copy_stringlist return NULL if the STRINGLIST * passed as an
+	  argument is NULL
+	- make append_stringlist call copy_stringlist only if M2 is non-NULL;
+	  otherwise just return NULL if m1 is NULL
+	- make word_list_to_stringlist return 0 immediately if the passed
+	  LIST argument is NULL
+	- make realloc_stringlist call alloc_stringlist if the passed
+	  STRINGLIST argument (`sl') is 0, just like realloc calls malloc
+
+subst.c
+	- in skip_to_delim(), if we have an unclosed ${, and it's at the end
+	  of the string (string[i] == '{', string[i+1] == '{' and
+	  string[i+2] == 0, return si (i + 2) immediately without bothering
+	  to call extract_dollar_brace_string or extract_delimited_string
+	- in skip_to_delim(), if string[i] is 0 after a call to
+	  extract_dollar_brace_string or extract_delimited_string (meaning we
+	  have an unclosed ${ or other expansion, return i immediately without
+	  doing a `continue' (which will increment i past the end of string)
+	- in split_at_delims, don't increment te by 1 if it's pointing to a
+	  delimiter.  this has the effect of skipping the first delimiter
+	  char in a possibly multi-character delimiter, and ignoring
+	  single-char delimiters like `>'
+
+configure.in
+	- use AC_CHECK_MEMBERS([struct stat.st_blocks]) instead of a call to
+	  AC_STRUCT_ST_BLOCKS to avoid configure changing LIBOBJS if the test
+	  fails
+
+general.c
+	- introduce two new variables: bash_tilde_{prefixes,suffixes}, set
+	  to the additional prefixes and suffixes bash wants to pass to the
+	  tilde expansion code (reserved for post-bash-2.05a fix)
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- add missing `test' in BASH_CHECK_SYS_SIGLIST
+
+				   11/7
+				   ----
+lib/readline/vi_mode.c
+	- fix rl_vi_goto_mark to explicitly check that the desired mark is
+	  between 'a' and 'z', since some locales have lowercase letters
+	  outside that range, which could cause a negative subscript
+
+include/chartypes.h
+	- remove superfluous `#undef ISASCII'
+
+lib/sh/strto[iu]max.c
+	- changes from Paul Eggert to work around buggy compilers and catch
+	  configuration errors at compile time
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- new macro, BASH_C_LONG_DOUBLE, identical to AC_C_LONG_DOUBLE but
+	  with a fix for Irix 5.3 (not called, since I'm not sure it's the
+	  right thing to do -- the C standard allows double and long double
+	  to be the same size)
+
+lib/sh/snprintf.c
+	- only try to write the trailing NUL in vsnprintf_internal if
+	  data->length is >= 0, since if it's not, we probably don't have
+	  a buffer
+
+Makefile.in
+	- changed RELSTATUS to `release'
+
+				   11/8
+				   ----
+lib/sh/strtol.c
+	- make sure chars passed to toupper are cast to unsigned
+
+unwind_prot.c
+	- change clear_unwind_protect_list to not require a cast from `int'
+	  to `char *'
+
+lib/readline/chardefs.h
+	- make _rl_digit_p succeed only for ascii digits, since that's what
+	  most callers assume
+
+				   11/13
+				   -----
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- added `ERR' trap and [-+]O invocation option to section listing

+				   -----
+[bash-2.05a released]
+
+				   11/19

+
+trap.c
+	- use BASH_NSIG as upper limit for signal names in signal_name()
+
+lib/readline/bind.c
+	- use RL_COMMENT_BEGIN_DEFAULT in output for rl-comment-begin value
+
+error.c
+	- fix sys_error to save value of errno around calls to fprintf
+
+doc/Makefile.in
+	- added rules to create PDF files from postscript and dvi input
+
+MANIFEST.doc
+	- added {article,bash,bashref,rose94}.pdf
+
+doc/bash.1
+	- rearranged some `.PD 0' and `.TP' directives so man2html will
+	  handle them better (shouldn't affect groff output)
+
+support/man2html.c
+	- small fix to handle quoted string arguments to directives like
+	  `.BR' without mangling the output
+
+				   11/20
+				   -----
+{arrayfunc,variables}.c
+	- changed calling sequence for dynamic array variable `assign'
+	  functions to (SHELL_VAR *self, char *value, arrayind_t ind)
+	- changed calling sequence for dynamic variable assign functions
+	  to the same as array variable assign_func.  Now this can be
+	  prototyped
+
+variables.h
+	- the assign_func member of a `struct variable' is now of type
+	  `sh_var_assign_func_t', which is prototyped
+	- the dynamic_value member of a `struct variable' is now of type
+	  `sh_var_value_func_t', which is prototyped
+
+variables.c
+	- changed to use `sh_var_assign_func_t' and `sh_var_value_func_t'
+
+builtins/cd.def
+	- when in posix mode, if the new directory name formed by PWD and
+	  the argument passed by the user cannot be canonicalized, and the
+	  -P option has not been supplied, return failure immediately
+	- if canonicalization failed, but the fallback to the directory
+	  name specified by the user succeeds, reset the current working
+	  directory
+
+lib/readline/{input.c,rlprivate.h}
+	- renamed rl_unget_char to _rl_unget_char; made library global
+
+lib/readline/{{bind,readline}.c,{keymaps,rlprivate}.h}
+	- support for `key subsequences'; allows a key sequence and a function
+	  mapped to a subsequence of that key sequence.  Primarily to allow
+	  arrow keys to be bound in readline vi insert mode, while preserving
+	  the ESC function to switch to command mode.
+
+lib/readline/{input.c,rlprivate.h}
+	- new function, _rl_input_queued(T), does a check with select or
+	  FIONREAD with a timeout of `T' (which is generally 0)
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- change _rl_dispatch_subseq to test for input in the queue if we
+	  get ESC while in vi insertion mode if the keymap entry type for
+	  ESC is ISKMAP.  If _rl_input_queued returns non-zero, we assume
+	  that an arrow key sequence has been pressed and go ahead with the
+	  subsequence.  If it returns zero, we assume that the user pressed
+	  ESC to switch into command mode, and dispatch to that right away.
+	  This avoids forcing the user to press another key before switching
+	  into command mode
+
+				   11/21
+				   -----
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- bind common arrow key sequences in vi insertion keymap
+
+lib/readline/terminal.c
+	- bind termcap definition's arrow keys in vi insertion keymap
+
+lib/readline/bind.c
+	- check for rl_vi_movement_mode in _rl_bind_if_unbound, so
+	  binding the arrow keys can work
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- since _rl_bind_if_unbound does the check of what's currently
+	  bound to the key sequence, the check in bind_arrow_keys_internal
+	  was redundant
+	- bind_arrow_keys_internal now takes a Keymap argument and handles
+	  saving and restoring _rl_keymap; changed bind_arrow_keys
+	  accordingly
+
+builtins/fc.def
+	- fix from Paul Eggert to substitute the nearest history number in
+	  range if an out-of-range value is supplied.  POSIX requires this
+
+lib/sh/pathcanon.c
+	- fix from Corrina Vinschen for the special `cygdrive' prefix on
+	  Cygwin
+
+bashhist.c
+	- split the history adding code into more pieces:
+	    check_history_control (char *line) checks LINE against the value
+	    of HISTCONTROL, returning 1 if LINE should be saved and 0 if not
+
+	    check_add_history (char *line) calls check_history_control and
+	    history_should_ignore (line) and saves the line with
+	    bash_add_history if the checks indicate that it should be saved
+
+	    maybe_add_history just calls check_add_history to set the value
+	    of first_line_saved
+
+bashhist.h
+	- extern declaration for check_add_history()
+
+shell.c
+	- don't call load_history() from the interactive shell startup
+	  code if history_lines_this_session is > 0, indicating that we've
+	  already saved some lines in the history and that we probably
+	  don't want to overwrite them
+
+builtins/history.def
+	- call check_add_history from push_history, so `history -s xx'
+	  works even when in a compound command whose first line has not
+	  been saved.  (Caveat:  in a compound command when the first
+	  line has been saved, the line supplied to history -s will become
+	  part of the compound command's history entry.  Of course, the
+	  delete_history call could remove the compound command from the
+	  history entirely)
+
+bashline.c
+	- use sh_makepath instead of xmalloc/sprintf in
+	  command_word_completion_function
+
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- get_y_or_n now takes an int FOR_PAGER argument; caller changed
+	  If FOR_PAGER is non-zero, get_y_or_n returns appropriate values
+	  for a more-like pager:  `newline' or `return' return 2; `q' or
+	  `Q' return 0
+	- there is now a mini internal more-like pager for displaying a
+	  list of completions that exceeds the screen height (new function
+	  _rl_internal_pager, called from rl_display_match_list)
+
+				   11/24
+				   -----
+command.h
+	- new flag, W_TILDEEXP, says to do tilde expansion on an

+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- fix_assignment_words now sets W_TILDEEXP for assignment word
+	  arguments to `assignment builtins'
+
+general.c
+	- bash_tilde_expand now takes a second argument indicating whether
+	  or not it's being invoked in an `assignment context'
+
+general.h
+	- change extern declaration for bash_tilde_expand
+
+{bashline,execute_cmd,findcmd,general,variables}.c
+builtins/evalfile.c
+lib/sh/makepath.c
+	- fix callers of bash_tilde_expand appropriately
+
+subst.c
+	- fix callers of bash_tilde_expansion appropriately
+	- add (currently commented-out) code that would tilde expand assignment
+	  statement arguments to assignment builtins (W_TILDEEXP flag set)
+	  even when the shell is in posix mode
+
+bashline.c
+	- fix attempt_shell_completion to turn off
+	  rl_filename_completion_desired when doing command name completion,
+	  so no slash gets appended to the name if there happens to be a
+	  directory with the same name in the current directory
+
+				   11/26
+				   -----
+lib/readline/rltech.texinfo
+	- a couple of additions to the rl_stuff_char description
+
+parse.y
+	- turn off echo_input_at_read in parse_string_to_word_list, so `set -v'
+	  doesn't give extra lines of output when doing compound array
+	  assignment
+
+subst.c
+	- fix split_at_delims to handle skipping over a `\n' if it's a

+
+				   11/27
+				   -----
+support/config.{guess,sub}

+
+lib/readline/signals.c

+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- add some common key bindings for the HOME and END keys in

+
+lib/readline/terminal.c
+	- fetch the `@7' termcap string; it's sent by the END key
+	- attempt to bind the terminal's END key to rl_end_of_line in

+	  instead of `@7'
+
+doc/builtins.1

+
+				   11/28
+				   -----
+stringlib.c
+	- new function, find_token_in_alist, takes a token value and an

+
+externs.h
+	- new extern declaration for find_token_in_alist()
+
+subst.c
+	- string_list_internal is no longer static
+
+subst.h
+	- new extern declaration for string_list_internal()
+
+parse.y
+	- new alist array of other tokens returned by read_token which are
+	  not reserved words in word_token_alist[]
+	- reworked error reporting:  new functions print_offending_line,
+	  which prints the line containing the syntax error,
+	  error_token_from_token, which takes the current token and tries to
+	  figure out its textual representation, and error_token_from_text,
+	  which does the old job of finding the bad token by analyzing the
+	  text of shell_input_line at the current index
+	- report_syntax_error now tries to figure out the token that caused
+	  the syntax error by first looking at current_token and falling
+	  back to the old method of textual analysis if that fails
+	- report_syntax_error doesn't say the token resulting from the textual
+	  analysis of the input line is an `unexpected token'; it just
+	  says there is a `syntax error near xxx'
+	- changed conditional command error reporting to use the value
+	  returned by error_token_from_token if it's not null instead of
+	  just using the token value in the message, since current_token
+	  ends up being set to -1, and the text of the message from
+	  report_syntax_error might not be exactly right
+	- change parse_string_to_word_list to set current_token to the
+	  offending token returned by read_token before calling yyerror()
+	  to make the error reporting do the right thing

+
+config.h.in
+	- add define for HAVE_ISINF_IN_LIBC
+
+lib/sh/snprintf.c
+	- check for Inf and NaN, using isinf and isnan if they're found in
+	  libc
+	- use the current locale for thousands separator and decimal point
+	- recognize "'" flag; not implemented yet
+	- fix for snprintf/vsnprintf with length of 0 and string argument of
+	  0 with non-zero length
+
+builtins/read.def
+	- TMOUT is now the default timeout for `read' (and select) if set,
+	  like ksh93 when reading from the terminal
+	- edit_line (called by read -e) now just does readline's filename
+	  completion by setting rl_attempted_completion_function to NULL,
+	  since e.g., doing command completion for the first word on the
+	  line wasn't really useful
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- changed select_command to return failure status if select_query
+	  returns NULL, indicating that read_builtin returned
+	  EXECUTION_FAILURE
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- documented new TMOUT behavior 
+	- slight change to the description of the test `-ef' option
+
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- added item to posix mode section describing failure behavior of
+	  cd when invoked in logical mode and the pathname formed by
+	  combining $PWD and the directory argument does not refer to an
+	  existing directory
+
+				   11/29
+				   -----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- fix execute_function to call dispose_function_env after

+	  bash bug #117673)
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- rl_forward -> rl_forward_char; rl_forward function for compatibility
+	- rl_backward -> rl_backward_char; rl_forward function for
+	  compatibility
+	- new functions, rl_forward_byte, rl_backward_byte, for future use
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- extern declarations for rl_forward_char, rl_backward_char,

+
+lib/readline/{emacs_keymap,funmap,vi_keymap,vi_mode
+	- rl_forward -> rl_forward_char

+
+aclocal.m4
+	- new function, BASH_CHECK_MULTIBYTE, encapsulates checks for
+	  multibyte code
+
+config.h.in
+	- add necessary defines for multibyte include files and functions

+
+bashhist.c
+	- first_line_saved -> current_command_first_line_saved; variable is
+	  now global
+
+bashhist.h
+	- extern declaration for current_command_first_line_saved
+
+				   11/30
+				   -----
+bashhist.c
+	- break the code that actually calls add_history out of
+	  bash_add_history into a new function, really_add_history;
+	  bash_add_history now calls really_add_history
+	- check_add_history takes a second `force' argument telling it
+	  whether to call bash_add_history (force == 0) or really_add_history
+	  (force != 0)
+
+builtins/history.def
+	- in push_history, call delete_last_history if the current command
+	  has more than one line, the first line was saved, and
+	  command-oriented history is active.  This takes care of deleting
+	  the right history element if `history -s' is used within a
+	  compound or multiline command
+	- in push_history, call check_add_history with second argument of 1
+	  to skip check of current_command_line_count and add the arguments
+	  to history -s as a single separate history entry
+
+				   12/3

+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- append a slash to completed names which are symlinks to directories

+
+lib/readline/rlprivate.h
+	- extern declaration for _rl_complete_mark_symlink_dirs
+
+lib/readline/bind.c

+
+doc/bash.1, lib/readline/doc/{readline.3,rluser.texinfo}
+	- documented new `mark-symlinked-directories' variable
+
+				   12/4
+				   ----
+variables.[ch]
+	- set_pipestatus_array now takes a second argument with the number
+	  of processes in the array
+	- changed set_pipestatus_array to just modify the value in place if
+	  the existing array has one element and the new array has one
+	  element, and to modify existing values in place if new array has
+	  more elements than existing array
+
+variables.c, jobs.c
+	- changed set_pipestatus_array callers
+
+jobs.c
+	- moved call to setjstatus() from set_job_status_and_cleanup to
+	  wait_for, since set_job_status_and_cleanup is part of the SIGCHLD
+	  signal handler call path, and race conditions accessing the
+	  PIPESTATUS array will result for things like
+
+		while true; do date; done | cat > /dev/null
+
+				   12/5
+				   ----
+xmalloc.h
+	- don't redefine xmalloc, xrealloc, and xfree if DISABLE_MALLOC_WRAPPERS
+	  is #defined
+
+config.h.in
+	- #undef for DISABLE_MALLOC_WRAPPERS
+
+configure.in
+	- define DISABLE_MALLOC_WRAPPERS if the --with-purify option is
+	  supplied
+
+lib/malloc/trace.c
+	- new function, malloc_trace_bin(N), traces allocations and frees
+	  to bucket N (uses the same type of bitmap as `busy')
+
+lib/malloc/table.c
+	- fix wraparound search problem in find_entry when searching for a
+	  free entry when the table is full
+
+				   12/6
+				   ----
+lib/malloc/table.c
+	- keep an `overflow bucket' around to use when the table is full,
+	  so find_entry always returns a valid pointer when FIND_ALLOC
+	  is set
+	- new static variable to keep a count of the number of MT_ALLOC
+	  entries in the mem_table
+
+lib/sh/{oslib,clktck}.c
+	- if HAVE_LIMITS_H is defined, include <limits.h>

+	- necessary changes for netconn.c
+
+builtins/ulimit.def
+	- changed getmaxuprc() to just call getmaxchild() and massage the
+	  return value appropriately
+
+{jobs,nojobs}.c
+	- use the value returned by getmaxchild() in
+	  mark_dead_jobs_as_notified instead of static CHILD_MAX
+
+jobs.c
+	- new function, compact_jobs_list, removes some number of jobs from
+	  the jobs table and reallocates the table, copying the jobs that
+	  are left from the old table to the new.  Compaction happens from
+	  the beginning of the list and removes dead jobs, and we make sure
+	  to keep the last CHILD_MAX jobs as POSIX.2 requires
+	- call compact_jobs_list from stop_pipeline if we're in a subshell,
+	  there are no free jobs in the jobs table, and the jobs table is
+	  at or above some maximum limit
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- change eval_arith_for_expr to set this_command_name to `((' before
+	  calling evalexp, since it might be changed by evaluating the
+	  loop body between evalexp calls
+
+trap.c
+	- change reset_signal to turn off the SIG_TRAPPED flag for the
+	  given signal, so shell builtins and functions running in command
+	  substitutions don't run the signal handlers (traps are not supposed
+	  to be inherited by command substitutions)
+
+parse.y
+	- changed parse_string_to_word_list to turn off alias expansion
+	  while parsing the array assignment
+
+				   12/9
+				   ----
+alias.c
+	- fix add_alias so that redefining an alias's value also resets the
+	  EXPANDNEXT flag
+
+				   12/10
+				   -----
+parse.y
+	- new function, token_is_assignment, called to check whether the text
+	  before `=' makes up a valid assignment token before trying to parse
+	  a compound assignment statement
+	- new function, parse_compound_assignment, to parse a compound
+	  assignment statement instead of using parse_matched_pair; handles
+	  comments and error reporting in the parser instead of waiting until
+	  expansion time
+	- changed parse_compound_assignment and parse_string_to_word_list to
+	  allow reserved words in compound array assignments
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo
+	- changed the documentation for rl_callback_read_char and
+	  rl_callback_handler_remove to say what happens to the terminal
+	  settings and what needs to be done to reset them
+
+				   12/11
+				   -----
+bashline.c
+	- add emacs_edit_and_execute_command, bound to C-xC-e, like vi-mode

+
+doc/bash.1, lib/readline/doc/rluser.texinfo
+	- document `edit-and-execute-command' and its default emacs-mode

+
+include/chartypes.h

+
+lib/readline/chardefs.h
+	- #undef UNCTRL if it's defined to avoid cpp redefinition warnings
+
+lib/sh/strtrans.c
+	- add \cX (Control-X) escape for $'...' to ansicstr()
+	- change ansic_quote() to allocate at least four chars for each char
+	  in the string argument, to account for \0xx octal values
+	- change ansic_quote() to no longer call sprintf for non-printable
+	  characters; just translate the string to octal directly
+
+print_cmd.c
+	- change xtrace_print_word_list to call ansic_quote() if
+	  ansic_shouldquote() indicates that there are nonprinting characters
+	  in a word
+
+builtins/type.def
+	- changed deprecated long option parsing to just replace the word
+	  in the list with the equivalent short option (-type -> -t) instead
+	  of removing words from the list
+	- changed describe_command to take a single flags argument instead
+	  of two int args; changed caller
+	- type now has two new options:  -f suppresses function lookup (like
+	  command), and -P forces a PATH search for the name(s)
+
+builtins/common.h
+	- flags for describe_command are here
+	- changed extern declaration of describe_command
+
+builtins/command.def
+	- changed call to describe_command to use flags from common.h, and

+lib/readline/rldefs.h
+	- fixed prototype for _rl_strnicmp
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- select_query now takes a new argument, an int flag saying whether
+	  or not to print the menu the first time through the loop.  An
+	  empty line in response to the prompt will always cause the menu
+	  to be reprinted
+	- changed execute_select_command to cause select_query to reprint
+	  the menu only if REPLY is set to NULL, if KSH_COMPATIBLE_SELECT
+	  is defined
+
+config-top.h
+	- define KSH_COMPATIBLE_SELECT, with a comment about its meaning
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- change rl_insert_comment to toggle if given an explicit numeric
+	  argument:  if the first characters on the line don't specify a
+	  comment, insert one; if they do, delete the comment text
+
+doc/bash.1, lib/readline/doc/{readline.3,rluser.texinfo}
+	- documented new behavior of insert-comment with a numeric argument

+lib/malloc/Makefile.in, Makefile.in
+	necessary changes to include watch.c in libmalloc
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- fix rl_delete_text to make sure that the starting position is >= 0
+	- _rl_init_line_state (called by readline via readline_initialize)
+	  now sets rl_mark to 0
+	- rl_get_{next,previous}_history set rl_mark to 0 if rl_point is at
+	  the end of the line and rl_end otherwise in emacs mode
+
+lib/readline/kill.c
+	- rl_yank_nth_arg_internal and rl_paste_clipboard now set the mark
+	  at point before calling rl_insert_text, like rl_yank
+	- rl_kill_full_line now resets rl_mark to 0
+	- rl_kill_line and rl_backward_kill_line now set rl_mark to the

+
+lib/readline/search.c
+	- noninc_search saves and restores the mark, since it can be changed
+	  while reading the search string
+	- noninc_dosearch sets the mark at the end of the line, making the
+	  region bound the `inserted' text since rl_point is set to 0
+	- rl_history_search_internal sets the mark at the end of the line,
+	  for the same reason
+
+lib/readline/isearch.c
+	- rl_search_history now saves and restores the mark
+	- if no matching lines are found at all when doing an isearch, leave

+	- include rltypedefs.h
+
+				   12/19
+				   -----
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- slight change to mark-directories code to avoid adding a slash if
+	  point is at the end of the line (rl_line_buffer[rl_point] == '\0')
+	  and the previous character was a slash
+	- change printable_part to not return empty pathnames, which could
+	  happen when completing filenames and a filename with a trailing
+	  slash was passed as the argument.  If the portion following the
+	  trailing slash is NULL, ignore it and look for a previous slash.
+	  If there's no previous slash, just return the filename argument
+	- new variable, rl_completion_mark_symlink_dirs, mirrors the value
+	  of (user-settable with a variable) _rl_complete_mark_symlink_dirs
+	  but may be modified by application-specific completion functions
+	  when appropriate (set in rl_complete_internal and rl_menu_complete)
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- extern declaration for rl_completion_mark_symlink_dirs

+	  imposed by a restricted shell
+
+expr.c
+	- broke the code that evaluates variables and returns results out
+	  of readtok() into a new function: expr_streval()
+	- expr_streval() now performs the standard unset variable error
+	  behavior if `set -u' has been executed and it's asked to look
+	  up an unset variable
+	- broke the code that frees up the expression context stack into
+	  a new function: expr_unwind()
+
+variables.c
+	- fixed bind_int_variable so it handles array element assignment,
+	  so expressions like `b[7]++' and `b[0] = 42' work right
+	- new function, get_variable_value, returns the string value of
+	  the SHELL_VAR * passed as an argument
+	- get_string_value now calls get_variable_value with a non-null
+	  result from find_variable

+	- header files should not include <config.h>
+
+parse.y
+	- replace code in decode_prompt_string that chops up value returned
+	  by ctime(3) with calls to strftime -- as a result, the expansion
+	  of \@ has changed slightly (since it depends on the locale)
+	- added new \D{format} prompt string escape; `format' is passed to
+	  strftime(3).  Empty format is the same as `%X' (locale-specific
+	  representation of the current time)
+	- combined cases for '\\', '\a', '\e', and '\r' in same case branch
+	  in decode_prompt_string
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}

+	- new extern declaration for yy_input_name()
+
+{error,locale}.c
+	- use yy_input_name for error and other messages
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- change shell_execve to make sure that the file is executable
+	  before looking at the interpreter to find out why the execve()
+	  failed (avoids misleading error message)
+
+lib/glob/glob.c
+	- move code that matches leading `.' and skips those filenames into
+	  a separate function: skipname(), so there can be unibyte and
+	  multibyte versions of that function
+
+				    1/7
+				    ---
+subst.c
+	- more changes for multibyte characters
+
+print_cmd.c
+	- change semicolon() so it doesn't output a `;' immediately after a

+	  error
+
+variables.c
+	- fix indirection_level_string to turn off set -x while evaluating
+	  PS4
+
+				    1/8
+				    ---
+builtins/set.def
+	- make -o options into one struct, instead of separate structs for
+	  option names corresponding to flags and non-flag option names.
+	  This has the side effect of sorting the option names in output
+
+lib/glob/glob.c
+	- new function, mbskipname(), multibyte char version of skipname()
+	- removed all #ifndef SHELL code, this will never be used outside
+	  the shell
+
+include/posixdir.h
+	- move REAL_DIR_ENTRY define here from lib/glob/glob.c
+
+lib/glob/glob_loop.c

+
+lib/glob/Makefile.in

+	- changes for xmbsrtowcs.[co]
+
+lib/glob/xmbsrtowcs.c

+lib/glob/strmatch.c
+	- strip out everything except strmatch(), which either calls fnmatch

+
+lib/glob/Makefile.in, Makefile.in

+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- new function, rl_completion_mode (rl_command_func_t *func), returns
+	  the appropriate value to pass to rl_complete_internal depending on
+	  FUNC and the value of `show-all-if-ambiguous'.  This allows
+	  application completion functions to present the same interface as

+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- new extern declaration for rl_completion_mode()
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo
+	- documented rl_completion_mode
+
+lib/readline/readline.[ch]
+	- bumped the version number to 4.3, changing the relevant cpp defines
+
+configure.in
+	- require that an installed readline version be at least readline-4.3
+
+bashline.c
+	- converted bash-specific completion functions to use

+
+builtins/bashgetopt.c
+	- the `#' option specifier now means a required numeric argument,
+	  not an optional one
+
+builtins/type.def
+	- when converting [-]-{path,type,all} to -[pta], don't bother
+	  freeing and reallocating the option string; just change opt[1]

+
+lib/sh/snprintf.c

+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- new function, rl_replace_line, to replace the readline line buffer
+	  with the text supplied as an argument
+	- new function, rl_replace_from_history, replaces readline line

+
+lib/readline/readlne.h
+	- new extern declaration for rl_replace_line
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo

+
+lib/readline/{isearch,readline,search}.c
+	- use rl_replace_line and rl_replace_from_history where appropriate

+
+lib/readline/{complete.c,rlprivate.h}

+
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- postprocess_matches and _rl_free_match_list now return immediately
+	  if passed a null match list
+
+variables.c
+	- new function, find_local_variable, finds a local variable by name
+	  at the current variable context
+	- in find_variable_internal, call find_local_variable before searching
+	  any of the temporary environments if variable_context > 0 (meaning
+	  we're in a shell function).  This lets a local variable
+	  override a variable whose value was passed in the `function
+	  environment'
+
+				   1/15
+				   ----
+variables.h, execute_cmd.c
+	- declare variables describing the temporary environments in
+	  variables.h instead of in C files
+
+findcmd.c, builtins/setattr.def
+	- instead of calling find_tempenv_variable, use find_variable_internal
+	  and check whether the returned SHELL_VAR * has the tempvar
+	  attribute
+
+variables.c
+	- tentative change to lookup order in find_variable_internal so that
+	  function local variables are found before variables in
+	  function_env when executing a shell function
+	- change make_local_variable to handle making a local variable when
+	  a variable with the same name already appears in one of the
+	  temporary environments
+	- broke the body of make_var_array out into a new function:
+		static char **make_env_array_from_var_list (SHELL_VAR **vars)
+	- new function, make_var_array_internal, takes a hash table to look
+	  in and a pointer to a mapping function and returns a char **
+	  environment-style list
+	- make_var_array now just calls make_var_array_internal
+	- new mapping function, local_and_exported, returns all local variables
+	  in the current variable context with the export attribute set
+	- new function, make_local_export_array, returns an environment-style
+	  char ** array of exported local variables in current context
+	- change environment creation order in maybe_make_export_env to
+	  add variables to the environment in opposite order that
+	  find_variable_internal uses.  This means that local variables in
+	  shell functions override variables with the same name in the
+	  function_env
+	- change make_local_variable to set the initial value of the
+	  variable it creates to NULL to make the `is set' and `is null'
+	  tests that the expansion code does work right
+	- change make_local_variable to inherit the value of a variable with
+	  the same name from the temporary enviroment
+
+				   1/16
+				   ----
+Makefile.in
+	- link bashversion with buildversion.o instead of version.o, for

+	  buildversion.o is for the build system
+
+error.c
+	- add line numbers to internal_error() messages if the shell is
+	  not interactive and running a shell script or a -c command
+	- report_error now prints non-zero line numbers for non-interactive
+	  shells
+
+test.c
+	- test_syntax_error now calls builtin_error() instead of printing

+
+builtins/common.c
+	- builtin_error now prints line numbers if a non-interactive shell
+	  is running a shell script or a -c command
+
+print_cmd.c
+	- in cprintf, remove free_argp, since it's not used
+
+builtins/history.def
+	- make `history -n' increment the number of history lines in this
+	  session by the number of lines read from the history file
+
+arrayfunc.c
+	- fix array_value_internal to expand the subscript even if the
+	  variable is unset, so side effects produced by the arithmetic

+
+lib/readline/doc/{rluser,rltech}.texinfo
+	- some fixes for printing in @smallbook format from Brian

+
+				   1/17

+jobs.h
+	- new PRUNNING, PSTOPPED, PDEADPROC defines for PROCESSes, analogous
+	  to RUNNING, STOPPED, and DEADJOB defines for jobs
+
+jobs.c
+	- use PS_RUNNING, PS_DONE, PS_STOPPED values for `running' field
+	  of a PROCESS
+	- find_pipeline and find_job now take an additional flags argument
+	  that, if non-zero, means to find only running processes; changed
+	  all callers
+	- changed calls to find_pipeline and find_job made from waitchld
+	  to find only running processes
+	- find_pipeline takes a third argument: an int *.  If it looks in
+	  the jobs list to find the pid, and the arg is non-null, it passes
+	  the job index back to the caller.  Used to avoid calls to
+	  find_pipeline immediately followed by find_job with the same PID
+
+nojobs.c
+	- a couple of changes to make sure that set_pid_status is never
+	  called with a pid argument of 0 or -1
+
+trap.c
+	- change trap_handler to longjmp to wait_intr_buf (set by wait_builtin)
+	  if a signal is received for which a trap has been set during
+	  execution of the wait builtin (need to include builtins.h and
+	  builtins/builtext.h and declare some extern variables for the
+	  right things to check)
+	- new variable to keep track of which signal caused the longjmp to
+	  wait_intr_buf, set by trap_handler (wait_signal_received)
+
+builtins/wait.def
+	- set the return value of wait when a longjmp(wait_intr_buf, 1) is
+	  done to 128 + wait_signal_received
+
+{jobs,nojobs}.c
+	- set wait_signal_received to SIGINT in wait_sigint_handler before

+bashline.c
+	- turn off rl_filename_completion_desired when completing a command

+	- if there are multiple identical matches for a command name in
+	  attempt_shell_completion, turn off rl_filename_completion_desired

+lib/readline/rlprivate.h
+	- extern declaration for _rl_page_completions

+
+lib/readline/doc/{rluser.texinfo,readline.3}, doc/bash.1

+
+lib/readline/terminal.c
+	- fetch and save terminal's `vs' and `ve' cursor control attributes

+	  or very visible (overwrite mode)
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- new global variable, rl_insert_mode
+	- new function to toggle overwrite mode, rl_overwrite_mode
+	- each new line starts in insert mode
+	- switching to vi mode or emacs mode resets to insert mode
+	- reset cursor to normal before returning line
+	- _rl_replace_text now returns the number of characters inserted,
+	  the return value from rl_insert_text
+	- new function, _rl_insert_or_replace_text (const char *string, int insert),
+	  either inserts STRING or replaces the number of chars in STRING
+	  with STRING starting at rl_point, depending on value of INSERT
+	- renamed rl_insert to _rl_insert_char, rl_insert just calls
+	  _rl_insert_char with the same arguments when in insert mode
+	- new function, _rl_overwrite_char, handles self-insert in overwrite
+	  mode.  Does multibyte chars by reading an entire multibyte character
+	  before entering overwrite loop
+	- new function, _rl_overwrite_rubout, handles RUBOUT when in

+
+lib/readline/readline.h

+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- return 0 immediately from rl_insert_text if the string to insert

+
+bashline.c
+	- if a numeric argument is given to one of the bash-specific glob
+	  pattern completion functions (including TAB), append a `*' to
+	  the word before generating matches
+	- in attempt_shell_completion, when doing glob completion, only
+	  set the match list to NULL if rl_completion_type == TAB and
+	  there is more than one completion.  This permits listing completions
+	  with double tabs and displaying ambiguous completions
+	- new function, bash_glob_complete_word, appends a `*' to the word
+	  to be completed and then globs it.  It uses a new filename
+	  quoting function (bash_glob_quote_filename) to avoid quoting
+	  globbing characters in the filename if there are no matches or

+
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- set completion_changed_buffer to 0 in rl_complete_internal if

+	  completion functions, always 0 when application completion
+	  functions are called (set to 0 by rl_complete_internal and
+	  rl_menu_complete)

+
+lib/readline/readline.h

+pcomplete.h

+
+builtins/complete.def

+
+bashline.c
+	- if a programmable completion specifies COPT_NOSPACE, set

+
+variables.h
+	- new struct var_context, variable context (per-scope -- global,
+	  function local, etc.)
+
+variables.[ch],builtins/common.[ch]
+	- moved functions that push and pop a variable context from

+	- new function, all_local_variables
+	- variable_in_context is now static, used only by all_local_variables
+
+variables.[ch],execute_cmd.c
+	- push_context now takes the function name as an argument for
+	  future use
+	- push_context takes an indication of whether or not the function is

+	- make sure VAR is set to NULL if check for variable_context fails
+	  and we didn't just create or fetch a local variable in
+	  declare_internal
+	- in non-function branch of declare_internal, only call find_variable

+variables.[ch]
+	- the temporary environments (temporary_env, builtin_env, function_env)
+	  are now HASH_TABLEs instead of argv-style arrays of strings (this

+	  table scope structure)
+	- new internal attribute for variables: att_propagate.  This means
+	  to propagate the value out of the temporary environment up the
+	  (for now implicit) chain of variable scopes when the containing
+	  temporary environment is deleted
+
+variables.c
+	- assign_in_env now adds to the HASH_TABLE temporary_env instead
+	  of making environment-style strings in an array of strings
+	- changed the way the temporary environments are merged into the
+	  shell variable table to account for the new HASH_TABLE temp
+	  environments
+	- changed the way the export environment is created due to the new

+	- new function, bind_variable_internal (name, value, table), binds
+	  NAME to have VALUE in TABLE without searching the temporary

+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- we no longer need to copy the temporary environment to function_env
+	  or builtin_env, we can simply use variable assignments
+
+{findcmd,subst,variables}.c, builtins/{declare,setattr}.def
+	- since variables from the temporary environments are no longer turned
+	  into SHELL_VARs on the fly, don't dispose the SHELL_VAR returned
+	  by find_variable or find_variable_internal
+	- need to savestring() the value returned by find_variable if it has
+	  the tempvar attribute before calling bind_variable on it, because
+	  bind_variable will search and bind into the temporary environments
+	  and will free the old value before binding the new.  For temporary
+	  environments, these two pointers will be the same, and
+	  bind_tempenv_variable will end up using freed memory
+
+builtins/{declare,setattr}.def
+	- set the att_propagate attribute when exporting or making readonly
+	  variables from the temp environment (i.e., `var=value declare -x var'
+	  or `var=value export var' sets the propagate attribute on the entry
+	  for `var' in the temporary environment HASH_TABLE)

+	  is reset before that next call?  This means that OPTIND is always
+	  incremented to the next option to be handled when an option is
+	  returned, whether it's valid or not.  This is what POSIX-2002
+	  says to do.
+
+syntax.h
+	- new #define, CSUBSTOP
+
+mksyntax.c
+	- add "-=?+" with value CSUBSTOP to the syntax table.  These are the
+	  valid expansion operators OP in ${param[:]OPword}
+
+subst.c
+	- use table lookup for CSUBSTOP in VALID_PARAM_EXPAND_CHAR
+	- new flags for the string extraction functions:  EX_NOALLOC.  This
+	  indicates that the functions are being used only to skip over
+	  strings and the result won't be used, so the substring shouldn't
+	  be allocated, copied, and freed
+	- new flag for string_extract:  EX_VARNAME.  This serves the same
+	  purpose as the old `varname' parameter.  parameter_brace_expand()
+	  changed appropriately
+	- extract_delimited_string and extract_dollar_brace_string now take
+	  an additional `flags' argument, which may include EX_NOALLOC
+	- changed callers of extract_delimited_string and
+	  extract_dollar_brace_string appropriately
+	- string_extract now understands EX_NOALLOC; callers changed
+	- some smaller code cleanups
+	- converted char_is_quoted(), unclosed_pair(), and skip_to_delim()
+	  to understand multibyte characters

+variables.[ch]
+	- moved to a symbol organization inspired by lcc.  The basic structure
+	  is no longer a HASH_TABLE, but a VAR_CONTEXT, which includes a hash
+	  table as one of its members.  VAR_CONTEXTs are linked together to do
+	  variable scoping.  One nice thing about this is that the entire
+	  symbol table doesn't need to be searched at function scope exit to
+	  remove local variables.  Fixes problems with only one instance of
+	  builtin_env and function_env, even though it really is a stack
+	- shell_variables is now a VAR_CONTEXT *, with a global_variables
+	  variable that points to the bottom of the stack for fast access
+	- function-scope local variables (assignments specified on the command
+	  line before a function call) and function-local variables (declared
+	  with the `local' builtin) have been unified in the same variable
+	  context, replacing function_env
+	- assignment statements preceding the `.' and `eval' builtins are now
+	  a separate variable scope VAR_CONTEXT, replacing builtin_env
+	- temporary_env (a HASH_TABLE) is now the only separate environment
+	- changes to export environment creation, variable binding, variable
+	  lookup, local variable propagation all changed to work with the
+	  new symbol table/scope structure
+	- a SHELL_VAR no longer has a `prev_context' member; it's not needed
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- changes to push_context calls to include any temporary variables in
+	  temporary_env; pop_context takes care of propagating any temporary
+	  variables if necessary
+	- calls to push_scope if `eval' or `.' is called with a list of
+	  preceding variable assignments, and pop_scope called at end of
+	  builtin's execution.  pop_scope takes care of merging temporary
+	  variables into the shell environment when appropriate
+
+builtins/{setattr,declare}.def
+	- changes to account for variable assignments preceding `local',
+	  `export', `readonly', `declare', etc. to work with the new
+	  variable scoping implementation
+
+shell.c
+	- since shell_variables is now a VAR_CONTEXT, call
+	  delete_all_contexts() when the shell is reinitializing instead of
+	  delete_all_variables()
+
+builtins/common.c
+	- new function, get_job_by_name(), used by execute_simple_command()

+	  operator: [N]<<< word
+	- recognize LESS_LESS_LESS and create the appropriate redirection
+
+{dispose_cmd,copy_cmd,make_cmd,print_cmd}.c
+	- recognize r_reading_string and do the right thing (dispose_redirects,
+	  copy_redirect, print_redirection, and make_redirection, respectively)
+
+redir.c
+	- here_document_to_fd now takes the redirection operator as its
+	  second argument
+	- new function, write_here_string, expands a here string and writes it
+	  to the here document file descriptor
+	- here_document_to_fd calls write_here_string for r_reading_string
+	  operator
+	- handle r_reading_string in do_redirection_internal() and

+	- be more consistent about using value_cell(var) instead of

+	  var->value directly
+
+builtins/setattr.def
+	- change show_var_attributes to show function definitions separately
+	  from function attributes.  This allows the output of `declare -f'
+	  (with other flags), `export -f', and `readonly -f' to be reused as
+	  shell input, instead of the old
+
+		declare -f[flags] func()
+		{

+subst.c
+	- word_split() now takes a second argument: the value of $IFS, so

+	- do a quick scan for CTLNUL in remove_quoted_nulls before allocating

+hashlib.c
+	- renamed hash_string to hash_bucket, which better reflects what it

+	- made new body of hash_bucket into a macro HASH_BUCKET; function
+	  just calls the macro

+	- fixed flush_hash_table to set table->nentries to 0 after freeing
+	  all entries
+	- BUCKET_CONTENTS now has a new `khash' member, what key hashes to;
+	  set by HASH_BUCKET macro (which calls hash_string), assigned in

+	- find_hash_item and remove_hash_item check `khash' against the

+
+alias.c
+	- short-circuit all_aliases and map_over_aliases if

+	- simplify map_over_aliases by just allocating enough room in the

+	  appropriate
+	- if assign_in_env() is called with a var assignment like `VAR=',

+array.[ch]
+	- new function, array_rshift, shifts an array right by a specified

+
+examples/bashdb/bashdb
+	- new single-file version of bash debugger, originally modified from
+	  version in bash-2.04 by Gary Vaughan (the old debugger still
+	  appears in examples/obashdb).  This version has a more gdb-like
+	  command set
+
+examples/bashdb/bashdb.el
+	- new emacs bashdb debugger mode from Masatake YAMATO <jet@gyve.org>
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- don't make $LINENO relative to function start unless the shell is
+	  currently interactive -- this is what ksh93 does and what I
+	  believe to be the intent of POSIX.2 (this required changing some
+	  of the test checks because the output has changed)
+	- run the debug trap for each command in an arithmetic for expression,
+	  like ksh93 does
+
+lib/readline/vi_mode.c
+	- redid rl_vi_subst (binding func for `s' and `S') in terms of
+	  rl_vi_change_to:  `S' == `cc' and `s' == `c '.  This makes undo

+
+lib/sh/stringlist.c, externs.h

+	- new function: strlist_flush, frees items in the contained list
+	  with strvec_flush
+	- renamed functions to have a strlist_ prefix and be more systematic
+
+pcomplib.c,pcomplete.h

+	- renamed the list functions to have a list_ prefix, changed callers
+
+externs.h,{execute_cmd,stringlib,subst}.c,builtins/common.c,lib/sh/stringvec.c
+	- word_list_to_argv -> strvec_from_word_list
+	- argv_to_word_list -> strvec_to_word_list
+	- moved functions to lib/sh/stringvec.c
+
+lib/sh/stringvec.c
+	- changed name of second argument to strvec_from_word_list from `copy'
+	  to `alloc' so the use of `copy' between strvec_from_word_list and
+	  strvec_to_word_list isn't as confusing
+	- changed name and sense of second argument to
+	  strvec_to_word_list from `copy' to `alloc' for the same reason --
+	  now both functions agree on semantics of second argument
+
+lib/sh/stringlist.c
+	- ditto for strlist_from_word_list and strlist_to_word_list
+
+subst.c
+	- changed callers of strvec_to_word_list

+
+lib/sh/stringlist.c
+	- added strlist_remove(sl, s), just calls strvec_remove on the

+
+externs.h
+	- new extern declarations for strvec_remove and strlist_remove
+	- fixed extern declaration for strvec_search; the arguments were

+
+subst.c
+	- change param_expand to call quote_escapes on values retrieved when
+	  expanding the positional parameters
+	- change parameter_brace_expand_word to quote escapes on values
+	  retrieved when expanding the positional parameters
+	- fix parameter_brace_substring to quote escape characters on unquoted
+	  substrings extracted from variable values (needed to separate case
+	  VT_VARIABLE from VT_ARRAYMEMBER for this, since, because
+	  get_var_and_type calls array_value for VT_ARRAYMEMBER, we need to
+	  skip over quoted characters in an already-appropriately-quoted
+	  string to find the substring we want)
+	- fix parameter_brace_substring to quote escape characters in the

+	  pos_params() quotes the string for us)
+	- fix parameter_brace_substring to quote escape characters in the

+	- new function, quoted_strlen(s), does strlen(s) while skipping over

+	- changed pos_params() so it always returns a list whose members are

+
+lib/sh/strtrans.c
+	- make the for_echo parameter to ansicstr a `flags' parameter that

+	- Added code to the `flags' parameter to ansicstr so that if flags&2
+	  is non-zero, CTLESC and CTLNUL are escaped with CTLESC in the
+	  expanded string
+	- change ansiexpand() to call ansicstr with a `flags' parameter of 2
+
+				   3/26

+lib/readline/histfile.c

+
+				   3/27
+				   ----
+arrayfunc.c
+	- changed array_value_internal to take an additional `int *'
+	  parameter, in which is returned the type of array indexing
+	  performed (array[@] vs. array or array[index])
+	- changed array_value and get_array_value to take a corresponding
+	  extra parameter and pass it to array_value_internal
+	- changed array_value_internal to no longer return newly-allocated
+	  memory or quote CTLESC and CTLNUL in the returned string if
+	  `simple' array indexing (subscript not `@' or `*') is being
+	  performed.  This makes it more like a variable lookup
+
+arrayfunc.h
+	- changed prototypes for array_value and get_array_value
+
+expr.c
+	- added new parameter to call to get_array_value in expr_streval
+	- don't need to free memory returned by get_array_value any more
+
+subst.c
+	- quote_escapes now works with multibyte characters
+	- dequote_string now works with multibyte characters
+	- dequote_escapes is now needed, so it's compiled in, and it
+	  now works with multibyte characters
+	- remove_quoted_escapes now just calls dequote_escapes and copies the
+	  result over the argument string
+	- remove_quoted_nulls now returns its char * argument, parallels
+	  remove_quoted_escapes
+	- parameter_brace_expand_word now passes the new argument to
+	  array_value and quotes CTLESC and CTLNUL in the result if it's a
+	  `simple' array expansion by calling quote_escapes
+	- get_var_and_type now returns VT_ARRAYMEMBER for references like
+	  ${array} where `array' is an array variable (just like ${array[0]}).
+	  Documented (in comment) that a VT_VARIABLE return value means that
+	  quote_escapes has been called at some point
+	- changed callers of get_var_and_type to no longer free value if
+	  VT_ARRAYMEMBER is returned as type
+	- changed parameter_brace_substring and parameter_brace_patsub to
+	  call dequote_escapes on the value from get_var_and_type if the
+	  type is VT_VARIABLE, since the substring and pattern substitution
+	  code doesn't understand CTLESC quoting
+	- parameter_brace_substring no longer needs to call quoted_substring
+	  for the VT_ARRAYMEMBER case
+	- changed parameter_brace_patsub to call quote_escapes on the result
+	  of pat_subst for the VT_VARIABLE and VT_ARRAYMEMBER cases, and to
+	  quote the returned string in the VT_ARRAYVAR and VT_POSPARAMS cases
+	  if the `MATCH_QUOTED' flag isn't set (if it is, the pattern
+	  substitution functions perform any necessary quoting)
+	- quoted_substring is no longer used; it's now #ifdef INCLUDE_UNUSED
+
+lib/malloc/mstats.h
+	- new member in _malstats: u_bits32_t bytesreq, the total number of
+	  bytes requested by the caller via calls to malloc() and realloc()
+
+lib/malloc/stats.c
+	- print bytesreq member in _print_malloc_stats
+	- don't print statistics for buckets for which nmal == 0 (no mallocs)
+
+lib/malloc/malloc.c
+	- modified internal_malloc, internal_realloc to keep running total of

+
+error.c

+subst.[ch]
+	- changed Q_NOQUOTE to Q_PATQUOTE; it makes the intent more clear
+
+subst.c
+	- moved code from parameter_brace_expand into a new function that
+	  dispatches for pattern substitution: parameter_brace_remove_pattern
+	- changed structure of parameter_brace_remove_pattern to be like
+	  parameter_brace_patsub and its ilk:  call get_var_and_type to
+	  isolate the variable name, move the pattern isolation code out of
+	  the various *_remove_pattern functions into
+	  parameter_brace_remove_pattern and pass the results to the various
+	  functions, use a switch on the return value from get_var_and_type
+	  to decide which function to call, regularized the arguments to the
+	  separate pattern removal functions
+	- parameter_brace_remove_pattern now properly quotes escape chars in
+	  the returned value
+	- changed get_var_and_type to call dequote_escapes on the `value'
+	  parameter for case VT_VARIABLE and return the result in *valp,
+	  so the calling functions don't have to do it themselves; changed
+	  callers appropriately
+	- fixed getpattern() where it broke posix compliance:  if you enclose
+	  a pattern removal spec in double quotes, the outer double quotes
+	  have no effect on the pattern (POSIX.1-200x 2.6.2).  This uncovered
+	  a bug in the test suite (!)
+
+pathexp.c
+	- fixed a problem with quote_string_for_globbing where it would change
+	  consecutive CTLESC chars all to \ instead of changing every other
+	  quoted char

+lib/glob/smatch.c
+	- introduce `XCHAR' define, which is the type of arguments passed to

+	- static arrays in single-byte version of rangecmp() are `char', not
+	  `unsigned char', so compilers don't complain about calls to strcoll
+
+lib/glob/sm_loop.c

+	- use prototype declaration for BRACKMATCH if `PROTOTYPES' is defined
+	  to avoid problems with type promotion (unsigned char -> int)

+	- removed the $DOCNAME directive for `shopt', `true', and `false';
+	  just use the names
+	- changed $DOCNAME for `:' to just be `colon' instead of
+	  `colon_builtin'
+
+builtins/reserved.def
+	- added help entries for ((, [[, `for (('
+
+builtins/let.def
+	- add id++, id--, ++id, --id, ** to help text
+
+				    4/8
+				    ---
+builtins/bashgetopt.[ch]
+	- changed to allow options beginning with `+', enabled by a leading
+	  `+' in the option string
+	- new variable, list_opttype, set to `-' or `+'
+
+builtins/{common.c,{builtin,eval,exit,fg_bg,let,printf,pushd,return,source,wait}.def
+	- changes to allow a `--' option for every builtin that accepts
+	  operands but not options, as per posix.1-2001
+
+builtins/{declare,setattr}.def
+	- use internal_getopt for parsing options, now that it supports `+'
+
+builtins/set.def
+	- use internal_getopt for initial option parse, now that it supports
+	  a leading `+'
+
+
+{configure,Makefile}.in, builtins/{Makefile.in,help.def,mkbuiltins.c}
+	- support for a new configure option, ``--enable-separate-helpfiles'',
+	  moves the `long' help text to separate help files, installed by
+	  default into ${datadir}/bash, one file per builtin.  Off by
+	  default -- it saves 47K, but it's only 47K, and it's in the text
+	  segment
+
+flags.c
+	- build internal_getopt() option string argument from flags array at
+	  runtime in shell.c
+
+shell.c
+	- new variable to control writing malloc stats at exit:
+	  malloc_trace_at_exit, 0 by default
+
+lib/malloc/malloc.c
+	- heavily updated:
+		o partial page allocated on first call to malloc to make
+		  subsequent sbrks page-aligned no longer wasted
+		o begin and end range guards are now the same value: the chunk
+		  requested
+		o coalescing code was changed to attempt to coalesce first two
+		  adjacent blocks on the free list; enabled by default
+		o blocks of size 32 are now candidates for larger block
+		  splitting, since 32 is the most popular size
+		o blocks of size 32 are now candidates for smaller block
+		  coalescing
+		o the IN_BUCKET check was changed to just make sure that the
+		  size isn't too big for the bucket, since the `busy block'
+		  checking code may increase the bucket by one or more,
+		  meaning that the old check would fail and cause a panic when
+		  a chunk allocated in such a way was freed
+		o bin sizes are now precomputed and looked up in an array
+		  rather than being computed at runtime
+		o moved the _mstats declaration here to avoid the stats code
+		  being linked in even when no stats functions were called
+		  (only matters if MALLOC_DEBUG is defined)
+		o malloc now keeps track of the address of the top of the heap
+		  and will return large chunks to the system with calls to
+		  sbrk with a negative argument when freeing the top chunk.
+		  Two thresholds:  LESSCORE_FRC means to unconditionally return
+		  memory to the system; LESSCORE_MIN means to return memory if
+		  there's at least one block already on the free list
+
+lib/malloc/mstats.h
+	- stats struct now keeps track of number of block coalesces by bin,
+	  and the number of times memory was returned to the system by bin
+
+lib/malloc/stats.c
+	- trace_malloc_stats now takes a second argument: the name of the file
+	  to write to.  The first `%p' in the template file name is replaced
+	  by the pid
+
+				    4/9
+				    ---
+lib/malloc/imalloc.h
+	- added some macros derived from dlmalloc and glibc malloc to inline
+	  memcpy and memset if the requested size is <= 32 bytes
+
+lib/malloc/malloc.c
+	- use MALLOC_MEMSET instead of memset in internal_{malloc,free}
+
+include/ocache.h
+	- use OC_MEMSET (variant of MALLOC_MEMSET) in ocache_free
+
+configure.in, config.h.in
+	- check for getservent(), define HAVE_GETSERVENT if found
+
+bashline.c
+	- punt immediately from bash_servicename_completion_function if
+	  HAVE_GETSERVENT is not defined (cygwin seems to not define it)
+	- include "input.h" for extern save_token_state() and
+	  restore_token_state() declarations
+	- change bash_execute_unix_command to call parse_and_execute with
+	  SEVAL_NOHIST flag so the command doesn't get saved on the history
+	  list
+	- change bash_execute_unix_command to save and restore the current
+	  command line count and the token state (last_read_token, etc.).
+	  Everything else is saved by either parse_and_execute directly or
+	  the call it makes to push_stream().  The shell_input_line stuff
+	  doesn't need to be saved and restored; it's not computed until
+	  readline() returns
+

+lib/glob/glob.[ch]
+	- glob_filename and glob_vector now take an additional `flags' arg
+	- define GX_MARKDIRS as possible flag value for glob_filename and
+	  glob_vector
+
+lib/sh/snprintf.c
+	- fixed some bugs with handling of `g' and `G' formats
+	- make sure numtoa returns the fractional part correctly when passed 0
+	- implemented thousands grouping for `'' flag character
+
+lib/sh/rename.c
+	- a few changes to make it more bulletproof
+
+				   4/11
+				   ----
+lib/glob/glob.c
+	- added the couple of dozen lines of code to glob_dir_to_array to
+	  finish implementing GX_MARKDIRS
+
+builtins/set.def
+	- changed unset builtin so that it no longer considers unsetting an
+	  unset variable or function to be an error
+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- fix to rl_redisplay for a problem which caused display to be messed
+	  up when the last line of a multi-line prompt (possibly containing
+	  invisible characters) was longer than the screen width
+
+				   4/15
+				   ----
+aclocal.m4

+	  enumerating all of the possible values and using AC_DEFINE
+
+				   4/16
+				   ----
+Makefile.in, {builtins,support}/Makefile.in
+	- new variables, CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD and CPPFLAGS_FOR_BUILD, substituted
+	  by `configure'
+	- changed CCFLAGS_FOR_BUILD to BASE_CCFLAGS, removing $(CPPFLAGS);
+	  CCFLAGS and CCFLAGS_FOR_BUILD now include $(BASE_CCFLAGS) with
+	  (possibly) different values for CPPFLAGS and CFLAGS 
+	- GCC_LINT_CFLAGS now includes $(BASE_CCFLAGS) and $(CPPFLAGS)
+	  instead of CCFLAGS_FOR_BUILD
+	- new variable, LDFLAGS_FOR_BUILD, right now equivalent to LDFLAGS
+	- remove $(CPPFLAGS) from recipes for buildversion, mksignames, and
+	  mksyntax
+
+configure.in
+	- compute and substitute CFLAGS_FOR_BUILD, CPPFLAGS_FOR_BUILD, and
+	  LDFLAGS_FOR_BUILD
+	- changed qnx to use LOCAL_LDFLAGS and LOCAL_LIBS instead of putting
+	  everything in LOCAL_LDFLAGS
+
+builtins/Makefile.in
+	- remove $(PROFILE_FLAGS) from recipe for building `mkbuiltins'
+	- use LDFLAGS_FOR_BUILD instead of LDFLAGS in recipe for building

+lib/tilde/Makefile.in
+	- substitute PROFILE_FLAGS, use PROFILE_FLAGS in $(CCFLAGS)
+
+				   4/25

+	  constant expression
+
+				    5/2
+				    ---
+lib/sh/shquote.c
+	- add `,' to list of chars that are backslash-quoted.  It doesn't

+	  inappropriately split by brace expansion after using
+	  complete-into-braces
+
+				    5/6
+				    ---
+lib/sh/xstrchr.c
+	- we only need the check of MB_CUR_MAX and the slow code for a
+	  few encodings, and even then only for a subset of the charset
+
+arrayfunc.c
+	- some speedups for skipsubscript and multibyte chars from Bruno Haible
+
+locale.c
+	- changed set_lang to call setlocale(LC_ALL, ...) if LC_ALL doesn't
+	  already have a value, but doesn't change any shell variables
+
+include/shmbutil.h
+	- major speedups from Bruno Haible, mostly concerned with reducing
+	  the number of strlen(3) calls
+
+subst.c
+	- change callers of macros in shmbutil.h to add extra argument as
+	  necessary
+	- skip_single_quoted and skip_double_quoted take another argument:
+	  the length of the string; mostly useful when using multibyte chars
+	- many speedups from precomputing string lengths at function start
+	- fixed a small bug in de_backslash in the midst of rewriting for
+	  better efficiency
+
+{braces,make_cmd,pathexp}.c
+	- change callers of macros in shmbutil.h to add extra argument as
+	  necessary
+
+pathexp.c
+	- fix a one-too-far problem with multibyte chars in
+	  unquoted_glob_pattern_p
+
+braces.c
+	- brace_gobbler takes a new argument, the length of the passed string
+	- expand_amble takes a new argument, the length of the passed string
+
+				    5/7
+				    ---
+subst.c
+	- modified remove_quoted_nulls to eliminate the memory allocation and
+	  do the copy in place using the same strategy as de_backslash
+
+lib/readline/{rldefs.h,complete.c}
+	- new define RL_QF_OTHER_QUOTE, so _rl_find_completion_word can note

+
+				    5/9

+builtins/common.h
+	- new #defines to use for value of changed_dollar_vars (provides

+
+builtins/common.c
+	- changed set_dollar_vars_changed to set changed_dollar_vars to one
+	  of the ARGS_* values depending on the caller and environment
+
+builtins/source.def
+	- source restores the positional parameters unless the `set' builtin
+	  was called to specify a new set while not executing a shell function
+
+				   5/13

+POSIX
+	- new file, was in CWRU/POSIX.NOTES
+
+doc/{Makefile.in,Makefile}
+	- changed `posix' rule to modify ../POSIX
+
+doc/mkposix
+	- write to `POSIX' by default
+
+lib/sh/strtrans.c
+	- when ansicstr is parsing a format string for `echo -e' (or the

+	  standard and accept 0-3 octal digits after a leading `0'
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- updated `echo' description to note that up to three octal digits

+				   ----
+doc/Makefile.in
+	- remove the generated documentation on `make distclean' if the
+	  build directory and source directory are not the same
+
+Makefile.in
+	- descend into `support' subdirectory on a `make clean' and
+	  `make distclean'
+	- remove parser-built, y.tab[ch] on a `make distclean' if the build
+	  directory and source directory are not the same
+
+support/Makefile.in
+	- support various `clean' targets and remove man2html.o and man2html
+
+{configure,Makefile}.in
+	- move values for DEBUG and MALLOC_DEBUG into configure.in; on by
+	  default for development versions; off by default for releases
+	  (off for profiling, too)
+
+				   5/21
+				   ----
+parse.y
+	- modified the grammar to allow a simple_list followed by yacc_EOF
+	  to terminate a command.  This fixes problems with things like
+	  a backslash-newline at the end of an `eval'd string
+	- change handle_eof_input_unit() to reset the token state before
+	  calling prompt_again(), in case the prompt to be evaluated contains
+	  a command substitution
+
+				   5/23
+				   ----
+lib/readline/vi_mode.c

+				   ----
+lib/malloc/watch.c
+	- don't try to print `file' argument to _watch_warn if it's null
+
+lib/malloc/malloc.c
+	- changed guard checking code in internal_{malloc,free,realloc} to
+	  access memory as (char *) and copy into a union instead of
+	  casting and dereferencing a pointer to u_bits32_t, since that
+	  results in unaligned accesses which will cause Sparcs to upchuck
+
+				   5/30
+				   ----
+[bash-2.05b-beta1 released]
+
+lib/readline/text.c

+
+				    6/4
+				    ---
+expr.c

+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- fix core dump when line wrapping a multibyte character (line
+	  accidentally dropped from the original patch)
+
+lib/readline/mbutil.c

+shell.c
+	- change init_noninteractive to init expand_aliases to the value of
+	  posixly_correct
+	- don't initialize expand_aliases to posixly_correct anywhere else.
+	  This allows the -O expand_aliases invocation option to work correctly
+
+general.c
+	- fix move_to_high_fd to not try the dup2 unless the fd loop results
+	  in an fd > 3; just return the passed file descriptor otherwise
+	- use HIGH_FD_MAX, defined in general.h, instead of hard-coded 256
+	  as highest file descriptor to try
+
+subst.c
+	- in process_substitute, call move_to_high_fd with `maxfd' parameter
+	  of -1 instead of 64, so move_to_high_fd will use its maximum
+
+				   6/21
+				   ----
+lib/malloc/malloc.c
+	- don't bother calling MALLOC_MEMSET if the requested size is 0
+
+builtins/setattr.def
+	- note in short doc that export and readonly can take assignment

+
+error.c
+	- new function, error_prolog(), to capture common error message
+	  prefix code (except for parser errors)
+
+				   6/25

+
+builtins/common.c
+	- fix bug in sh_nojobs where it doesn't pass the right number of args
+	  to builtin_error
+
+bashline.c
+	- when using command completion and trying to avoid appending a slash
+	  if there's a directory with the same name in the current directory,
+	  use absolute_pathname() instead of just checking whether the first
+	  char of the match is a slash to catch things like ./ and ../
+
+examples/complete/bashcc-1.0.1.tar.gz
+	- a package of completions for Clear Case, from Richard S. Smith
+	  (http://www.rssnet.org/bashcc.html)
+
+input.c
+	- fix check_bash_input to call sync_buffered_stream if the passed fd
+	  is 0 and the shell is currently reading input from fd 0 -- all it
+	  should cost is maybe an additional read system call, and it fixes
+	  the bug where an input redirection to a builtin inside a script
+	  which is being read from stdin causes the already-read-and-buffered
+	  part of the script to be thrown away, e.g.:
+
+		bash < x1
+
+	  where x1 is
+
+		hostname
+		read Input < t.in
+		echo $Input
+		echo xxx
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- in initialize_subshell(), call unset_bash_input (0) to not mess with
+	  fd 0 if that's where bash thinks it's reading input from.  Fixes
+	  bug reported by jg@cs.tu-berlin.de on 17 July 2002.  Should be a way
+	  to check whether or not the current fd 0 at the time of the call has
+	  not been redirected, like in the bug report.  Also might eventually
+	  want to throw in a sync_buffered_stream if bash is reading input
+	  from fd 0 in a non-interactive shell into a buffered stream, so the
+	  stream is sync'd -- might be necessary for some uses
+
+				   7/25
+				   ----
+lib/readline/signals.c
+	- make sure rl_catch_sigwinch is declared even if SIGWINCH is not

+bashline.c
+	- augment patch from 7/24 to not disable rl_filename_completion_desired

+	- when creating `shadow' keymaps `bound' to ANYOTHERKEY, don't bind
+	  a key whose type is ISFUNC but whose function is the `fake'
+	  rl_do_lowercase_version (fixes debian bash bug #154123)
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- don't call _rl_vi_set_last from _rl_dispatch_subseq if

+bashline.c

+
+lib/readline/mbutil.c

+builtins/exit.def
+	- broke code that runs ~/.bash_logout out into a separate function:
+	  bash_logout()
+
+builtins/common.h
+	- extern declaration for bash_logout()
+
+eval.c
+	- call bash_logout() from alrm_catcher(), so timed-out login shells
+	  run ~/.bash_logout before processing the exit trap
+
+lib/sh/strtrans.c
+	- implemented $'\x{hexdigits}' expansion from ksh93
+
+configure.in
+	- define RECYCLES_PIDS in LOCAL_CFLAGS for cygwin; don't bother to

+parse.y
+	- parse_arith_cmd now takes a second argument, a flag saying whether

+	  callers
+	- changed parse_dparen so it tells parse_arith_cmd to not add the
+	  double quotes and therefore doesn't need to remove them
+	- change parse_dparen to add W_NOGLOB|W_NOSPLIT|W_QUOTED flags to word
+	  created when parsing (( ... )) arithmetic command, since the double

+
+make_cmd.c
+	- in make_arith_for_expr, set the flags on the created word to

+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- change execute_arith_command to expand the expression with

+	- fix execute_arith_command to handle the case where the expanded

+
+tests/{arith-for,cprint}.tests

+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}

+
+				   8/30
+				   ----
+lib/readline/histexpand.c
+	- make history_expand_internal understand double quotes, because
+	  single quotes are not special inside double quotes, according to
+	  our shell-like quoting conventions.  We don't want unmatched
+	  single quotes inside double-quoted strings inhibiting history
+	  expansion
+	- make `a' modifier equivalent to `g' modifier for compatibility with
+	  the BSD csh
+	- add a `G' modifier that performs a given substitution once per word
+	  (tokenized as the shell would do it) like the BSD csh `g' modifier
+
+				   8/31
+				   ----
+braces.c
+	- when compiling for the shell, treat ${...} like \{...} instead of

+				   ----
+[prayers for the victims of 9/11/01]
+
+shell.c
+	- fix maybe_make_restricted to handle a restricted login shell with a
+	  base pathname of `-rbash' and skip over any leading `-'
+
+				   9/13
+				   ----
+builtins/evalstring.c
+	- in parse_and_execute, make sure we don't try to run unwind-protects
+	  back to `pe_dispose' after a longjmp back to top_level if the
+	  pe_dispose frame hasn't been initialized
+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- fix problem with prompt overwriting previous output when the output
+	  doesn't contain a newline in a multi-byte locale.  This also should
+	  fix the problem of bash slowing down drastically on long lines when
+	  using a multi-byte locale, because it no longer tries to rewrite the
+	  entire line each time.  Patch from Jiro SEKIBA <jir@yamato.ibm.com>
+
+parse.y
+	- move the typedef for alias_t that is compiled in if ALIAS is not
+	  defined up before the prototype for push_string, since that takes
+	  an alias_t * parameter
+
+lib/readline/terminal.c
+	- bind the termcap description's left and right arrow keys to
+	  rl_backward_char and rl_forward_char, respectively,  instead of
+	  rl_forward and rl_backward (which are just there for backwards
+	  compatibility)
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- when testing readability of /dev/stdin, redirect stdin from /dev/null
+	  to make sure it's a readable file
+
+				   9/17
+				   ----
+config-bot.h
+	- don't test __STDC__ when deciding whether or not to use stdarg.h;
+	  just use it if it's present
+
+tests/read2.sub
+	- redirect from /dev/tty when using `read -t' 
+
+				   9/20
+				   ----
+builtins/history.def
+	- when reading `new' entries from the history file with `history -n',
+	  fix increment of history_lines_this_session by taking any change
+	  in history_base into account
+
+lib/sh/pathphys.c
+	- changes to sh_physpath to deal with pathnames that end up being
+	  longer than PATH_MAX without dumping core
+
+lib/readline/doc/{history.3,hsuser.texinfo},doc/ bash.1
+	- documented new `a' and `G' history modifiers
+
+				   9/25
+				   ----
+lib/readline/misc.c
+	- when traversing the history list with arrow keys in vi insertion
+	  mode, put the cursor at the end of the line (like in emacs mode)
+
+mksyntax.c
+	- don't try to use \a and \v unless __STDC__ is defined; use the
+	  ascii integer equivalents otherwise
+	- include "config.h" in the generated syntax.c file for a possible
+	  definition of `const'
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- document the meaning of a null directory in $PATH
+
+				   9/26
+				   ----
+parse.y
+	- fix set_line_mbstate to handle case where mbrlen() returns 0,
+	  indicating the null wide character
+	- fix set_line_mbstate so we don't directly compare a char variable
+	  to EOF, since char can (and is) unsigned on some machines
+
+bashline.c
+	- change bash_execute_unix_command to save a little bit more state:
+	  last_shell_builtin, this_shell_builtin, last_command_exit_value
+
+				   9/27
+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- tentative change to execute_simple_command to avoid freeing freed
+	  memory in the case where bash forks early but still ends up calling
+	  execute_disk_command, without passing newly-allocated memory to
+	  make_child.  This may fix the core dumps with the linux-from-scratch
+	  folks
+
+				   9/28
+				   ----
+Makefile.in,{builtins,lib/sh}/Makefile.in	
+	- fix up dependencies, mostly on ${BUILD_DIR}/version.h, so that
+	  parallel makes work with GNU and BSD makes
+
+shell.h
+	- new struct to save partial parsing state when doing things like
+	  bash_execute_unix_command and other operations that execute
+	  commands while a line is being entered and parsed
+
+parse.y
+	- new functions, save_parser_state() and restore_parser_state(), to
+	  save and restore partial parsing state 
+
+bashline.c
+	- change bash_execute_unix_command to call {save,restore}_parser_state
+
+builtins/jobs.def
+	- change execute_list_with_replacements to eliminate a run_unwind_frame
+	  in favor of calling the cleanup explicitly and discarding the frame
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- change execute_for_command to avoid a run_unwind_frame in the case
+	  where the loop variable is readonly or otherwise not assignable
+	- change execute_select_command and execute_simple_command to use
+	  discard_unwind_frame by running the cleanup code explicitly, instead
+	  of using run_unwind_frame
+	- make sure execute_select_command decreases loop_level even on error
+
+				   9/30
+				   ----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- fixed description of `unset' now that unsetting a previously-unset
+	  variable is no longer an error
+
+				   10/3
+				   ----
+{configure,config.h}.in
+	- augment check for strtold with additional check to detect the
+	  horribly broken hp/ux 11.x implementation that returns `long_double';
+	  defines STRTOLD_BROKEN if so
+
+builtins/printf.def
+	- define floatmax_t as `double' if STRTOLD_BROKEN is defined
+
+				   10/5
+				   ----
+lib/readline/keymaps.c
+	- don't automatically bind uppercase keys to rl_do_lowercase_version
+	  in rl_make_bare_keymap
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- explicitly check for ANYOTHERKEY binding to rl_do_lowercase_version
+	  and dispatch to lowercase of key when a prefix is not matched
+
+				   10/12
+				   -----
+bashline.c
+	- set COMP_WORDBREAKS in enable_hostname_completion to the value
+	  of rl_completer_word_break_characters
+
+variables.c
+	- new special variable COMP_WORDBREAKS, controls the value of
+	  rl_completer_word_break_characters
+
+variables.h
+	- new extern declaration for sv_comp_wordbreaks()
+
+subst.c
+	- change split_at_delims to behave more like shell word splitting if
+	  the passed value for the delimiters is NULL, indicating that the
+	  function is to use $IFS to split
+
+{execute_cmd,jobs,test,findcmd,input,make_cmd,redir,shell}.c
+builtins/mkbuiltins.c,builtins/{fc,history,source,umask}.def
+lib/sh/netconn.c
+lib/termcap/termcap.c
+lib/readline/histfile.c
+	- make sure all inclusions of <sys/file.h> are protected by
+	  HAVE_SYS_FILE_H
+
+bashline.c
+	- don't turn off rl_filename_completion_desired in
+	  attempt_shell_completion if the partial pathname contains a slash.
+	  This still doesn't solve the problem of partial pathname completion
+	  starting with a directory in the current directory without a
+	  leading `./'.  There's no way to tell the difference between that
+	  and a file found in $PATH (which may contain `.') at the point that
+	  attempt_shell_completion acts
+
+				   10/18
+				   -----
+locale.c
+	- don't set lc_all to the default locale when LC_ALL is being unset
+	- new function, reset_locale_vars(), called to recompute the correct
+	  locale variable values when LC_ALL is unset
+	- changed set_lang to not set LC_ALL, which it never should have been
+	  doing in the first place, and to maintain a local variable `lang'
+	  corresponding to $LANG
+	- change get_locale_var to use the precedence posix.2 specifies:
+	  LC_ALL overrides individual variables; LANG, if set, is the default
+	- change set_locale_var to call get_locale_var to get the appropriate
+	  value for the variable being set or unset
+	- call get_locale_var instead of using passed value in set_locale_var
+	  to get the defaulting and precedence right
+
+lib/readline/nls.c
+	- new function, _rl_get_locale_var(), which does the same thing as
+	  locale.c:get_locale_var(), with the right precedence and defaulting,
+	  using sh_get_env_value to get the right bash variable values
+	- if HAVE_SETLOCALE is defined, _rl_init_eightbit first calls
+	  _rl_get_locale_var to get the right value for LC_CTYPE, and uses
+	  that in the call to setlocale.  If _rl_get_locale_var returns NULL,
+	  call setlocale() to get the current international environment, and,
+	  finally, if that returns null, call setlocale with a second argument
+	  of "" to force the implementation's `native' environment
+
+pcomplete.c
+	- change gen_wordlist_completions to dequote the text before comparing
+	  it against the expanded word list 
+	- changed gen_matches_from_itemlist to do the same thing
+
+bashline.c
+	- new global function, bash_dequote_word, calls bash_dequote_filename
+	  on the text passed.  Used by the programmable completion code
+
+lib/readline/histfile.c
+	- make sure that whenever read_history_range returns a non-zero value
+	  that it sets errno to some useful value
+
+				   10/19
+				   -----
+variables.c
+	- COMP_WORDBREAKS is now a dynamic variable, mirroring value of
+	  rl_completer_word_break_characters.  Makes sure that the variable
+	  always points to dynamic memory if it's not null or the readline
+	  default
+
+bashline.c
+	- change enable_hostname_completion to manage a dynamic value of
+	  rl_completer_word_break_characters, since assignments to
+	  COMP_WORDBREAKS can change its value unpredictably
+
+lib/readline/{complete.c,readline.h}
+	- rl_completer_word_break_characters no longer has `const' attribute
+
+bashline.c
+	- clean up necessary places due to rl_completer_word_break_characters
+	  no longer being `const'
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- document new COMP_WORDBREAKS variable
+
+				   10/21
+				   -----
+print_cmd.c
+	- fix indirection_level_string to handle the case where the decoded
+	  $PS4 is null without seg faulting
+
+				   10/22
+				   -----
+builtins/shift.def
+	- make sure that there is actually an argument when reporting a shift
+	  count that exceeds the number of positional paramters and
+	  shift_verbose is enabled
+
+lib/readline/rltty.c
+	- change SET_SPECIAL to call a new function, set_special_char, since
+	  it contains a block.  It's called infrequently, so the performance
+	  impact of making it a function should be negligible, and it helps
+	  debugging
+
+				   10/29
+				   -----
+bashline.c
+	- make sure the editor in VI_EDIT_COMMAND and EMACS_EDIT_COMMAND is
+	  quoted; it might contain spaces (e.g., `emacs -nw')
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- cache ac_cv_rl_version in RL_LIB_READLINE_VERSION macro
+
+configure.in
+	- change logic that sets RL_INCLUDEDIR so that it doesn't try to set
+	  a bogus include path if the argument to --with-installed-readline
+	  is `yes' -- helps with cross-compiling
+
+lib/readline/histexpand.c
+	- fix history_tokenize_word so that it handles <( and >( better
+
+				   10/30
+				   -----
+redir.c
+	- fix write_here_string so it handles the case where `herestr' expands
+	  to NULL without seg faulting
+
+				   10/31
+				   -----
+mailcheck.c
+	- reverse logic flip from bash-2.05 that handled systems that don't
+	  change the atime when the mailbox is accessed; make sure the file
+	  is bigger before we report new mail.  This is the case in the vast
+	  majority of cases.  Reported by jim@jtan.com
+
+				   11/5
+				   ----
+parse.y
+	- change action for `for x; { list; }' and corresponding `select'
+	  production to use \"$@\" instead of just $@, as it is with all the
+	  other actions
+
+				   11/9
+				   ----
+parse.y
+	- new flag for parse_matched_pair: P_DQUOTE, indicating that the
+	  pair of characters being matched is between double quotes
+	- parse_matched_pair now passes P_DQUOTE down to recursive calls:
+	  if the open char to be matched is a `"' or the passed-in flags
+	  include P_DQUOTE, set the local `rflags' variable to P_DQUOTE and
+	  pass `rflags' down to recursive calls
+	- if `rflags' includes P_DQUOTE, don't try to ansiexpand $'...' or
+	  locale expand $"..."; consistent with other quoting constructs
+
+				   11/11
+				   -----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- explicitly note that variables referenced in arithmetic expressions
+	  without using `$' evaluate to 0 if they are null or unset
+	- note that a null variable value evaluates to 0 when used in an
+	  arithmetic context, like when a variable with the `-i' attribute is
+	  assigned a null value
+	- document the ${!prefix@} expansion as equivalent to ${!prefix*}
+
+				   11/12
+				   -----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- note that the value of an arithmetic expression is as in C
+	- change the wording to note that `arithmetic evaluation' (not
+	  arithmetic expansion, which has a different meaning) is performed
+	  on the value assigned to a variable whose integer attribute is set
+
+				   11/13
+				   -----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- fix execute_disk_command so it calls exit() after printing the error
+	  message in a restricted shell context if the shell has already forked
+	  (nofork != 0 && there are no pipes)
+
+				   11/19
+				   -----
+builtins/type.def
+	- don't report on aliases unless expand_aliases is set and the parser
+	  is performing alias expansion; changed tests/type.tests and
+	  tests/type.right accordingly
+
+				   11/25
+				   -----
+general.c
+	- fix for full pathnames including drive letters on cygwin from
+	  Corinna (convert to posix-style paths, which the rest of the
+	  code handles much better)
+
+lib/readline/text.c
+	- fixes to overwrite mode from jimmy@is-vn.bg:
+		o in _rl_overwrite_char, do the overwrite mode self-insert
+		  as one group, even when overwriting more than 1 char
+		o in _rl_overwrite_char, do the insert before the delete so
+		  that an undo positions the cursor on the character restored,
+		  not to the right of it
+		o in _rl_overwrite_rubout, don't do rl_insert_char(' ') unless
+		  rl_point < rl_end.  Since overwrite-mode self-insert acts as
+		  in insert-mode when at eol, make rubout behave like
+		  insert-mode rubout
+
+				   11/30
+				   -----
+lib/readline/misc.c
+	- call rl_replace_line with `1' as second parameter if we're going to
+	  immediately overwrite the undo list
+
+lib/readline/search.c
+	- in make_history_line_current, use _rl_replace_text to make the line
+	  replacement an undoable operation.  Affects all non-incremental
+	  search functions.
+
+parse.y
+	- make behavior introduced on 11/9 dependent on extended_quote
+	  variable, controllable by extquote shopt option.  Default setting is
+	  on for backwards compatibility
+
+builtins/shopt.def
+	- new `extquote' option to control extended_quote variable
+
+				   12/3
+				   ----
+jobs.c
+	- change message printed when attempting to put a background job in
+	  the background with `bg' to include the job id and make the
+	  statement declarative
+
+				   12/10
+				   -----
+bashhist.h
+	- define explicit flag values for history_control
+
+variables.c
+	- change sv_history_control to use new flag values
+	- change sv_history_control to parse $HISTCONTROL as a colon-separated
+	  list of values for the history_control variable
+
+bashhist.c
+	- change check_history_control to use new flag values and restructure
+	  to remove case statement
+	- new function hc_erasedups(line); removes all entries matching LINE
+	  from the history list
+	- call hc_erasedups() from check_add_history after we've determined
+	  that we're saving the line
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- documented new options available for $HISTCONTROL and that it can
+	  be a colon-separated list of history control options
+
+				   12/11
+				   -----
+subst.c
+	- fix pat_subst() to not increment `e' (pointer to the end of the
+	  matched portion of the string) until after we're sure we're going
+	  around the loop again; fixes problem with empty replacements for
+	  a pattern that doesn't match (bug reported by Don Coleman
+	  <don@coleman.org>)
+
+				   12/17
+				   -----
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- fixes to multibyte redisplay from jir@yamato.ibm.com (Jiro SEKIBA):
+		o speed up calculation of first difference between old and new
+		  lines in the common case
+		o don't try to see if we're in the middle of a multbyte char
+		  in update_line (we'll see how this one works out)
+
+				   12/18
+				   -----
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- make it clear that the `command-list' function definition may be
+	  terminated by an ampersand before the closing brace
+
+				   12/28
+				   -----
+redir.c
+	- set `expanding_redir' flag when expanding words in a redirection
+
+subst.c
+	- new function, exp_jump_to_top_level(), to do any word expansion
+	  cleanup before a call to jump_to_top_level from within that file;
+	  sets expanding_redir back to 0 before jump_to_top_level
+
+variables.c
+	- in find_variable(), don't call find_variable_internal with a second
+	  parameter of 1 if expanding_redir is non-zero
+	- in find_variable_internal(), don't search the temporary env if
+	  subshell_environment includes SUBSHELL_FORK (indicating a simple
+	  command) and expanding_redir is non-zero
+
+parse.y
+	- increment line_number when we read a \<newline> pair
+
+array.c
+	- added array_unshift_element and array_shift_element (which just call
+	  array_shift and array_rshift, respectively), for bash debugger
+	  support
+
+				 1/4/2003
+				 --------
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- note in the section describing the execution environment passed to
+	  children that subshells inherit shell functions marked for export
+	- note in the section describing shell functions the possibility
+	  that exported functions may result in two entries in the environment
+	  with the same name
+
+parse.y
+	- when pushing an alias expansion onto the pushed_string list, append
+	  a space to the expanded definition to make the parser's lookahead
+	  work without using the `mustpop' hack in shell_getc
+
+				    1/8
+				    ---
+shell.c
+	- change calls to exit() with EX_USAGE as a parameter to use
+	  EX_BADUSAGE instead, since EX_USAGE is defined as 258 and is
+	  technically out of range
+
+				   1/14
+				   ----
+aclocal.m4
+	- check for the termcap functions in libc first:  if we don't have
+	  to link in another library, let's not do it
+	- change the test for mbstate_t to use AC_TRY_COMPILE instead of
+	  AC_TRY_RUN
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- document that bash turns line editing off if environment variable
+	  EMACS is set to `t' when it starts up
+
+doc/bash.1
+	- minor change to give the ftp url for the latest version of bash in
+	  the bug reports section
+
+lib/readline/histexpand.c
+	- in get_history_event, cast a couple of `const char *' variables to
+	  `char *' in function call parameter lists to avoid compiler warnings
+
+				   1/21
+				   ----
+builtins/cd.def
+	- change `cd -' so it prints the current working directory after a
+          successful chdir even when the shell is not interactive
+
+				   1/31
+				   ----
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo
+	- clarified exactly what is meant by the term `application-specific
+	  completion function', made its use consistent, and documented
+	  what variables are changed before such a function is called
+
+lib/readline/input.c
+	- new function, _rl_pushed_input_available(), returns non-zero if
+	  there are characters in the input queue managed by rl_get_char
+	  and _rl_unget_char
+
+lib/readline/rlprivate.h
+	- new extern declaration for _rl_pushed_input_available
+
+lib/readline/callback.c
+	- change rl_callback_read_char to check _rl_pushed_input_available
+	  and loop if there's something there, so characters don't languish
+	  until more keyboard input is read
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- new variable, last_command_exit_signal, non-zero if
+	  last_command_exit_value result from wait_for was result of a signal
+
+nojobs.c
+	- keep track of whether or not a given pid was killed by a signal with
+	  a new flag in the pid_list array
+	- new function int find_termsig_by_pid(pid_t pid) to get the
+	  terminating signal, if any, for a particular pid
+	- new function int get_termsig(WAIT status) returns the terminating
+	  signal corresponding to status
+	- set last_command_exit_signal in wait_for and the various wait_for_xx
+	  functions
+
+jobs.c
+	- new functions, process_exit_signal and job_exit_signal, return the
+	  signal that killed a given process or job, if a signal caused its
+	  death
+	- set last_command_exit_signal in wait_for by calling job_exit_signal
+	  or process_exit_signal appropriately
+
+subst.c
+	- don't resend SIGINT to ourselves unless last_command_exit_signal is
+	  SIGINT and last_command_exit_value == 128 + SIGINT.  This fixes the
+	  $(exit 130) bug reported by Paul Jarc
+
+expr.c
+	- new function, expr_bind_variable, calls bind_int_variable and
+	  then stupidly_hack_special_variables.  This fixes the
+	  `let OPTIND=1' bug
+
+bashline.c
+	- change history_and_alias_expand_line and shell_expand_line to call
+	  history_expand_line_internal so calls to pre_process_line are
+	  localized
+	- change history_expand_line_internal and cleanup_expansion_error to
+	  temporarily turn off hist_verify before calling pre_process_line
+	  to avoid the effects described by teirllm@dms.auburn.edu
+
+parse.y
+	- don't unconditionally turn off PST_ALEXPNEXT in push_string.  This
+	  fixes the multiple alias expansion bug reported by Paul Jarc.
+
+lib/readline/vi_mode.c
+	- change rl_vi_subst to push `l' instead of ` ' -- it should be
+	  equivalent, but this has been reported to fix a problem in multibyte
+	  locales
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- new state flag value RL_STATE_TTYCSAVED, indicates that save_tty_chars
+	  has been called.  Since it's only used and visible internally, it's
+	  undocumented
+
+lib/readline/rltty.h
+	- changed all of the members of _rl_tty_chars struct to `unsigned char'
+
+lib/readline/rltty.c
+	- set the RL_STATE_TTYCSAVED after save_tty_chars is called
+	- new function, rl_tty_unset_default_bindings(), resets bindings for
+	  everything rl_tty_set_default_bindings() messes with back to
+	  rl_insert, so rl_tty_set_default_bindings can be called again with
+	  possible changes
+	- new function that does the bulk of the work for
+	  rltty_set_default_bindings:  _rl_bind_tty_special_chars()
+	- change prepare_terminal_settings so that it can track changes to the
+	  terminal special chars made by stty(1):  unset the bindings with
+	  rl_tty_unset_default_bindings before calling save_tty_chars, and
+	  _rl_tty_set_default_bindings after, with the new values from
+	  get_tty_settings().  This implements a long-standing request, most
+	  recently made by Tim Waugh of Red Hat.
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- extern declaration for rl_tty_unset_default_bindings()
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- new function, reset_default_bindings, calls
+	  rl_tty_unset_default_bindings() to reset the terminal special chars
+	  back to rl_insert and then read the new ones
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texinfo
+	- documented rl_tty_unset_default_bindings()
+
+				    2/1

+[prayers and condolences to the families of the space shuttle crew members]
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- add checks for mbrtowc and mbrlen in BASH_CHECK_MULTIBYTE
+	- new check, BASH_FUNC_CTYPE_NONASCII, checks whether or not the ctype

+	- turn off multibyte chars if NO_MULTIBYTE_SUPPORT is defined
+
+configure.in
+	- new argument --enable-multibyte (enabled by default), allows

+builtins/evalfile.c
+	- pass SEVAL_RESETLINE from _evalfile() to parse_and_execute()

+
+shell.c
+	- initialize BASH_LINENO, BASH_SOURCE, FUNCNAME in open_shell_script

+make_cmd.h
+	- corresponding changes to extern declarations for those functions
+
+				   2/16
+				   ----
+{execute_cmd,shell,variables}.c
+	- follow each call to remember_args with a call to push_args or
+	  pop_args to manage the BASH_ARGV and BASH_ARGC arrays.  Only set
+	  when the shell is started to run shell script or runs a shell
+	  function.  Doesn't handle `set' or `shift' yet, nor `source'.
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- keep track of the level of subshells with a new variable, manipulated
+	  in execute_in_subshell
+	- set currently_executing_command in execute_command_internal(),
+	  even if we're running a trap
+	- better line number management when executing simple commands,

+
+variables.c
+	- new dynamic variable BASH_SUBSHELL, with new get_subshell and

+	- RETURN is a new special trap
+	- new function: set_return_trap(char *command) interface for the rest
+	  of the shell, like set_{debug,error}_trap
+	- new function: run_return_trap()
+	- command substitution and other child processes don't inherit the
+	  return trap
+
+trap.h
+	- new extern declaration for set_return_trap() and run_return_trap
+	- new defines for RETURN_TRAP; increment BASH_NSIG
+	- change extern declaration for run_debug_trap() since it now returns

+
+shell.c
+	- new invocation long option:  --debugger, turns on debugging and
+	  sets internal `debugging_mode' variable
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- new code to save return trap when executing a shell function, so
+	  shell functions don't inherit it
+	- run debug trap before binding the variable and running the action

+	  by shell functions
+
+flags.c
+	- new flags -E and -T, control error_trace_mode and

+
+print_cmd.c
+	- broke print_for_command, print_select_command, print_case_command
+	  into two functions each:  one to print the `header' and one for
+	  the body
+	- print_cond_command is no longer static
+	- print_arith_command now takes a WORD_LIST *, since it doesn't
+	  actually do anything with the ARITH_COM it's passed except print
+	  the enclosed WORD_LIST
+	- print_arith_command is no longer static
+
+externs.h
+	- extern declarations for print_{for,select,case}_command_head,
+	  print_cond_command, print_arith_command
+
+{.,builtins,lib/sh}/Makefile.in
+	- corrected dependencies on pathnames.h, since it's now created in

+
+				    3/5
+				    ---
+lib/glob/glob.c
+	- handle alloca() failing (it's supposed to return NULL)
+	- use malloc() (with its attendent bookkeeping) instead of alloca()
+	  in glob_filename()
+
+subst.c
+	- check whether shell_glob_filename returns NULL in
+	  glob_expand_word_list
+	- change parameter_brace_expand_rhs to handle cases like
+	  ${a[2]:=value} by properly creating the array element instead of a
+	  variable named `a[2]' (reported by <opengeometry@yahoo.ca>)
+
+variables.c
+	- change bind_int_variable to use valid_array_reference instead
+	  of looking for `[' 
+
+lib/readline/vi_mode.c
+	- check for `a' in _rl_vi_done_inserting so the text inserted by an
+	  `a' command can be reinserted with a `.'
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- when entering vi insertion mode in readline_internal_setup(), make
+	  sure that _rl_vi_last_key_before_insert is set to `i' so that undo
+	  groups and redo work better (reported by <opengeometry@yahoo.ca>)
+
+lib/glob/sm_loop.c
+	- handle ?(...) in a pattern immediately following a `*', instead of
+	  ignoring the `(' and treating the `?' as a single-char match, as
+	  long as FNM_EXTFLAG is set (reported by <anderson110@poptop.llnl.gov>)
+
+aclocal.m4
+	- new test for presence of struct timezone, BASH_STRUCT_TIMEZONE
+
+config.h.in
+	- add HAVE_STRUCT_TIMEZONE
+
+configure.in
+	- call BASH_STRUCT_TIMEZONE
+
+execute_cmd.c

+
+				   3/20
+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- new variable, the_printed_command_except_trap, saves the command
+	  being executed before a trap is executed, for the debugger
+
+trap.c
+	- if in debugging mode, let command substitutions and other child

+	  (which is really a bad name, given this semantic) or `errtrace'
+	  options, respectively, have been set
+
+shell.c
+	- local_pending_command renamed to command_execution_string; no longer
+	  static
+
+variables.c
+	- new dynamic variable, BASH_COMMAND, set to the command string
+	  currently executing, or the one that caused a trap to execute
+	  (mapped to the_printed_command_except_trap)
+	- new variable, BASH_EXECUTION_STRING, set to the argument to the
+	  -c invocation option, if the shell was started that way
+
+				   3/22
+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- changed execute_for_command, eval_arith_for_expr,
+	  execute_select_command, execute_arith_command, execute_cond_command,
+	  execute_simple_command to implement new DEBUG trap semantics
+	  for the debugger: if the DEBUG trap commands return a non-zero
+	  status and debugging_mode is non-zero, we skip the command to be
+	  executed
+
+trap.c
+	- change run_debug_trap for the debugger: if we're in the debugger
+	  and the DEBUG trap returns 2 while we're in a function or sourced
+	  script, we force a `return'
+
+shell.c
+	- new function, start_debugger(), that sources the debugger start file
+	  and turns the debugger on
+
+builtins/shopt.def
+	- new settable option, `extdebug', turns on debugging_mode, as if
+	  --debugger had been supplied at invocation (but does not source
+	  debugger startup file)
+
+trap.c
+	- make sure that run_exit_trap arranges for `returns' to come back
+	  there, too, so a `return' executed by an `exit' invoked within a
+	  shell function behaves correctly
+
+support/shobj-conf
+	- change darwin/MacOS X stanza based on advice from mac os x developers
+
+lib/sh/mailstat.c
+	- set the atime member of the synthesized stat struct to 0 if `cur/'
+	  is empty, rather than leaving it undefined
+
+				   3/24
+				   ----
+builtins/caller.def
+	- new builtin to provide a call stack for the debugger
+
+builtins/evalfile.c
+	- added a second `flags' argument to source_file()

+	  If included in flags arg, it means to not manipulate the BASH_ARGV
+	  and BASH_ARGC arrays
+
+builtins/common.h
+	- change prototype for source_file()
+
+builtins/source.def
+	- add flag value to call to source_file():  set to 1 if we replaced

+	  source builtin
+	- add call to pop_args in maybe_pop_dollar_vars
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- run the debug trap in execute_function so the debugger can stop
+	  before the first command in a function body is executed
+	- modify subshell_level before executing a builtin or function in a
+	  subshell
+	- print `for', `select', `case' command heads when set -x is enabled
+
+print_cmd.c
+	- `xtrace_print_word_list' now takes an additional flags argument,
+	  which, if non-zero, says to print indirection_level_string()
+	- new functions to print for, select, and case command heads when
+	  set -x is enabled
+	- add spaces after `((' and before `))' in xtrace_print_arith_command
+
+externs.h
+	- changed extern declaration for xtrace_print_word_list

+subst.c
+	- modify subshell_level when executing a command substitution
+
+				   3/25
+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- use `line_number' in executing_line_number instead of looking into
+	  the current command if it's a simple command; rearrange code to
+	  make this simpler to compile in and out
+	- need to save and restore value of currently_executing_command around
+	  calls to debug trap and return trap in execute_function
+
+make_cmd.c
+	- make sure make_arith_for_command() disposes the WORD_LIST * it is
+	  passed, since nothing else does and it's not used directly
+
+				   3/28
+				   ----
+Makefile.in	
+	- fixed dependencies for `error.o' on shell.h and version.h -- makes
+	  parallel makes (gmake -j 4) work correctly

+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- documented all new features added to support the debugger
+
+				    4/1

+
+parse.y

+
+builtins/read.def

+	  bug reported by holzhey@ppprs1.phy.tu-dresden.de
+
+				    4/3
+				    ---
+execute_cmd.c
+	- in execute_null_command, if redirections are supplied, make sure
+	  things like 3</etc/passwd are undone immediately, since they're
+	  being done in the current shell
+	- functions now inherit the RETURN trap only if function tracing is
+	  on for that function or globally
+
+lib/readline/misc.c
+	- in rl_replace_from_history, don't force rl_replace_line to clear
+	  the undo_list, since it might point directly at an undo list
+	  from a history entry (to which we have no handle)
+
+				    4/4
+				    ---
+trap.c
+	- initialize RETURN_TRAP stuff appropriately in initialize_traps()
+	- let command substitutions inherit the RETURN trap if we're in

+
+redir.c
+	- do_redirections and do_redirection_internal now take a single
+	  flags argument instead of multiple boolean flags
+
+redir.h
+	- new #defines for flags argument to do_redirection{s,_internal}
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- change all calls to do_redirection to use new flag values
+
+parse.y
+	- new function, free_pushed_string_input(), an external interface to

+	- new define SHOULD_PROMPT to say when it's OK to call prompt_again
+	  (if the shell is currently interactive and is reading input from
+	  the terminal or readline)
+	- make sure shell_getc and read_secondary_line only call prompt_again
+	  if SHOULD_PROMPT evaluates to true
+	- prompt_again shouldn't do anything if the shell is currently in the
+	  middle of expanding a multiline alias, since we won't be printing a
+	  prompt anyway
+
+externs.h
+	- new extern declaration for free_pushed_string_input()
+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- command_substitute and process_substitute now call
+	  free_pushed_string_input because they shouldn't deal with any
+	  partial alias expansion the parent shell may have started
+
+				    4/5
+				    ---
+braces.c
+	- added {x..y} brace expansion, shorthand for {x,x+1,x+2,...,y}:
+	  x, y can be integers or single characters; the sequence can be

+	  something like {a..A} can lead to non-letters.
+
+				    4/7
+				    ---
+subst.c
+	- change extract_delimited_string and extract_dollar_brace_string to
+	  return NULL on an expansion error when no_longjmp_on_fatal_error
+	  is set, so the calling functions don't assume that the expansion
+	  was successful (primarily the prompt expansion and completion code)

+
+doc/bash.1
+	- add mention of characters that inhibit history expansion when found
+	  immediately following an unquoted `!'
+
+bashline.c
+	- convert the code conditionally compiled in by the NO_FORCE_FIGNORE
+	  #define to something runtime-tunable with the `force_fignore'

+
+builtins/shopt.def
+	- new tunable `shopt' option: `force_fignore', controls force_fignore

+	  to use the `standard' gnu format
+
+pcomplete.h
+	- new COPT_BASHDEFAULT and COPT_PLUSDIRS defines

+pcomplete.c
+	- in programmable_completions, copy the compspec before using it to

+	  command to be changed by the compspec itself without causing a
+	  core dump because the shell frees freed memory (reported by
+	  marcus.harnish@gmx.net)
+
+parse.y
+	- in shell_getc, don't call notify_and_cleanup in an interactive shell
+	  unless the shell is currently reading from the terminal and would
+	  print a prompt.  This fixes programmable completions printing job
+	  notifications (reported by r.d.green@lancaster.ac.uk)
+	- use SHOULD_PROMPT macro consistently
+
+shell.c
+	- use get_string_value instead of getenv when looking up $TERM and

+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- fixed a slight inconsistency in the different sections describing
+	  the `promptvars' option
+
+doc/Makefile.in
+	- new rule to create `bash.info' from `bashref.info' by running sed

+
+bashhist.c

+include/stdc.h,lib/readline/rlstdc.h
+	- don't check the __STRICT_ANSI__ define when deciding whether or not

+
+trap.[ch]
+	- decode_signal and signal_object_p take an additional flags arg to
+	  satisfy POSIX.2 signal name translation requirements
+	- change decode_signal to honor the new DSIG_NOCASE (match case-
+	  insensitively) and DSIG_SIGPREFIX (allow signal specifications
+	  with the `SIG' prefix) flags
+
+builtins/{common.c,{trap,kill}.def}
+	- change calls to decode_signal to add the new argument with

+	  case-insensitively and with the SIG prefix
+
+builtins/trap.def

+shell.h
+	- new MATCH_STARSUB define, to tell the callers of the various pattern

+subst.c
+	- if get_var_and_type encounters an array variable subscripted by `*'

+	- callers of get_var_and_type check for VT_STARSUB in the returned type
+	  this will fix problems with ${*...} not being separated with the

+	- in parameter_brace_patsub, set MATCH_STARSUB if VT_STARSUB is set by
+	  get_var_and_type
+	- change pos_params_pat_subst to call string_list_dollar_star if
+	  the match flags include MATCH_STARSUB
+	- change parameter_brace_substring to call array_subrange with an
+	  additional argument indicating the character indexing the array
+
+array.c
+	- change array_patsub to join the modified array elements with the
+	  first character of $IFS if MATCH_STARSUB is set in the match flags
+	  passed in
+	- array_subrange now takes an additional argument indicating the
+	  index type -- used to separate with first char of $IFS if the

+	  set the terminal's process group to the pipeline's process group
+	  when PGRP_PIPE is defined, just like when it's undefined.  This is
+	  reported to fix some tricky synchronization problems on Red Hat
+	  Enterprise Linux 3.  Fix from Ernie Petrides <petrides@redhat.com>.
+
+				   9/30
+				   ----
+builtins/printf.def
+	- tescape no longer needs a `trans_squote' argument, since it's the
+	  same as the `sawc' argument.  The `sawc' argument now means to do
+	  the %b argument processing if non-null
+	- fix processing of octal constants for %b arguments (\0 followed by
+	  up to three octal digits) and other escape sequences (\ followed by
+	  up to three octal digits)
+	- hex constants `\xHHH' are now allowed to contain any positive
+	  number of digits; previously they were restricted to two [removed]
+	- allow two new escape sequences: \" and \?, for compatibility with
+	  ksh93 and ANSI C
+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- documented processing that printf performs for arguments to %b
+	  escape sequences
+
+lib/sh/strtrans.c
+	- add \" and \? to escape sequences recognized by `echo -e'
+

+version.c
+	- use snprintf instead of sprintf if configure tells us we have it
+
+				   10/3
+				   ----
+subst.c
+	- in list_remove_pattern, take into account the fact that one of the
+	  list elements may be NULL, and don't free the result of
+	  remove_pattern() without checking
+	- in remove_pattern, return savestring(param) if *param == '\0',
+	  since callers expect to free() non-null return values
+
+				   10/4
+				   ----
+subst.c
+	- change verify_substring_values to make it clearer that the first
+	  offset deals with array indices and the second deals with numbers
+	  of elements, when doing array subranges with ${a[@]:e1:e2}
+
+array.c
+	- change array_subrange to make it explicit that the second offset
+	  argument is a count of the desired number of elements, not an
+	  ending index.  This deals with sparse arrays correctly.

+subst.c
+	- in parameter_brace_expand, check that the last characters are `]}'
+	  before checking for ${!array[@]}
+
+execute_cmd.c,builtins/source.def
+	- push and pop the args (BASH_ARGV and BASH_ARGC) when executing a
+	  shell function or sourcing a script only when in debugging mode
+
+				   10/11
+				   -----
+arrayfunc.c
+	- make sure array_variable_name returns values for the SUBP and LENP
+	  arguments if they're non-null, since callers expect to use them
+	  even if the array subscript is bad
+
+error.c
+	- call exit_shell instead of sh_exit from parser_error and
+	  report_error so the right things happen (running exit trap, doing
+	  the right interactive cleanup, etc.)
+
+lib/readline/complete.c
+	- new variable, rl_completion_quote_character, set to any quote char
+	  readline thinks it finds before any application completion
+	  function is called
+	- new variable, rl_completion_suppress_quote, settable by an
+	  application-specific completion function.  If set to non-zero, the
+	  completion code does not append a closing quote in append_to_match
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- extern declarations for rl_completion_quote_character and
+	  rl_completion_suppress_quote
+
+bashline.c
+	- set rl_completion_suppress_quote in command_subst_completion_function
+	  because that would be inserted before any closing "`" or ")", which
+	  is somewhat disconcerting
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texi
+	- documented rl_completion_suppress_quote and
+	  rl_completion_quote_character
+
+				   10/13
+				   -----
+bashhist.c
+	- use sv_histchars instead of setting history_comment_char directly in

+	  ~/.bashrc are honored
+
+				   10/21
+				   -----
+trap.c
+	- make sure run_exit_trap sets `running_trap' appropriately
+	- new variable, trap_saved_exit_value, set to last_command_exit_value
+	  before running any trap commands; available to the rest of the
+	  shell; use trap_saved_exit_value to replace some function-local
+	  variables
+
+builtins/exit.def
+	- if the shell is running the exit trap, and no argument is given
+	  to `exit', use trap_saved_exit_value as the exit status instead
+	  of the last command exit value (which could be the previous command
+	  run in the exit trap), as required by POSIX.2

+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- add `alias' to the list of documented `assignment statement' builtins
+
+				   11/1
+				   ----
+doc/bash.1
+	- remove the `.' from the sample $PATH value
+
+parse.y
+	- make sure parse_compound_assignment prompts with $PS2 if it reads
+	  a newline while parsing the compound assignment statement. Bug
+	  reported by Stephane Chazelas
+	- parse_string_to_word_list now takes a new second argument: `int flags'
+	- new parser state flag: PST_COMPASSIGN; indicates that the shell is
+	  parsing a compound assignment statement
+	- parse_string_to_word_list turns on PST_COMPASSIGN if `flags' arg
+	  has low bit set
+	- turn PST_COMPASSIGN on and off in parse_compound_assignment
+
+externs.h
+	- change prototype declaration for parse_string_to_word_list
+
+arrayfunc.c
+	- change call to parse_string_to_word_list to add new flags arg
+
+general.c
+	- assignment() takes a new `flags' second argument
+	- if `flags' is non-zero, accept `[' as a legal assignment statement
+	  starter character (for parsing compound array assignments)
+
+general.h
+	- add new argument to prototype declaration for assignment()
+
+parse.y,{subst,variables}.c, builtins/{setattr,declare}.def
+	- change calls to assignment() (parse.y calls with flags == 1 when
+	  parser_state inlcudes PST_COMPASSIGN)
+
+arrayfunc.c
+	- in assign_array_var_from_string(), don't treat an expanded word
+	  of the form [ind]=value specially unless the W_ASSIGNMENT flag is
+	  set.  This means that words that are the result of expansions but
+	  happen to have the same format as compound assignment statement
+	  words will not be treated as such.  For instance
+
+		v='[12]=foobar'
+		a=( $v )
+
+	  will result in a[0]='[12]=foobar' instead of a[12]=foobar.  This
+	  is closer to how `regular' assignment statements are treated and
+	  compatible with ksh93.  Bug reported by Stephane Chazelas
+
+shell.c
+	- new --protected argument, disables command substitution when used
+	  with --wordexp (like --wordexp, it remains undocumented)
+	- change run_wordexp to turn on the W_NOCOMSUB flag in each word
+	  to be expanded if protected_mode is set
+
+				   11/7
+				   ----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- clarified the language concerning inherited signal dispositions and

+
+support/shobj-conf
+	- slight changes to the darwin (Mac OS X) stanza for MacOS X 10.3
+	  (for the readline shared library builds, which shares this script)
+
+lib/readline/histexpand.c
+	- change to make `^' behave as equivalent to word one, as csh does,
+	  and as the documentation states
+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- in update_line, make sure to use col_lendiff in all calculations
+	  where the cursor position is concerned (like when calculating
+	  the value of _rl_last_c_pos).  Fixes bug reported by Andreas
+	  Schwab
+
+				   11/12
+				   -----
+trap.c
+	- make _run_trap_internal catch `return' builtin longjmps and clean
+	  up before longjmping on to where the return was intended to go
+	  (fixes bug with not turning off SIG_INPROGRESS flag when `return'
+	  executed in trap command)
+
+				   11/18
+				   -----
+builtins/cd.def
+	- in posix mode, set errno to ENOTDIR if canonicalization fails,
+	  unless the canonicalization functions leave it set to ENOENT
+
+				   11/25
+				   -----
+make_cmd.c
+	- in make_simple_command, don't blindly dereference element.redirect
+
+parse.y
+	- the list_terminator production now has an `int' value so it can be
+	  used in other grammar productions
+	- add a rule that makes `time' on a line by itself time a null
+	  command (this is iffy)
+
+				   11/28
+				   -----
+subst.c
+	- change the pattern substitution code (${var//pat/rep}) to use the
+	  same pattern expansion function (getpattern()) as the pattern
+	  removal expansions.  This has the effect of no longer performing
+	  quote removal on the pattern before trying to match it.  This
+	  fixes an incompatibility with ksh93 reported on comp.unix.shell
+
+nojobs.c
+	- add replacement function for siginterrupt on the off chance that a
+	  system has posix signals but lacks siginterrrupt
+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- fix from Tim Waugh at Red Hat to speed up inserting characters into
+	  long lines in a UTF-8 environment by optimizing the calculation of
+	  the first difference between old and new lines by checking to see
+	  whether the old line is a subset of the new
+
+				   11/29
+				   -----
+lib/malloc/stats.c
+	- break code that opens file (and interprets %p) into separate function
+	  _imalloc_fopen(char *s, char *fn, char *def, char *defbuf, size_t defsiz)
+	  for use by rest of library
+	- default stats file is now `stats.PID'
+
+lib/malloc/trace.c
+	- new function, malloc_set_tracefn (char *s, char *fn), sets tracing
+	  to the file named by FN (with %p interpolated as the pid), using
+	  some default if FN is NULL
+
+lib/malloc/shmalloc.h
+	- new extern declaration for malloc_set_tracefn
+
+				   12/4
+				   ----
+execute_cmd.c
+	- combined several common strings from do_piping() into one
+	  dup_error() function
+
+builtins/common.[ch]
+	- new function, `sh_notbuiltin(s)' prints error message about s not
+	  being a shell builtin
+
+builtins/{builtin,enable}.def
+	- call sh_notbuiltin instead of using literal string
+
+{arrayfunc,expr,error}.c
+	- use one string variable for `bad array subscript' error message; use
+	  in calls to various error reporting functions
+
+Makefile.in
+	- add variables for localedir and the PACKAGE_* variables, auto-set
+	  by configure
+
+configure.in
+	- un-cache values for gettext, textdomain, and bindtextdomain if they're
+	  not in libc but in libintl so the right variables get set
+
+bashintl.h
+	- add necessary defines for marking strings to be translated using
+	  gettext
+
+locale.c
+	- set textdomain and directory in set_default_locale
+	- don't call textdomain with the value of $TEXTDOMAIN, since we don't
+	  want to override the default domain ("bash")
+	- don't call bindtextdomain unless default_domain already has a value
+	- when translating $"..." strings, use dgettext with the script's

+lib/readline/vi_mode.c

+
+lib/readline/vi_mode

+
+arrayfunc.c
+	- break code that actually constructs the new value and assigns it

+
+				   11/7

+builtins/declare.def
+	- added support for `declare [flags] var+=value'.  `Flags' are applied

+				   11/24
+				   -----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}

+execute_cmd.c
+	- fix execute_function so a function calling `return' will run the

+
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}
+	- fix description of RETURN trap in various places to indicate that it's

+	  or has been enabled for that function
+	- fix documentation to indicate that the DEBUG and RETURN traps are
+	  inherited under the same conditions

+subst.c
+	- fixed a typo in string_extract_verbatim in first call to MBLEN
+	  (used `slen - 1' instead of `slen - i')
+
+				   12/17
+				   -----
+subst.c
+	- avoid some calls to strlen if the value is only being used for
+	  ADVANCE_CHAR and MB_CUR_MAX == 1 (since ADVANCE_CHAR doesn't need
+	  it unless multibyte characters are possible)
+	- change string_extract_verbatim so it takes the length of the string
+	  as a parameter, so we don't have to recompute the length of the same
+	  string over and over again when doing word splitting (that kills if
+	  it's a long string)
+
+				   12/18
+				   -----
+subst.c
+	- in string_list_dollar_star, make sure to null-terminate the

+
+				   12/22
+				   -----
+doc/{bash.1,bashref.texi}

+	  escaping ! are not removed
+
+				   12/28
+				   -----
+shell.c
+	- set gnu_error_format to 1 if running under emacs.  This should allow
+	  the emacs `next-error' stuff to work, at least for interactive shells
+
+parse.y
+	- change yy_stream_get to set interrupt_immediately before calling
+	  getc_with_restart when the shell is interactive.  This avoids the
+	  synchronization problem caused by the call to QUIT in read_a_line,
+	  which results in the first character after a SIGINT/^C to be
+	  dropped
+
+				   12/30
+				   -----
+builtins/mkbuiltins.c
+	- changes to write long documentation to arrays as a single string by
+	  default, rather than an array of strings -- enabled by default
+	- new option, -S, to restore old behavior of writing multiple strings
+	  for long documentation
+	- changes to avoid filenames written when the separate-filenames option
+	  (-H) has been supplied being run through gettext
+
+configure.in
+	- new cofiguration option, --enable-single-help-strings (on by default),
+	  causes help text to be stored as a single string (or smaller set than
+	  one string per line)
+
+builtins/Makefile.in
+	- pass `-S' to mkbuiltins if single-help-strings is turned off
+
+doc/bashref.texi
+	- documented new `single-help-strings' configure option
+
+				 1/3/2005
+				 --------
+jobs.c
+	- make wait_for return a non-zero status if the job or processed
+	  waited for is suspended.  Returns 128 + stop signal.  This fixes

+	  `two' after the sleep is suspended
+
+				    1/5

+print_cmd.c

+	  character of $PS4 to indicate the indirection level, rather than
+	  the first byte
+
+				    1/8
+				    ---
+variables.c
+	- new special variable hook function for COMP_WORDBREAKS; sets
+	  rl_completer_word_break_characters back to NULL when the variable
+	  is unset
+	- change bind_variable_value to understand dynamic variables with
+	  assign_function set, and handle them correctly.  If the variable is
+	  being appended to, use make_variable_value to create the new
+	  value
+	- change bind_variable_internal to understand dynamic variables with
+	  assign_function set, and handle them the same way
+	- RANDOM and LINENO now get the integer attribute, so appending works
+	  as expected
+	- ditto for HISTCMD, MAILCHECK, OPTIND
+
+lib/readline/display.c
+	- change _rl_make_prompt_for_search to set prompt_physical_chars
+	  appropriately
+	- rl_save_prompt and rl_restore_prompt save and restore
+	  prompt_prefix_length
+	- change redraw_prompt to use rl_save_prompt and rl_restore_prompt
+	- change rl_restore_prompt to set the `save' variables back to
+	  NULL/0 so code can check whether or not the prompt has been saved
+	- change rl_message and rl_clear_message to save and restore the
+	  prompt if the caller has not already done it (using a simple
+	  semaphore-like variable)
+	- change rl_message to call expand_prompt, so that local_prompt and
+	  local_prompt prefix are set before calling the redisplay functions,
+	  in case the prompt is longer than a screenwidth (fixes bug
+	  reported to debian by epl@unimelb.edu.au)
+
+lib/readline/doc/rltech.texi
+	- make sure to note that rl_save_prompt should be called before
+	  rl_message, and rl_restore_prompt before rl_clear_message
+
+pcomplete.c
+	- make sure to save and restore the parser state around the call to
+	  execute_shell_function in gen_shell_function_matches.  Fixes bug
+	  reported by a050106.1.keeLae3x@captaincrumb.com (cute)
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- fix _rl_dispatch_subseq in the case where we're recursing back up
+	  the chain (r == -2) and we encounter a key shadowed by a keymap,
+	  but originally bound to self-insert.  Calling rl_dispatch with
+	  ANYOTHERKEY as the first argument will call rl_insert, but with
+	  ANYOTHERKEY (256) as the char to insert.  Use the shadow keymap
+	  and set things up to dispatch to rl_insert with the shadowed key

+subst.c
+	- param_expand now returns a WORD_DESC * -- changed callers to

+	  callers to understand
+	- in expand_word_internal, only call remove_quoted_nulls after a word

+	- changes to pass W_HASQUOTEDNULL flag out of expand_word_internal;
+	  changed callers to call remove_quoted_nulls only if return value has
+	  W_HASQUOTEDNULL set.  This is a mostly-complete fix for the
+	  long-standing CTLNUL confusion between a quoted null expansion and
+	  the expansion of a variable with a literal '\177' in its value
+	- change string_list_dollar_at to compute the separator character the
+	  same way as string_list_dollar_star:  using the already-computed
+	  values generated in setifs()
+	- when expanding unquoted $*, if $IFS is empty, check whether or not
+	  we're eventually going to split the results (e.g., on the rhs of an
+	  assignment statement) and concatenate the positional parameters as
+	  if the expansion were within double quotes if we're not going to

+
+variables.c
+	- change assign_random and get_random_value so that the random number

+configure.in
+	- set BUILD_DIR to contain backslashes to escape any spaces in the
+	  directory name -- this is what make will accept in targets and

+	- set SIZE to the appropriate value if some cross-compiling tool

+
+Makefile.in
+	- use $(SIZE) instead of size; set SIZE from configure

+jobs.[ch]

+	- change various functions to keep counters and stats in struct jobstats
+
+pcomplete.c, builtins/common.c, builtins/{exit,fg_bg,jobs,kill,wait}.def
+	- change global variables (e.g., job_slots) to struct members

+	- use INVALID_JOB define where appropriate
+	- use get_job_by_jid and J_JOBSTATE where appropriate
+
+trap.c

+	- change compact_jobs_list to just call reap_dead_jobs and then
+	  realloc_jobs_list, simplifying it considerably
+	- discard_pipeline now returns `int':  the number of processes freed
+	- slightly changed the logic deciding whether or not to call

+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- restore use of last_pid as sentinel value; use NO_PID as sentinel
+	  only if RECYCLES_PIDS is defined
+
+jobs.c
+	- change find_job to return a pointer to the PROCESS the desired pid
+	  belongs to, analogous to find_pipeline returning pointer to JOB
+	- change find_job callers to add extra argument
+	- change running_only arguments to find_pipeline and find_job to
+	  alive_only, since we don't want recycled pids returned here and it
+	  better describes the result
+	- new function find_process, calls find_pipeline and searches the
+	  returned pipeline for the PROCESS * describing the desired pid
+	- in make_child, if fork() returns the same pid as the value of
+	  last_asynchronous_pid when RECYCLES_PIDS is defined, avoid pid
+	  aliasing by resetting last_asynchronous_pid to 1
+	- use PRUNNING instead of child->running, since we, for the most
+	  part, don't want to consider recycled pids (e.g., in make_child())
+	- call find_process instead of find_pipeline in waitchld()
+	- use PEXITED(p) instead of testing p->running == PS_DONE
+	- in make_child, call bgp_delete to remove a just-created pid from the
+	  last of saved pid statuses
+	- in add_process, check whether or not pid being added is already in
+	  the_pipeline or the jobs list (using find_process) and mark it as

+subst.c

+	  IFS character that is not space, tab, or newline *and any adjacent
+	  IFS white space* as a single delimiter, as SUSv3/XPG6 says
+
+builtins/read.def
+	- check whether or not the number of fields is exactly the same as

+	  line (minus any trailing IFS white space) to the last variable.
+	  This parses a field and checks whether or not it consumes all of
+	  the input (including any trailing field delimiters), falling back
+	  to the previous behavior if it does not.  This is what POSIX.2
+	  specifies, I believe (and the consensus of the austin-group list).
+	  This requires a few tests in read.tests to be changed: backslashes
+	  escaping IFS whitespace characters at the end of input cause the
+	  whitespace characters to be preserved in the value assigned to the
+	  variable, and the trailing non-whitespace field delimiter issue

+	- convert PF macro to use asprintf into a local buffer
+	  Preparation for printf -v var
+	- add code to add the text printed to a `variable buffer' if -v option

+	- fix format parsing code to deal with a negative inline precision,
+	  e.g., "%4.-4f" by treating it as if the `'. and any digit string in

+
+lib/readline/callback.c
+	- in rl_callback_read_char(), if RL_STATE_ISEARCH is set, call

+
+				 5/13-5/15
+				 ---------
+lib/readline/callback.c
+	- support for readline functions to `register' a function that will
+	  be called when more input is available, with a generic data
+	  structure to encapsulate the arguments and parameters.  Primarily
+	  intended for functions that read a single additional character,
+	  like quoted-insert
+	- support for callback code reading numeric arguments in a loop,
+	  using readline state and an auxiliary variable
+	- support for callback code performing non-incremental searches using
+	  the same search context struct as the isearch code
+
+lib/readline/{callback,display}.c
+	- if a callback function sets `_rl_redisplay_wanted', the redisplay
+	  function will be called as soon as it returns
+
+lib/readline/input.c
+	- changes to _rl_read_mbchar to handle reading the null multibyte
+	  character and translating it into '\0'
+
+lib/readline/misc.c
+	- break rl_digit_loop() into component functions that can be called
+	  individually from the callback code more easily
+	- share some of the functions with rl_digit_loop1() in vi_mode.c
+
+lib/readline/readline.h
+	- change the version #defines to reflect readline 5.1
+
+lib/readline/search.c
+	- break code into smaller functions that can be composed to work with

+
+lib/readline/text.c
+	- in rl_quoted_insert(), don't mess around with the tty signals if
+	  running in `callback mode'

+lib/readline/rlprivate.h
+	- new struct defining a context for multiple-key key sequences (the

+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- change structure of _rl_dispatch_subseq to allow for callback code
+	  to use it - rudimentary support for supporting the existing

+lib/readline/callback.c
+	- use _rl_dispatch_callback and a chain of _rl_keyseq_contexts to
+	  simulate the recursion used to decode multicharacter key sequences
+	  (even things like ESC- as meta-prefix)
+	- call setjmp in rl_callback_read_char to give things like rl_abort
+	  a place to jump, since the saved location in readline() will not
+	  be valid
+	- keep calling _rl_dispatch_callback from rl_callback_read_char while
+	  we are still decoding a multi-key key sequence
+	- keep calling readline_internal_char from rl_callback_read_char while
+	  we are reading characters from a macro
+
+lib/readline/macro.c
+	- use a slightly different strategy upon encountering the end of a macro
+	  when using the callback interface:  when the last character of a
+	  macro is read, and we are reading a command, pop the macro off the	
+	  stack immediately so the loop in rl_callback_read_char terminates
+	  when it should
+
+lib/readline/readline.c
+	- if longjmp() is called and we end up at the saved location while
+	  using the callback interface, just return -- don't go back into a
+	  blocking read
+	- new function to dispose a chain of rl_keyseq_cxts
+	- only read new input in _rl_dispatch_callback if the KSEQ_DISPATCHED
+	  flag is not set in the current keyseq context -- if it is, we are
+	  traversing the chain back up and should use what we already saved
+	- use -3 as a magic value from _rl_dispatch_subseq to indicate that
+	  we're allocating a new context and moving downward in the chain
+	  (a special return value for the benefit of _rl_dispatch_callback)

+
+execute_cmd.c
+	- fix execute_builtin so the `unset' builtin also operates on the

+
+bashhist.h
+	- new extern declaration for history -s
+
+builtins/history.def
+	- don't remove last history entry in push_history if it was added by
+	  a call to push_history -- use hist_last_line_pushed as a sentinel
+	  and set it after adding history entry.  This allows multiple

+builtins/evalstring.c

+	  mess up the shell's parser state
+
+bashline.c
+	- change command_subst_completion_function to suppress appending

+builtins/ulimit.def

+	- add new options to short help synopsis
+
+variables.c
+	- use get_variable_value instead of direct reference to value_cell
+	  in make_variable_value when appending to the current value, so
+	  references to array variables without subscripts will be equivalent
+	  to element 0
+
+lib/readline/text.c

+	  characters where appropriate
+
+				    8/5

+
+general.h
+	- include `chartypes.h' for definition of ISALPHA

+
+general.h

+	  support for FS_READABLE (affects ./source and searching $PATH for
+	  scripts whose names are supplied as arguments on the command line)
+	- change find_path_file to look for readable files -- source requires
+	  it
+	- change find_in_path_element to do the right thing when FS_READABLE
+	  is supplied as a flag
+
+doc/bashref.texi

+
+jobs.c
+	- in kill_pid, if asked to killpg a process or pgrp whose pgrp is
+	  recorded as the same as the shell's, just call killpg and let the
+	  chips fall where they may -- there may be other processes in that
+	  pgrp that are not children of the shell, so killing each process
+	  in the pipeline will not do a complete job, and killpg'ing each
+	  such process will send too many signals in the majority of cases

+builtins/cd.def
+	- in posix mode, pwd needs to check that the value it prints and `.'

+
+builtins/read.def

+
+jobs.c
+	- in posix mode, don't have start_job print out and indication of
+	  whether the job started by `bg' is the current or previous job
+	- change start_job to return success if a job to be resumed in the
+	  background is already running.  This means that bg won't fail when
+	  asked to bg a background job, as SUSv3/XPG6 requires
+	- new function, init_job_stats, to zero out the global jobstats struct
+
+{jobs,nojobs}.c

+jobs.h

+builtins/fc.def
+	- use free_history_entry in fc_replhist instead of freeing struct

+	- if editing (-l not specified), make sure the fc command that caused
+	  the editing is removed from the history list, as POSIX specifies
+
+builtins/kill.def
+	- just call kill_pid with any pid argument and let it handle pids < -1
+	  This is the only way to let kill_pid know whether a negative pid or

+
+builtins/fg_bg.def

+bashline.c

+
+lib/readline/search.c
+	- if in vi_mode, call rl_free_undo_list in make_history_line_current
+	  to dispose of undo list accumulated while reading the search string
+	  (if this isn't done, since vi mode leaves the current history
+	  position at the entry which matched the search, the call to
+	  rl_revert_line in rl_internal_teardown will mangle the matched
+	  history entry using a bogus rl_undo_list)
+	- call rl_free_undo_list after reading a non-incremental search string
+	  into rl_line_buffer -- that undo list should be discarded
+
+lib/readline/rlprivate.h

+lib/readline/vi_mode.c
+	- when entering vi_command mode for the first time, free any existing

+
+It would be nice to have a general completion feature like this.
+
+Until that happens, maybe you will find the following patch useful.
+It makes MH folder name completion work with bash.  The diffs are
+relative to version 1.14.2.
+
+I realize that changes to readline.c and and complete.c are not good
+since they add some MH-specific stuff to the readline code and not to
+bash, but when I first wrote this, I had no idea what else to do.
+
+Chet, would you consider adding this if it were cleaned up a bit?
+Made optional with cpp conditionals?
+
+This feature has been very useful to me for the last several years
+(since about 1.05 or 1.06, I think).
