3 * posixstat.h (S_IRGRP, S_IWGRP, S_IXGRP, S_IROTH, S_IWOTH)
4 (S_IXOTH, S_IRWXG, S_IRWXO): Define if undefined, even if S_IRWXU
5 is defined, because non-Posix systems may defined only the user
6 bits.

303
304 Makefile.in
305 - broke the header file install and uninstall into two new targets:

307 - install and uninstall depend on install-headers and uninstall-headers
308 respectively
309 - changed install-shared and uninstall-shared targets to depend on
310 install-headers and uninstall-headers, respectively, so users may
311 choose to install only the shared libraries. I'm not sure about
312 the uninstall one yet -- maybe it should check whether or not
313 the static libraries are installed and not remove the header files
314 if they are
315
316 9/3
317 ---

382 ---
383 examples/rlfe.c
384 - add -l option to log input and output (-a option appends to logfile)
385 - add -n option to set readline application name
386 - add -v, -h options for version and help information
387 - change a few things because getopt() is now used to parse arguments

419 the minor version number
420
421 11/13
422 -----
423 examples/rlfe.c
424 - rlfe can perform filename completion for relative pathnames in the
425 inferior process's context if the OS supports /proc/PID/cwd (linux
426 does it OK, Solaris is slightly warped, none of the BSDs have it)
