Please use the `--help' option for + correct information about command-line arguments. I'll work on updating + it tonight. + +* `mkid' and `idx' use a file-tree walker. Give them one or more directory + names on the command-line, and they'll recursively descend looking for + source files. lib/language.map (installe as $(prefix)/share/language.map) + contains patterns for mapping file names to the appropriate language scanner. + +* id-utils now uses automake. + +* gid, aid and eid are now shell-script wrappers that + call `lid' with the apropriate argument. + +* A new environment `IDPATH' contains a colon-separated list of ID ID file + names for use by `fid' and `lid'. It is only partially implemented at + this time only the first ID file is actually handled, the rest are + ignored. + +* pid is temporarily gone, but will reappear soon. + +* iid has been removed from the distribution. + +* Support for non-ANSI compilers is broken. Don't expect it to work. + If you use gcc, all will be well. + +* Miscellaneous bugs are fixed. Version 3.0 - February 1995, by Greg McGary |
