Release v1.0.24

This release includes a fix for compiling plpfuse on recent Linux, and attempts to fix plpftp’s command-line parsing, which had serious bugs. I apologise that I have not been able to test all of the fixes, and welcome reports of success or failure with it, along with any offers of help with further testing. Hopefully, having simplified the code, it will be easier to fix, at least.

Release v1.0.23

This release contains code clean-up and portability improvements.

Release v1.0.22

This release uses an updated gnulib to cope with systems that lack a functioning ‘join’, but provide it under another name, such as ‘gjoin’.

Release v1.0.21

This release contains more build system and minor documentation improvements. No code changes.

Release v1.0.20

This release includes some portability fixes, and rewrites the README

Release v1.0.19

This release improves portability of the code, with a focus on making it work on macOS. In particular, compatibility with MacFUSE was fixed.

Gnulib has been added to the build system, which has allowed most of the
portability code (except for that dealing with hardware flow control for
serial communication) to be removed in favour of using various gnulib
modules (polyfills).

Some minor infelicities that came to light during this process were fixed, including a non-portable printf format that would be wrong on many modern systems.

Release v1.0.18

This release improves the build system to check the version of readline and only build with versions that work. This should fix compilation errors on macOS where its ancient libedit’s readline support is incomplete.

Copyright headers have now been added to all source files.

The magic files for file(1) have been removed. The magic in file(1) has been updated upstream, and should be available in file 5.46 and later.

Finally, the HISTORY file is updated to account for the last 15 or so years,
and etc/psidump.1 has been edited to remove references to its original
upstream: it’s long been part of plptools as far as plptools is concerned.

Release v1.0.17

This release fixes some portability bugs in the build system, and updates copyright headers in the source code to point to the GPL online, rather than suggesting one send a letter to the Free Software Foundation.

Some code clean-up has been done, dead code removed, and the build system updated to require autoconf 2.71.

The README now points users to the man pages.

Release v1.0.16

This release adds macOS compatibility. Thanks, @kapfab!
