Previously top would warn users if an older version of an rcfile was about to be overwritten. That's assuming that RCFILE_NOERR was not defined. This left, however, other potential rcfile issues or questions unattended. For example, if a faulty 'inspect' redirected echo had overwritten all window entries or if the inspect entry was not 'pipe' or 'file' (actually, just a 'p' or 'f') then top would silently accept it but look no further. With this commit top will try to process every inspect entry, while preserving unrecognized entries. Plus all other non-fatal rcfile errors will now alert a user to the potential overwrite when the 'W' command is given. (now that we know a '.' + 2 spaces is squeezed to one) (everything's perfectly justified, but it's just luck) Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net> |

COMPATIBILITY This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and hopefully all future kernels. INSTALLATION If you are using git version of the project you need extra step. ./autogen.sh After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for your needs. ./configure make make install If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite. make check HOW TO CONTRIBUTE See Documentation/BUGS file. PACKAGING If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section applies to you. Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not included. Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via email without need for an account. For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags to the CFLAGS variable.
