Lasse Collin 4ab7b16b95 A few grammar fixes.
Thanks to Christian Weisgerber for pointing out some of these.

Lasse Collin 68059334ff Add PACKAGE_HOMEPAGE to {windows,dos}/config.h to fix build errors. 2009-09-11 17:06:32 +03:00
Lasse Collin 221be761f4 Use $(LN_EXEEXT) in symlinks to executables.
This fixes "make install" on operating systems using
a suffix for executables.

Cygwin is treated specially. The symlink names won't have
.exe suffix even though the executables themselves have.
Thanks to Charles Wilson.

Lasse Collin 429910b2ba Add OS/2-specific code to physmem.h.
Also move DJGPP-specific code near the code meant
for other DOS-like systems.

Lasse Collin 60ccb80c9c Use sysctl() != -1 instead of !sysctl() to check if
the function call succeeded.

NetBSD 4.0 returns positive values on success, but
NetBSD Current and FreeBSD return zero. OpenBSD's
man page doesn't tell what sysctl() returns on
success. All these BSDs return -1 on error.

Thanks to Robert Elz and Thomas Klausner.

Lasse Collin 173368911c Mention in INSTALL that --enable-small doesn't modify CFLAGS. 2009-09-02 09:43:51 +03:00
Lasse Collin 319a0fd7d7 Refactored option parsing. 2009-09-01 20:40:01 +03:00
Lasse Collin 25adaaa56e Fix options parsing bug in xz.
xz used to reject "xz --lzma2=pb=2," while
"xz --lzma2=pb=2,," worked. Now both work.

Lasse Collin 655457b9ad Revert 43f44160b1
and use a fix that works on all systems using
GNU assembler.

Maybe the assembler code is used e.g. on Solaris x86
but let's worry about it if this doesn't work on it.

Lasse Collin 94c66b3297 Use even more hackish way to support thousand separators.
Seems that in addition on Windows and DOS, also OpenBSD
lacks support for %'d style printf() format strings.
So far that is the only modern POSIX-like system I know
with this problem, but after this hack, the thousand
separator shouldn't be a problem on any system.

Maybe testing if a format string like %'d produces
reasonable output is invoking undefined behavior on some
systems, but so far all the problematic systems I've tried
just print the raw format string (e.g. %'d prints 'd).

Maybe Autoconf test would have been better, but this
hack works also for cross-compilation, and avoids
recompilation in case the system libc starts to support
the thousand separator.

Lasse Collin 3e2ba8b585 Updates to liblzma API headers.
Added lzma_nothrow for every function. It adds
throw() when the header is used in C++ code.

Some lzma_attrs were added or removed.

Lots of comments were improved.

Lasse Collin b198e770a1 Updated faq.txt.
Some questions worth answering were removed, because I
currently don't have good up to date answers to them.

Lasse Collin 3ce1916c83 Fix data corruption in LZ/LZMA2 encoder.
Thanks to Jonathan Stott for the bug report.

Lasse Collin 66da129c8e Updated INSTALL and PACKAGERS to match the changes
made in --enable-dynamic.
2009-08-13 15:15:37 +03:00
Lasse Collin 8238c4b240 Link lzmainfo against shared liblzma by default. 2009-08-13 15:03:46 +03:00
Lasse Collin 71f18e8a06 Make --enable-dynamic a tristate option.
Some programs will by default be linked against static
liblzma and some against shared liblzma. --enable-dynamic
now allows overriding the default to both directions
(all dynamic or all static) even when building both
shared and static liblzma.

This is quite messy compared to how simple thing it is supposed
to be. The complexity is mostly due to Windows support.

Lasse Collin 5aa4678b23 Fix xz Makefile.am for the man page.
install-exec-hook -> install-data-hook
2009-08-13 12:56:47 +03:00
Lasse Collin e51b4e49e8 Add lzmainfo for backward compatibility with LZMA Utils.
lzmainfo now links against static liblzma. In contrast
to other command line tools in XZ Utils, linking lzmainfo
against static liblzma by default is dumb. This will be
fixed once I have fixed some related issues in configure.ac.
2009-08-13 12:55:45 +03:00
Lasse Collin a4165d0584 Sync some error messages from xz to xzdec.
Make xz error message translation usable outside
xz (at least in upcoming lzmainfo).
2009-08-13 12:42:36 +03:00

Lasse Collin e1ce2291e7 Added a rough version of the xz man page. 2009-08-10 11:22:31 +03:00
Jonathan Nieder e71903fc61 “xzdiff a.xz b.xz” always fails
Attempts to compare two compressed files result in no output and
exit status 2.

Instead of going to standard output, ‘diff’ output is being
captured in the xz_status variable along with the exit status from
the decompression commands.  Later, when this variable is examined
for nonzero status codes, numerals from dates in the ‘diff’ output
make it appear as though decompression failed.

So let the ‘diff’ output leak to standard output with another file
descriptor.  (This trick is used in all similar contexts elsewhere
in xzdiff and in the analogous context in gzip’s zdiff script.)

Jonathan Nieder 1d314b81aa xzless: Support compressed standard input
It can be somewhat confusing that

	less < some_file.txt

works fine, whereas

	xzless < some_file.txt.xz

does not.  Since version 429, ‘less’ allows a filter specified in
the LESSOPEN environment variable to preprocess its input even if
it comes from standard input, if $LESSOPEN begins with ‘|-’.  So
set $LESSOPEN to take advantage of this feature.

Check less’s version at runtime so xzless can continue to work
with older versions.
