on woof.mit.edu, 7.6B:
- jot appears to be broken. This command, which used to generate a
random number, now always give me the number "1". (Not very random,
eh?):
jot -r 1 1 24474 `date | awk '{print $4}' | awk -F: '{print $1$2$3}'`
(I have verified that the whole "awk" thingy does work as expected, so
the trouble is in the jot part.) This should produce a random number
from 1 to 24474, and under 7.6 on all Athena platforms it did...
- the emacs-fails-to-redraw-properly-when-resized-as-it's-starting bug
is back. (I'll show you, if this doesn't ring any bells.)
