My quest to improve POSIX has been paying off. Yesterday (my 30th
birthday, no
less), XCU ERNs 130 and 131 were approved for the next revision of
POSIX:
http://www.opengroup.org/austin/mailarchives/ag/msg10168.html. 130
dealt with
whether we are allowed to have blind macros (ie. "decr" evaluates
to `decr'
rather than `-1', as contrasted with "decr()"). 131 dealt with the
behavior of
changecom when handed empty arguments.
Great news. And Happy Birthday for Wednesday :-)
Cheers,
Gary
