- Hi Folks,
-
- Boy is my face red.
- If you have Executor/Linux, you should remove the file:
-
- /usr/local/lib/executor/Configuration/426e4871.ecf
-
- and if you have Executor/DOS, you should remove the file:
-
- \EXECUTOR\CONFIGUR\426E4871.ECF
-
- since those files corresponds to BinHex 5.0 and have the nasty
- side-effect of turning off our "New line to Carraige Return" mapping
- heuristic, which in turn causes BinHex to hang.
-
- We didn't notice the problem over here because we don't use the stock
- configuration files. We have a separate configuration directory that
- we use since we do all sorts of goofy things over here that you can't
- (and don't want to) do.
-
- Even more embarrassingly, the trouble people have had with printing
- under Executor/Linux is partially due to us having a different System
- Folder than we give you. Needless to say, we'll have to be more
- careful with exactly what configurations we test before we release new
- experimental versions.
-
- These problems are fixed in 1.99l, which we now hope to have out on
- Wednesday. Although almost all the code is in place for 1.99l, we've
- found and fixed serious bugs today and so we need another day to do
- some little tweaks (like that .ecf fix) and another day beyond that to
- do testing (which means that the soonest you can expect 1.99l is
- Wednesday evening).
-
- BTW, tomorrow, the phone people should be finished putting in the line
- that we'll be using to drive ftp.ardi.com.
