09/21/87 qedx Known errors in the current release of qedx. # Associated TR's Description 0016 phx17590 phx18344 If the user types an input/request line longer than 512 characters, qedx will overwrite parts of the stack causing subsequent faults or fatal process errors. 0011 phx16226 The "wake_tbl" tty_ mode, which causes the user's process to only be awoken when a "\" is typed, is not reset if the current buffer overflows (ie: exceeds 1044480 characters) during input. 0010 phx15534 phx15664 qedx should not create files whose names require the use of quoting or special control arguments (eg: rename's "-name") as the manipulation of such files pose severe problems for naive (and not so naive) users. Thus, qedx should reject the use of whitespace, command language characters ("()[];), starname characters (*?), and equalname characters (=%) when creating a new file. 0009 phx15606 qedx ignores empty buffers when deciding whether to ask for permis- sion to exit with modified buffers. However, the list of modified buffers displayed in the query includes empty buffers. Empty buffers should not be listed. This is a bug because a user will not be able to reset the modified state of these buffers as qedx does not allow the user to write an empty buffer but the empty buffers will continue to be listed as long as there is one non-empty, modified buffer. 0008 phx15457 phx19279 Given the following sequence of qedx requests: r FILE b(other) $a \b(0) \f the text appended to buffer "other" will not contain the contents of the file that was just read into buffer "0". 0007 phx15204 phx18060 Given the following sequence of requests in an empty buffer: .r FILE 1p 1,$d .r FILE 1p 1,$d .r FILE 1p the first read request will execute properly. However, the second read request will insert a NUL at the beginning of the file as seen by the print request. The third and subsequent read requests will insert a newline at the beginning of the file.
