re: Re: Re: Beta vs. Stable: please update find/xcopy!

Hi, we all know the "dir is lacking /o" problem.

But:

XCOPY is fixed by now. The new zip is called rxcopy... sigh. I missed
the update, too. Works very much the same as MS XCOPY now. Great.

FIND has the FINDFIRST bug which I have recently been searching for:
I have listed one or two other programs that have that bug. The bug is
because Turbo C uses FCB finding, it seems. Which does not accept paths
or drives in the search pattern. The maintainer (jhall himself!?) knows
this and should be working on a fix.

Or it is a kernel bug in findfirst...

By the way, there is a kernel bug in redirection of output: Bart has
fixed it. You can find a copy of the fixed kernel (nothing else, no
docs, no sys: Take those from the official kernel zip) at:

http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/soft/by-others/ or at:
http://www.osuweb.net/~oldeman/kernel.zip

Bart, I think it saves your bandwidth if people download from my copy!?
