  * Makefile.in:
  hide e-mails from ChangeLog

  * index.c:
  fixed: 'lev' strategy ('pple' query doesn't match 'apple' word)
      Affected versions: 1.4.9 - 1.9.9

  * index.c:
  insignificant speed-up of 'lev' strategy

2003-07-10  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * configure.in, Makefile.in:
  DICT_LDFLAGS, DICTD_LDFLAGS, DICTZIP_LDFLAGS and DICTFMT_LDFLAGS
      variables can be used while configure for specifying
      specific LDFLAGS for a particular executable.

      If you want to build dictd with TRE regex engine, for example, run
      DICTD_LDFLAGS='-L/usr/local/lib -ltre' CPPFLAGS='-I/usr/local/include' \
       ./configure

2003-07-09  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictfmt.c:
  fix

2003-07-07  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * Makefile.in: *** empty log message ***

  * configure.in, dict.c, dictd.c, include_regex.h.in, index.c, Makefile.in, parse.c, parse.h:
  parse.{c,h} is a part of dictd.
  fixed: AC_MSG_ERROR calls
  By default system-wide regex engine is used is found.
      You can also use your favourite regex engine by setting
      LDFLAGS and/or CPPFLAGS variables and optionally
      ./configure --with-regex-include=FILE.
      In order to build dictd with local regex enbgine,
      run ./configure --with-local-regex.
  upgrade to autoconf 2.53
  fixed: incorrect detection of external libmaa (libmaa_init requires arguments)

  * libmaa/maa.h, libmaa/Makefile.in, libmaa/parse.c:
  parse.c has been removed from libmaa library. This is because it declares
      'extern' symbols not defined in the library.
  added: 'make uninstall'

  * search_man:
  'search_man' example outputs plain text

  * index.c:
  dict_match function

  * config.h.in:
  upgrade to autoconf 2.53

  added: -t option for 'dictfmt'
  'dictfmt' documentation update

  * dictd.8:
  a few fixes

  * dict.c, configure.in, Makefile.in:
  By default the predefined DICT servers dict.org and alt0.dict.org
      are disabled. If you want to use them, run
      ./configure --enable-dictorg

  * dictfmt.c:
  'dictfmt' doesn't append an empty line to definitions

  * dictfmt.c:
  00-database-{info,short,url} are processed in the same
      way as 00database{info,short,url}

2003-05-30  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dictd.8:
  Added mention ot SIGHUP causing dictd to re-read the configuration
  file, and removed BUG note saying this can't be done.

2003-05-23  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictd.8, dictfmt.1, dictfmt.c, dictunformat:
  added: dictfmt --without-info
  'dictfmt' and 'dictunformat' works better with each other. In particular
      'dictunformat' outputs 00-database-{url,short,info} headwords
      and 'dictfmt' copy 00-database-{url,short}
      headwords to .dict file if -u and -s options
      are not applied respectively.
      For 00-database-info headword see --without-info option.
  'dictfmt' documentation update

2003-04-30  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * Makefile.in:
  fixed: some problems with 'make install'.

  dictP.h cleaups

2003-04-09  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dict.c:
  nothing

  * dict.c, snprintf.c, vsnprintf.c:
  err_fatal(..."Buffer too small\n" ); have been moved to

  all sprintf() in the dict.c have been replaced with snprintf()

  * dictP.h, config.h.in, configure.in:
  dictP.h and configure.in clean-ups
      Thanks to Kimura Fuyuki <fuyuki at hadaly.org} for remarks

2003-04-09  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dict.c:
  Patched to prevent segfault/buffer overrun on excessively long
  dict command lines
  .
  .

2003-04-07  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * configure.in:
  fixed: 'dictd' can not be configured with ./configure --with-local-zlib

  * index.h, dictd.c, index.c, dictd.8:
  added: dictd --fast-start (implied by --inetd) improves dictd's performance
      if it is run from inetd or on platforms without copy-on-write (CYGWIN).

  * dictd.8:
  documentation update

  * dictd.h, dictd.c, daemon.c:
  SHOW SERVER command doesn't show uptime/forks statistics,
      if the dictd is run from inetd.

  * index.c, dictd.h, dictd.c, dictd.8, daemon.c:
  added: dictd inetd support (dictd --inetd)
      Thanks to Joey Hess <joeyh at debian.org}
      and Robert D. Hilliard <hilliard at debian.org} for the patch.

2003-03-27  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictP.h:
  fixed: compilation error

2003-03-26  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up-to-date

  * configure.in:
  version == 1.9.8

2003-03-24  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * data.c:
  fixed: incorrect dzip format detection
  fixed: possible crash while reading too long COMMENT or FNAME fields of
      the dzip'ed file

2003-03-19  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * libmaa/maaP.h, strategy.c, strategy.h, vsnprintf.c, wcrtomb.c, wctomb.c, index.c, index.h, mbrlen.c, mbrtowc.c, mbstowcs.c, mbtowc.c, plugin.c, plugin.h, snprintf.c, dictdplugin.h, dictfmt.c, dictzip.c, dictd.h, dictd.c, dictP.h, defs.h, data.h, data.c, config.h.in, configure.in, daemon.c, Makefile.in:
  Functions related to plugin have moved to plugin.c.
  Several declarations have been moved to defs.h, index.h, data.h, plugin.h
      It makes sources easier to understand (at least for me)
  UTF-8 support is optional. It is disabled on platforms which don't
      support 'iswalnum', 'iswspace' and 'towlower' functions.
      As a result 'dictd' can be compiled on CYGWIN.
  fixed: 'dictdb_free' function is not called

2003-03-09  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * ChangeLog: ChangeLog is up-to-date

  * dictd.c: nothing serious

  * index.c, dictd.c:
  function related to plugin are #ifdef'ed
  added: additional sanity check for disabling database_plugin keyword
      if dictd is compiled without plugin support

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up-to-date

  * configure.in:
  version ==> 1.9.7

2003-03-04  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * data.c:
  fixed: error message

2003-03-03  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * Makefile.in:
  fixed: bug in 'make samples'. It requires installed 'dictfmt'.

  * Makefile.in:
  'make dist' makes distribution tarball by CVS tag

  * dictd.c, dictd.8:
  Documentation update for 'dictd --add-strategy'

  * strategy.h, strategy.c, index.c, dictd.c, dictd.h, daemon.c, Makefile.in:
  All functions related to strategies have been moved to strategy.{h,c}
  added: '--add-strategy' option for 'dictd' which allows
      to implement (with a help of plugins)
      new strategies not available in 'dictd'.
      For example, 'revert' strategy may be implemented.
      By using '--with-strategy' and '--add-strategy' options you
      can create DICT server with the set of strategies you need.

  * dictdplugin_popen.cpp:
  fixed: initializing the array with zeros

2003-03-02  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * daemon.c, dictd.c, dictd.h:
  fixed: DEFINE and MATCH commands return '0 definitions found' but the
      550 exit code, if the invalid database name is specified.

  * dictd.8, servscan.l:
  'string' token in a configuration file supports \", \\, \n, \<NL>
      escape sequences.
      \<NL> (multilined strings) may be useful for specifying plugin data
      or an information about database.

  * index.c:
  critical fix: dictd may crash on BMH search
      (substring, suffix and word strategies) because
      it accesses memory outside mmap'ed region.

      Affected versions: 1.4.9-1.9.5 (All?)

  * ChangeLog: ChangeLog is up-to-date

  * configure.in:
  version == 1.9.6

  * index.c:
  critical fix: dictd may crash on BMH search
      (substring, suffix and word strategies) because it accesses memory
      outside mmap'ed region.

2003-02-28  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * index.c, dictdplugin_popen.cpp:
  fixed: dictWord structures are not initialized with zeros

  * index.c: removed: something strange

2003-02-23  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * daemon.c, dictd.c, dictd.h:
  fixed: if the 'name' keyword is used in database section, and
      it doesn't begin with '@', dictd may crash on SIGHUP.

      Affected versions: 1.9.1-1.9.4.

  The upper visible virtual dictionary is returned by DEFINE and MATCH
      commands if the actual definition/match is found in invisible dictionary.

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up to date

  * configure.in:
  version ==> 1.9.5

  * dictd.c:
  fixed: if the 'name' keyword is used in database section, and
      it doesn't begin with '@', dictd may crash on SIGHUP.

      Affected versions: 1.9.1-1.9.4.

  * data.c, dictd.8, dictd.c, index.c, daemon.c:
  The only required keyword for the virtual database is database_list.
  The '@' symbol in 'name' and 'info' keywords is treated especially.

  * dictd.c:
  plugin specified in the config file also uses default plugin directory

  * daemon.c:
  'info' keyword understand prefix '@' too

  * dictd.c, index.c:
  fixed: short name is initialized before plugin initializing

  * dictd.h, index.c:
  code cleanups
  fixed: bug in passing database names to the plugin

  * configure.in:
  fixed: ./configure --with-nec-socks5

  * daemon.c, dictd.8, dictd.c, dictd.h, dictdplugin.h, index.c, servparse.y, servscan.l:
  added: ability to specify plugin in the configuration file
  documentation update
  added: additional sanity checks

  * daemon.c:
  dict_search_databases function has been simplified

  * servscan.l, dictd.8, dictd.c, dictd.h, servparse.y, daemon.c:
  added: ability to specify virtual dictionary in the configuration file.
      'database_virtual', 'database_list' keywords are added.
  documentation update
  added: 'info' keyword for specifying information about the database
      in the config file. @ prefix is supported.
  added: additional sanity checks

  * dictd.h, servparse.y, daemon.c, dictd.c:
  explicit flag is used for database_exit but the NULL indexFilename

2003-02-21  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * daemon.c:
  debugging command has been removed

  * daemon.c:
  SHOW SERVER command word correctly with invisible databases

  * data.c, dictd.c, dictd.h, servparse.y, servscan.l, daemon.c:
  The keyword 'invisible' may be used inside 'database' section of
      the dictd configuration file.
      This means that the specified dictionary will not be shown to the clients.
      Currently DEFINE and MATCH command returns '*' as a dictionary name.
      Later the name of topmost virtual dictionary will be returned.
      There is no sense to make dictionary invisible if it is included to
      '*' dictionary (i.e. not preceded by dictionary_exit command)

  * dictfmt_plugin:
  fixed: usage message
  'dictfmt_plugin' fails if plugin filename is not specified

2003-02-20  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * servscan.l:
  fixed: dictd.8 says that 'string' can be continued between lines
       but it can not. Now backslash at the end of line (between two " symbols)
       means new line character.

  * configure.in:
  added: ./configure --with-nec-socks5 for those who are behind socks server
       This causes linking with socks5 library both 'dictd' and 'dict'.

2003-02-15  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up-to-date

  * configure.in:
  version ==> 1.9.4

  * dictd.8:
  fixed: misprint in the documentation

2003-02-10  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * configure.in:
  AC_REPLACE_FUNCS(towlower) -> AC_CHECK_FUNCS

  * dictfmt_virtual.1, index.c, dictd.h, dictd.c, config.h.in:
  added: 'dictfmt' adds 00-database-8bit entry to the 8-bit dictionaries.
         'dictd' uses this entry (and 00-database-utf8)
         and fails if "C" locale is specified
         and 8-bit or utf-8 dictionaries are encountered.

         Using "C" locale for 8-bit and utf-8 dictionaries is one of
         the most common error made by dictd users.

  * dictfmt_virtual:
  nothing serious

  * dictfmt.c, dictunformat:
  'dictfmt' fails if --locale="C" (the default) is specified and 8-bit
      head word is encountered.

2003-02-07  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictfmt_index2word:
  'dictfmt_index2word' failes if it is run with the locale "C" and
      index file contains 8-bit head words.

  * dictfmt_index2suffix:
  'dictfmt_index2suffix' failes if it is run with the locale "C" and
      index file contains 8-bit head words.

  * dictfmt.c:
  'dictfmt' run with "C" locale cannot build dictionary containing 8-bit words

  * dictfmt_index2suffix, dictfmt_index2word:
  fixed: problems with filenames containing spaces

  * Makefile.in:
  new man pages are installed/uninstalled

  * configure.in, dictfmt_index2suffix.1, dictfmt_index2word.1, dictfmt_virtual.1, dictunformat.1:
  documentation update

  * Makefile.in:
  fixed: bug in 'samples' target

2003-02-06  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dictunformat.1, dictfmt_index2word.1, dictfmt_virtual.1, dictfmt_index2suffix.1:
  Really added dictfmt_virtual.1, dictunformat.1, dictfmt_index2word.1,
  and dictfmt_index2suffix

2003-02-02  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dict.c, dictd.8:
  Fixed dict.c to accept --serverinfo option, minor changes to dictd.8
  Added dictfmt_index2suffix.1, dictfmt_index2word.1, dictfmt_virtual.1,
  and dictunformat.1

2003-01-21  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictfmt_index2word:
  awk script inside conforms to posix

2003-01-19  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * vsnprintf.c, snprintf.c, dictfmt.c, dictzip.c, dictd.c, daemon.c, configure.in, config.h.in:
  'dictd', 'dictfmt' and 'dictzip' use snprintf and vsnprintf functions
      instead of sprintf and vsprintf on platforms where they are available.

  * dictd.c:
  added: --test-nooutput and --test-idle debugging options to 'dictd'
         They allow to test search speed:
           time_of(dictd --test-nooutput) - time_of (dictd --test-idle)
  fixed: bug with a debugging option --test-match
         Actually it made a DEFINE search

  * dictfmt_virtual, dictfmt.c, dictfmt_plugin:
  added: --silent, --quiet, -q options to 'dictfmt'

  * dictd.h, index.c:
  This significantly speeds up plugin-based search

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog conforms dictd-1.9.3

  * index.c:
  more informative error message

  * dictdplugin_popen.cpp: *** empty log message ***

  * dictfmt_plugin:
  'dictfmt_plugin' doesn't add header and url to the .dict file

  * dictd.c:
  added: additional check for empty database list

2003-01-17  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * configure.in:
  version = 1.9.3

  * dictd.c:
  fixed: dictd may crash when access section of
         the configuration file is empty

2003-01-16  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dictfmt_virtual, servparse.y:
  Patched servparse.y to make dict -D give a nicer message for
  database_exit.
  Patched dictfmt_virtual-patch to prevent failing when optional
  argument info_files is omitted

2003-01-16  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up-to-date

2003-01-15  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * configure.in:
  version=1.9.2

  * dictunformat:
  'dictunformat' can handle databases containing more than one headwords
      for a single definition
  added: --headword-separator argument to 'dictunformat' utility

2003-01-14  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * wcrtomb.c:
  added: wcrtomb.c

  * utf8_ucs4.c, utf8_ucs4.h, wctomb.c, mbtowc.c, mbstowcs.c, mbrtowc.c, mbrlen.c, configure.in, Makefile.in:
  multibyte character oriented functions are implemented in mb*.c and wc*.c
    files and they are used by default instead of standard ones.
    It seems glibc-2.1.3 has broken wcrtomb.

2003-01-09  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * index.c, dictunformat:
  mbstate_t

  * Makefile.in:
  install/uninstall makefile's targets use DESTDIR environment variables.
         This simplifies building RPMs.

2003-01-08  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dictzip.c, index.c:
  Patched dictzip.c to revent segfault on excessively long command lines
  Patched index.c so dictd will startup without error if config file
  includes the /dev/null database

2003-01-03  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * index.c:
  mbstate_t is not used

  * data.c, dictd.c, dictfmt.c, index.c, ChangeLog, config.h.in, configure.in, daemon.c, Makefile.in:
  functions from utf8_ucs4.c have been replaced with the standard ones.
  a few changes in configure.in
  DEFINE command returns an error message (MATCH command stops the search)
    for invalid utf-8 query (This is a trick!!!)
  dictfmt is linked with libmaa
  added: the following options to dictfmt:
         --without-header
         --without-url
         --without-time

2002-12-25  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * Makefile.in:
  'dictunformat' is installed and uninstalled like 'dictfmt'

  * dictunformat, index.c:
  fixed: typo
  added: dictunformat which is able to extract dictionary
         from .dict and .index files.
         This may be used to recreate database from 8-bit character sets
         to utf-8 or to another format

2002-12-17  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up-to-date

  * libmaa/config.sub, libmaa/configure.in, ChangeLog, configure.in, dict.c, utf8_ucs4.c:
  code cleanups
  libmaa version set to 0.95
  dictd version set 1.9.1

2002-12-15  Bob Hilliard  <hilliard at debian.org}

  * dict.c:
  Modified client_print_listed() to make dict -D and dict -S print long
  names sanely.

2002-12-10  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictd.h:
  fixed: problems in building 'dictd' without plugin support

  * configure.in:
  fixed: Even if you run ./configure with --disable-plugin, ltdl.h is needed

  * configure.in:
  configure.in: version number 1.8.0 ==> 1.9.0

2002-12-05  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * search_man:
  fixed: forgot to remove sending a debugging e-mail message

2002-12-04  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * example_virtual.conf:
  fixed: typo

  * ChangeLog:
  ChangeLog is up to date

  * index.c:
  Plugin version == 1 is disabled. Version == 0 is allowed only.

  * dictd.c, example_virtual.conf, index.c, servparse.y, servscan.l, daemon.c, data.c, dictd.8:
  added: 'database_exit' directive to dictd.conf.
         You can use 'virtual' dictionaries without plugin support.
         See man dictd.8 and example_virtual.conf for details.
  fixed: crash during debugging (-dsearch) output (80 chars limit)

2002-12-03  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictdplugin_popen.cpp, example_popen.conf, index.c, search_man, dictdplugin_exit.c, dictdplugin.h, daemon.c, data.c, dictd.h, dictdplugin-config.in, INSTALL, Makefile.in:
  fixed: warning messages produced by gcc
  added: example 'popen' plugin. FOR PLUGIN DEMONSTRATION ONLY.
  added: popen plugin dictdplugin_popen.cpp. See INSTALL section 5.
  added: plugins can operate with strategies.
         See DICT_PLUGIN_INITDATA_STRATEGY constant,
           dictPluginData_strategy structure from dictdplugin.h and
           dictdplugin_popen.cpp for a sample of use

  * dictd.c:
  fixed: non-critical memory leaks again

  * dictd.h, dictdplugin-config.in, dictfmt_plugin, index.c, dictd.8, dictd.c, Makefile.in:
  By default (if not full filename name specified) plugins/dictionaries will be
    searched in $datadir/$libexecdir directory. It is a compile time option.

  * daemon.c:
  dictd can processes several conversions made by plugin.
    Example: if the plugin converts 'found' word to 'find' and 'found',
             all following dictionaries will be searched for both
             'find' and 'found'
    Example: if the plugin converts 'fruit' word to 'apple' and 'orange',
             all following dictionaries will be searched for both 'apple'
             and 'orange'

  Updated dictd.8 to include options added in 1.8.0.
  Updated dictfmt.c to correct previous errors and omissions and include
  options added in 1.8.0.

2002-10-17  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * daemon.c, dictd.c, dictd.h:
  removed: --define-strategy option for 'dictd'

  * index.c: *** empty log message ***

  * servparse.y, servscan.l, index.c, dictfmt_index2suffix, dictfmt_index2word, dictd.h, dictd.c, daemon.c, Makefile.in:
  fixed: missing dependancy in Makefile.in
  added: fast implementation (binary search) of the WORD strategy search.
         This requires additional index file created by dictfmt_index2word
  added: --test-match option to dictd executable
  fixed: problems with suffix strategy using additional index file

  * daemon.c, dictdplugin.h, index.c:
  ADDED: new search strategy 'word'

  update ChangeLog

2002-09-27  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * libmaa/config.h.in, libmaa/configure.in, libmaa/error.c, ChangeLog, config.h.in, configure.in, daemon.c, data.c, dictd.c, dictd.h, dictdplugin.c, dictdplugin_exit.c, dictdplugin.h, dictP.h, index.c, Makefile.in:
  added: possibility to disable plugin support
         by running ./configure --disable-plugin
  fixed: problems with make -j. patch by
         Andrzej Dopierala <undefine at aramin.one.pl}
  fixed: problems with make ChangeLog
  added: possibility to build 'dictd' on platforms not supporting mmap()
  added: a lot of 'const' modifyers
  removed: 'goto' statement ;) from daemon.c
  added: --test-file argument to 'dictd'
         '--ftime' and '--test-file' are synonyms
  'dictd --test-file' and 'dictd --test' now search in ALL databases
         but the first one only.
  added: --test-db to 'dictd'
         It sets the database name for --test and --test-file.
  plugin function dictdb_open can return version == 1.
         In this case before each 'dictdb_search' call, 'dictdb_set'
         should be called. Not fully implemented.
  added:  DICT_PLUGIN_INITDATA_DBNAME data id for initialising plugin
         the databases names are passed to the plugins
         by the call of 'dictdb_open'
         This can be used to implement "virtual" databases such as
         "English monolingual" containing Webster, FOLDOC, WordNet etc...
  added: new plugin exit status DICT_PLUGIN_RESULT_EXIT
         which allows to stop searching.
         This is an easiest way to exclude some databases from '*' list.
         Example:
           1) Webster
           2) Wordnet
           3) ----- dictdplugin_exit.so plugin -----
           4) man pages
           5) RFC documents
           6) HOWTOs
           7) C++ functions
           8) Perl functions
         Using such database list, you will search
         only Webster and Wordnet databases
         by running 'dict apple'.
         If you want to get RFC document e.g., specify database name explicitly.
         Of course, plugin may exit with such exit status
         not only unconditionally
  added: dictdplugin_exit.so plugin
         Stops searching unconditionally.
  added: new plugin exit status DICT_PLUGIN_RESULT_PREPROCESSED
         which allows to implement a preprocessor of the requested word.
         Simple examples:
           - Converting German umlauts to UE, OE etc.
           - Converting Cyrillic YO character to YE
         After plugin converts the requested word, all following databases
         will be searched for converted one.
         In order this to work, it is necessary to create .index files
         without umlauts and Cyrillic YO characters.
         Database list example:
           1) ---- plugin converting German umlauts ------
           2) ---- plugin converting Cyrillic YO to YE ---
           3) German-English dictionary
           4) Russian-English dictionary
  fixed: bug in 'dict_search_plugin' function

2002-09-18  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * dictfmt.c:
  dictfmt: --headword-separator doesn't imply --without-headword

  * dictdplugin.c, dictdplugin.h:
  constant strings definitions have been moved to dictdplugin.c

  * index.c:
  fixed: memory leak

2002-09-16  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * config.h.in, configure.in, daemon.c, dictd.c, dictd.h, dictdplugin.c, dictdplugin-config.in, dictdplugin.h, doc/Makefile.in, index.c, libmaa/config.h.in, libmaa/configure.in, libmaa/Makefile.in, Makefile.conf, Makefile.in, plugin.h, INSTALL:
  fixed: bug in configure.in
         ./configure --sysconfdir was completely ignored
  changed: The default "prefix" directory from /usr to /usr/local
         just like most other packages do.
  removed: --with-etcdir argument of configure script.
         Use --sysconfdir instead.
         Run "./configure --prefix /usr --sysconfdir /etc" to
             get "configure" script behaviour
         similar to older dictd "configure".
  plugin improvements/changes:
    - plugin.h renamed to dictdplugin.h
    - In order to avoid confusing
      several #defines have been renamed.
      Now all #defines have DICT_ prefix.
    - "all" Makefile target builds library libdictdplugin.a.
      Link plugins with it.
    - dictdplugin-config configuration tool. It is like gtk-config.
  Error message is returned by dictd if the request is
     not a valid UTF-8 string and remaining databases will not be checked.
  fixed: warning messages produced by autoreconf

  * ChangeLog: Update ChangeLog

2002-09-12  Aleksey Cheusov <vle at gmx.net}

  * configure.in, daemon.c, data.c, dictd.c, dictd.h, dictfmt_plugin, dictzip.c, index.c, plugin.h, utf8_ucs4.c, utf8_ucs4.h:
  fixed: crash while debugging output (80 chars limit)
  fixed: a lot of memory leaks. All they not critical because
         they happened during server initialisation only but
         I prefer to free memory explicitly.
  added: --no-mmap argument to 'dictd'
  ADDED: plug-in capability for DICTD.
         Using it you can develop alternative database formats,
         linguistic modules such as stemming/translator, "redirectors"
         to another dictd or on-line dictionaries such as Britannica, or
         even front-end to your favourite intra-net searchers such as
         mnogosearch and ht://Dig. Almost everything you want.

         See plugin.h and dictfmt_plugin for details

1996-12-26  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Make top-level "tests" target to run all regression tests.
  2) Do not free nseqs after the "return" statement.
  3) Add .dq debugging flag to debug the pending delete queue.
  4) Fix typo that prevented -pg from working (this was most important).

1996-12-25  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Re-did all the Range stuff again.  Here is how it works:
     At parse time, but never again:
      (N_SeqRange (N_Range1 .))      1 .. last (doesn't exist at parse time)
      (N_SeqRange (N_Range2 . .))    first .. last
      (N_SeqRange (N_Range3 . . .))  first, second .. last
     After post-parse processing, and thereafter:
      (N_SeqRange1 .)      1 .. last
      (N_SeqRange2 . .)    first .. last
      (N_SeqRange3 . . .)  first .. last .. step
  2) Added the new dpl_st_range_step_i call, which takes (first, last, step).
  3) Use dpl_copy whenever an nseq is assigned to another nseq (these
     assignments should be (automatically) removed when value tracking and
     CSE are addes).
  4) Moved dom-removal from pl.k to simple.k.  This is more appropriate.

  * libmaa/version.c:
  Major milestone: qsort runs to completion after a little tweaking.
  Here's what needs fixing:
      nseq assignment needs to use dpl_copy
      dpl_st_range uses the old style ranges, not the ones used by N_Range

  Other stuff in this checking:
  1) Exapanded ex4.pro so debug indexing
  2) Finished implementation of flat indexing (vs. SelectSeq)
  3) Added new functions: leseq, combine, flatten, concat
  4) Convert dom into range1
  5) Output DPL for index, concatreduce, combine
  6) Added ad hoc on-the-fly type generation for indexing (similar to that
     for insert/extract)
  7) Fix insert/extract on-the-fly type generation
  8) Print out types of all assignments -- this helps with debugging
  9) Fix type printing as called by tre_print.  Now type variables in a
     tre_print will be correctly identified as 'a, 'b, etc.  Before they
     might all be called 'a even when they were different.  (This was an
     error of printing -- the types were correctly stored as differentiated
     variables.)

1996-12-23  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Get insert/extract working.  For type checking, there is now a callback
     that will be called whenever a type definition cannot be found in the
     usual ways (this is a ``last resort'' callback).  The extract/insert
     type creation callback examines the current tree and creates an
     inference rule for it, making an entry in the symbol table so that this
     won't have to be regenerated again (although this may not currently be
     in the proper scope).  Next, I'll use this same callback to generate
     inference rules for indexing instances.
  2) Re-did all the range stuff.  Now N_Range1, N_Range2, and N_Range3 are
     carried through the transformations end-to-end.  This allows early
     detection of range1, and prevents a lot of dists of 1's.  It also means
     that we can avoid dpl_st_range_p at the Proteus-source level, since this
     function is not working in DPL.
  3) Added transforms to DPL calls for #, +/, ++, and a few others (?).
  4) Fixed some places where _tre_DeleteQueueProhibited was not being
     properly restored.  This led to a situation where the delete queue was
     never emptied, which led to infinite attempts to delete the deleted
     node.

  Next, figure out how to type check indexing.  Was the type system designed
  to handle this?

1996-12-22  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Removed some calls to fixup_scopes() since these should no longer be
     necessary (because of the hook which calls fixup_scopes() automatically
     at tree-insertion time).
  2) Added extensive debugging printouts to flatten.k and simple.k
  3) Added checks to make sure flattening and simplification actually worked.
  4) Fixed some dpl types in header.pro that were overly restrictive.
  5) Delayed removal of primed operators until type checking is no longer
     done.
  6) Totally re-wrote let simplification to deal correctly with changing
     scopes.  This was needed to get qsort.pro to transform.

  qsort.pro transforms now, but the output won't compile.  I need to get type
  checking working for Insert/Extract before I can look for other bugs in the
  transformations.  Although the type inference engine should be able to deal
  with these functions (it was designed to do so), it has never been hooked
  up to the high-level (e.g., Proteus language) code and tested.  Instead of
  using these type inference features to typecheck these functions, I'm going
  to try to use the backdoor I installed for the typechecking of the
  higher-order primed functions.  This should be easier to get working, and
  still makes use of the type inference engine, it just bypasses the
  arithmetic type clauses.

1996-12-14  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c: 1) Changed spacing of ChangeLog
  2) Re-wrote let flattening (Palmer96 Rule1).  But still need to fixup
     scope.
  3) Re-wrote zip flattening (Palmer96 Rule5).  Would like to simplify this
     by adding a Khepera "optional" match.
  4) Added much more readable output for -V tracing (-dverbose).
  5) Added sscope fixups to be automatically applied at each insertion.
  6) Added printing support for unique node values (-d.unique).
  7) Experimented with removing symbols from the symbol table.  This is
     probably a very bad idea, but I'll leave the code there for now.  (The
     functions aren't used.)
  8) Made removal of pending nodes and queuing of pending nodes a critical
     section.
  9) Made fast post-order walks actually work.  (The logic had been inverted,
     so they were incorrectly used on small trees, but not on the main tree.)

  Still working on let scoping debugging.

  * libmaa/Makefile.in: Fix ChangeLog creation

  * libmaa/doc/extract.pl, libmaa/version.c, libmaa/Makefile.in:
  Added dist target to makefile
  Fixed perl script to work under Perl 5

1996-12-07  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Temporarily removed FORTRAN transformations from build.  They need to be
     updated in the face of other global changes, but they probably need to
     be completely re-written.
  2) Added support for a dpl subdirectory.
  3) Made other changes to get tiny test program to compile with C+DPL.  Now
     I'm working on qsort and am running into scope problems -- the
     transformations don't automaticallly preserve scope, so scopes must be
     propagated by hand.  Hence, forgetting when the scopes need updating is
     easy to do.  The quick fix is probably to re-run the scope updates from
     the ASTRoot frequently.
  4) Make main() function that includes call to dpl_setmem.  Need to add a
     return 0.
  5) Add last-use detection for variables, and insert calls to dpl_fre_nseq.

  This all means that this simple example now compiles with C+DPL:
      #include "header.pro"
      function foo(i:int, j:int):int { return i*j; }
      print [i in [1..30]: foo(i,i)];

  Tomorrow: get qsort to compile as well.

  * libmaa/version.c:
  Added query and if-then-else simplification.

  * libmaa/version.c:
  When looking for cpp, first try to use the one that comes with gcc.  Then
  look on the system for one.  We should probably incorporate the GNU cpp and
  hack it so that it won't print warnings for Proteus code.  For now, just
  redirect errors to /dev/null.

1996-11-26  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c, libmaa/error.c:
  1) Added simplify.k and moved all the simplifications there.
  2) Re-wrote the simplifications based on knowledge contained in the
     post-mortem analysis of trans.  Specifically, internested let and
     if-then-else expressions must be handled correctly.  I did the let part
     and will do the if-then-else part next.
  3) Make the uncall functions put identifiers in the top-level scope and
     mark them as DECLARED.  This prevents a N_Var declaration being made for
     them later.  If will also permit us to write type signatures for all of
     these functions, and treat them as builtins.  I think this will
     eliminate the need for moving back-and-forth between infix notation and
     functional notation, since it looks like that only thing that currently
     needs infix notation is the type checker.
  4) Added is_literal call to identifier Proteus literals.
  5) Ripped out the N_Build stuff and added more general call/uncall support
     for nodes which take an N_ExpressionList as an argument (currently,
     N_Sequence and N_Print).
  6) Make things which are already declared as declared, and insert N_Var
     declarations for everything else.
  7) Add C pretty-printing for types in N_Var, N_Param, and N_Function.
  8) Removed number from tree printouts unless -d.enum is used.  These
     numbers were for debugging, but are not useful since we use the N_ names
     for node everywhere.  The other names should probably be deprecated (but
     are still used for default pretty-printing).
  9) In the Khepera language compiler, don't declare any variables introduced
     in a rebuild statement.  Previously, only the root of the rebuild wasn't
     decalred.  This should all be done with typechecking, and will be in the
     next re-write of the Khepera language compiler :)

1996-11-23  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Make add_primed_func_defns propagate the return type as well as the
     argument types.
  2) Added functions to push [a in a_p, b in b_p, ... : ... ] through the
     expression as index operations (alternatively, this could be implemented
     with the now-non-existent zip primitive).
  3) Added functions to handle simple dom() simplification.  More complex
     functions will be easy to add as needed.
  4) Convert (N_Sequence (N_ExpressionList ...)) into (N_Build ...) so that
     these node can be interconverted with N_Call nodes, allowing iterators
     to be pushed through them.
  5) Added support for the "walk" keyword in the Khepera language.  This
     allows a pre-order walk to be performed of an arbitrary node, much like
     the "children" keyword allows the children to be iterated over.
  6) Fixed bug where deleting nodes which were queued for deletion caused a
     non-reentrant function to be called twice.  (Made tre_delete_queued
     reentrant.)
  7) Added font-lock mode definition as a comment in khepera-mode.el.

  This all means that Dan's Rule 0 through Rule 5 are fully impemented.  I'm
  going to work on function call parameter lifting next, and then on last-use
  detection so that DPL memory management can be added....

1996-11-19  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Finally got Palmer96 rules 1-5 implemented.  There are a few problems:
      a) Primed function duplication doesn't work unless the type of the
         function is either specified or can be derived.  It can't be derived
         if the prime function isn't used.  The right way to do this is to
         delete primed functions (or not generated them) unless they are
         used.  However, due to POLYMORPHISM, this isn't possible without
         cooperation from the type system.  Adding this cooperation will take
         time.  Hence, I'm punting on this until we deal with polymorphism in
         general.
      b) I used the "James" method of generating primed functions, and I
         haven't written the part that pushed the zip'd components through to
         indexing.  I'll do that next.
  2) Removed Lar's optimiztion.k for the time being.  It doesn't help us to
     actually generate code and only confuses things.  I'll put it back after
     we can generate C+DPL.
  3) Redid all the call/uncall stuff using a header file.  Now, one line has
     to be added and the call/uncall functions will get created _and_ mapped
     into the xfm Rule body.  See functions.h for the list.
  4) Deactivated a bunch of transformations that do not get us any closer to
     executable code.
  5) Commented some of the rules.
  6) Fixed a few aesthetic bugs in error printing.
  7) Saved Lar's transform.c as transform.lars.c.
  8) Tried to fix the enclosed version of cpp to implement the ANSI #
     stringification directive.  Gave up.  Patched the parser routines to
     find the native cpp instead.  Will delete the local cpp next time -- its
     just too old to be useful, and ptrans requires an ANSI C compiler
     anyway.
  9) tre_fast_postorder_allowed lets you know if a tre_fast_postorder walk is
     possible.  It isn't right now if you aren't walking from the root of the
     labeled tree.

1996-11-15  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c: New example

1996-11-11  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c, libmaa/maa.c:
  Broke out type dumping routines (for debugging with readable types).
  Make top-level dist target.
  Added top-level version.c and version/copyright printing stuff.  To bump
      the version, make version.stamp and check in the new version.c.
  Tried to free memory that the type inference system creates.  I got some of
      this, but not all of it.  Specifically, I can't figure out how to
      safely free type expressions (Expr in khepera/lib/typ.c).  These
      maintain their own reference counts, but only for internal references,
      not for references from the AST or from the symbol table.  Sometimes
      types get destroyed on-the-fly, so a simple list of all allocated type
      expressions is not sufficient.  It would be nice to get this done
      sometime, since then we could look for real memory leaks and make
      better use of the debugging malloc technology we have available.
  Fixed all obvious memory leaks in the khepera language translator program
      (which doesn't use the type system, and only had some leaks related to
      the symbol-table).

  * libmaa/version.c:
  1) Added code to take advantage of 1 and 2 parameter versions of dpl_range*
  2) Added transformations for dpl_dist*, dpl_restrict*
  3) Print warning when an AST node does not have an entry in header.pro
     (a type isn't needed, just an entry -- at least this way we know about
     it; and, because of the powerful type inference engine, everything
     doesn't have to be explicitly typed -- the engine will figure out what
     the type has to be most (all?) of the time).
  todo) work on -fflatten and -fsimple, especially for if statements

1996-11-10  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c, libmaa/memory.c, libmaa/maa.h, libmaa/basetest.c, libmaa/basetest.out, libmaa/base64.c, libmaa/base26.c, libmaa/Makefile.in:
  1) Fixed up name mangling for multi-arity types.
  2) Hooked up Libmaa memory objects to the type inference.  This gives maybe
     a 10% improvement on short examples.  Oh well.
  3) Made type printing more pretty by using letters instead of %p (this
     is what the base 26 stuff is for in Libmaa).
  4) Looked really hard at how to get polymorphic (and primed functions) to
     print out in executable code.  The problem here is that the type system
     figures out monomorphic types for each instance of a function use.
     E.g., at the N_Call node, monomorphic types have to exist for type
     checking to complete.  However, after figuring out all this information,
     the type system just THROWS IT AWAY!  This is a fine thing to do for a
     type system, since it can just re-figure it out again later.  But it
     isn't very helpful if you want to generate executable monomorphic
     instances for the functions.  I looked in the type engine at the
     function where the monomorphic-instance information exists
     (inf_infer_definition), but there isn't enough information at that point
     to let the high-level code know that a new monomorphic instance needs to
     be generated.  Fixing this is going to require kludging the type system
     so that it has enough information to notify the high-level code via a
     callback.  Then the high-level code has to deal with renaming the
     monomorphic instance and generating the necessary monomorphic executable
     code.  Getting all of these details right was one of the biggest
     problems that I had with the type inference engine in trans.  Based on
     previous experience with trans, I think this problem will take several
     weeks to fix in ptrans.  Hence, I'm going to ignore polymorphic
     functions for now.  Code will only be generated for typed functions and
     for functions that analyze to a single monomorphic instance (and, maybe
     not even the later, since there still isn't enough information at the
     top level to generate a typed C or Fortran function -- that information
     is also lost even though the function is just untyped and isn't actually
     polymorphic).  Primed functions can be handled with Lar's kludge:
     generate (typed) primed versions of all user-defined functions early,
     and generate code for them regardless of the need for such code.
  5) The next big hurdles are to get DPL memory management working, and to
     get all the appropriate DPL functions generated.  The I can start
     checking the flattening transformations.  I need to get all of this done
     by the middle or end of the week so that I can start on the debugging
     support.  In fact, even without memory management, I can start working
     on debugging support, so that's probably what I should do as soon as
     compilable DPL can be generated...

  * libmaa/version.c: Recursive typechecking works.  Joy.

1996-11-08  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  Recursive functions do _not_ typecheck.  Fuck.
  Made automatic function name mangling work for variable-argument functions.
  Fixed types.k (these rules are far too application order-dependent).
  Make ground matching work (e.g., (N_Node 0) matches N_Node without
  any children) in Khephera language.

1996-11-04  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c:
  Fixed pp_* so that default printing styles works.
  Added a bunch of dpl_* primitives.
  Fixed local cpp copy so that ## token concatenation has no warning.
  Added a queue of nodes that have a delete pending.  This allows the
     node that is currently being walked in the tree to be deleted.  This
     had been an impossible operation previously.
  Tightened up error checking in tree walkers.
  Made 'else' actually work in Khepera if clauses.  Previously the else
     clause was executed along with the then clause.

  Starting to add primitive dpl_mul-like operations.

1996-10-31  faith  <faith at dict.org}

  * libmaa/version.c: Added dpl_build_*
  Added ability to use .. (sametypes) wildcard in var declaration

  * libmaa/version.c, libmaa/config.sub:
  Added topl.c and pl.k for transformations to a generic parallel library
  Transform various ranges into dpl_st_range_*
  Remove conf.cache when building configure files
  Make config.sub recognize i686
  Removed verbose tree printing so that new tree printing can be more
     selective (e.g., for debugging)
  Fixed bug where a poiner from alloca was used as a symbol name

  Added prtest to libmaa suite

  * libmaa/version.c, libmaa/prtest.c, libmaa/pr.c, libmaa/maa.h, libmaa/error.c:
  Made error messages more uniform
  Made process support use file descriptors instead of stream I/O.  You
  should still be able to fdopen on a fd returned from a function, if you
  do all of the I/O yourself.  However, a filter function was added, so
  playing with I/O probably isn't needed.  Coprocesses, or a coprocess chain,
  should be fairly easy to set up now, in a generalized fashion.  Signals
  still aren't handled in a POSIX way, and deaths of children aren't caught
  asynchronously, so support can still be made better.
