I welcome your help, -but to make my life easier I'd like to request the following: - -- Don't change the version numbers! - -If your changes are extensive, I will have to work hard to -integrate them into my version. If you check it into SCCS locally, -the version numbers will likely be kept. IF you check it into RCS -or CVS locally, please use -k to keep the version numbers, and -please use branch deltas (1.21.1, 1.21.2, ...). If you don't do -this, I will likely be unable to use your changes; life's just too -short. - -- Do not distribute changed versions. - -People trying to be helpful occasionally put up their hacked versions -of the file command for FTP, then the "archie" server finds and publishes -the hacked version, and people all over the world get copies of it. -Within a day or two I am getting email from around the world -asking me why "my" file command won't compile!!! Needless to say this -detracts from the limited time I have available to work on the actual -software.
