2006-12-26 Tuesday 05:09  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* test/: brkpt2.right, bug-source.right, debug.right, finish.right,
	  frame.right, misc.right, parm.right, sig.right, tbreak.right,
	  trace.right, watch1.right: Output line numbers have changed yet
	  again.

2006-12-26 Tuesday 04:58  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* dbg-cmds.inc, dbg-init.inc, dbg-list.inc, dbg-set.inc,
	  dbg-show.inc, test/Makefile.am, test/frame.cmd, test/frame.right,
	  test/frame.tests, test/run-frame, test/sig.right: Add set
	  linetrace full Check in frame tests.

2006-12-26 Tuesday 03:17  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* doc/bashdb-man.pod: Make note of -X|Trace and --.

2006-12-26 Tuesday 01:58  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* doc/bashdb.texi: Add footnote about undefined variables in
	  debugger example section.

2006-12-24 Sunday 12:29  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* doc/bashdb.texi: Remove duplicate listing of "return" command.

2006-12-24 Sunday 12:24  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* doc/bashdb.texi: More small typos.

2006-12-23 Saturday 13:50  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* doc/bashdb.texi: Note we can use negative numbers in frame, up
	  and down. Fix some weird grammar one problem caused by a weird
	  texinfo formatting problem - easier to switch remove the
	  formatting that figure out why texinfo mangled things.

2006-12-20 Wednesday 07:51  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* test/sig.right: A different wrong

2006-12-20 Wednesday 07:49  Rocky Bernstein <[e-mail]>

	* dbg-sig.inc, dbg-stack.inc, test/brkpt2.right: dbg-stack.inc:
	  Allow negative numbers in up/down/frame. frame -1 means
	  least-recent frame. Refactor to reduce duplication of code (and
	  increase reliability).

	  dbg-sig.inc: there is still a bug in dbg-stack.in in showing the
	  stack.  The old and new output are both slightly wrong, just a
	  different wrong.

	* doc/bashdb.texi, test/.cvsignore, test/bug-args.cmd,
	  test/bug-args.right, test/bug-args.sh.in, test/bug-args.tests:

	  test/watch2.right: Should be echoing debugger commands? I may
	  reverse this later as what the "right" output should be. Dunno.

	  variable `unbuffered_read'.  Call zsyncfd only if

	  `convert_var_to_array' here.	Don't call `zsyncfd' before calling
	  `zreadlinec' but call it after `zreadlinec'.	Use
	  `bind_array_variable'.  (readarray_builtin): Return error if
	  __CYGWIN__ is defined.  Check `fd' is seek-able or not.  Check
	  `array_name' with `valid_array_reference'.  (readarray_doc):

	  input file name to read line. Use redirection instead.  *
	  readarray.c (readarray_builtin): Use fd instead of fp. Added -u
	  option.  Remove `rval' local variable.  (read_array): Use
	  zreadlinec and zsyncfd.  (zreadlinec): Renamed from getline.

2006-08-21 Monday 11:10  Masatake YAMATO <[e-mail]>

	  and `j' to `array_index' and `line_count'. Initialize
	  `line_count', formally named as `j'; and increment it in the loop
	  condition. Remove const modifier from `execlen'. This causes a
	  syntax error.

2006-08-18 Friday 05:04  Masatake YAMATO <[e-mail]>

	* readarray.c: (read_array): Rename `i_len', a local variable in
