Everything claimed broken in the PR still is. Probably part of my old patches,
too,
although they seemed to improve the situation back then, obviously. I probably
should
do something about this, finally, after all the years (sigh), like, polish the
patches
once more, offer regression tests etc.
For now, something copy-paste'able that might become a regression test somewhen:
# I'm using ksh here
100blas() { for i in $(jot 100 1) ; do printf "bla " ; done ; echo ;}
# 1. fmt -C is broken
100blas > fmt-input1
fmt 10 15 < fmt-input1
fmt -C 10 15 < fmt-input1
# 2. fmt for formatting mails is broken
touch fmt-input2
echo "From myself" >> fmt-input2
echo "To: $(100blas)" >> fmt-input2
echo "Subject: $(100blas)" >> fmt-input2
echo "Cc: $(100blas)" >> fmt-input2
echo "Reply-To: $(100blas)" >> fmt-input2
fmt < fmt-input2
