The scripts were created by using the existing scripts from the generic



2
Unix port of TADS as a template.  They have been modified in order to



3
fix portability issues.  So if you see a script that looks like this:



4



5
  if test -f "$T3_OUT/$1.log"; then



6
      :



7
  else



8
      foo



9
  fi



10



11
don't bother changing it to:



12



13
  if [ ! -f $T3_OUT/$1.log ]; then



14
    foo



15
  fi



16



17
and sending it to the maintainer.  The second example may look much



18
better, but it's not portable.  ('!' is not portable, '[' is not



19
portable... welcome to Unix!)  Of course, it's unlikely that people use



20
4.3BSD or Solaris 8, but still...
