> [1994/12/13] misc/48 /etc/rc does not recover recovery files
> [1995/06/23] misc/556 Bug in /etc/rc
Both of these PRs refer to the same problem, namely that the
commands that are supposed to send mail about vi recovery files
never get run. Probably the best fix is to replace the stuff that is
currently in /etc/rc with /usr/src/usr.bin/vi/install/recover.script,
which I've included below. If the script isn't used, then the following
line in /etc/rc should be changed:
virecovery=/var/tmp/vi.recover/recover.*
should become
virecovery=`echo /var/tmp/vi.recover/recover.*`
--cut here--
# @(#)recover.script 8.7 (Berkeley) 8/16/94
#
# Script to recover nvi edit sessions.
#
RECDIR=/var/tmp/vi.recover
SENDMAIL=/usr/sbin/sendmail
echo 'Recovering vi editor sessions.'
# Check editor backup files.
vibackup=`echo $RECDIR/vi.*`
if [ "$vibackup" != "$RECDIR/vi.*" ]; then
for i in $vibackup; do
# Only test files that are readable.
if test ! -r $i; then
continue
fi
# Unmodified nvi editor backup files either have the
# execute bit set or are zero length. Delete them.
if test -x $i -o ! -s $i; then
rm $i
fi
done
fi
# It is possible to get incomplete recovery files, if the editor crashes
# at the right time.
virecovery=`echo $RECDIR/recover.*`
if [ "$virecovery" != "$RECDIR/recover.*" ]; then
for i in $virecovery; do
# Only test files that are readable.
if test ! -r $i; then
continue
fi
# Delete any recovery files that are zero length, corrupted,
# or that have no corresponding backup file. Else send mail
# to the user.
recfile=`awk '/^X-vi-recover-path:/{print $2}' < $i`
if test -n "$recfile" -a -s "$recfile"; then
$SENDMAIL -t < $i
else
rm $i
fi
done
fi
