Re: [U-Boot] [PATCH 3/5] readline(): Add ability to modify a string buffer

24 Oct 2009


      Dear Peter Tyser,
In message 1256259563-32725-3-git-send-email-ptyser@xes-inc.com you wrote:
...
If the 'buf' parameter is a non-0-length string, its contents will be
edited.  Previously, the initial value of 'buf' was ignored and the
user entered its contents from scratch.
What is the purpose of this modification? Are you fixing a bug (which
one?) or implementing an extension (which one) or what?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk

I came home the other night and tried to open the door  with  my  car
keys...and  the  building started up. So I took it out for a drive. A
cop pulled me over for speeding. He asked me where I  live...  "Right
here".                                                - Steven Wright
