Hi Joseph,
OK by me. After I pull your patch, I'll figure out what issue there is with
removing the ultrix string fix. The "Unterminated HereString" message
is supposed to mean that no line starting with "_EXAMPLE_TOKEN_"
can be found after a construct like:
some-name = <<_EXAMPLE_TOKEN_
It is too bad we don't have access to one copy of every "supported" machine.
Were we to have such, I'd fiddle the "check" code to register which fixes
actually fire and remove the ones that do not. Nothing for it, I guess.
Thanks - Bruce
