2014-10-22Teach ln -f to leave original target alone if link creation fails.Rob Landley
Suggested by Ashwini Sharma, I wound up implementing it by creating the new link at a temporary name and renaming it over the old one instead of renaming the old file out of the way and putting it back if it failed. (Because "mkdir -p one/one/blah && ln -sf /bin/one one" would otherwise rename one/one out of the way and only notice it can't delete it way at the end when recovery's darn awkward, vs create new thing and if rename fails (including EISDIR) that's the main error path. And yes the temporary name is in the same directory as the destination so we never rename between mounts.) link over the old one instead of renaming the old file and renaming it back.
2014-01-16Rename xmsprintf() to just xmprintf().Rob Landley
Partly because there's no supplied target string ala sprintf, and partly because I can never remember what order the m and s go in.

2012-11-13Reindent to two spaces per level. Remove vi: directives that haven't worked ↵Rob Landley
right in years (ubuntu broke its' vim implementation). Remove trailing spaces. Add/remove blank lines. Re-wordwrap in places. Update documentation with new coding style. The actual code should be the same afterward, this is just cosmetic refactoring.
2012-10-08New build infrastructure to generate FLAG_ macros and TT alias, #define ↵Rob Landley
FOR_commandname before #including toys.h to trigger it. Rename DEFINE_GLOBALS() to just GLOBALS() (because I could never remember if it was DECLARE_GLOBALS). Convert existing commands to use new infrastructure, and replace optflag constants with FLAG_ macros where appropriate.
