[Coco] Kreider OS-9 C Library

[Bill Pierce]

Tim, all versions I have of the Kreider C library docs, including the edited version from Dean Leiber's old site, have the same problem.
But looking at the sources for the library, it seems to return after the first <space> is found therefore skipping the word (skipword?). The position of that <space> is returned.

I have uploaded the revised manual to my FTP:

http:yaccs.info/BPIERCECOCO/Stuff/CLib-91 C Library Reference (Carl Kreider).pdf

Here is the sources for both skipbl and skipwd in RMA assembler:

 psect skip_a,0,0,0,0,0
 nam skip_c

skipbl:
 ldx 2,s
_3 ldb ,x+
 cmpb #32
 beq _3
 cmpb #9
 beq _3
 bra _7


skipwd:
 ldx 2,s
_8 ldb ,x+
 beq _7
 cmpb #32
 beq _7
 cmpb #9
 bne _8
_7 leax -1,x
 tfr x,d
 rts

 endsect


 Hope it helps :-)

I was going over the documentation for this library (I found it onRTSI). I discovered an error.The man pages for SKIPWD and SKIPBL have the same text. Both describe SKIPBL.To anyone who might have their own copy of the man page for SKIPWD: Ifyou have the correct man page for this function please forward it tome.-- --tim lindner"Proper User Policy apparently means Simon Says."-- Coco mailing listCoco at maltedmedia.comhttps://pairlist5.pair.net/mailman/listinfo/coco
