program to read any file which is a valid crontab file.
The fix is based on that used in NetBSD and OpenBSD - we keep the
file open while the user is editing it. This means that files must
be edited in place. Cron attempts to warn you if your editor does
not do this. The fact that the file must be edited in place is also
noted in the man page.
This patch has been confirmed to work by atleast one person on
-security and has been tested locally.

a per program basis.
This has now been added in the following way:
* Harness the make header file that's specified with the -h argument:
- Allow the user to define $(OPTS) to specify make arguments that should
be added to every program target.
- Allow the user to define $(prog_OPTS) to specify make arguments that
should just be added to the build of 'prog'.
* Make sure that $(OPTS) and $(prog_OPTS) are defined when looking through
each program's make file to determine which object files to crunch.
* When building the crunchgen makefile add $(OPTS) and $(prog_OPTS)
to the depend and build rules for $(prog_OBJS).
try to move the file from the source to the destination (spool) directory.
If that succeeds, much time and disk-space will be saved by doing that
instead of copying the entire file only to remove the original. This
could be a big win on machines doing samba-service or CAP-based printing.
Note that this is about the fourth or fifth iteration of the patch, after
trying to address all possible security implications of the change.

depends on this. This way we don't have some code using OnVTY checks
and other doing
strcmp(variable_get(VAR_FIXIT_TTY), "standard") == 0
checks. Also we need to set VAR_FIXIT_TTY to "serial" if we come up on
a serial console.
Also fixed a dialog problem in that dialog was used when dialog was
disabled causing some troubles such as not letting the cursor keys
work when exiting the fixit mode on media (ie. not the fixit shell but
for example fixit on a floppy).

process of making the script more cross platform friendly.
* Add -i option to automatically install files that do not exist
on the system already.
* Add the ability to specify DESTDIR.
* Allow the user to specify scripts to run right before the
comparison starts, and when mm is done. This will
allow the user to specify customized local behavior, and
implement features such as automatically deleting files.
* Document the above changes in the man page.
* Switch to using 'ident' for the CVS Id comparison, which
should help with portability, and makes it faster.
* Reorder, and in one case fix some code by doing things in
ways that make more sense.
* Check to see if the file exists on the system before doing
the comparisons. This saves CPU cycles, and streamlines
the auto-install process.
I used bits and pieces of suggestions and patches from various
people, ultimately too numerous to name. Which is not to say
that they were not both appreciated, and helpful in achieving
the ultimate result.
