- Added constants for standard file paths.
- Improved error reporting when opening the files.
- Used `Passwd::parse_file` instead of doing it manually.
- Removed all the calls to unwrap().
- Used `fail` to report errors and exit when possible.
- Improved error handling over all.
- Switched to argument parsing by `ArgParser`.
- Replaced panics by calls to `fail.
- Removed unwraps ignoring results of syscalls when clearing the screen
and flushing stdout.
- Added docs for 'noclear' option.
- The current implementation was receiving n arguments and was
considering only the last one as the TTY this new one checks that we
have at least one and always use the first one.
- Added constants for columns and lines.
- Daemon receiver a reference to stderr to setup error reporting inside
there.
Details
- New implementation of `id` inspired by BSD's one.
- Refactoring on `whoami`.
- Added few utility functions in `userutils` for getting processes user and group
real/effective ID and names.
Added docs do `getty`, `login`, `passwd`, `su`, and `sudo`.
Details
- The docs are from BSD's ones.
- Also added `ArgParser` to all of them and added a -h/--help flag
to all of them.
- This is the start of a revision of all of those commands.
Details
- The current implementataion the `whoami` utility relies
on a env var to determine the user. With this change we get
the effective user id of the context and lookup that id on
/etc/passwd.
- Added the Redox `libextra` dependency as it has some goodies
for error handling. This will allow to make this crate upto date
with `coreutils` practices.
- Added a new small `arg_parser` crate that was extracted from
`coreutils` as is now commen between `coreutils` and here.
