Bug #: 21
Priority: LOW
Subject: filexp (the shell script) doesn't do ~/ or ~ right.
Index: Configure
From: steven@mcvax.UUCP (Steven Pemberton)

Description:
	There is a little shell script spit out by Configure to do tilde (~)
	substitution on systems that don't have csh.  Unfortunately, it
	doesn't do ~ or ~/* correctly if your home directory name happens
	to contain a slash (heh heh).

Repeat-By:
	Say "filexp ~".

Fix:	You can change this either in Configure or in filexp itself as you
	see fit.

	From rn, say "| patch FILENAME -d DIR", where DIR is your rn source
	directory, and FILENAME is either filexp or Configure.  Outside of
	rn, say "cd DIR; patch FILENAME <thisarticle".  If you don't have
	the patch program, apply the following by hand, or get patch.
	Be sure to run Configure if you patch that, and reinstall filexp
	in your rnlib.
