Release Status: release

Description:
        This patch doesn't fix any bugs; it's just a minor coding cleanup.

        Bash's struct fd_map uses a 'long' field to count file descriptors.
        The rest of the code is inconsistent; sometimes it uses 'long'
        and other times (e.g. FD_BITMAP_SIZE, new_bitmap_size) it uses 'int'.
        It's more consistent to uniformly use 'int' to count file descriptors,
        since they must fit in 'int'.

Repeat-By:

Fix:
2001-04-12  Paul Eggert  <eggert@twinsun.com>

        * shell.h (struct fd_bitmap.size):
        Now int; long is overkill by definition, since this value
        counts file descriptors.
        * execute_cmd.h (new_fd_bitmap): Accept int, not long.
        * execute_cmd.c (new_fd_bitmap): Likewise.
        (FD_BITMAP_DEFAULT_SIZE): Now int, not long.
