I decided to dive into the code for the Bourne shell to see what I might be able to figure out about these builtins. In any case, this modified command is passed to the builtin command which is handled by the shell (Bourne shell) that we are using.

I know the tr command is used to translate characters. | tr \ \` bother! Reading shell scripts can be such a hassle sometimes.

Realistically we’re a few months away from having a full release though. Dylan has been making great progress with the recent merges from, though, and I’m hopeful that we’ll have something that people can at least try out in the really near future. I had really hoped to be announcing the release of Bugzilla 6 with this post, but we’re not quite there yet. The completion of the port to Perl was announced on September 15, 1998, and committed to CVS later that night.Ģ0 years later, Bugzilla is still alive and kicking, and about to get a major facelift that’s about 10 years overdue. Terry decided to port Bugzilla to Perl, with the hopes that more people would be able to contribute to it, since Perl seemed to be a more popular language.

The initial installation of Bugzilla was deployed to the public on a server on April 6, 1998.Īfter a few months of testing and fixing on a public deployment, Bugzilla was finally released as open source via anonymous CVS and available for others to use on August 26, 1998. Bugzilla was originally written in TCL by Terry Weissman for use at to replace the in-house system then in use at Netscape. When first came online in 1998, one of the first products that was released was Bugzilla, a bug system implemented using freely available open source tools. The first two paragraphs lifted from our Bugzilla history: The open source release of Bugzilla turns 20 years old today!
