Havoc Pennington 8e3a3eef63 Add new files.
2000-10-09  Havoc Pennington  <hp@redhat.com>

        * Makefile.am, tests/Makefile.am: Add new files.

	* tests/spawn-test.c, tests/shell-test.c: new tests for
	the shell/spawn stuff

	* gutils.c (g_find_program_in_path): convert a relative
	program name into an absolute pathname to an existing
	executable

	* gspawn.h, gspawn.c: New fork/exec API

	* gshell.h, gshell.c: Shell-related utilities, at the moment
	simply routines to parse argv and quote/unquote strings

	* guniprop.c (g_unichar_isspace): Return TRUE for the
	ASCII space characters isspace() returns TRUE for.

	* gfileutils.c (g_file_get_contents): Convenience function
	to slurp entire file into a string and return it. Partially
	written by Joel Becker.
	(g_file_test): file test function

/* g_parse_argv() does a semi-arbitrary weird subset of the way
* the shell parses a command line. We don't do variable expansion,
* don't understand that operators are tokens, don't do tilde expansion,
* don't do command substitution, no arithmetic expansion, IFS gets ignored,
* don't do filename globs, don't remove redirection stuff, etc.
*
* READ THE UNIX98 SPEC on "Shell Command Language" before changing
* the behavior of this code.
*
* Steps to parsing the argv string:
*
* - tokenize the string (but since we ignore operators,
* our tokenization may diverge from what the shell would do)
* note that tokenization ignores the internals of a quoted
* word and it always splits on spaces, not on IFS even
* if we used IFS. We also ignore "end of input indicator"
* (I guess this is control-D?)
*
* Tokenization steps, from UNIX98 with operator stuff removed,
* are:
*
* 1) "If the current character is backslash, single-quote or
* double-quote (\, ' or ") and it is not quoted, it will affect
* quoting for subsequent characters up to the end of the quoted
* text. The rules for quoting are as described in Quoting
* . During token recognition no substitutions will be actually
* performed, and the result token will contain exactly the
* characters that appear in the input (except for newline
* character joining), unmodified, including any embedded or
* enclosing quotes or substitution operators, between the quote
* mark and the end of the quoted text. The token will not be
* delimited by the end of the quoted field."
*
* 2) "If the current character is an unquoted newline character,
* the current token will be delimited."
*
* 3) "If the current character is an unquoted blank character, any
* token containing the previous character is delimited and the
* current character will be discarded."
*
* 4) "If the previous character was part of a word, the current
* character will be appended to that word."
*
* 5) "If the current character is a "#", it and all subsequent
* characters up to, but excluding, the next newline character
* will be discarded as a comment. The newline character that
* ends the line is not considered part of the comment. The
* "#" starts a comment only when it is at the beginning of a
* token. Since the search for the end-of-comment does not
* consider an escaped newline character specially, a comment
* cannot be continued to the next line."
*
* 6) "The current character will be used as the start of a new word."
*
*
* - for each token (word), perform portions of word expansion, namely
* field splitting (using default whitespace IFS) and quote
* removal. Field splitting may increase the number of words.
* Quote removal does not increase the number of words.
*
* "If the complete expansion appropriate for a word results in an
* empty field, that empty field will be deleted from the list of
* fields that form the completely expanded command, unless the
* original word contained single-quote or double-quote characters."
* - UNIX98 spec
