*	Incorporate and use command-line-processor proposed for Guile core	Dale Mellor	2022-07-07	1	-3/+1
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	Since the elimination of the C wrapping around mcron and all the executable scripts, a weakness in Guile's (ice-9 getopt-long) module means that the command 'mcron -s crontab.scm' does not currently work. A replacement for the getopt-long module, as well as a higher-level 'command-line-processor' facility, have been pushed to the Guile upstream developers and are awaiting approval and incorporation. In the meantime, those modules are temporarily incorporated here into the mcron package, and the code is modified to use those local versions. * Makefile.am: install two new Guile modules * src/{cron,crontab,mcron}.in: use local command-line-processor module * src/mcron/command-line-processor.scm: new module * src/mcron/getopt-long.scm: new module * tests/schedule{,-2}.sh: clarify tests of -s, --schedule options
*	project: banish need for C compiler	Dale Mellor	2020-04-20	1	-7/+6
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	This patch gets rid of the thin veneer that we currently have around the three executables. This was done for historical reasons (circa 2003 Guile couldnʼt deal with process signals and forks). In fact these problems were fixed many moons ago, and there is now no need for it. The project becomes 100% Guile! Many files are affected; interested coders should use the GIT repository to understand the details of all the changes.
*	test: demonstrate incorrect -s option on mcron program	Dale Mellor	2020-04-20	1	-0/+82
	The option is supposed to be able to take an optional argument, but if the argument is not supplied (should default to 8) then the test, rather than failing, is skipped with a friendly message in the log file. The proper fix will come with an upstream patch to GNU Guile, and a future version of Mcron. * tests/schedule-2.sh: new test, new file * Makefile.am: make sure to run the new test file
