Description
In >ldd>tools>s>bound_admin_rtnes_.s$new_user.pl1:
change: entry options (variable);
alias_allowed = "0"b;
loud = "1"b;
cg: entry options (variable);
alias_allowed, loud = "0"b;
goto change_common;
cga: entry options (variable);
loud = "0"b;
alias_allowed = "1"b;
change_common:
whoami = "new_user$change";
and >doc>privileged>new_user.info
:Entry: change: 02/26/85 new_user$change Function: This entry point supports editing of user registration. :Entry: cg: 02/26/85 new_user$cg Function: This entry point is similar to new_user$change but is less verbose.
The "change" entry point sets "loud" (verbose) and then falls through to "cg" which resets "loud" (less verbose). This does not match the documented behavior in the info segment.
A "goto change_common;" is missing from the "change" entry point. It should be:
change: entry options (variable);
alias_allowed = "0"b;
loud = "1"b;
goto change_common;
cg: entry options (variable);
alias_allowed, loud = "0"b;
goto change_common;
