ansi2html.sh dies on specific input. about scripts HOT 7 OPEN

Could you attach the diff in an email to [email protected].

Does the original version of the script before the recent awk change work any better?

Good question. The reason I came here to get the newest version is that I was using the older version, and thought I'd try the new one. So...

Nope, it also dies with this character.

I'll attach the diff --color (which is a .txt file) to an email to you, as well as the output html that is cut short.

Seems locale related. I can get new or old script to misbehave when I give it your UTF8 input, but with the locale variables not set. Though I can't get output truncated like you do. I presume there is an error message on stderr when this truncation happens? Are you running the script with a weird environment? If not what is the output from the command: locale

from scripts.

I'm just running it on qa linux box, I don't >>think<< that anything is weird about it.

jschlick@dvm-jschlick2:/usr/local/html(BGS-1516)$ locale
LANG=en_US
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US"
LC_TIME="en_US"
LC_COLLATE="en_US"
LC_MONETARY="en_US"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US"
LC_PAPER="en_US"
LC_NAME="en_US"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US"
LC_ALL=

(I've never used this command before, so I just blindly typed it, and this is the output.)

You're in an is0-8859-1 locale. It's unusual to not be in a UTF8 locale these days.
A probable workaround would be to set a UTF8 locale first like:

git diff | (export LC_ALL=en_US.utf8; ansi2html.sh) > blah.html

I'll work on making it more locale agnostic

from scripts.

Your workaround works for this case.
thanks for figuring it out, I'd have probably never gotten there (since I don't actually know what that export does...)

If you do make this more locale agnostic, please let me know, and I'll happily take the new version and apply it to the entire company here.

The latest version is now more locale agnostic. Could you try it out? I've not marked this bug as fixed though as I wasn't able to recreate your output truncation issue
