Use safe_print_string() to decode string defines before printing them
in --version output. This fixes Debian bug #143328, submitted by
Tom Gilbert <tom@linuxbrit.co.uk>.
Also removed '~' from the CUTCHARS compiled-in default. (It had
already been removed from the themes.) Makes double-click selection
of URL's easier. Requested by Laurence J. Lane <ljlane@debian.org>.

I would love to know precisely what combination of cosmic catastrophes
conspired to cause me to not do a test build before committing.
Thanks catalyst.

Fixed a little-endian bug with 24-bit XImages, added a bit to
init_locale() in an effort to replicate the behavior of the Athena
widgets, and added a -b option to Esetroot based on a patch from
Oliwier Ptak <supergrass@gmx.net>.

Patches from Paul Brannan <pbranna@clemson.edu>, Klaus Elsbernd
<elsbernd@dfki.uni-kl.de>, and Derrick Moser
<d2moser@calum.csclub.uwaterloo.ca> which appeared while I was away.
Fixes for mouse wheel reporting and reset handling (Paul), Solaris
portability (Klaus), and XIM (Derrick).
Getting ready to release 0.9.2 soonish.
SVN revision: 5745
Fixed a couple remaining bugs in 0.9.1, including that really
annoying problem people keeping whining about where Eterm won't build
without Imlib2. It will now. :P
SVN revision: 5543
All the docs and themes should now be up-to-date. Unless a
showstopping bug turns up in the near future, this is pretty much it
for 0.9.1. Now we just need some testing to make sure there's
nothing horridly wrong.... So you all can test while we finish up
the web site and the backgrounds. :-)
SVN revision: 4919
There is now a new mechanism for dealing with the background image
collection, including a new update script. Please read the newly-
rewritten bg/README.backgrounds for details.
Also, I'm trying to flesh out the Contributors list in that file, but
my memory isn't cooperating. So if you contributed one of the
backgrounds, or know someone who did, please let me know.
SVN revision: 4810
Finally got the selection stuff cleaned up. Hopefully this will be
the last time I have to deal with it for awhile. While I was at it,
I implemented incremental selection transfers. Unfortunately, it
doesn't seem like too many people support it. kedit doesn't, and it's
broken in Emacs (*grumble*). Works in gvim though.
SVN revision: 4784
VA bought some licenses for Insure++, so I've been using it to audit
Eterm. These are just the initial results of the collaboration; there
will most likely be more. So far things are looking pretty good. I
just wish Insure++ had more helpful messages. I'd really love to be
able to track down those reads/writes involving freed pointers that
it claims to have found in Imlib2....
I also had to try and make the build work without MMX. I did so; I
just hope it still works *with* MMX.... =)
SVN revision: 3895
Thanks to continuing help from Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr>, I
finally figured out the double-buffering problem people were seeing.
And as it turns out, his original patch was correct. So now it's
fixed. Many thanks for his assistance.
SVN revision: 3847
Fixed the error message bug I noticed. There's also a big5 fix from
Chung-Yen Chang <candyz@cle.linux.org.tw>, and I got rid of some
tiny memory leaks in the X data, the first of which was noticed by
zed@linuxpower.org.
SVN revision: 3844
Several small changes, like freeing pixmaps which won't be needed
later, reducing the default Imlib2 cache size to 0 bytes (we don't
really use it well), and an image path bugfix spotted by Teodor
Zlatanov <tzz@iglou.com>.
The big change, of course, is the disappearance of libmej and the new
dependency on libast, which is now distributed separately.
SVN revision: 3793
When shaded, rely on Enlightenment rather than X for accurate x/y
position information. This fixes a bug pointed out by Gnea
<gnea@rochester.rr.com>.
SVN revision: 3509
I'm working on some deallocators now. The idea is that when Eterm
exits and memory debugging is on, several routines get called to free
the in-use memory (menus, font cache, etc.) that we still know about.
Anything left after that would be either unavoidable leaks (like
environment variables...read the putenv() man page sometime...sigh)
or genuine memory leaks that need fixing. I'm down to about 4.5K of
leftover malloc'd memory now. Making progress....
SVN revision: 3295
Massive reorganization/rewrite to libmej. It should now be 100%
independent of Eterm. There still may be some gremlins in the memory
debugging code, so don't use too high a number with --debug....
SVN revision: 3282
Color modifiers for images now work once again. Please report any
problems you find with them as soon as possible; I want to get 0.9.1
out the door in the fairly near future since the TODO list for 0.9.2
is already sizeable.
SVN revision: 3241
I think I've finally fixed all those XPolyText8() errors with pixmap
support disabled. Solid color mode buttonbars seem to work now also.
SVN revision: 2907
My attempt to track down the strange X errors have revealed that a
pixmap given to me by Imlib2 is getting freed somehow behind my back.
Probably because this part of Imlib2 hadn't been tested before Eterm
was converted. =P
It doesn't seem to happen in XFree86 4.0; I'm wondering if XFree 4 is
smart enough to detect double-frees of old XID's and just ignore them?
Well, I'm going to have to add some debugging code to Imlib2 and see
if I can track down where it's freeing my pixmaps. But I have some
errands to run first, so I'm going to commit this for now. It
shouldn't actually change any functionality.
SVN revision: 2722
Added new shade/tint routines, including some done in MMX assembly, by
Willem Monsuwe <willem@stack.nl>. Thanks Willem! These should prove
to be faster than the old stuff, probably by quite a bit.
SVN revision: 2595
After getting sick of hearing people whining about the obscure error
messages that resulted from trying to build without pixmap support, I
hacked it until it at least built without it. I also added warnings
to configure.in so that people would know if that happened.
It's still not very happy running that way, which is something I need
to fix. But hopefully it will stop the whining.
Yeah, right. =P
SVN revision: 2590
Added the pixmap beveling support back in so that the glass theme will
work again. Once again, you poor 8 bpp saps are SOL.
I also added the icon support back in, along with a new built-in icon
courtesy of Brian McFee <keebler@sandwich.net>.
SVN revision: 2501
I fixed the problem reported by Joakim Bodin <bodin@dreamhosted.com>
with spawned processes. Also fixed Esetroot as reported by Wayne
Johnson <bigman1@alltel.net>.
Support for buttons higher than 5 was also added to the action
bindings code for those (like me) with IntelliMouse Explorers and
XFree86 4.0. :-)
SVN revision: 2494
This is the initial commit with Imlib2 support. READ THIS CAREFULLY.
There is important information in this commit message that will keep
you from getting screwed.
First off, support for Imlib 1.x is GONE. It is no longer supported
as of now. If you want to continue using it, do NOT install this
version. I tried to support both for awhile, but the code ended up
being way too ugly and hackish. Imlib2 is the future. And trust me,
when you see what we do with this future, you'll be happy for the
switch.
The good news is that most of the basics work. Transparency still
works, and the basic image stuff works. Most users won't notice any
major problems, so long as your Imlib2 is 100% up-to-date.
However, a few things still don't work:
1. Auto mode is a bit broken. You'll get X errors in XFree86 4.0.
Don't use it if you're running XFree 4.
2. Color modifiers for images don't work. At all.
3. Transparency shading/tinting will not work in 8bpp or lower. Life
blows sometimes. Sorry. Time for a real video card. :-)
4. The built-in icon is broken.
5. You WILL need to update your theme.cfg files. The borders on the
horizontal and vertical bar images were incorrect when combined with
the new anti-aliased scaling. The horizontal bars should have a right
border of 3. Vertical bars should have a bottom border of 3. The
menu images should have both right *and* bottom borders of 3. You can
either make those changes by hand, or use the --with-theme-update
option to autogen.sh. Your call.
I think that covers everything I've run into. I will point out that
I don't really take advantage of a lot of the Imlib2 features just
yet. My first priority is to make all the stuff that worked before
work again (or at least the important stuff). Then I'll work on
new features.
So there it is. If you're not ready for it, don't use it. But if you
are, I hope you like it.
SVN revision: 2478
Tint by number or color, and shade by percentage, are now available
via the "\e]6;2;" escape sequence. For example, "\e]6;2;shade;10\a"
will shade the background by 10%. "\e]6;2;tint;lightblue\a" will give
the background a light blue tint. "\e]6;2;shade;sa;30\a" will give a
30% shade to the scrollbar anchor.
SVN revision: 2370
Some further fixes for inline functions, 2 new winop actions, brand
new and improved profiling macros, some miscellaneous fixes for SGI
from Kimball Thurston <kimball@sgrail.com>, and more robust checking
in the pasting code.
SVN revision: 2235
Added a new option. -0 (that's a zero) or --itrans will invoke the
immotile optimization for transparency, so named because it works best
on windows that don't move around much on the desktop. It works even
better for windows that are sticky between desktops. So if you have
logging windows (running tail -f and the like) that are shaded/tinted,
you definitely want to have this. It will even benefit ordinary Eterm
windows, provided you don't move them around a lot. Eterms that do
not change desktops may be better off with the other way; Eterms that
are not shaded or tinted at all will not behave any differently.
Here's the technical explanation for those who are interested. The
old (and still the default) behavior is for Eterm to check to see if
any color modifiers are applied to the image_bg class, and if so, to
make a copy of the *entire* desktop image which is then shaded/tinted
appropriately. It then snapshots a portion of that for the actual
background. This way, if the Eterm window is moved, all the shading
and tinting will have already been done, so all it has to do is grab
another portion of the desktop and use it. However, this involves a
LOT of calculations (one per pixel of the desktop pixmap) on startup
and at every desktop switch.
The immotile optimization is intended to reverse that logic by
optimizing for windows that do not move (hence the term "immotile").
It takes the snapshot of the desktop pixmap and applies any shading
or tinting *after* taking the portion it needs. This requires much
fewer calculations on startup and when changing desktops, but the
entire set of calculations must be repeated whenever the window is
moved. This is fine for small windows or windows that don't move
very often, but that's not always the case. So it is to your
advantage to pick one or the other depending on how you use each
particular theme or window.
Two notes. One, keep in mind that the -0/--itrans option doesn't
*activate* transparency; you still need -O/--trans for that. Two,
this does not affect Eterms with no color modifiers applied to the
background. In that case, Eterm still references the existing
desktop pixmap to save memory.
SVN revision: 2191
This is the first public availability of the work thus far on Eterm
0.9.1. There's quite a bit of new stuff here.
* Added scrollbar thumb support.
* Completely redid the terminfo/termcap stuff. The terminfo file is
now compiled (by tic) and installed by default (unless you specify
--without-terminfo). The config files still say xterm, though,
because some programs (like SLang and GNU mc) use the silly algorithm
of "Is $TERM set to xterm?" to detect mouse reporting support in a
terminal. =P But if you don't ever use xterm, you can use Eterm's
termcap and just name it "xterm" instead. Thanks to Marius Gedminas
<mgedmin@takas.lt> for his patch that started this whole revamp.
* Added the kEsetroot script for KDE users from Dax Games
<dgames@isoc.net>.
* You can now configure the Home and End emulation via --with-home=
and --with-end= options to configure. The --with-terminfo option is
also new, and --enable-xim is now the default.
* Added a new image state, disabled, for when Eterm loses focus. This
is supported by all widgets (well, all those that could possibly be
on screen when Eterm lost focus), even the background image. So you
could actually have all your images darken on focus out and restore
to normal on focus in.
* Widget colors formerly dealt with as colors (menu text color,
scrollbar color, etc.) are now handled by the imageclasses. Each
image state can have a foreground and background color defined. The
current exception is the background image; I hope to add that later.
The foreground is the text color and the background is the object
color (for solid color mode). So menu text color is set by the menu
imageclass. And again, for unfocused colors, use the disabled state
of the imageclass.
* Proportionally-spaced fonts are now handled much better. They are
still forced into evenly-spaced columns (it's a terminal for crying
out loud!) but at least you don't end up with Eterm's wider than your
screen. :-)
* Home on refresh is gone, as is home on echo. It's now much simpler.
There are two options: home on output, and home on input, the former
being a combination of echo and refresh. Also, keypresses that don't
necessarily have corresonding output can trigger a home on input,
like Ctrl-End or whatever...ones that don't have special meaning.
Credit to Darren Stuart Embry <dse@louisville.edu> for pointing out
this issue and the one with "m-" in font names.
* I finally got around to re-merging the new parser stuff from my
work on the Not Game. Closed up some old potential behavior quirks
with theme parsing.
* Added a new escape sequence to fork-and-exec a program. Also added
a scrollback search capability to highlight all occurances of a string
in your scrollback buffer. Use the new "Etsearch" utility to access
it. "Etsearch string" to search for a string, then "Etsearch" by
itself to reset the highlighting.
* And of course, the biggie. Eterm now supports a completely-
customizeable buttonbar. Not a menubar, a buttonbar. It can have an
arbitrary number of buttons, and each button can perform an action,
just like a menuitem. So a button could bring up a menu (like a
menubar) or launch a program (like a launchbar) or perform an
operation (like a toolbar). Each button can have an icon, text, or
both. And you can have buttons left- or right-justified in the
buttonbar. You will eventually be able to have an arbitrary number
of buttonbars, but I'm still working on that.
As with any change this big, things could very easily be broken. So
beware. :-) I have tested this myself, and everything seems to work,
but I can't test every possibility. Let me know if you find anything
that's broken, and enjoy!
SVN revision: 2048
More fixes with menus and transparency. After you build this version,
check out the brand new "glass" theme at http://www.eterm.org/. It
looks sweet. :-)
SVN revision: 1905
I finally got around to implementing double-buffering, although it
seems to still have some issues with font changes. But if you don't
change fonts, it works great. :-)
I also fixed the multibyte font stuff with help from Sung-Hyun Nam
<namsh@lgic.co.kr>. There seem to be some new issues here, though,
with the background pixmap. But I'm to tired to look deeper tonight.
SVN revision: 1588
I've rewritten almost the entire scrollbar. It mostly works, but it
still has issues. I've put an #error directive in so that it won't
compile; take it out if you *really* wanna try it. It's much more
efficient than before.
SVN revision: 1333
You can now apply additional color modifiers to the various widgets
in transparent mode that further modify the background. So, in other
words, you could have a scrollbar anchor that, in the normal state,
is darker than the transparent background, and in selected/clicked
state, is brighter. Or any variation on that theme. :-)
Once you've got this version going, try the following changes to your
trans theme's config file:
begin image
type anchor
mode trans allow image trans auto
state normal
file bar_vertical_1.png
geom :scale
border 3 3 2 2
cmod image 192
bevel up 1 1 1 1
state selected
file bar_vertical_2.png
geom :scale
border 3 3 2 2
cmod image 320
bevel up 1 1 1 1
end image
You'll see what I'm talking about. :-)
SVN revision: 1043
Fixed a couple problems pointed out by Joel Lesher
<filgy@blazenet.net> and Rahsheen Porter <strider@cipher.neuplanet.cx>
regarding tinted/shaded transparency and a typo in the auto mode
theme file. Doh!
SVN revision: 1038
Nothing really important here. I may have fixed the refresh problem
that a lot of people see when switching desktops and IRC-ing in an
Eterm, but I'm not sure. And I have once again discovered (well,
re-discovered actually) that the remaining bits of rxvt code in the
scrollbar are smelly piles of poop that I really need to get around
to fixing one of these days.
SVN revision: 1032
I fixed the popup scrollbar bug with transparency, but I fixed lots
more than that. I removed a lot of duplicate event handling, lots of
duplicate redraws, and lots of unnecessary transparency updates. In
doing so, I fixed the latency problem people had been reporting with
several shaded/tinted transparent Eterms while changing desktops. I
also threw solid color transparency support in the mix while I was at
it. All in all, you should notice significant speedups in transparent
Eterms.
SVN revision: 1031
Fixed lots of issues revealed by the -ansi -pedantic flags. The only
warnings you get with those flags now are implicit declaration
warnings for non-ANSI functions and warnings specific to certain OS's
and their non-ANSI implementations of ANSI functions, neither of
which I can do much about. :-)
SVN revision: 1010
Lots of cleanups here, including a couple fixes for bugs noticed by
Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@tomgilbert.freeserve.co.uk> and Martin Tyler
<martin@boo.org>. Also removed the requirement of glibc 2.1 for using
SVR4-style pty's (/dev/pts/*) under Linux.
SVN revision: 798
Shaved off around 100 KB of memory usage per Eterm by moving more
code into the shared library, removing lots of unneeded variables, and
fixing some small leaks here and there.
SVN revision: 710
Auto mode has been fixed to work with the newest E. If you don't have
the newest E, it won't work. So don't bug me about it; just upgrade.
Your version of E must be dated October 7th or later, or all bets are
off.
I also cleaned up some stuff to save lots of unnecessary redraws and
(if you're in auto mode) E IPC transactions.
A bug in the value set for $IFS was also fixed. Thanks to Kimball
Thurston <kimball@sgrail.com> for pointing out my oversight.
Furthermore, I added a parameter to the --enable-multi-charset option
for configure. You can now specify =utf-8 to get UTF-8 fonts for the
multi-byte mode stuff. If you pass =kanji (or no value at all), you
will still get the old Kanji fonts. If you use multi-byte Eterm and
have a set of fonts for other setups (Big 5, Cyrillic, etc.), please
let me know and I'll add a parameter for those too.
SVN revision: 706
Auto mode lives. Still a little flaky with the submenu pixmap, but
everything else seems to work peachily. It requires an Enlightenment
themes that contains the needed imageclasses, but that's not hard to
do. Here are the classes you need:
ETERM_BG Background image
ETERM_ARROW_UP Up arrow
ETERM_ARROW_DOWN Down arrow
ETERM_ARROW_LEFT Left arrow (for future use)
ETERM_ARROW_RIGHT Right arrow (for future use)
ETERM_TROUGH Scrollbar trough
ETERM_ANCHOR Scrollbar anchor
ETERM_MENU_BOX Menu background
ETERM_MENU_ITEM Menu item
ETERM_MENU_SUBMENU Submenu item
Currently, ETERM_MENU_BOX doesn't work; Eterm uses ETERM_MENU_ITEM
instead. This is a design issue I have to fix. :-) Everything else,
however, should work as noted above.
SVN revision: 387
Lots of changes here. First off, this should fix the background draw
bug with transparency that several people pointed out. While I was
at it, I also cleaned up a lot of other related stuff. Three-state
images should be a lot more robust now.
Then again, some stuff may be broken entirely from this, so let me
know. :-)
For one thing, the various image modes should work as expected now.
You can allow and disallow modes for the various widgets. The
fallback mode is "solid" now, rather than "image," so you can cause
a certain widget to refuse to use an image if you want to. If you
specify an image without specifying a "mode" line that allows the
"image" mode, your image will not appear. <-- READ THIS TWICE! I
had to go back and fix all the theme files because of this, so you
will need to remove your current theme directory and allow Eterm's
"make install" to put the new ones in place; otherwise, everything
will go back to being solid colors. =]
Anytime something changes this drastically, there are bound to be
problems. Let me know if you find any of them. :)
