LibAST 0.5 is now required to build Eterm. Hope everyone updated. By
the way, this fixes that old font-starts-with-a-hyphen bug along with
some compiler warnings the resulted from a change in the way the
ASSERT() macro worked.
SVN revision: 6407
Addition to last fix. Also, we're going to specify error messages
that *should* be shown and ignore others, not show all but a select
few. This helps with the status line issue.
SVN revision: 6338
Fixed a bug in libscream that caused remote screen sessions to be
resumed with, e.g., "-e ^Uu_" instead of "-e ^Uu".
Applied a bug fix from Bill Allombert <allomber@math.u-bordeaux.fr>
where I was using the wrong variable for loading the icon file from
disk.
Also fixed a problem where PrintScreen would cause Eterm to exit.
Pointed out by Laurence J. Lane <ljlane@debian.org>.

My own Escreen updates, primarily for devoting a dedicated buttonbar
to Escreen's use. This keeps Escreen from trodding on your existing
buttonbar, if you have one. It's hard-coded to bottom-dock right
now; we'll look at configuration later. :-)
SVN revision: 6308
Ran reformat-code on the tree.
Also merged in Azundris' Escreen patch. It's disabled by default for
the moment pending further testing, but you can enable it manually by
defining ESCREEN.
SVN revision: 6202
Added a server grab around the setting of the root properties and
background. Suggested by Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com> and Olivier
Chapuis <olivier.chapuis@free.fr>.
Also updated the version number in configure.ac for all those
mor^H^H^Hpeople using Debian unstable. :-) Fixed a few compiler
warnings too.
SVN revision: 5834
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>.
SVN revision: 5792
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
Fixed the problem where the wrong font would end up in your menus and
buttonbars if you enable multibyte support but don't have a specific
encoding in use. I also corrected a large number of misplaced
newlines in error messages; I think that was some Perl-fu gone awry.
SVN revision: 4980
Added a -a/--attribute option for passing config file stuff to the
parser on the command line. Also got the command line option section
of the man page up to date. I'll tackle the rest some other time;
it's late. :-)
SVN revision: 4820
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
I made several corrections to the terminfo entry noted by Thomas
Dickey <dickey@herndon4.his.com>:
- Removed cvvis. It wasn't actually supported and thus conflicted
with cnorm.
- Removed kf0, which conflicted with kf10.
- Added the CPR (u6) capability which I inadvertantly omitted.
I also removed the extraneous identities, keeping only "Eterm" and
"Eterm-color".
In a similar vein, I enabled the u8/u9 handshake while keeping the
ENQ (^E) response disabled.
SVN revision: 4773
Moved the HAVE_SAVED_UIDS define into a configure option so that the
FreeBSD folks will have an easier time with it.
Fixed "make distcheck" which broke at some point.
That X stuff in clean_exit() should only happen if we're debugging.
Nobody but me should have to deal with those random hangs. :-)
Added a patch for multibyte cursor support from Michael C. Wu
<keichii@iteration.net> and Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr>, along
with some other FreeBSD-related patches from Mr. Wu.
SVN revision: 4065
At the request of Snow-Man <sfrost@snowman.net>, I added the build
date to the output of --version. While I was at it, I also added the
RCS ident strings.
I also applied a patch from Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr> that
fixes XIM-related seg faults during clean-up.
SVN revision: 3919
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
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
Okay, everything seems hunky-dorey now. If you have memory debugging
turned on, exiting Eterm will give a dump of the leftover allocated
memory including where it came from and how much there is. You'll
also get a listing of all the remaining Pixmap ID's and GC ID's along
with where they were created.
I also added some macros to the debugging stuff in libmej.h so that
if you pass the --without-debugging option to ./configure, it will
optimize out all the ASSERT and REQUIRE goop. This will make it
harder to trap bugs before they cause problems, so don't do it if you
want to help development, but if speed is critical to you, give it a
shot.
SVN revision: 3294
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
Two more patches from Marius Gedminas <mgedmin@takas.lt>. The first
one allows for customization of the message displayed when Eterm goes
into pause mode. There are actually two; one goes in the titlebar,
and the other is displayed in the text window.
His second patch makes Eterm's behavior a little smarter when it
resizes itself. It tries to figure out which quadrant of the screen
it's on and resizes in the most appropriate direction. (For example,
Ctrl-GreaterThan on an Eterm in the lower right corner will cause the
upper left corner of the Eterm to move; the lower right corner will
stay put.)
Thanks again to Marius for saving me time by sending patches. :-)
SVN revision: 2912
The multibyte font size patches caused weird behavior if your
multibyte font sizes didn't match your regular font sizes for those
who don't actually use the multibyte support. So I fixed that. I
also fixed the XA_TEXT problem for people using old/broken X.
SVN revision: 2904
Dammit! I did something really stupid. For anyone who doesn't know
already, calling X from a signal handler is a NO-NO. The *really*
stupid part is that I already KNEW that! *slaps self*
SVN revision: 2745
Okay, first off I need to thank Marius Gedminas <mgedmin@takas.lt>.
Not only did he point out several issues, he was even willing to send
a patch. :-)
This commit includes Marius' patch which keeps MappingNotify events
from overriding users' modifier settings. It also includes a fix to
a seg fault that he pointed out when menus were loaded without the
menu imageclass having been defined.
He also pointed out that --pause tends to sit and spin, taking up 100%
of the CPU time. Funny how E-Cpu never seemed to get too bent out of
shape over it, but he was indeed correct.
Thus I have fixed it, and while doing so, I have changed the way it
works. It no longer waits for a keypress per se. Actually, it just
ignores the fact that its child went away and keeps right on taking
X events. There are a few exceptions though. Either ESC or Ctrl-C
will exit a paused Eterm. Any other input that doesn't have special
meaning to Eterm will be ignored. (Shift-PgUp and Shift-PgDn still
work however, as do any action bindings you may have.)
SVN revision: 2739
Okay, there are a few changes here. First off, I made multi-byte font
support the default now, as long as you have ISO 10646 fonts. In
order to do this, I made the default encoding type "Latin1" so as not
to interfere with 8-bit ISO 8859-1 characters. This means that if you
relied on the default multi-byte encoding method to be SJIS, you'll
need to update your theme files.
I also set it up so that Eterm will ignore SIGHUP, at least until I do
something with it (like reloading the theme or something).
I fixed the proportional font size algorithm. If there is more than
a 3-pixel variance between the minimum and maximum sizes for glyphs in
a proportional font, Eterm will set the size to 2 standard deviations
above the average width. This is so that they won't look so spread
out and ugly, but it still doesn't look perfect. Not much I can do on
that front...terminals must have fixed-width columns.
And then there's the biggie. I put in the ability to configure the
now-infamous font effects. I left a black drop shadow in as the
default, but you can now customize it via the --font-fx option or in
the config file using "font effects <stuff>" in the attributes
context. You can even use "fx" instead of "effects" for short.
So what goes in the <stuff> part? Well, you have several options.
To use a single-color outline, say "outline <color>". Likewise, a
single-color drop shadow is "shadow [corner] <color>"; "bottom_right"
is the default corner if you don't specify one. For a 3-D embossed
look, "emboss <dark_color> <light_color>". The opposite, a carved-
out look, can be had with "carved <dark_color> <light_color>". (Of
course, with those last two, the 3-D look will only work if you
choose the colors wisely.)
Those are all the shortcuts. The long way is to specify a series of
corner/color pairs, like "tl blue" for top-left blue, or
"bottom_right green". You can abbreviate using "tl," "tr," "bl," or
"br," or you can spell out "top_left," "top_right," "bottom_left," or
"bottom_right." If you omit a corner name, the first one defaults to
top-left, the second to top-right, and so on as listed above.
