Fixed bug pointed out by JC Wong <catalyst@gmx.net> where resizing a
window which had had transparency toggled on would reveal a black spot
at the bottom of the scrollbar.
SVN revision: 6340
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>.
SVN revision: 6336
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
Added a --enable-escreen option for those who wish to try it out.
Also fixed the compile with Escreen and profiling are both enabled,
and disabled Escreen debugging.
SVN revision: 6203
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
Reverted Charles Clancy's shading patch (from the 21st) since it
breaks 24bpp on Linux. Hopefully there is a better fix.
Fixed an ASSERT failure in the buttonbar redraw pointed out by
Laurence J. Lane <ljlane@debian.org>.
Also made multiple buttonbars work properly.
SVN revision: 6182
Redraw the buttonbar properly when moved. Spotted by Azundris
<hacks@azundris.com>.
Also fixed the display of underlining with fonts lacking descent.
SVN revision: 6166
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>.
SVN revision: 6152
Changed occurances of "noenc" to the correct keyword, "none." Thanks
to Laurence J. Lane <ljlane@debian.org> for pointing this one out
also.
SVN revision: 6131
Fixed a warning that got missed before. Also removed the colour
scheme that no one liked. I left it in the Eterm theme, though...just
commented it out. I also put back the old font lines and commented
those out too. The Eterm theme config file is intended as a teaching
tool as well as a theme config. :)
SVN revision: 5982
I think Ted made the right call for the wrong reason. I'm adding the
fallback value for CONFIG_BUFF so that people using the older libast
will be able to use 0.9.2. I'd like to get 0.9.2 out the door soon,
but libast 0.5 is far from ready. :-)
SVN revision: 5967
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.
SVN revision: 5900
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
While I'm at it, here's a patch to fix some escape sequence handling
under vim from Paul W Brannan <pbranna@clemson.edu>. This patch is
reported to fix problems where vim would come up with underlines.
SVN revision: 5338
Argh. I hate finding stuff like this after a release. Luckily, it's
not severe. It only occurs when --default-font-index is specified on
the command line. Symptoms vary according to how the compiler
arranges certain variables in memory.
Thanks to Richard Lowe <richlowe@richlowe.net> for reporting the
problem.
SVN revision: 5337
I got tired of having to maintain half a gazillion menus.cfg files
considering that the vast majority of them are identical or have
large identical sections. Thus, I took the m4-based menus.cfg from
the chooser theme and hacked on it a bunch. I can now regenerate
the menu files for all Eterm themes from a single source file using
the gen-menus script in doc/.
I also removed the comments from the theme.cfg files of all themes
except "Eterm" itself.
SVN revision: 5263
I noticed this when I tested the smoked glass theme, but I forgot
about it until Martin Tyler <martin@boo.org> reminded me. This should
fix the bogus calls to imlib_image_get_filename() etc. when using
transparency and shading.
SVN revision: 5091
Okay, first off, I finally found and fixed a typo with regard to the
utempter support on RedHat-based systems. I doubt it's ever worked
properly (sigh). Secondly, I added support for throwing Eterm's
termcap entry into the termcap DB on FreeBSD (and possibly other
*BSD-based) systems thanks to info from Kirby Kuehl
<vacuum@technotronic.com>. And finally, added in a patch from Paul
Brannan <pbranna@clemson.edu> to support some additional escape
sequences for vim.
SVN revision: 5044
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
Although I have yet to be able to reproduce it, I believe this will
fix Debian bug #104393. I don't think the lower parts of that array
were getting properly zeroed. :(
SVN revision: 4975
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
This takes care of Debian bug #101777. Somebody was bitching that the
0-15 colors could no longer be used as values for the -f/-b/-c/etc.
options. I don't remember that ever being a feature to begin with,
but it took me all of 5 minutes to make it happen, so I figure what
the hell. Here ya go.
SVN revision: 4858
Several changes here, many of which come from the Debian bug list or
from bug reports on IRC. First off, I believe I've fixed an install
issue with the bg/ directory. I also put an alternative acsc line in
the terminfo file to see if it fixes anything on Debian. (RH works
fine.) I removed the "main" context from all the theme files...which
is something I should've done ages ago, but I forgot.
I made a couple things options which were not previously configurable.
The proportional font thingie which shrank the character cell width is
now the --proportional option. The automatic window gravity on resize
is now the --resize-gravity option. Both are boolean, and both are
documented in the man page.
And finally, I added the kill() function to the script language. At
this point it can only take signals as numbers, but that's good enough
for now.
SVN revision: 4857
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
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
Okay, first off, I removed 3 scaled backgrounds. See www.kainx.org or
my post to enlightenment-devel for details.
Second, I redid the default bindings for the mouse wheel. Basically,
the wheel alone will scroll by pages. Ctrl+wheel will scroll by pages
in groups of 5. Shift+wheel will scroll by a single line. If you
hold down the Alt key, the same combinations will work the same way,
but instead of scrolling within Eterm, they'll scroll the application
in the terminal (by sending PgUp/PgDn and up/down arrows). This works
in less, bash, and any other application which groks those keys.
I also added a --without-mousewheel option to configure that will turn
off the default scrollwheel bindings. Of course, you can always use
action bindings in the config file to bind/rebind these any way you
like.
While I was at it, I found and fixed a bug in the handling of the
Alt and Meta keys.
I added a scroll() function to the script stuff which allows you to
bind keys/buttons to scroll up and down. While I was at it, I added
comments to script.c for each function you can use.
And finally, the config file parser was moved to libast.
SVN revision: 4806
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
Fixed the handling of menus larger than the screen, an issue noted by
Laurence J. Lane <ljlane@debian.org>. While I was at it, I also made
the pointer move along with the menu when a move is necessary.
SVN revision: 4752
Fixed several bugs in the saving of settings and the support of
scripts in menus. Also fixed the definition of term_name in the theme
files as pointed out by Laurence J. Lane <ljlane@debian.org>.
SVN revision: 4750
You can now create key, mouse button, menu item, and buttonbar button
bindings which trigger the parsing of a "script." I've thrown in a
few functions already to replace some icky escape sequences; there
will be many more functions forthcoming, although I don't know how
many of them (if any) will make it in prior to release.
The usage is pretty simple. Where before you might've said:
action string "\e]6;70\a"
you would now say:
action script "exit();"
You can call as many functions as you like per script. Use a
semi-colon (';') to separate each function call. If you only call
one function, the ';' is optional. If you aren't passing parameters
to the function, the parentheses are also optional. Parameters are
separated by commas and/or whitespace.
Valid functions currently are:
die(): die() is a synonym for exit().
exec(): exec() is a synonym for spawn().
exit(): Exit Eterm. Takes an optional exit code or message.
quit(): quit() is a synonym for exit().
save(): Save the config. Specify "theme" to save the theme
config. Also takes an optional path & filename.
search(): Search the scrollback buffer for a string.
spawn(): Spawns a sub-program. Defaults to "Eterm".
You will need the libast dated today to build and run this Eterm.
You will also need to update your themes.
SVN revision: 4748
Jeff Blank <jfb@mr-happy.com> pointed out that Sun's Workshop Pro
compiler defines __SVR4 but not __svr4__ or SVR4. This has now been
accounted for.
SVN revision: 4162
Added a spec file for Linux-Mandrake which was contributed (ages ago)
by Joakim Bodin <bodin@dreamhosted.com>. I don't plan on maintaining
this, so I hope he does. :-)
Also applied a menu change which I am hoping will fix an infinite
recursion bug in the menu system pointed out on SourceForge by
Jonathan S. Keim <jonkeim@princeton.edu>.
SVN revision: 4108
Applied a couple patches I'd overlooked in my inbox. Sebastian
Dransfeld <sebastid@stud.ntnu.no> added a config file option to
duplicate the behavior of the --buttonbar command-line option. He
also updated the man page, something I usually put off until just
before I do a release. :-)
I also went back and redid the way Eterm does backquote execution to
avoid a potential race condition.
SVN revision: 4083
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
As requested by Chris Morton <chris.morton@ericsson.com>, I added
support for the SunCut, SunCopy, SunPaste, and SunFront keys. The 1st
3 operate on the xclipboard-managed "ClipBoard" buffer. The SunFront
key will activate Eterm's "steal focus" mechanism.
SVN revision: 3891
Since someone wanted it, if no name is given but an exec line (the -e
option) is given, the name defaults to the first word in the exec line
instead of "Eterm-<version>". For example, Eterm -e ssh foo would get
the title "ssh". NOTE: Most Eterm themes already specify a name, so
this will not work with those themes.
SVN revision: 3886
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
bigfont/smallfont keys to change between two fonts of the same size (sabvga
and ansi for example), the screen wasn't redrawn to reflect the new font.
Now it is, and I hope I did it right or KainX will destroy me :-)
SVN revision: 3830
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
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
That should fix the crashes. Somehow I managed to temporarily forget
about pointer arithmetic. And somehow I thought trying to dereference
a pixmap ID would be a good thing. Sigh. I need sleep.
SVN revision: 3292
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
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
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
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
Several people have asked for the spec file to be in the tarball so
that rpm -ta <tarball> works properly. I've put it in there, but I
don't recommend doing it that way. I use /usr/local as my prefix, and
there's a good chance I'll forget to change it before doing a dist
tarball.
I also put some dummy crap in pixmap.h so that compiling without
Imlib2.h works again.
SVN revision: 2903
I think this --pause mechanism will be agreeable to everyone. You can
once again exit with any key (well, any key that has an actual
character/string associated with it by X...not Insert, Home, etc.),
but keys Eterm uses (like Shift-PgUp) will still work as expected.
SVN revision: 2902
Marius Gedminas <mgedmin@takas.lt> reported a couple of issues back
when he was on his bug-spotting binge that I didn't have time to fix
just then. Well, now I've fixed them. ~/.Eterm/user.cfg will now
be found if there isn't a theme-specific one; this allows you to have
a single user.cfg which specifies some options you want all your
Eterms to have.
Along those same lines, the action code now searches for duplicate
bindings and changes the existing one rather than adding a new one
to the end of the list. This allows bindings in user.cfg to override
those in theme.cfg (as they should). Also, bindings are added in
reverse order, so newer ones (like in user.cfg) take precedence over
older ones (like in theme.cfg) if there is a conflict (e.g., if your
theme.cfg binds "anymod button2" and user.cfg binds "ctrl button2,"
user.cfg wins).
SVN revision: 2901
Oops! The font size patch from the other day broke without multibyte
font support enabled, which meant the XFree86 3.3.x people were
screwed. Fixed now.
SVN revision: 2893
Patch from Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr> to fix multi-byte font
handling when the ISO-8859 font size doesn't match the multi-byte font
size.
SVN revision: 2846
Fixed an old rxvt bug in the handling of "\e[0m". I *really* wish I
had time to rewrite that damned thing. Such a piece of crap. Thanks
again to Marius Gedminas <mgedmin@takas.lt> for pointing it out.
SVN revision: 2780
Fixed a seg fault when resizing to one row while on the secondary
screen. I have no clue how that bug crept in there all of a sudden,
but thanks to Marius Gedminas <mgedmin@takas.lt> for pointing it out.
SVN revision: 2772
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
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
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.
SVN revision: 2714
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
Fixed a bug in the handling of resize events thanks to a tip from
Teodor Zlatanov <tzz@iglou.com>. While I was at it, I also fixed a
couple remaining issues with the popup menu system. You shouldn't
get any more cases where items remain selected after you've moved your
mouse off of the menu, or where a submenu would stay up even though
another menuitem is selected.
SVN revision: 2594
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.

There are now two different sets of settings you can save. You can
save user settings, which are the things that one would generally
consider to be user-specific (toggles, text colors, etc.). You can
also save theme settings, which saves *everything*, including the
stuff that user settings don't include (like imageclasses, menus,
etc.). Settings are saved to user.cfg and theme.cfg, respectively.
Also, Eterm will now detect if it cannot write to the location from
which it got the theme (i.e., a system-wide directory), and will fall
back on ~/.Eterm/themes/<theme>. It WILL create this directory tree
if it does not already exist.
Hopefully this will make more people happy. :-)

Quick little option -q/--no-input. It keeps Eterm from accepting
keyboard input, and keeps the window manager from focusing it. Useful
for log tailers and such, maybe. This feature was requested by
Peter Ward <than@ilm.com>. I will be adding an escape sequence to
toggle this.
SVN revision: 2398
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
Added a patch from Kimball Thurston <kimball@sgrail.com> for XIM. I
also added support for two new escape sequences at the request of
Cale Gibbard <gibbard@bfree.on.ca>. "\e]Pnrrggbb" can now be used
to modify the color palette at runtime, and "\e]R" will restore the
defaults. These are compatible with the Linux console.
SVN revision: 2323
I added accelerated scrollwheel support. I also added a #define in
src/feature.h for specifying the number of lines of context to keep
when paging up or down.
Also, we're back to the old behavior where home on input won't be
triggered unless the key pressed has an associated string value. I
went back on this because Shift causing a jump to the bottom was
really annoying when trying to Shift-PgUp or Shift-PgDown. Sorry,
Darren, but you lose.
SVN revision: 2270
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.

Added a new --pipe-name option to allow Eterm to read from a console
device/tty/pipe other than /dev/console. This is useful for folks on
Debian, where "console" messages actually go to the /dev/xconsole
named pipe rather than to /dev/tty0.
SVN revision: 2212
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.

Tom Gilbert <gilbertt@tomgilbert.freeserve.co.uk> spotted a fallback
issue with colors which I have now fixed. Tom, your e-mail address is
too damned long. Just thought you should know.
SVN revision: 2181
I did some optimizations for expose handling and full-screen redraws.
It will have a greater impact on those who don't use double buffering.
:-)

This fixes yet another resize-to-crash bug, this time with various
applications which use the secondary screen (mutt, mc, vim, etc.).
The fix is deceptively simple and does not convey the fact that it
took around 3 hours to track this bastard down. Credit to Marc Merlin
<marc@merlins.org> for first pointing this out and for helping me
track it down. And credit to Gray Watson for dmalloc, which has saved
my ass once again.

I'm still not done with the commenting work I've been doing, but I've
made some fixes, so I figured it was time to commit what I've done so
far.
I've added support for multi-byte selection/pastes from programs like
Netscape, thanks in part to a patch from Yasuyuki Furukawa
<yasu@on.cs.keio.ac.jp>. I've also applied a bugfix for pty
allocation on Irix from David Kaelbling <drk@sgi.com>, a display
bugfix pointed out by Valdis Kletnieks <Valdis.Kletnieks@vt.edu>, and
a fix for a missing menu in the auto theme discovered by someone on
IRC.
I've also added quite a few comments to term.c to help people grok
the parsing of escape sequences a little better.
SVN revision: 2168
Okay, I've added a new option to configure. --config-buffer-size=NNNN
will set the theme parser's line buffer size. What does this mean?
Well, this determines how big a line being parsed can get at any one
stage of parsing. So if you use %dirscan() on a large directory, or
you use %random() on a large list, or you simply have some very large
lines in your config file, making this buffer size larger will enable
them to be handled. The down side to this is that your Eterms will
appear to take up more memory. In reality they don't, since all that
memory gets freed, but it isn't returned to the OS until Eterm exits,
and the RSS won't go down unless part or all of Eterm is swapped out
by the OS. So you've been warned. :-)
For those who didn't go digging by themselves, what I added yesterday
were three new builtin functions:
%get(variable) Retrieves the value of a theme variable
%put(variable value) Sets the value of a theme variable
%put(variable) Removes a theme variable
%dirscan(directory) Returns a list of the files in a directory
Everything here should be fairly self-explanatory. The variables
are internal to Eterm. They will last until Eterm exits, so you
can refer to them in later theme files, unless of course you call
%put() with a variable but no value (which removes the variable).
Also note that %dirscan() returns only the filenames, not the
full pathnames. This is for two reasons: One, you already know the
path to the file since you specified it. Two, it enables handling of
directories with larger numbers of files since the path isn't
uselessly duplicated for each entry it generates.
These new functions will be the backbone for a new random background
system since the *.list files are rather clumsy in a lot of ways. I
am not yet sure how it will work exactly, but I know I'll need these
functions to do it. :-)

Fixed a bug in the menu code reported by Sung-Hyun Nam
<namsh@lgic.co.kr>. There's also some new stuff here, but I haven't
tried testing it at *all*, so I'm not prepared to talk about it.
SVN revision: 2093
Fixed a bug with background colors and proportional fonts. Also added
an escape sequence, \e]30;<filename>\a, to dump the scrollback buffer
to a file. You will not get colors, or bold, or underlining, or any
other rendering information. Just the text. Linebreaks will appear
as they do on the screen.
