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. :-)
SVN revision: 2104
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.
SVN revision: 2090
The buttonbar can now be toggled on and off both in the config file
and via an escape sequence. The themes in CVS use Ctrl-Shift-Button3.
You can also specify in the config file whether to dock the buttonbar
at the top or the bottom of the Eterm window. You can't move it on
the fly yet, but that will come.
I also fixed resizing so that the term window didn't redraw itself
unnecessarily. Hopefully I didn't break anything in the process. :-)
Plus, I fixed poor handling of X-generated ConfigureNotify events, and
the terminfo stuff is now done at install time instead of build time.
SVN revision: 2077
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
Updated the menu files to include all the new images in the background
collection. Also fixed a bug with solid-color menus and menus where
the selected state was not defined.
SVN revision: 1949
Fixed a minor emulation problem pertaining to the down arrow on the
keypad thanks to a patch from Marius Gedminas <mgedmin@takas.lt>.
SVN revision: 1918
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
First commit of the new year! (Notice I didn't say the new millenium,
since *that* doesn't start until Jan 1, 2001.)
This should hopefully fix the bug where dead keys would bring up the
menu.
SVN revision: 1823
Finally fixed the seg fault pointed out by Tom Gilbert
<gilbertt@tomgilbert.freeserve.co.uk> back in mid-September where
small Eterms with little or no scrollback would crash when receiving
large amounts of data all at once.
I also fixed a clearing issue with double buffering, and I worked
around a really lame gdb/glibc2 bug that has prevented me from using
gdb with Eterm for ages.
SVN revision: 1804
I think I've finally got the menu behavior working right. Menus now
move themselves if needed, and exposes are now handled properly.
SVN revision: 1782
I fixed a bunch of double-buffering stuff here. I'm going to use it
by default on my own Eterms for awhile, and if I don't hit any snags,
I'll make it the default in the themes.
SVN revision: 1708
Oops. I intended to test without multi-charset before committing, but
I seem to have forgotten to do that. Lots and lots of people
submitted various patches for this, but I didn't use any of them. But
thanks to all for pointing out my error. :-)
SVN revision: 1603
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
Support for RedHat's utempter library and some other fixes. Thanks to
Erik Troan <ewt@redhat.com> and Tim Powers <timp@redhat.com> for their
help with this.
SVN revision: 1547
A good number of changes here. First off, since nobody reported any
bugs with the new font stuff, I switched the multibyte fonts over to
use it as well. They do use the same font index, however, in order to
keep the sizes matched up.
I also fixed up the modifier stuff so that Meta and Alt are matched
by KeySym rather than assuming Mod1. I also took care of the action
dispatcher so it would keep up with these changes.
To go along with this, I added 3 new options and config file
attributes which allow you to set the modifier that should represent
Meta, Alt, and NumLock. This overrides the automatically-detected
X server settings.
I also applied some fixes to the XIM code from Sung-Hyun Nam
<namsh@lgic.co.kr>.
SVN revision: 1482
Once again, I've rendered old themes obselete. :-)
I added a new config file attribute and command-line parameter. The
option is --default-font-index, but I wouldn't necessarily use it.
The config file attribute makes more sense. :-)
Anyway, your themes will now need to have a line like this:
font default <index>
in the attributes section. This tells Eterm which font it should use
on startup. (<index> is a number between 0 and the highest-numbered
font you define.) You can now have up to 256 fonts. Font 0 is no
longer necessarily the default font; it is the smallest font. And the
larger the font index, the larger the font should be. (Of course,
this assumes you want Ctrl-> and Ctrl-< to increase/decrease your font
size. In reality, you can have your fonts in any order, and those
keys will cycle through them in order.)
Before, font 0 was always the default, and you didn't have much
freedom in rearranging your fonts. Plus, you were limited to 5. Not
any more. :-) The new system is much more straight-forward, logical,
and powerful.
So please be sure to update your themes by hand, or remove your theme
directory before installing this new version. If your theme lacks
the "font default" line, your Eterms will start with the wrong font.
:-]
SVN revision: 1344
Okay, I think I have everything back in working order. PLEASE test
this thoroughly, as an awful lot has changed. Let me know what I
broke. :)
SVN revision: 1339
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
Some selection changes and escape sequence fixes. You can now
specify multiple color modifier commands in a single escape sequence.
You can also remove any existing color modifiers using "clear".
SVN revision: 1324
Two more bugs fixed. One, Trevor Powell <vulpine@zikzak.net> spotted
an issue with left-side scrollbars which is now fixed. Two...um...
ahem. Fixed the auto mode titlebar thing. *cough* Turns out I was
doing something stupid with my IPC window (i.e., not having one) that
caused E to ignore lots of events on my window. Oops, sorry folks.
raster has given me the cl00bat beating, so it's fixed now. :-]
SVN revision: 1314
Okay, I've fixed a lot here. First off, I fixed the bug Gnea
<gnea@rochester.rr.com> pointed out with toggling Max Size in E.
Turned out to be a symptom of a much larger problem, but it should be
fixed now. Then I corrected the XIM issues pointed out by Sung-Hyun
Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr> and Jerome De Greef
<jerome_degreef@hotmail.com>, as well as a stupid typo on my part that
Jerome happened upon. Next I fixed the bug Adam Lucas
<ALucas@wcom.net> spotted with changing the scrollbar type. While
fixing that, I also fixed changing the scrollbar width. Both
operations are a lot smoother and cleaner now.
SVN revision: 1292
All the settings should save now, so if something doesn't work or I
missed something, report it as a bug.
HOWEVER! Keep in mind that "Save Settings..." saves to a file called
user.cfg in the current theme directory. This means two things. One,
if you do not have write permissions to the current theme directory
($ETERM_THEME_ROOT), it will fail. Two, if you save settings to the
default (Eterm) theme, these settings will override ALL your other
themes! If you save settings to the default theme, you better expect
to get those settings everywhere, unless the other themes also contain
user.cfg files.
SVN revision: 1214
Several bugs fixed here, most notably a potential seg fault in
Esetroot, and remembering an Eterm's size works again. Also a minor
redraw speedup. And %exec() now works properly instead of just
causing Eterm to crash. :-)
SVN revision: 1153
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
Added an "auto" theme. So now the correct answer to the question,
"How do I turn on auto mode in Eterm?" is "Eterm -t auto"
I also finally got around to fixing (again) the version numbers in the
theme files.
SVN revision: 1034
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
(Mandrake)
I hate the default behaviour for tripleclick, and there's an option
to turn it off. however, it isn't documented in the default theme
anywhere. So, I fixed that annoyance and put it in the sample
Eterm theme.cfg file (set to the default value, not the OTW)
SVN revision: 990
This should get rid of all the warnings. If you're running Linux and
get warnings about setresuid, setresgid, grantpt, and unlockpt not
having prototypes, feel free to add the following lines to your copy
of /usr/include/unistd.h:
/* Linux- and HP-UX-only setres?id() calls -- mej */
extern int setresuid(uid_t ruid, uid_t euid, uid_t suid);
extern int setresgid(gid_t rgid, gid_t egid, gid_t sgid);
/* SVR4 PTY functions */
extern int grantpt(int fd);
extern int unlockpt(int fd);
SVN revision: 886
Almost all the warnings are gone. only 3 remain on my system at home.
two in command.c (where do I get proper prototypes for grantpt() and
unlockpt()?) and one in options.c that is bizarre:
options.c:3433: warning: `%x' yields only last 2 digits of year in some
locales
SVN revision: 871
Warnings begone!
Eterm/src/command.c still has two warnings but I don't know why
I didn't get rid fo them. there are still warnings in
Esetroot.c and in Etbg, but I'll fix those later.
SVN revision: 866
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
Added support for xterm's property change escape sequence as requested
by Greg Badros <gjb@cs.washington.edu>, the originator of the
sequence.
SVN revision: 353
Frikkin'...! Well, this should fix the text updating problem with
transparency, though I swear I don't know why it was crashing before
and isn't now....
SVN revision: 351
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. :)

Fixed a possible null-byte overflow in the menu code.
Also, there seems to be a memory leak in XLoadQueryFont() in some
versions of XFree86 3.9.x, so I removed the unnecessary "font" lines
from the themes for the time being.
SVN revision: 296
Worked around a XF86 3.9.16 (perhaps Xinerama) problem. Also added
some XIM changes from Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr> to handle
buffer overflows.
SVN revision: 274
Removed the tn3270 theme, which nobody uses, and added the cEterm
theme. You get the same colors as Alfredo's original script, but
without all the crap on the command line. :-)
SVN revision: 261
Patch from Sung-Hyun Nam <namsh@lgic.co.kr> for the theme files. Also
added a timeout for the backtrace attempt so that it hopefully won't
hang around forever when gdb decides to hang.
