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.

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. :)

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. :)

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.
