- Patch #276 - 2011/10/10
* modify clipping limits for TrueType fonts to account for the
scaleHeight resource setting, to work around another problem
due to recent FreeType changes. In this case, the DejaVu Sans
Mono set to pixelsize=13.5 is truncated because the font
descent is reduced by FreeType to match an incorrect height
metric (report by Adam Lee).
* improve recovery when bitmap fonts are not installed, e.g.,
so that switching font-sizes works for TrueType fonts.
* modify lookup for XTERM_SHELL feature to allow relative
pathnames.
* modify abbreviation disambiguation check for command-line
parameters to account for -geometry, whose parameter may
begin with "+" or "-" (report by Scott Bertilson).
* Thu Sep 15 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #275 - 2011/09/11
* add ash, zsh to known shells for resize.
* modify resize to reuse the logic from xterm which determines
the actual logon-user's shell if $SHELL is not set.
* revert the unsetenv("SHELL") added in patch #272.
* an unsetenv("SHELL") added in patch #272 to help ensure that
luit would get the user's shell consistently did not work as
expected for cases where multiple names are in the
password-file for a given uid. That was because changes in
patch #157 to handle this situation did not take into account
that repeated calls to getpwnam and getpwuid return a pointer
to the same static buffer. Fixed the older logic to work as
intended, by ensuring that the passwd-data from each call is
stored separately (report by Paul Keusemann).
* adjust ifdef's for putenv and unsetenv in case only one of
those is provided on a given platform.
* correct comparison used in ExposeContains macro from patch
[#274] changes, to handle window-dragging (patch by Todd
Eigenschink).
* Wed Sep 07 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #274 - 2011/09/05
* portability fixes for cygwin: do not define SVR4, and work
around nonstandard header location.
* ifdef'd use of unsetenv from patch #273 changes to work with
Solaris 9 (report by Waldemar Rachwal).
* modify logic for XtAppPending to merge adjacent Expose and
ConfigureNotify events which are redundant (report by Edward
McGuire).
* fix an unneeded warning message when -r option is given.
* remove a few redundant entries from table used for helping
abbreviation-checking of command-line options, makes -geom
work again after patch #272 changes as an abbreviation of
- geometry.
* add scaleHeight resource and command-line option -sh as
workaround for some font-configurations broken by changes in
FreeType 2.4.6 (report by Miroslav Hodak).
* portability fixes for some configure macros: CF_FUNC_TGETENT,
CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, CF_X_ATHENA_LIBS.
* add configure option --with-freetype-config to improve
selection over the plethora of configuration options which
freetype has so far provided.
* build-fix for configure --enable-load-vt-fonts when
- -enable-widec is not specified.
* build-fixes for suppressing various features, needed after
changes in patches 270, 271 and 272 (report by Brian
Lindholm)
* Wed Aug 31 2011 pcerny@suse.com
- Patch #273 - 2011/08/25
* build-fix for out-of-tree "make docs" rule.
* correct a typo in x_strdup, from patch #198 changes.
* correct initialization for -e option, broken in patch #272
changes (report by Gabriele Balducci).
* build-fix for out-of-tree builds to address minstall script
changes in patch #272 (patch by Thierry Reding).
- Patch #272 - 2011/08/24
* document limitation of Gtk in connection with xterm's -into
option, in the manpage (Ubuntu #806969).
* improve -into by checking for and using the size of the window
within which xterm is embedded, overriding other clues.
* modify logic for localeFilter resource to allow that to
include command-line options of luit.
* improve -into by checking for invalid window-id, and allowing
hexadecimal/decimal/octal values.
* improve keepSelection, adding the case where the highlighting
is cleared, overlooked in patch #230 (patch by Marco
Peereboom).
* improve command-line parsing to make abbreviate options work
consistently across xterm-specific versus standard X toolkit
options, and report cases where an abbreviated option happens
to be ambiguous. In particular, -d now works as an
abbreviation for -display.
* fix regression in command-line parsing introduced in patch
[#271] changes for Debian #629358, (Debian #637910).
* split-out new termcap/terminfo building block xterm+kbs for
configurability.
* modify terminfo file to reflect changes in ncurses for
xterm-16color and xterm-256color.
* modify minstall.sh, etc., to reflect the default default
class, $TERM and decTerminalID values.
* reword resize manpage to reflect the fact that $TERMCAP is not
set on all systems (patch by Alan Coopersmith).
* work around combined Xaw6/Xaw7 package in DragonFlyBSD which
omits the usual symbolic link to the preferred library name.
* further improve build-fix for termcap systems by checking for
some which are only partial implementations, e.g., termcap
2.08 in CentOS 5.2
* Wed Jul 27 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #271 - 2011/07/14
* omit permissions adjustments to pty on exit except for
pre-Unix98 ptys, since modern implementations handle this
(report by Sean C Farley).
* modify logic for switching fonts between UTF-8 and non-UTF-8
* encoding to not merge the derivable bold-, wide- and widebold
* values from the VT100 fonts. Also suppress warning when not
* using UTF-8 fonts if wide- and widebold-fonts cannot be
* derived or otherwise loaded (report by Werner Scheinast).
* modify menu-creation to suppress entries which will never be
used in the current configuration, rather than simply disabling
them.
* add resource printModeImmediate and menu item to allow print
of screen plus saved lines to a file.
* add menu item to allow runtime enable/disable of the
printFileOnXError feature.
* append a timestamp to filename used in printFileOnXError
feature, and restrict its permissions (request by Vincent
Lefevre).
* add a check when cancelling cursor-blinking, in case the
cursor is blinked off. Fix so that the cursor is repainted
without waiting for other events, e.g., keypress (report by
Ailin Nemui).
* add configure --with-app-class option, to simplify building
"xterm-dev" packages with filenames that do not conflict with
conventional "xterm" packages.
* corrected logic flow for DECSCL, which prevented the updated
operating level from being reported via DECRQSS (report by
Ailin Nemui).
* corrected default for brokenStringTerm resource to match
manpage.
* add vttests/dynamic.pl
* add runtime check for locale not supported by X libraries, and
fallback to XA_STRING in this case (request by Bryan
Henderson).
* fix a special case in configure script after no FreeType
libraries are found. The script was proceeding to check for a
usable configuration.
* add xterm+tmux building block to terminfo (adapted from
changes proposed by Ailin Nemui and Nicholas Marriott).
* improve discussion of faceName resource in manpage (adapted
from suggestions by Jens Schweikhardt).
* correct mapping of shifted up/down cursor-keys in termcap
function-keys mode, i.e., resource tcapFunctionKeys (patch by
Gertjan Halkes).
* update AIX case in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE configure macro to add
release 7.x.
* modify ifdef's in xterm_io.h for __hpux to force that to use
the hacked SYSV support in that file. This fixes a problem
with a non-blocking socket call (patch by Paul Lampert).
* improve filtering of desktop category scanning, to exclude
XFCE.
* modify configure script to work with systems that have both
ncurses (or other terminfo) as well as a real termcap library,
e.g., Slackware (report by Alan Watts).
* modify configure script to work around special case where
user's environment adds compiler flags to the CC variable
(prompted by report by Paul Lampert).
* amend change for Debian #110226 so that "-h" or "-v" options
cause an exit, rather than simply printing to stdout while the
window is displayed (Debian #629358).
* add response for DECRQSS which gives the setting for DECSCUSR.
* modify AllocateTermColor() to handle XtDefaultForeground and
XtDefaultBackground, which are not recognized by XParseColor.
For example, this fixes the use of OSC 112 when no explicit
cursor color was set (report by Ailin Nemui).
* handle special-case of KeyPress translated to popup-menu
action (Ubuntu #756273).
* Tue Jul 12 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #270 - 2011/04/26
* build-fix, e.g., for using imake on platforms which use the
termcap library.
* modify utf8 resource to accept a name.
* mention default for fontWarnings in manpage (report by Werner
Scheinast).
* split "UTF-8" menu entry into "UTF-8 Encoding" and "UTF-8
Fonts".
* gray-out font-menu entries when a font fails to load, e.g., a
bitmap font is not installed.
* improve behavior when there is no app-defaults file:
o set the toolBar resource to false
o gray-out the font menu entries where no resource is found.
* add configure option --with-desktop-category to allow
customization of the ".desktop" files.
* build-fix for the install-desktop makefile-rule, when the
source/build directories differ (patch by Loïc Minier).
* add menu entry and corresponding resource which can be used to
suppress all bold-fonts (discussion with Jan Engelhardt).
* make internal line-size value consistent with allocated sizes
of character and related arrays to ensure that bulk copying of
line data, e.g., in scrolling, accounts for the padding used
for pointer alignment (adapted from patch by Rajesh
Mandalemula, also reported by Ali Bahar).
* widen ifdef for screen-resizing logic from patch #176 changes
to send SIGWINCH to process group to include any system
supporting ioctl(*,TIOCGPGRP,*) (prompted by linux-specific
patch in OpenSUSE rpm package).
* add printModeOnXError and printFileOnXError resources, which
allow the user to specify that xterm will write the contents
of its screen to a file if it is exiting due to an X error
(Debian #280457).
* restore logic that made reverse-video apply to the scrollbar's
foreground/background, broken in patch #158 (report by Bryan
Ischo).
* amend some of the window operations parameter-checks added in
patch #251 for the push/pop title feature, to allow the
parameters used for window resizing to be -1's, which makes
the corresponding values ignored rather than using the
window's maximum width/height (report by Noah Friedman).
* correct order of initialization for translations vs fullscreen
resources to enable a special case which omits the Alt-Enter
translation when fullscreen is disabled (Debian #612978).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Thu Mar 03 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #269 - 2011/02/19
* build-fixes for imake (report by Heiko Berges).
* modify autoconf macro CF_PKG_CONFIG to work with cross-compile
environments (patch by Thierry Reding).
* modify MapToColorMode() to favor bold over underline, matching
the precedence used before patch #252 (report/analysis by
Nicolas George).
* add omitTranslation resource, which can be used to suppress
the default translations for these features:
o fullscreen
o scroll-lock
o shift-fonts
o wheel-mouse
* make the fullscreen feature configurable (Debian #612978)
o add it to the configurable list disallowedWindowOps.
o add command-line option -fullscreen to allow the feature to
be enabled at startup.
o add resource fullscreen to control whether the feature is
active or may be enabled.
* modify probe_netwm_fullscreen_capability for 64-bit machines.
Contrary to XGetWindowProperty manpage, that function returns
32-bit data packed as long's.
* eliminate copy of name resource, which was otherwise used only
to give the terminal-description name for the tcap-query
feature. Use the actual $TERM value instead, as derived from
termName resource, etc.
* eliminate an old inconsistency with error messages, some used
the -name option, while others used argv[0]. The latter is now
used consistently.
* improve configure check for rpath-hack, to improve builds on
systems where gcc will not search /usr/local/lib, etc.
* build-fix for Xaw3d configuration (report by H Merijn Brand).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Wed Feb 16 2011 pcerny@novell.com
- Patch #268 - 2011/02/10
* fix an inconsistency of the "Enable Reverse Video" checkbox in the VT
Options menu. This also removes a special case added in patch #217 which
limited the effect of the reverseVideo resource (Debian #603808).
* amend decoding of misformed UTF-8 sequences to avoid absorbing valid
characters as documented in Unicode 6.0 section 3.9 (report by Keith
Winstein).
* do not set urgency hint when window already has focus (patch by Dimitrios
Christidis).
* amend extended mouse-coordinate mode from patch #262 changes to include the
Cb button-code, which also may be greater than 127 (report by Ailin Nemui).
* ensure that underline-cursor is visible when an application happens to set
the background color (report by Christian Weisgerber).
* add feature for full-screen toggling using either Alt-Enter or a menu
selection (integrated patch by Dave Simmons).
* add missing logic to handle reallocation of FIFO index for the "UTF-8" menu
entry (report by David Holland, NetBSD #44344).
* add makefile rules docs-ctlseqs, docs-xterm, etc.
* correct typo in description of DECRPM in control sequences document (report
by Ailin Nemui).
- Patch #267 - 2010/11/20
* minor formatting changes to ctlseqs.ms to simplify a script which extracts
the feature information. See the results in Comparing versions, by counting
controls in the xterm FAQ.
* add docs-clean makefile rule.
* add copy-selection action (request by Timo Juhani Lindfors, Debian #588785).
* trim leading/trailing blanks from string used for "Selection" font-menu
data.
* trim leading/trailing blanks from color resource values.
* configure script improvements:
o add workaround for removal of X11 dependency from Xt's package file
(report by Robert Hooker).
o add workaround for removal of fontconfig dependency from Xft's package
file (report by Jeremy Huddleston).
o add workaround for removal of Xmu dependency from Xaw's package file
(report by Jeremy Huddleston).
o improve workaround in CF_X_TOOLKIT macro, checking for other possible
packages where Xt's dependencies may be given.
o prefer ${name:=value} to ${name-value}, since recent bash changes break
legacy support for that feature.
- Patch #266 - 2010/10/24
* add rpm and dpkg scripts, for testing.
* more fixes for Debian #600707 (report by Cyril Brulebois).
- Patch #265 - 2010/10/22
* fix a regression in fontname logic from patch #263 changes (Debian #600707,
reported by Vincent Lefevre).
* revert modification of any-event/any-button protocol from patch #263
changes. It interferes with selection using a shifted mouse button (reports
by Neil Bird, Bram Moolenaar).
* Fri Oct 15 2010 meissner@suse.de
- Patch #264 - 2010/10/14
* replace a null-pointer check with check for empty string in
xtermOpenFont, to eliminate a warning message from patch #263 changes.
* build-fix for patch #263 when toolbar is not configured (patch by
Chris Clayton) (reports by Robby Workman, David Wood).
- Patch #263 - 2010/10/13
* corrected initialization of "misc" resource values, to ensure that
xterm has allocated a copy of strings which may not have been malloc'd
by the X library (Debian #600129).
* modify handling of any-event/any-button mouse protocol; it now is
active with any combination of key-modifiers.
* add debugging feature showWrapMarks, which marks lines which xterm
knows are wrapped, showing where a double-click will select past the
end of a line.
* build-fix to address change in include-guards for Xlib.h in ongoing
Xorg edits (patch by Jeremy Huddleston).
* improve pointerMode by continuing to watch for motion events after
mouse tracking is disabled if the pointer is hidden (Debian #594856).
* further extend initialization for active-icon font to check if the
font was not loaded succesfully, to retry with font1, or as even
(if TrueType fonts are used) to use a TrueType font. The retries
are to help with cases as in patch #241 where the bitmap fonts are
not available.
* fix special case of active-icon used when TrueType font is specified
for the xterm window, from patch #261 change. In that case, the
default font's size was used for layout of the active icon's window
(Debian #591265).
- Patch #262 - 2010/8/30
* fix a case where changing the cursor color via escape sequences did
not immediately update the screen (report by Andreas Wagner).
* implement ANSI and DEC request-mode control sequences. The latter
includes the xterm-specific private modes such as the mouse mode. The
feature is ifdef'd with the rectangle operations since its decoding
overlaps that feature.
* correct typo in ctlseqs.ms for response of OSC 21 (patch by Kevin Schoedel).
* improve discussion of mouse tracking in ctlseqs.ms
* increase an array limit used in reporting mouse events (report by Ryan Johnson).
* add extended mouse-coordinates mode, allowing up to 2015x2015 windows,
using UTF-8 encoding (patch by Ryan Johnson).
* modify manpage hyphens to conform with Debian.
- Patch #261 - 2010/6/28
* fix regression in renderFont logic, from patch #260 changes (report
by Joseph Quinsey).
- Patch #260 - 2010/6/20
* modify plink.sh to work around problem linking to recent PCRE libraries.
* extend renderFont resource to allow deferred switch to TrueType
fonts without affecting existing resource settings (Debian #585620).
* modify configure macro CF_X_TOOLKIT to work around omission of ICE
library from ".pc" file (report by Miroslav Lichvar).
* change configure script default for --enable-broken-st i.e., the
brokenStringTerm feature) to normally enable it. If the corresponding
resource is enabled, this feature eliminates an apparent freeze of
xterm when sending mis-encoded data to the screen (Debian #584801).
* document in manpage some actions which were overlooked:
o readline-button
o scroll-lock
o set-8-bit-control
* undo a change to limit-check in ScrnRefresh in patch #257, which
broke fastScroll feature (Debian #584841).
* modify handling of brokenLinuxOSC and brokenStringTerm to also sound
the bell.
* add control/D and control/Q to controls which will cause early exit
from control string per brokenStringTerm resource.
* improve documentation of brokenStringTerm resource in manpage.
- Patch #259 - 2010/6/5
* modify configure check for luit to include new aliases for the program
(xterm-filter and bluit).
* add workaround in xtermClearLEDs() to account for Xkb's override,
making vttest's LED demo reset the scroll lock.
* filter out client-message events when deciding whether to hide cursor,
e.g., when using SCIM (patch/report by anonymous user).
* improve description of -bd option in manpage (report by Guy Daniel Clotilde).
* modify configure checks for PCRE and other libraries to use pkg-config, if available.
* amend change from patch #252, to take veryColorColors resource into
account when checking colorBDMode resource for TrueType fonts (report
by anonymous user).
* add vttests/query-fonts.pl script for demonstrating the OSC 50 font query.
* improve manpage discussion of Scroll Lock feature.
* improve configure macros CF_GCC_VERSION and CF_GCC_WARNINGS.
* fix warnings for "clang --analyze".
* change default for allowScrollLock resource to false, noting that
the supposedly unused key has been useful for various rebindings
(Debian #580946).
- Patch #258 - 2010/5/1
* add pointer-checks in ScrnRefresh to fix a case in rapid scrolling
where an empty record is fetched from the scrollback FIFO.
- Patch #257 - 2010/4/22
* correct ctlseqs.ms description of OSC 17 and OSC 19 (patch by Emanuele Giaquinta).
* corrected logic for menuLocale resource; the setlocale function
returns the original locale only when querying.
* improve filtering of translations resource, narrowing the scope of
the alwaysUseMods to address only the translations that would cause
a key to be sent to the host (report by Andrew Gaylard).
* change default value of menuLocale resource to "C", to work around
longstanding Xorg bug.
* modify handling of scrollKey feature to ignore XON/XOFF keys.
* implement scroll-lock feature.
* revise memory allocation in UTF8toLatin1() to fix an out-of-bounds
index (Mandriva #54531).
* compute value for first wide-character rather than assuming it is
256, fixes problem with -cjk_width introduced in patches 242 and 249
(report by Thomas Wolff).
* improve configure script:
o corrected check for _XOPEN_SOURCE for OpenSolaris.
o when possible, add rpath option for libraries in unusual places
o add configure option --disable-rpath-hack to control whether the rpath option can be added.
* modify AllocateTermColor() to separate initialization from control
sequences, fixing problem from patch #254 changes where enabling
allowSendEvents resource prevents setting cursor color on command-line
(Debian #572928).
* amend logic from patch #185 to not reallocate cell-array if processing
ESC % G to switch from UTF-8 if already in ISO-8859-1 character set
(report by Michael Koehne).
* fix to avoid calling XmuInternStrings() with zero count (report by Johan Bockgård).
* fix build when --disable-ansi-color configure option is used.
* fix build when neither OPT_TCAP_QUERY or OPT_TCAP_FKEYS is defined
(patch by Matthieu Herrb)
- Patch #256 - 2010/3/6
* add TerminalEmulator to desktop category files.
* modify sinstall.sh to ignore the "." appended to permissions by selinux.
* change app-defaults organization, installing UXTerm-color and
KOI8XTerm-color for consistent behavior regarding customization: color
(prompted by discussion in Ubuntu #421261).
* fix typo in minstall.sh from patch #255 changes, and add case for
/var/run needed for full path of utmp (report by Julien Cristau).
* minor fix to xterm manpage, remove a comment stating that margin bell
can be changed via the VT Options menu. That was replaced in patch #225
* add a "docs" rule to makefile.
* fix initialization of Atom used for XkbBell feature from patch 243
changes. Unlike the other calls to XInternAtom(), in this case the
flag telling X to create the Atom was unset (patch by Chris Adams).
* Thu Sep 09 2010 aj@suse.de
- BuildRequire utempter-devel
* Sat Feb 13 2010 jslaby@suse.de
- Patch #255 - 2010/1/21
* rename install.sh to install-sh in case suffix-rules might interfere.
* extend range for convertToUTF8 function to full 31-bits, to use with
printing, etc.
* improve manpage by checking for actual locations of utmp/wtmp files
(Debian #562640).
* modify configure macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE to remove -D's before adding the
same name rather than relying on -U's, to reduce redefinition warnings
for some platforms that have conflicting definitions in headers.
* correct logic used to switch to alternate screen using FIFO-lines
configuration (Debian #565772).
* update config.guess, config.sub
* Fri Jan 15 2010 meissner@suse.de
- Patch #254 - 2010/1/6
* add a configure-check to eliminate install-ti rule from Makefile
when the system has no tic (terminfo compiler) program. This lets
one use the install-full rule more consistently.
* amend change to WriteText() function in patch #252 to take into
account the colorAttrMode resource (report by Krzysztof Kotlenga).
* document titleModes resource in manpage, added in patch #252.
* modify tcap-query table entries for shifted up/down cursor keys
to match ncurses convention.
* improve lookup of termcap-query data, allowing for duplicate
keycodes versus missing entries.
* add control sequence which can be used to modify the terminal data
used for the termcap-keyboard.
* improve portability of tcap-query feature, using terminfo functions
in preference to termcap on systems having terminfo.
* improve font-setting/querying control (OSC 50):
o when TrueType font is selected, the TrueType faceName will
be set, rather than the bitmap font.
o when TrueType font is selected, querying returns the name
of the TrueType font.
o querying a font recognizes the relative-font convention that
setting a font could use.
* add menu-entry for allowColorOps.
* add new resources for fine-tuning menu entries: allowColorOps,
disallowedColorOps, disallowedFontOps and disallowedTcapOps.
* correct logic for disabling the "TrueType Fonts" menu item; it
was not ensuring that the faceName resource value was non-empty.
* implement VT520-style controls DECSMBV and DECSWBV for setting
the margin- and warning-bell volume.
* fix a minor error from patch #243 which made the zIconBeep feature
use a minor-error tone rather than an informational tone.
* add a null-pointer check for the case where renderFont resource is
true, but faceName resource is unset, used in logic to strip "xft:"
prefix from patch #251 changes (patch by Michael Riepe).
* add special case to configure CF_XOPEN_SOURCE macro to use
extensions on Darwin (patch by Dennis Preiser).
* improve configure checks for regular expressions header and library
* update config.guess, config.sub
- Patch #253 - 2009/12/10
* add a null-pointer check in getPrinterFlags() per changes in patch #252.
* add a null-pointer check, needed in UTF-8 mode for Xft fonts after
changes in patch #252 (patch by Alan Coopersmith).
* correct size when clearing struct for tek4014 (patch by Jochen Voss).
* parenthesize expression in MoreRows macro, fixing a limit check
added in patch #251 (Debian #560039).
- Patch #252 - 2009/12/7
* modify title-querying logic to support retrieval of titles encoded using UTF-8.
* add new "title-modes" control sequence for controlling whether
window/icon titles can be set or queried using UTF-8, optionally
encoded in a hexadecimal string.
* use mkdir -p rather than mkdirs.sh (prompted by discussion of mawk
by Aleksey Cheusov).
* add appropriate copyright/license notices to the bulk of files
lacking same, and modify to use identical terms in others which used
different wording. The main exceptions are the files contributed
by Markus Kuhn, who appears to prefer public domain distribution,
noting that I have modified/improved several of these without
changing the terms of distribution (request by Jari Aalto).
* add control sequences for resetting the "dynamic" colors to their
default values.
* add control sequences for resetting the "special" colors to their
default values.
* add control sequences for setting the "special" colors such as
colorBD (bold).
* add overlooked case for setting highlight foreground color with
the dynamic-colors control.
* add OSC 104, for resetting ANSI/16/88/256 colors to default.
* reset ANSI/16/88/256 colors to default in soft/hard reset functions.
* strip "xft:" prefix from faceName and faceNameDoublesize resource values,
* add DECSCUSR (discussion with Andy Koppe).
* add check/warning on failure to load font, to see if the name looks
like an Xft pattern rather than XLFD. This can happen if someone
happens to modify their X resource settings for programs that read
data from xterm's namespace.
* modify handling of print and print-everything actions to allow
the various printer flags to be overridden by supplying parameters.
* add resource printerNewLine (request by Ovidiu Gheorghioiu).
* minor cleanup, finish using TScreenOf() and TekScreenOf() macros introduced in patch #224.
* improve checks in ShowCursor/HideCursor to get the background color,
particularly when highlightReverse resource is used (reports by
Jan Engelhardt, Christian Weisgerber).
* correct checkVeryBoldAttr to omit comparison of foreground color
to special color values used for color<XX> resources (report by
Jan Engelhardt).
* make colorBDMode and colorULMode resources work with TrueType
configuration (report by Jan Engelhardt).
- Patch #251 - 2009/11/11
* add window-ops controls to push/pop icon and/or window labels on a stack.
* minor fixes to align termcap file with terminfo.
* add resource disallowedWindowOps, to allow fine-tuning of features
to suppress with the allowWindowOps resource (prompted by discussion
with Bram Moolenaar).
* add makefile rules for resize-manpage to pdf, etc.
* further improve limit-checks in select/paste (Mandriva #54531).
- Patch #250 - 2009/10/13
* add check and error-message for fonts that have no printable values
in the ISO-8859-1 range (Debian #542434).
* some compiler-warning cleanup, in particular workaround for
defective implementation of gcc's attribute warn_unused_result
(report by Bram Moolenaar).
* improve estimate of single-column width for packed TrueType fonts
by ignoring extents for codes 127 and 159.
* improve line-drawing for TrueType fonts which happen to have defined
glyphs which are not line-drawing in 0..31 by assuming they're not,
and just checking the existence of the Unicode codepoints. This
makes it more likely that the user can override a misconfigured
font using the "Line-Drawing Characters" menu entry.
* limit minimum cell-width for packed font to maximum-advance reported
by Xft. Some fonts are wider than that, even in the Latin-1 range
(Debian #550497).
* add list of direct-contributors in "THANKS" file.
* stylistic changes to this file to help scripted extraction of list
of contributors.
* correct off-by-one in okPosition fix from patch #249 limit-checks
which prevented double-click selection on the bottom line of the
screen (reports by Rajeev V. Pillai, Debian #550368).
* add -q option to vttest/256colors2.pl and vttest/88colors2.pl to
demonstrate bulk initialization of color palette.
* improve the workaround from patch #188 by enabling resources for
the 88-color model.
* document in xterm manpage the limited availability of resources
color16 to color255 as noted in patch #188 (Ubuntu #438850).
- Patch #249 - 2009/10/1
* change default for allowWindowOps resource to false.
* add limit-checks for result of visual_width() function, needed
from patch #242 and exposed by #244 changes (Debian #548321).
* improve limit-checks in select/paste.
* fix a remaining bug from patch #230 changes for displaying
multi-column characters in a proportional font (report by Chris
Jones).
* add new resource forcePackedFont and menu entry "Packed Font" to
control whether to use the font's minimum (default) or maximum width
when those differ. The workaround which xterm uses to accommodate
proportional fonts is not necessary with certain fonts such as
unifont which happen to store a mixture of multicolumn glyphs
(report by Chris Jones).
* fix an (old) bug which did not restart the timer for blinking
text if the only blinking text was temporarily scrolled out of view,
e.g., using the scrollbar.
* fix an (old) flaw in the delete-line operation where the text
which is scrolled into view while the display is scrolled up was
not repainted.
* improve delete-line and insert-line operations, retaining selection
when the selection does not intersect the deleted/inserted lines.
* fix an (old) off-by-one error when an application cleared above
the cursor position while the display was scrolled up, that would
leave an extra line of text uncleared.
* fix a similar problem where the double-size attribute would not
be reset when clearing the screen while the display was scrolled up.
* fix an indexing error which would occur if an application cleared
a line while the display was scrolled up and was also in UTF-8 mode
(Redhat #524503). The error was from patch #228 but more visible
after changes from patch #244.
- Patch #248 - 2009/9/11
* fix an overlooked adjustment for selecting double-width characters
in the narrow-character configuration.
* eliminate uses of XTERM_CELL and XTERM_CELLC where an appropriate
LineData pointer is available.
* correct expression in okScrnRow macro, making selections give the
length of lines below the visible screen (report by Stuart Henderson).
* correct logic used to improve performance of missing-glyph check,
which did not handle line-drawing characters (Debian #545220).
- Patch #247 - 2009/8/30
* add ifdef's and check for openpty() on DragonFly (patch by Alex
Hornung).
* correct calculation for size of line's data block, which was
sometimes off-by-one when configured using --enable-16bit-chars
(report by H Merijn Brand).
* fix indexing error in print-everything feature from patch #246
(patch by Ovidiu Gheorghioiu).
- Patch #246 - 2009/8/16
* remove obsolete logic for saving/restoring wrapping flags, which did
not work on 64-bit platform. Wrapping flags (stored in the
line-index) are now copied with line-data (Debian #541160).
* modify comments in app-defaults files to avoid problem with C
preprocessor used by xrdb (Debian #541603).
* restore special case in makeColorPair, needed for colorBDMode
resource (Debian #541089).
* correct SetLineFlags() macro, broken in patch #244 when recoding
to avoid gcc-specific bitfields (Debian #541236).
* modify initialization of screen buffers to ensure that pointers
align to int-boundaries. This fixes a problem introduced in patch
[#244] where the color- and character-arrays (stored after the
video-attributes in each row) might be misaligned (report by Rajeev
V Pillai).
* add limit-check in ScrnRefresh for handling saved-lines from the
circular buffer which are repainted on a screen whose width has
increased. To improve performance, circular buffer entries are
not resized (report by Rajeev V Pillai).
* correct type for CellColor (a late change in patch #244 to avoid
gcc-specifc enums made that unsigned rather than unsigned short,
for the 256-color option).
* fix typo in configure option --enable-16bit-chars (report by Rajeev
V. Pillai).
- Patch #245 - 2009/8/12
* correct a special case in saving FIFO-lines from patch #244. If
the screen was shrunk, xterm used the wrong amount for copying to
FIFO-lines, and then used this amount to adjust the current row
on the screen. That was both a visible defect (Debian #541109)
as well as a potential addressing error (Debian #541132, #541160,
and #541236).
* add clarification in xterm manual about the various allowXXXOps
resources, which are disabled when the allowSendEvents resource
is active (patch by Julien Cristau, Debian #531597).
- Patch #244 - 2009/8/9
* refactored storage of saved-lines, providing a configure
option to manage them as a FIFO (actually a circular buffer),
improving performance. Added configure option --enable-fifo-lines
to enable/disable the new feature (it is enabled by default).
* added fastScroll resource, to amuse people who measure terminal
emulator performance by cat'ing large files to the screen.
* modify check in readPtyData from return values to provide exit
on zero-bytes read from pty for FreeBSD, or eliminate high-CPU
in "xterm-hold" processing (discussion with Ulrich Spoerlein,
FreeBSD ports/136686). The check was originally modified to combine
negative/zero values in XFree86-3.1.2E, 1996/05/06.
* add configure option --enable-16bit-chars to provide wide-characters
with 1account whether they are double-width (report by Guilbert
Stabilo on comp.unix.shell).
* add capability for keypad-center (kb2/KA2) to termcap entry
for xterm-new, as well as xterm-8bit, xterm-sun and xterm-vt220
(FreeBSD conf/136336).
* change default for keepSelection resource to true (prompted by
discussion with David Muir Sharnoff).
* remove a limit-check in ptydata.c, allowing Unicode values past
64k to be displayed using TrueType fonts (Debian #458432).
* remove a vt52-specific ifdef to allow mapping F1-F4 to PF1-PF4
when vt52 support is not compiled (report by Olaf 'Rhialto' Seibert).
* save/restore line-wrapping flags when converting from ISO-8859-1
encoding to UTF-8 encoding, as well as when resizing screen.
* remove extra adjustment of position in fix for Debian #418324.
* modify default check for mkWidth resource to check for line-drawing
characters, which are categorized as double-width in Solaris 10
(report by Sebastian Kayser).
* add "print-everything" action (patch by Ovidiu Gheorghioiu).
* start refactoring scrollback data using new getLineData() function.
* demote recent change to Debian #252873 fix to experimental,
ifdef'd out as EXP_BOGUS_FG (Debian #522141).
* work around groff mapping of ASCII quotes using macros (requested
by Reuben Thomas based on Colin Watson advice, fixes Debian #378700).
* correct symbol used for default of allowWindowOps which was
DEF_ALLOW_FONT rather than DEF_ALLOW_WINDOW (report by Matthieu
Herrb).
* amend fix for tek4014 from patch #243 to make it only apply to
the Tek Options menu.
Patch #243 - 2009/3/28
* revert change to default for allowTcapOps (request by Bram Moolenaar).
* reallocate result returned by xtermEnvLocale() to avoid reference
to freed memory after handling menuLocale resource.
* fix an old (X11R5) bug in tek4014 for switching fontsizes.
* add resource defaultString to make configurable the use of "#"
when pastes of UTF-8 text fail due to limitations in the current
locale settings.
* make the set of selection target Atom's configurable by two new
resources eightBitSelectTypes and utf8SelectTypes, e.g., to use the
TEXT Atom in preference to UTF8_STRING (discussion with Stanislav
Sedov regarding koi8rxterm and the FreeBSD port).
* modify handling of TARGETS Atom by making it return exactly the
set of targets as those which xterm is currently providing.
* set MANPAGER and PAGER explicitly to /bin/cat in minstall.sh
to work around /etc/man.conf's with those variables already set
(report by ÐаÑÑÑÑиÐ&frac; СеÐ&frac;ÑÐ&frac;).
* improve error-checking of tcap-query parser.
* add check for keyboard tcap), which ensures that terminal
descriptions containing the same string for shifted/unshifted keys
will be seen by tcap-query as only the unshifted key. (This would
only happen with an incorrect terminal description).
* fix conversion for input event-state to modifier-parameter which
made tcap-query feature not work with tcapFunctionKeys (keyboard
type tcap).
* add "DEF_ALLOW_XXX" definitions to main.h to allow overriding the
default compiled-in values for "allowxxx" resources.
* remove check on bell-percentage added in patch #242, which
disallowed zero/negative values (Redhat Bugzilla #487829).
