the latest version of this file.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It began as a list of the changes that I made for xterm, using
|
|
the notes that I added when submitting a patch. You should note
|
|
that other changes were made as well, by other people, to fix
|
|
bugs and correct ifdef's for portability. Until mid-2006, most of
|
|
these were summarized in the XFree86 <a href=
|
|

|

<ul>
|
|
<li>mention <code>xclip</code> in manpage as an alternative
|
|
workaround for copying clipboard data, noting that
|
|
<code>selectToClipboard</code> (from <a href="#xterm_209">patch
|
|
#209</a>) is the recommended approach (Debian #639094).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct comparison in do_select_regex() of working position
|
|
against starting column.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct initialization for regular-expression feature of
|
|
<code>exec-selectable</code> and <code>insert-selectable</code>
|
|
actions (Debian #758633).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify logic for <code>exec-formatted</code> and
|
|
<code>insert-formatted</code> actions to ensure that the
|
|
formatting occurs just after the selection is received (Debian
|
|
#758633).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>account for state of reverse-video in special case of
|
|
cursor coloring (Debian #759734).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix a sign-extension problem in ReGIS support, as well as
|
|
correcting a case where ignored-characters were not really
|
|
ignored (patch by Ross Combs).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Enable the "Escape Sequence" menu entry when an OSC 50
|
|
is received. Also disable it if the escape sequence specifies
|
|
no font (Debian #760208).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve fix for the <code>fontsel</code> menu entry from
|
|
<a href="#xterm_304">patch #304</a>: because the recovery used
|
|
the "current font", it would fail if one first selected a valid
|
|
font, then an invalid font (Debian #760207).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct an off-by-one in limit-check for
|
|
<code>ScrnLimitChar</code> function (report by Egmont

Koblinger).</li>

<li>add <code>xterm.appdata.xml</code> (request by Richard

<ul>

<li>initialize the menu entry differently if the toolbar

configuration is used, i.e., enabling it without attempting

way in which the toolbar is setup, this attempt usually

<li>if the menu action fails, e.g., no font can be loaded

for the given selected name, then recover by resuming with

the current font. Before, the recovery went to the default

font. That was done to work around missing bitmap font in

button release in any-event mode. Initial implementation in

|
|
2013/01/09</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>fix a special case in <code>ShowCursor</code> where the
|
|
foreground and background colors of the current position are
|
|
the same. In that case, choose the further of the window's
|
|
foreground and background colors for the cursor color.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>alternateScroll</code> feature added in
|
|
<a href="#xterm_282">patch #282</a> to use either
|
|
<code>CSI</code> or <code>SS3</code> according to the cursor
|
|
keys application mode setting, to simplify using it in vi, etc.
|
|
(suggested by Dietar Roelants).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>revise manpage for <code>resize</code> to clarify the
|
|
changes which <code>resize</code> may make to the terminal
|
|
settings as well as to the terminal itself.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove code such as <code>struct ttysize</code>, used for
|
|
SunOS 3 and 4.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify configure script and makefile to check for
|
|
<code>groff</code> and suppress groff-specific rules if groff
|
|
is not found.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify ctlseqs.ms and makefile to work around bugs in
|
|
<code>grohtml</code> which cause ".png" files to be truncated
|
|
when producing html documentation.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify suffix rules for "make docs" to make the names of
|
|
the generated ".png" files predictable, helping to work around
|
|
longstanding problems with this feature of groff—none of
|
|
its releases work for <em>all</em> of xterm's tables..</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct typo in ctlseqs.ms for DECIC and DECDC; the
|
|
character preceding the final "<code>~</code>" is an ASCII
|
|
single-quote "<code>'</code>" rather than a space (report by
|
|
Paul LeoNerd Evans).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>update CF_GCC_VERSION macro, handling both Debian and
|
|
Darwin.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve configure script checks for the
|
|
<code>--with-desktop-category</code> option. After <a href=
|
|
"#xterm_280">patch #280</a> changes, if no value was given for
|
|
this option, and no existing desktop files found for
|
|
comparison, the incorrect "auto" value was passed into the
|
|
generated desktop file (report by Julien Cristau).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify sample build-scripts to disable check for
|
|
<code>imake</code> due to code-rot in Xorg.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add <code>-v</code> command-line option to
|
|
<code>resize</code>, reporting the same version string as
|
|
<code>xterm</code> and the two shell-wrappers.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make name-transformation apply to other occurrences of
|
|
<code>resize</code>, other manpages.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>special-case the name-transformation in xterm's manpage in
|
|
the NAME section so that the result works with
|
|
<code>makewhatis</code> (report by Julien Cristau).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify install-rules for manpages to put each program's
|
|
respective transformed name into the header rather than
|
|
xterm's.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove deprecated files: proto.h, os2main.c</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>minor fixes based on Coverity scan, including:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>correct caching of Atom value for the font menu's
|
|
"Selection" entry.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>ensure that utmp/utmpx calls do not depend upon
|

trailing nulls in the <code>ut_id</code> and

<h1><a name="xterm_287" id="xterm_287">Patch #287 -
|
|
2012/11/25</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>fix a case where in_put() loop could continue when it has
|
|
found an X event rather than the pty, causing the pty-read to
|
|
be delayed (patch by Balazs Kezes).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add option to <code>pointerMode</code> resource and
|
|
corresponding control sequences to allow text-cursor to remain
|
|
hidden if the pointer leaves/enters the window via accelerator
|
|
keys. Ordinary motion within the window restores the pointer
|
|
(prompted by patch by Balazs Kezes).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove special case of modifiers for the
|
|
<code>Mode_switch</code> and <code>XK_ISO_Level3_Shift</code>
|
|
from <a href="#xterm_223">patch #223</a>. Verified that the
|
|
conflict which this was intended to resolve does not happen for
|
|
normal compose- or modeswitch-handling (prompted by patch by
|
|
Balazs Kezes, Debian #638694).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify the handling of focus-change events to ignore those
|
|
whose detail is <code>NotifyPointer</code>, since those are
|
|
sent in addition to focus-change events directed to the old/new
|
|
windows having focus. In particular, this prevents the
|
|
urgency-hint from being reset inadvertantly (prompted by patch
|
|
by Balazs Kezes).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify description of <code>iconName</code> in manpage to
|
|
make it clearer that this resource does not specify the
|
|
filename of an icon (discussion with Ian Collier).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>iconHint</code> resource to allow suppressing
|
|
the built-in icon by setting this to "none" (discussion with
|
|
Ian Collier).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make <code>-iconic</code> option work with the toolbar
|
|
configuration.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct initialization of window manager hints used to set
|
|
the icon-pixmap. That detail from <a href="#xterm_282">patch
|
|
#282</a> overwrote state used to control the
|
|
<code>-iconic</code> command-line option (report by Ian
|
|
Collier).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix paste64 feature for the case where the selection comes
|
|
from the current terminal. The selection callback can happen
|
|
after the reply is partly built, making it necessary to flush
|
|
the reply-buffer to keep things in the proper order (report by
|
|
Ailin Nemui).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>reject command-line options which are longer than the
|
|
options in xterm's table, to avoid mismatches (Redhat
|
|
#875305).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct attribution for <a href="#xterm_282">patch #282</a>

<li>check for misconfigured <code>printerCommand</code>

specify an executable command (Debian #691642).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve check for window-manager name needed to establish
|
|
usable default for activeIcon resource. This works around a

older systems in the <a href="#xterm_280">patch #280</a>

|
|
|
|
<li>add clarification in manpage for

<code>alwaysBoldMode</code> and <code>veryBoldColors</code>
|
|
resources (prompted by Derek Martin question about using the

former with TrueType fonts).</li>
|
|

<li>add <code>alternateScroll</code> resource and corresponding

|
control sequences which modify the <code>scroll-forw</code> and
|
|
<code>scroll-back</code> actions: when the alternate screen is
|
|
displayed, wheel mouse up/down will send cursor keys (Debian

|
<ul>

|
</ul>
|

</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>scroll-lock</code> action to handle

|
additional color palette changes.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>SGR 38</code> and

closest entry in xterm's palette.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>extend <code>SGR 38</code> and

can be used to override the default icon used in

icon-themes.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>extend <code>activeIcon</code> resource to provide
|
|
<code>default</code> value which tells xterm to determine the
|
|
window manager's name and automatically enable the feature for
|
|
fvwm and window maker. The explicit true/false values can be
|
|
used to override this behavior.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add "mini" xterm icon, which scales better than the

|
standard xterm icon, e.g., for the gnome/kde "panel"
|
|
feature.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>extend <code>iconName</code> resource to search for icon
|
|
named according to resource value and use that if found. If not
|
|
found, use compiled-in pixmap. Both set the WM_ICON_NAME
|
|
property which is used by various window managers, usually for
|
|
window decoration.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>updated autoconf patch, adding support for --datarootdir,

<li>move call to <code>grantpt</code> before asking utempter to

|
<li>add four new actions for making the selection or data
|

directly copied from the screen (prompted by discussion in

Debian #637001, as well as report by Arjen van Tol):
|

<li>add <code>eightBitMeta</code> resource to control the
|
|
features which modify or interpret the eighth bit of a key when
|
|
the meta modifier key is pressed (prompted by Debian
|
|
#326200).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve discussion of <code>eightBitInput</code> in the
|
|
manpage (prompted by Debian #326200).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct logic for <code>alt-sends-escape</code> action,
|
|
overlooked when implementing <code>altSendsEscape</code>
|
|
resource, which still used <code>eightBitInput</code> resource
|
|
value.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add a workaround for <code>XAllocColor()</code>, which does
|
|
not actually allocate "a read-only colormap entry corresponding
|
|
to the closest RGB value supported by the hardware", but rather
|
|
a rough approximation (Debian #650291).</li>
|
|
|

<li>undo parameter checks for <code>RequestResize()</code>
|
|
added in <a href="#xterm_251">patch #251</a> and amended in
|
|
<a href="#xterm_270">patch #270</a>, because zeros also are
|
|
special cases (report by John S Urban).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify some test-scripts to use <code>/bin/echo</code>
|
|
rather than the shell's possibly-builtin <code>echo</code>, to
|
|
work around broken configuration on Mac OS X, i.e., neither
|
|
honoring the option nor flagging an error.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add SGR 1006, as a better technical solution than SGR 1015:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the responses will not be confused with line-deletion
|
|
and scrolling controls.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>the button encoding is a little simpler, since it does
|
|
not add an unnecessary 32 because the integer parameter
|
|
does not have to be represented as a printable
|
|
character.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>the control responses for pressing and releasing a
|
|
mouse button differ, allowing an application to tell which
|
|
button was released.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Besides these improvements, in discussion, it was noted
|
|
that urxvt's implementation of 1005 is incorrect, relying
|
|
upon a locale that provides UTF-8 encoding. In contrast,
|
|
vttest demonstrates a correct decoding, independent of
|
|
locale.</p>

</li>
|

<li>add support for urxvt SGR 1015 to address shortcoming of
|

SGR 1005 with luit (patch by Egmont Koblinger).</li>

<li>add ISO and DEC controls useful for left/right
|
|
scrolling.</li>

|
by Thorsten Glaser):

|
<ul>
|
|
<li>disable search for non-Unix96 ptys.</li>

|
|
|
|
<li>add/use/prefer <code>posix_openpt()</code> for opening
|
|
pseudo-terminal.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify special errno handling case in ptydata.c from
|
|
<a href="#xterm_158">patch #158</a> to allow for the
|
|
possibility that any platform may have special cases where
|
|
"/dev/tty" is absent. For example, this can happen in a FreeBSD
|
|
jail (patch by David Wolfskill).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add keyboard logic to map shift-tab into XK_ISO_Left_Tab,
|
|
which is usually, not always, done by the X keyboard
|
|
configuration.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>portability fixes for some configure macros:

|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>omit permissions adjustments to pty on exit except for
|
|
pre-Unix98 ptys, since modern implementations handle this
|
|
(report by Sean C Farley).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>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).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify menu-creation to suppress entries which will never
|
|
be used in the current configuration, rather than simply
|
|
disabling them.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add resource <code>printModeImmediate</code> and menu item
|
|
to allow print of screen plus saved lines to a file.</li>

|
|
|
<li>add menu item to allow runtime enable/disable of the
|

<code>printFileOnXError</code> feature.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>append a timestamp to filename used in
|
|
<code>printFileOnXError</code> feature, and restrict its
|
|
permissions (request by Vincent Lefevre).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>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).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure <code>--with-app-class</code> option, to
|
|
simplify building "xterm-dev" packages with filenames that do
|
|
not conflict with conventional "xterm" packages.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected logic flow for DECSCL, which prevented the
|
|
updated operating level from being reported via DECRQSS (report
|
|
by Ailin Nemui).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected default for <code>brokenStringTerm</code>
|
|
resource to match manpage.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add vttests/dynamic.pl</li>
|
|
|

and fallback to XA_STRING in this case (request by Bryan
|
|
Henderson).</li>

|
|
<li>improve discussion of <code>faceName</code> resource in

<code>tcapFunctionKeys</code> (patch by Gertjan Halkes).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>update AIX case in <code>CF_XOPEN_SOURCE</code> configure
|
|
macro to add release 7.x.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify ifdef's in <code>xterm_io.h</code> for

|
<code>__hpux</code> 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).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve filtering of desktop category scanning, to exclude
|
|
XFCE.</li>

<li>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 Andrew Watts).</li>
|
|
|

<li>modify configure script to work around special case where
|
|
user's environment adds compiler flags to the <code>CC</code>
|

variable (prompted by report by Paul Lampert).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>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).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add response for <code>DECRQSS</code> which gives the

|
|
<li>modify AllocateTermColor() to handle
|
|
<code>XtDefaultForeground</code> and

|
<code>XtDefaultBackground</code>, which are not recognized by
|
|
<code>XParseColor</code>. For example, this fixes the use of

OSC 112 when no explicit cursor color was set (report by

to suppress all bold-fonts (discussion with Jan

Engelhardt).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>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

<li>widen ifdef for screen-resizing logic from <a href=

in <a href="#xterm_251">patch #251</a> for the push/pop title

|
|
<code>modifyCursorKeys</code>. Setting this to zero allows one
|
|
to use the control- and shift-modifiers to construct function
|
|
key strings, for terminals using many function keys, e.g., for
|
|
<code>xterm-sun</code> or <code>xterm-sco</code>.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify screen responses and function-key logic to reduce
|
|
the number of writes made, to make it less likely that an
|
|
application would read only part of a function-key in a read
|
|
operation (suggested by John E Urbanczyk).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add <code>combiningChars</code> resource, which allows the
|
|
user to specify the maximum number of combining characters that
|
|
xterm will store for each cell in wide-character mode (prompted
|
|
by request by Markus Kuhn to increase the limit from 2).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve logic in <code>metaSendsEscape</code> in case the
|
|
Alt- and Meta-keys are mapped to different modifiers. That
|
|
allows one to use the Alt-key for shifting in the
|
|
<code>eightBitInput</code> and use a Meta-key modifier to
|
|
prefix the result with an <code><ESC></code>.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve <code>modifyCursorKeys</code> logic to prevent it
|
|
from modifying codes where <code>eightBitInput</code> or
|
|
<code>metaSendsEscape</code> are set (request by Dan
|
|
Nicolaescu).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve <code>modifyCursorKeys</code> logic to prevent it

from changing the user input when other modifiers such as AltGr
|
|
are used (report by Thomas Wolff).</li>

|
|
|
<li>extend <code>modifyCursorKeys</code> to include the numeric

|
keypad when in application mode.</li>

|
|
|
|
<li>corrected calls used for <code>--disable-setuid</code>
|
|
option, add debugging traces to help diagnose this area.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify configure script to ensure that
|
|
<code>USE_UTMP_SETGID</code> is defined only if the check for
|
|
POSIX saved-ids succeeds, or corresponds to one of the BSD
|
|
systems known to have a workable <code>setegid</code>

function.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>extend configure check for POSIX saved-ids to include BSD

<li>modify CF_SYSV configure macro to work with gcc on HPUX
|
|
10.20, whose broken <code><term.h></code> relies on

|
including <code><termios.h></code>.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change order of setuid/setgid ifdef checks in Imakefile to
|
|
make it simpler to produce a setgid install, allowing the

latter to override the former (prompted by an XFree86
|
|

|
<li>revert fix made in <a href="#xterm_203">patch #203</a> for
|
|
GenToo #90697. That introduced a problem with the control mouse
|

<li>fix a file-descriptor leak when calling
|
|
<code>openpty()</code> (OpenBSD system/4561).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make a special case of resizing work like vt100: a hard
|
|
reset also resets the 132/80 mode. The code to support this was
|
|
present since X11R5, but not used because the corresponding
|
|
initial state of the <code>-132</code> option was not
|
|
saved.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>restore window manager hints after
|
|
<code>XtMakeResizeRequest()</code> calls. One instance from
|
|
<a href="#xterm_205">patch #205</a> resulted in the window
|
|
manager displaying pixels rather than than characters after
|
|
selecting a different font size (FreeBSD ports/87424).</li>

<li>remove special case for Darwin in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE (Emanuele

|
|
to allow scroll-down to be sent while mouse tracking is enabled
|
|
(request by D Hugh Redelmeier).</li>
|
|

<li>correct size-comparison in HandleInterpret() broken in

changes from <a href="#xterm_201">patch #201</a> to allocate

<li>amend adjustments for scrollbar layout from <a href=
|
|
"#xterm_204">patch #204</a> to make this apply only to the

|
|
|

<li>modify computation of rows/columns on resize to avoid

<li>modifications to work with z/OS 1.4 (Paul Giordano).</li>
|

|
<li>improve error-reporting when chown/chmod of the

designed to work with old-style pseudo-terminals is not
|
|
installed setuid or setgid (report by Jeremy C. Reed).</li>

<li>patches from Emanuele Giaquinta:
|
|
|

<ul>
|
|
<li>ctlseqs.ms says that primary and secondary DA accept a

|
agree with this.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a comment in 88colres.pl</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>ctlseqs.ms says that the DEC Set/Reset control

sequences for the backarrow key make it send DEL/BS,
|
|
respectively, while it's the opposite.</li>

<li>work around quirk in shell which allowed user to "run"

uxterm script when there was no UTF-8 locale installed by

|
|
of bold font, when initializing the wide-bold-font data and no

"xterm+pcfkeys" terminfo entry to correspond to ncurses
|
|
20050430 patch.</li>
|
|
|

and the new text would be written with the same colors
|
|
(report/testcase by Thomas Glanzmann).</li>

|
|
|
|
<li>add resource settings for minimum/maximum input buffer

<li>several minor fixes based on Intel compiler warnings.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change default translations so a <code>BtnDown</code> which
|
|
is not recognized is simply ignored rather than emitting a
|
|
bell. That makes it less obtrusive when the user tries to use a
|
|
mouse which provides more capabilities than the X mouse driver

|
|
<li>modify the criteria for disowning primary selection.
|
|
Previously, this happened anytime the cursor was moved before

the end of the selection. That would ensure that any
|
|
insert/delete of char or line, as well as scrolling, would
|
|
disown the selection. The new criteria change this to checking
|
|
if the operations would modify the data which is highlighted
|

(Debian #277832).</li>

<li>add mini-luit feature, which supports Latin9 directly
|
|
rather than via luit, provided that Unicode fonts are used
|
|
(Freedesktop.org Bugzilla #1571, request by Stefan Dirsch,
|
|

|
|
|
|
<li>for Linux, if IUTF8 is defined, e.g., on recent 2.6.x

|
kernels, set the corresponding flag for the slave pty, to
|
|
enable UTF-8 interpretation of backspace in cooked mode
|
|
(Freedesktop.org Bugzilla #1578, request by Stefan
|
|
Dirsch).</li>
|
|

<li>modify <code>faceSize</code> resource to use a

floating-point internal value (adapted from patch by Sam
|

Stephenson).</li>
|
|
|

<li>correct handling selection of tabs over cleared space in

UTF-8 mode. In this special case, xterm represents the

whitespace with a null rather than a space character (Debian

<li>amend fix for infinite loop from <a href="#xterm_192">patch

Debian #233883).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>work around a newer bug in toolbar with XFree86 by forcing

menus to be fully initialized at startup. In older versions of
|
|
XFree86 and X11R6, it was possible to delay initialization of
|

the menu contents until it was popped up. (The longstanding bug

with XFree86 4.x layout for toolbar still exists, though).</li>
|

<li>modify default for configure
|
|
<code>--enable-pty-handshake</code> option to enable it for
|
|
Solaris (report by Nelson Beebe).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>in_put()</code> function to call
|
|
<code>PreeditPosition()</code> only when the cursor's position
|
|
has changed. This addresses report by Stefan Baums of high CPU
|
|
usage while xterm with chinput are running in the background
|
|
(patch by Yong Li).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improved explanation of <code>-ls</code> conflict with
|
|
<code>-e</code> option in xterm manpage (adapted from comments
|
|
by Henning Makholm).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct comment in terminfo file regarding modifier used
|
|
for <code>kDC</code> (Debian #189764, report by Henning
|
|
Makholm).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct/extend some of the keypad description in ctlseqs.ms
|
|
(report by Henning Makholm).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct keypad-mapping table in input.c so
|
|
<code>XK_KP_Equal</code> works (report by Henning
|
|
Makholm).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modified to work with CJK double-width (bi-width/monospace)
|
|
fonts. They're similar to Roman Czbora and David Starner's
|
|
gnuunifonts in that Latin letters and numbers have all the same
|
|
width which is exactly the half of the width of East Asian
|
|
characters. (patch by Jungshik Shin
|
|
<jshin@mailaps.org>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure option <code>--enable-broken-osc</code> and
|
|
resource <code>brokenLinuxOSC</code> to accommodate scripts
|
|
which do not distinguish between running in the Linux console
|
|
and running in X. Linux console recognizes malformed control
|
|
strings which start with an <code>OSC</code>, but are
|
|
fixed-length, with no terminator.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure option <code>--enable-broken-st</code> and
|
|
resource <code>brokenStringTerm</code> to allow user to revert
|
|
one part of the parsing table corrections from <a href=
|
|
"#xterm_171">patch #171</a>. (reports by Matthias Scheler and
|
|
Kirill Ponomarew indicate that someone's network firmware sends
|
|
an <code><escape>X</code>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify configure <code>--disable-imake</code> to provide
|
|
values for <code>OSMAJORVERSION</code>,
|
|
<code>OSMINORVERSION</code>, <code>FUNCPROTO</code> and
|
|
<code>NARROWPROTO</code> (report by Heiko Schlichting).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct <code>vttests/16colors.sh</code>, which omitted the
|
|
<code>$SUF</code> variable in output strings (patch by Paul
|
|
Gilmartin).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify shell scripts in <code>vttests</code> directory to
|
|
attempt to use named signals in the <code>trap</code>
|
|
statement, making this portable to OS/390 (report by Paul
|
|
Gilmartin). Tested on SunOS 4.1.4, which implements only

|
|
<li>move ifdef's for ttysize/winsize into xterm_io.h</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>simplify loop on <code>tgetent</code>, check if the
|
|
successive entries in the lookup table are the same. That makes
|
|
xterm do one less lookup if there is no "xterm" entry in the
|
|
termcap file (report by Derek Martin).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct manpage discussion of <code>$TERM</code> and

emulation and a note of the final "dumb" fallback.</li>
|
|
|

|
<code>XRegisterIMInstantiateCallback()</code> from <a href=

|
<li>modify configure-check for <code>tty</code> group to be

less strict in batch mode (report by Nelson Beebe).</li>
|
|

<ul>
|
|
<li>fix a SIGSEGV which could occur if xterm is connecting to
|
|
XIM server, and the XIM server is destroyed (patch by Nam
|
|
SungHyun).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify to use built-in line-drawing characters for Xft
|

fonts (patch by Andrew Tipton).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make menu reflect the state of the <code>tekInhibit</code>
|

|
|
|
|
<li>make <code>signalInhibit</code> resource work, i.e.,
|
|
disable the menu entries that would send signals to, or exit
|
|
xterm. This was probably broken in X11R5 when logging was
|
|
disabled (report by Sven Mascheck).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>changed classes of <code>colorBDMode</code> and similar
|
|
resources that override colors when a video attribute is set to
|
|
<code>ColorAttrMode</code>, to make them distinct from
|
|
<code>ColorMode</code>. This avoids an unexpected rendering of
|
|
reverse video, for example (report by Paul Fox).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>changed class of <code>veryBoldColors</code> to
|
|
<code>VeryBoldColors</code>, since <code>ColorMode</code> is
|
|
associated with boolean resources.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add option <code>-k8</code> and resource
|
|
<code>allowC1Printable</code> to allow users of non-VTxxx
|
|
character sets such as KOI-8 to treat the C1 control area
|
|
(character codes 128-159) as printable rather than control
|
|
characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add a null-pointer check for return-value of
|
|
<code>ptsname()</code> in HPUX-specific code (report by David
|
|
Ellement).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>revise the ifdef's used for <code>XKB</code> bell support.
|
|
The code was using a nonstandard call
|
|
<code>XkbStdBell()</code>. Changed to use
|
|
<code>XkbBell()</code> (based on patch by
|
|
<derek@signalmarketing.com>).</li>
|
|

<li>add a null-pointer check in <code>xtermLoadFont()</code> in

|
case there is no wide-bold font (Nam SungHyun).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change <code>Makefile.in</code> to use autoconf's
|
|
<code>bindir</code>, <code>libdir</code> and
|
|
<code>mandir</code> variables (report by Nam SungHyun).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add <code>le</code> to termcap <code>xterm-basic</code>
|
|
entry. Though missing from older termcaps for xterm, some
|
|
applications check for it (report by Matthias Buelow).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>uxterm</code> script to strip modifiers such
|
|
as "@euro" from the locale setting before adding ".UTF-8"
|
|
(Debian #179929).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify the remaining places where tek4014 emulation uses
|
|
<code>XDefineCursor()</code>, to make it work as originally
|
|
implemented, e.g., when switching back to alpha mode. Added
|
|
test-screen in vttest to test this feature properly.</li>

|
<li>work-around for XFree86 bug which made
|
|
<code>XDefineCursor()</code> on a shell-window no longer work.
|
|
The tek4014 emulation used this. Use the next lower window
|
|
(report by Karl Rudolf Bauchspiess).</li>
|

<li>add a resource setting <code>allowWindowOps</code> to
|

</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>merge <code>Error()</code> calls and some

|
<code>exit()</code> calls into <code>SysError()</code>, and
|
|
change that to add the brief explanation for each error code
|
|
which is provided in the manpage. Change a few

confusion with exit status from places that do not use

|
|
|
|
<li>simplify logic used to open a debug logfile as the standard
|
|
error.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify the <code>-e</code> option so that if it fails,
|
|
xterm will check if only one argument follows, e.g., it was
|
|
quoted, and then retry using <code>sh -c</code>.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify parsing of DECUDK string parameter to allow a comma
|
|
between pairs of hexadecimal digits (Ray Neuman
|
|
<raymond@one.com.au> reports that "real" terminals accept
|
|
this; perhaps they simply ignore unexpected characters).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix a few problems with the <code>$TERMCAP</code> string
|
|
generated by <code>resize</code>:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>for Bourne shell, add an <code>export</code> command.
|
|
This was missing as far back as X11R5.</li>
|

<li>use more explicit wording for manpage list of color

this was that there was no check to ensure that there really

<ul>
|
|
<li>correct ifdef's for <code>USE_TERMCAP</code> to match

cygwin configuration.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix several places in ctlseqs.ms which had no boxes around

the literal text (report by Ilya Zakharevich).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>extend mouse support for readline, ifdef'd with
|
|
OPT_READLINE (integrated patch from Ilya Zakharevich).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify terminfo description to match default for
|
|
<code>modifyCursorKeys</code> resource.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add <code>modifyCursorKeys</code> resource to control how
|
|
the shift- and similar modifiers are used to make a cursor
|
|
escape sequence. The default makes a modified escape sequence
|
|
always start with CSI and puts the modifier as the second
|
|
parameter, to avoid confusing applications that would interpret
|
|
the first parameter as a repeat count. The original behavior
|
|
can be obtained by setting the resource to 0 (newsgroup
|
|
discussion with Stephen J Turnbull, Jeffrey Altman).</li>
|

<li>correct missing initializations for
|
|
<code>appdefaultCursor</code> and <code>appdefaultKeypad</code>

|
|
|
|
<li>correct limit-checking in <code>ComputeSelect()</code> to
|
|
handle selections that extend off the visible area; rather than
|
|
modify the parameters to <code>TrackText()</code>, use
|
|
<code>ScrollSelection()</code> to update the highlighting
|
|
limits. (reported by Yegappan Lakshmanan and Nelson Beebe,
|

patch by Alexander V Lukyanov).</li>
|
|

<li>correct manpage description of <code>tiXtraScroll</code>
|

|
|
|
|
<li>changes from OpenBSD:
|

</li>
|
|
|

<li>add <code>print-redir</code> action and menu entry to allow

user to switch terminal in/out of printer controller mode. It
|
|
appears from the manual that a real vt220 would not switch back
|
|
to normal mode, so another mechanism is used (addresses Debian

<li>check if <code>printerCommand</code> resource string is

empty, use this to allow user to disable printer function.</li>

|
|
|
<li>trim trailing blanks from resource strings.</li>
|

<ul>

<li>augment key translations for scrollbar widget to ensure

|
|
<D.Yu.Bolkhovityanov@inp.nsk.su>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>widen ifdef's in xterm.h to define

|
<code>__EXTENSIONS__</code> on Solaris, for compilers other
|
|
than gcc. This was added along <code>_POSIX_C_SOURCE</code>
|
|
with in <a href="#xterm_151">patch #151</a>, but is not
|
|
sufficient since Sun's compiler does not define
|
|
<code>__STDC__</code> by default (report by Matthias Scheler
|
|
<tron@zhadum.de>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify xterm to obtain the closest matching color if an
|
|
exact color is not available, e.g., on 8-bit displays (patch by
|
|
Stephen P Wall)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>implement "OverTheSpot" preedit type of XIM input (patch by
|
|
Tomohiro Kubota):
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This preedit type is a reasonable compromise between
|
|
simpleness of implementation and usefulness. "Root" preedit
|
|
type is easy to implement but not useful; "OnTheSpot"
|
|
preedit type is the best in the point of view of user
|
|
interface but very complex. And more, "OverTheSpot" is the
|
|
preedit type which the most XIM servers support. Thus, to
|
|
achieve reasonable usability, support of "OverTheSpot"
|
|
preedit type is needed.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>In "OverTheSpot" preedit type, the preedit
|
|
(preconversion) string is displayed at the position of the
|
|
cursor. On the other hand, it is XIM server's
|
|
responsibility to display the preedit string. Thus, it is
|
|
needed for XIM client (here XTerm) to inform the XIM server
|
|
of the cursor position. And more, to achieve good visual
|
|
proportion, preedit string must be written using proper
|
|
font. Thus, it is XIM client's responsibility to inform the
|
|
XIM server of the proper font. The font must be supplied by
|
|
"fontset". Fontset is a set of fonts with charsets which
|
|
are specified by the current locale. Since XTerm uses
|
|
ISO10646 fonts regardless of the current locale, the fonts
|
|
for XIM must be prepared separately. It is difficult to
|
|
prepare fonts which are similar to XTerm font. Thus, my
|
|
patch uses a simple way - the default font is "*" which
|
|
matches every fonts and X library will automatically choose
|
|
fonts with proper charsets. I added "-fx" command option
|
|
and "ximFont" resource to override this default font
|
|
setting.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>changed the definition of "OverTheSpot" preedit type
|
|
from XIMPreeditPosition|XIMStatusArea to
|
|
XIMPreeditPosition|XIMStatusNothing. This matches the
|
|
behavior of other programs such as Rxvt, Kterm, Gedit.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>A tiny XIM bugfix is also included. By calling
|
|
XSetLocaleModifiers() with parameter of "", it can consier
|
|
XMODIFIERS environmental variable which is a standard way
|
|
for users to specify XIM server to be used.</li>

</ul>

</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>adjust configure script to accommodate repackaging of
|
|
keysym2ucs.c as include-file for xutf8.c (patch by Tomohiro

Kubota).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add the <code>UXTerm</code> app-defaults file to makefile
|
|
install rules (request by Juliusz Chroboczek).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct logic in <code>get_termcap()</code>, which returned
|
|
false if the <code>tgetent()</code> call indicated that xterm
|
|
was linked with terminfo. Although the <code>$TERMCAP</code>
|
|
variable cannot be adjusted in this case, xterm still needs

<h1><a name="xterm_157" id="xterm_157">Patch #157 - 2001/6/18 -
|
|
XFree86 4.1.0</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>clean up button.c and input.c (patch by Juliusz
|
|
Chroboczek). The basic idea is to use a single set of APIs in
|
|
the XTerm core, and put a set of workarounds in a separate
|
|
file. As you will notice, this drastically simplifies parts of
|
|
the code; in particular, the only remaining ifdefs related to
|
|
the differences between Xutf8 and legacy systems are related to
|
|
the selection provider logic. This defines two new files,
|
|
xutf8.h and xutf8.c, provide some half-hearted but fully
|
|
portable emulation for the three Xutf8* functions that XTerm
|
|
uses. Putting these in a separate file will allow people to
|
|
experiment with more complex versions without making the core
|
|
of XTerm more difficult to maintain. The functionality of the
|
|
emulation is as follows.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Xutf8TextListToTextProperty fully handles XStringstyle
|
|
and XUTF8StringStyle. It will only generate STRING for
|
|
XStdICCTextStyle, and wil only generate Latin-1 in
|
|
XCompoundTextStyle (but label it as COMPOUND_TEXT, as the
|
|
spec requires). (I have hesitated to make this function
|
|
fail for XStdICCTextStyle and XCompoundTextStyle; this
|
|
might be a smart thing to do, in the hope that the
|
|
selection requestor will try UTF8_STRING afterwards;
|
|
opinions?)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Xutf8TextPropertyToTextList fully handles STRING and
|
|
UTF8_STRING. It systematically fails for
|
|
COMPOUND_TEXT.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Xutf8LookupString will properly handle single-keystroke
|
|
input for the keysyms covered by Markus' keysym2ucs
|
|
function. It will not handle either compose key input or
|
|
external input methods.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add an ifdef for <code>SunXK_F36</code>, used in
|
|
<code>xtermcapKeycode()</code> (patch by Mark Waggoner
|
|
<waggoner@ichips.intel.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify check for login name to try <code>getlogin()</code>
|
|
and $LOGNAME, $USER environment variables to detect if the user
|
|
has logged in under an alias, i.e., an account with the same
|
|
user id but a different name (Debian bug report #70084).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add resource <code>tiXtraScroll</code>, which can be used
|
|
to preserve the screen contents in the scrollback rather than
|
|
erasing it when starting a fullscreen application such as
|
|
<code>vi</code> (patch by Ken Martin
|
|
<fletcher@catsreach.org>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>two patches by Denis Zaitsev <zzz@cd-club.ru>:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>added <code>forceBoxChars</code> resource to control
|
|
the "line-drawing characters" option.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added <code>freeBoldBox</code> resource, which, when
|
|
set true, suppresses check in
|
|
<code>same_font_size()</code>, so xterm does not attempt to
|
|
ensure that the bold font is the same size as the normal
|
|
font.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change the color class for ANSI colors and similar ones
|
|
such as bold-color, etc., to follow the convention that the
|
|
classname is the instance name with a leading capital (e.g.,
|
|
<code>color0</code> and <code>Color0</code> rather than
|
|
<code>color0</code> and <code>Foreground</code>). There was
|
|
little use for Foreground as a class other than to create
|
|
occasional confusion and bug reports, most recently by Nelson
|
|
Beebe who reports that it disables colors in xterm but not on
|
|
Linux, which is probably due to a difference in resource
|
|
evaluation order. A configure script option
|
|
(--disable-color-class) is provided for anyone who did use the
|
|
older behavior.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix a signal-handling bug. When running xterm with
|
|
<code>ksh</code> or similar shell such as bash 2.05, xterm will
|
|
hang and not respond to keystrokes after the user types
|
|
<code>suspend</code>. Additionally the popup menus do not
|
|
respond, so it is not possible to send SIGCONT to the shell.
|
|
What is happening is that the shell is sending itself SIGSTOP,
|
|
and it is being stopped. Per specification it also means that
|
|
the operating system is sending SIGCHLD to parent to the bash
|
|
(XTERM). Now the issue is that xterm assumes it cannot happen
|
|
and it expects to receive SIGCHLD only upon
|
|
<em>termination</em> of its children. This causes a deadlock
|
|
with xterm waiting for the child to die, and the child waiting
|
|
for SIGCONT. (report/patch by Adam Sulmicki), analysis/testing

<h1><a name="xterm_151" id="xterm_151">Patch #151 - 2001/3/10 -
|
|
XFree86 4.0.2</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>alter the behaviour of selections in XTerm (patch by
|
|
Juliusz Chroboczek). It is believed to follow the ICCCM +
|
|
UTF8_STRING to the letter, both in UTF-8 and in eight-bit mode.
|
|
From his description:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>When compiled against XFree86 4.0.2, the patched XTerm
|
|
will make the selection available as COMPOUND_TEXT, STRING
|
|
or UTF8_STRING in both modes. It will request selections in
|
|
the following order:
|
|
|
|
<p>UTF-8 mode: UTF8_STRING, TEXT, COMPOUND_TEXT,
|
|
STRING.<br>
|
|
eight-bit mode: TEXT, COMPOUND_TEXT, UTF8_STRING,
|
|
STRING.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>When compiled against an earlier version of XFree86 (or
|
|
compiled with OPT_UTF8_API=0), it will still obey the
|
|
ICCCM, but will neither request nor provide UTF8_STRING in
|
|
eight-bit mode, and neither TEXT nor COMPOUND_TEXT in UTF-8
|
|
mode.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>For compatibility with previous versions of XTerm, a
|
|
resource <code>i18nSelections</code> is provided, please
|
|
see the manpage for details. However, due to an unexpected
|
|
combination of ICCCM extensions by various bits and pieces
|
|
of the libraries, interacting with previous versions of
|
|
XTerm will work in many locales even without this flag.
|
|
(Please do not set this resource to true by default, as
|
|
this would violate the ICCCM.)</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improved error checking/reporting in VTInitI18N(), ensuring
|
|
that lack of input method styles is treated distinctly from a
|
|
mismatch.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove an incorrect ifdef from patch #141 which suppressed
|
|
overstriking to simulate bold font when xterm was compiled to
|
|
support wide characters (report/analysis by Adam M Costello
|
|
<amc@cs.berkeley.edu>, Debian #76404, Debian
|
|
#77575).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>RequestResize()</code> function to
|
|
save/restore window manager hints. Its call to
|
|
<code>XtMakeResizeRequest()</code> had the undesirable
|
|
side-effect of clearing window manager hints, e.g., when
|
|
switching to 132-columns via DECCOLM escape sequence. Window
|
|
manager hints make it simple to resize xterm in terms of
|
|
character cells rather than pixels (reports by Christian
|
|
Weisgerber, Debian #79939).
|
|
|
|
<p>This applies to the normal configuration. When built with
|
|
toolbar support, the hints are applied to a different widget
|
|
level (more work will be needed to make hints work with the
|
|
toolbar).</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix a redefinition warning for resize.c on OpenBSD (patch
|
|
by Christian Weisgerber).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change resource corresponding to <code>-T</code> option to
|
|
match Xt library's <code>-title</code>, i.e.,
|
|
<code>.title</code> rather than <code>*title</code> so the
|
|
command-line options are interchangeable as documented (Debian
|
|
bug report #68843).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add script used from autoconf'd makefile for installing
|
|
manpages, since recent XFree86 changing the way section numbers
|
|
are represented makes the install dependent on extra
|
|
scripts.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure check for freetype libraries and configure
|
|
option --disable-freetype to override this feature.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify some configure script macros to avoid using
|
|
changequote(), which has been rendered useless in the latest
|
|
autoconf alpha 2.49c</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>update config.guess, config.sub to 2001-2-13</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove redundant/contradictory __CYGWIN__ definitions from
|
|
resize.c</li>

<li>correct manpage typo introduced by X11R6.5 resync.</li>

|
|
<ul>
|

<li>move the binding for shifted keypad plus/minus, which

|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>fix a scrolling / combining characters display
|
|
anomaly</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix a problem with double-width characters where if the

half of double-width characters was erased (reported by Yao
|

|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify logic that compares sizes of normal and bold fonts
|
|
to be more forgiving of the font server's choice of bold font
|
|
which must match the normal font's size. Now
|
|
<code>same_font_size()</code> compares the height of the fonts
|
|
rather than individually ascent and descent, and allows the
|
|
bold font to be one pixel smaller than the normal font
|
|
(addresses a report by Alan Citterman <alan@mticket.com>,
|
|
who says that something in patches #146 to #148 made xterm more
|
|
likely to overstrike bold fonts, and indirectly Debian bug
|

report #76404, which reports the opposite).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make configure script use $CFLAGS and $CPPFLAGS
|

consistently, including removing a chunk from configure.in
|
|
which attempted to save/restore $CPPFLAGS while processing
|
|
value set by the --x-includes option, but lost values set in an
|
|
intervening AC_CHECK_HEADERS. This change modifies macros

CF_ADD_CFLAGS, CF_ANSI_CC_CHECK and CF_X_TOOLKIT, as well as

<h1><a name="xterm_149" id="xterm_149">Patch #149 - 2000/12/6 -
|
|
XFree86 4.0.1h</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>restructured includes for <code>termios.h</code>,
|
|
<code>termio.h</code> and related definitions for main.c,
|
|
os2main.c, screen.c and resize.c so they will share equivalent
|
|
definitions in a new header <code>xterm_io.h</code>. This is
|
|
intended to solve some problems mainly for HPUX which appear to
|
|
arise from inconsistent definitions for SIGWINCH- and
|
|
HAS_LTCHARS-related symbols (reports by Bruno Betro, Jeremie
|
|
Petit and Clint Olsen).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve usability of double-width fonts by allowing normal
|
|
fonts to be given as double-width (from a patch by Fabrice
|
|
Bellard <bellard@email.enst.fr>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a few compiler warnings in TRACE() macros for
|
|
signed/unsigned variable differences (reported by Clint
|
|
Olsen).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make configure script use $CFLAGS and $CPPFLAGS more
|
|
consistently, i.e., by using CF_ADD_CFLAGS in CF_ANSI_CC
|
|
macro.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>expanded description of environment variables in
|
|
manual-page.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify OPT_TCAP_QUERY feature to always return the termcap
|
|
or terminfo capability string in the response, and to
|
|
read/write the names in hexadecimal form to allow for the
|
|
special case of termcap's <code>k;</code> name (patch by Bram
|
|
Moolenaar).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add OPT_SAME_NAME and OPT_TCAP_QUERY to xtermcfg.hin, so
|
|
the corresponding configure options work (patch by Bram
|
|
Moolenaar).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>resync with XFree86 4.0.1g:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Rewrite Xft library for Render extension/core text and
|
|
font management Change xterm to use new interface (Keith
|
|
Packard).</li>

|
|
|

<ul>
|

<li>document logfile options in man-page.</li>
|
|

<li>correct spelling of <code>-samename</code> option in help
|

<li>add configure script option
|
|
<code>--enable-tcap-query</code> (request by Bram

|
|
|
|
<li>add a "Co" or "colors" entry to the OPT_TCAP_QUERY feature
|
|
(patch by Bram Moolenaar).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>patch by Kiyokazu Suto <suto@ks-and-ks.ne.jp>:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add support for bold font for double width characters.
|
|
The font name may be specified with the command line option
|
|
<code>-fwb</code> or with resource
|
|
<code>wideBoldFont</code> (class
|
|
<code>WideBoldFont</code>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct underlining of double width character string,
|
|
which was drawn only half width.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct binary search of precomposed character table,
|
|
which may return wrong result when <code>int</code> is just
|
|
32 bits.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>some changes to align terminfo with ncurses 5.2:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>remove xtermm description, retaining xterm-mono since
|
|
the former conflicts with ncurses.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify initialization and reset strings to avoid
|
|
putting the save/restore cursor operations bracketing
|
|
changes to video attributes, since the changes could be
|
|
lost when the cursor is restored. This affects xterm-r6 and
|
|
xterm-8bit (the xterm-xfree86 entry uses the soft-reset
|
|
feature which resets scrolling margins and origin mode
|
|
without requiring us to save/restore the cursor
|
|
position).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make a few entries explicitly inherit from
|
|
xterm-xfree86 rather than xterm: xterm-rep, xterm-xmc,
|
|
xterm-nrc</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>ensure that sign-extension does not affect
|
|
<code>ctype</code> macros by using <code>CharOf()</code> macro
|
|
to coerce the parameter to an unsigned char.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>resync with XFree86 4.0.1d:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Add primitive support in xterm for Xft based fonts
|
|
(Keith Packard). The changes are ifdef'd with

|
|
XFree86 4.0.1c</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>correct implementation of <code>ptyInitialErase</code>: the
|
|
value assigned to <code>initial_erase</code> was for the
|
|
control terminal, which is correct as far as it goes. But there
|
|
was no following test for the pseudo-terminal's erase value,
|
|
which would overwrite the default obtained from the control
|
|
terminal (reported by Christian Weisgerber
|
|
<naddy@mips.inka.de>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify check for printable-characters in OSC string to use
|
|
xterm's ansi_table rather than isprint() macro, to isolate this
|
|
check from locale settings. This fixes a problem using 8-bit
|
|
characters to set the title (reported by Ricardas Cepas
|
|
<rch@richard.eu.org>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify sample scripts to check for printf before print,
|
|
since the latter is not as well standardized (e.g., on
|
|
Linux).</li>
|
|
|

<li>updated config.sub, config.guess to reflect changes on

XFree86 4.0.1c</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>correct two instances overlooked from patch #141 which
|
|
assumed UTF-8 mode without checking, causing a core dump in
|
|
non-UTF-8 mode (one instance was reported by Tommi Virtanen
|
|
<tv@debian.org>).</li>
|

UTF-8 mode by changing remaining getXtermCell() calls to

|
|
XFree86 4.0.1c</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>changes for UTF-8 configuration (Robert Brady):
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>doublewide characters don't lose their accents when the
|
|
cursor moves onto or from them (a visual bug)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix logic in addXtermCombining, which mean that if the
|
|
low byte of a cell's first combining char was 0, a
|
|
following combining char would go into combining slot 1,
|
|
not 2.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify logic for cut-buffers so UTF-8 data is first
|
|
converted to Latin1.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>collapse surrogates, 0xfffe, 0xffff to UCS_REPL.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify to allow xterm to to show combining characters
|
|
attached to doublewidth characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct bug in linewrap with -u8 option (reported by
|
|
Andreas Koenig <andreas.koenig@anima.de>).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>several changes to PTY logic (based on request by Tim Ryan
|
|
<timryan@nortelnetworks.com>).
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>modify treatment of <code>-S</code> option to to make
|
|
it work with Unix98 PTY's.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>restore sense of IsPts flag in <code>get_pty()</code>,
|
|
which was lost in Unix98 changes.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>use new functions <code>my_pty_id()</code> and
|
|
<code>my_pty_name()</code> to simplify/fix strings used for
|
|
utmp, wtmp identifiers.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>simplify <code>get_pty()</code> function, making it
|
|
have a single return point so its inputs/outputs can be
|
|
identified.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>update config.guess and config.sub and scripts to my
|
|
20000819 patch, adding cases for OS/2 EMX.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add special case for os390 compiler options to configure
|
|
script (patch by Paul Gilmartin)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix some unused-variable compiler warnings (reported by
|
|
Zdenek Sekera).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>split-out some string functions into xstrings.c, to use
|
|
them more consistently among main.c, os2main.c and
|
|
resize.c</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>align termcap/terminfo files, adding entries to make them
|
|
match. The termcap entries are necessarily less complete than
|
|
the terminfo, to fit within 1023 character per entry.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add terminfo entry for xterm-sco (SCO function keys).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>same_font_name()</code> to properly handle
|
|
wildcard introduced in <code>bold_font_name()</code>, making
|
|
comparison for different fonts succeed when only the normal
|
|
font is specified. This is needed to decide if 1-pixel offset
|
|
should be used. (reported in a newsgroup by Bart Oldeman
|
|
<enbeo@enbeo.resnet.bris.ac.uk>)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct preprocessor line for OPT_WIDE_CHARS in
|
|
drawXtermText() from patch #141 which resulted in overstriking
|
|
for bold fonts not working.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct Imakefile from 4.0.1c resync so UTF-8 modules are
|
|
in UTF8SRC, UTF8OBJ lists, allowing build without UTF-8
|
|
support.</li>

|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>remove a spurious assignment in ScreenWrite() from Robert
|
|
Brady's patch which set a null at the "end" of the buffer to be
|
|
written. That made the autowrap feature write a blank in the
|

<ul>
|

<li>workaround for fixed fonts which are generated from Unicode

features for the latter which require <code>sco</code> to be
|
|
predefined.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>patches from Stephen P Wall:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add support for two Sun-specific function keys. These
|
|
keys are labeled F11 and F12 on Sun Type 5 keyboards, but
|
|
return SunXK_F36 and SunXK_F37. Support will only be
|
|
compiled in if the header file <X11/Sunkeysym.h>
|
|
exists and contains the appropriate symbol definitions. The
|
|
keycodes for the DEC keycodes were arbitrary unused codes,
|
|
but the ones for the Sun keycodes are what cmdtool and
|
|
shelltool actually send.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add <code>colorRV</code> and <code>colorRVMode</code>
|
|
resources to allow specifying a color to use for reverse
|
|
video, similar to the existing UL, BD, and BL modes.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add <code>alwaysUseMods</code> resource, to override
|
|
check if <code>alt</code> or <code>meta</code> modifiers
|
|
are used in <code>translations</code> resource. Revamped
|
|
the code to calculate the modifier value, and included Meta
|
|
if alwaysUseMods is TRUE, using values 9-16.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fixes for os390 (Paul Gilmartin):
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>regularize the definition of CONTROL() and remove an
|
|
acknowledged "trial and error" table.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>translate "^?" into A2E(0177) which is the EBCDIC "DEL"
|
|
rather than plain 0177 which is the EBCDIC quotation
|
|
mark.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <code>xtermMissingChar()</code> so that EBCDIC
|
|
codes 128-159 are not rendered as blanks by X server
|
|
running on Solaris, which sees those as control
|
|
characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make debugging traces (configure --enable-trace) work
|
|
properly with EBCDIC.</li>

|

XFree86 3.9.18b</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>improve logfile security (integrated patch by Branden
|
|
Robinson)
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>make the <code>creat_as()</code> function more strict
|
|
by using O_EXCL rather than O_APPEND.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fixes to make DEBUG ifdef's compile/run, including
|
|
making the debug logfile more unique by appending a
|
|
timestamp to its name.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>include <term.h> in resize.c, to fix a
|
|
missing-prototype warning.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modified <code>creat_as()</code> a little more, retaining
|
|
the ability to append to a logfile If the user specifies the
|
|
name. Also, check if the opened file (which patch #130 ensures
|
|
is owned by the effective user) is not writable by other
|
|
users.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>use <code>creat_as()</code> logic to make tek4014
|
|
screen-copy more secure (noted by Branden Robinson).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>ifdef'd some of Branden's changes to build/work on older
|
|
machines.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct missing initialization of the <code>.mode</code>
|
|
flag in <code>ColorRes</code> struct, from patch #129. This
|
|
worked on Linux because <code>malloc()</code> zeroes memory on
|
|
that platform (reported by Christian Weisgerber).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify logic for <code>deleteIsDEL</code> resource so it
|
|
has internally 3 states: unspecified, true and false. If
|
|
unspecified, the keyboard type determines whether the Delete
|
|
key transmits <code><ESC>[3~</code> or <code>\177</code>,
|
|
and the popup menu entry reflects the internal state.
|
|
Otherwise, the popup menu entry overrides the keyboard type
|
|
(suggested by Dr Werner Fink, to make it simpler to set
|
|
resources that imitate the legacy X11R6 xterm).</li>

<ul>

<li>modify <code>scroll-forw()</code> and
|
|
<code>scroll-back()</code> actions, adding a third parameter
|
|
which will direct xterm to ignore the action when mouse
|
|
reporting is enabled. This is needed for the wheel mouse to be
|
|
used to report to the application rather than scroll the

|
|
|
|
<li>add menu entry and action to allow disabling xterm's
|
|
assumption that the current font contains line-drawing
|

|
|
have other characters (reported by Bruno Betro

|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>change coding of editing keypad's "Delete" key to
|
|
<escape>[3~, in the default (Sun/PC) keyboard mode. This
|
|
makes the terminfo kdch1 capability independent of the coding
|
|
of the backarrow key, which sends either backspace (8) or DEL
|
|
(127). The reason for doing this (compatibility with the
|
|
<em>screen</em> program) outweighs the choice of DEL (127)
|
|
which was used in X11R5/X11R6 xterms. The <em>screen</em>
|
|
program translates whatever matches kdch1 into
|
|
<escape>[3~, even if it happens to be the stty erase
|
|
character.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add encoding for control/?, to work around xmodmap or key

control/? will send DEL (127), and a control/H will of course
|
|
send backspace (8).</li>

not found in xterm's lookup table.</li>
|

<li>simplify ifdef's in main.c for POSIX VDISABLE so the "^-"

<h1><a name="xterm_120" id="xterm_120">Patch #120 - 1999/10/28 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9.16c</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>refine the change to <code>SGR_Background()</code> in patch
|
|
#119, by not flushing the pending scrolling operation if the
|
|
background color is not actually changing. This combination
|
|
occurs when using color-ls to display a long listing, since
|
|
each line ends with an SGR0 which affects only the foreground
|
|
color. The unnecessary flushing made it noticeably slower
|
|
(reported by D Roland Walker <walker@pobox.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove obsolete documentation about modifiers which can be
|
|
returned in mouse tracking mode, and modify logic to ignore
|
|
modifiers other than the existing ones, e.g., NumLock (prompted
|
|
by discussions with Christian Weisgerber and Brad Pepers
|
|
<brad@linuxcanada.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>use free bit from obsolete shift-modifier coding of mouse
|
|
tracking button events to encode buttons 4 and 5, e.g., for a
|
|
wheel mouse (requests by Brad Pepers and Bram Moolenaar).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a place where the ptyInitialErase logic did not set
|
|
the backarrowKey state, and modify it further to use tgetstr()
|
|
rather than parse the termcap data returned from tgetent() so
|
|
the ptyInitialErase logic will work when xterm is linked with a
|
|
terminfo library (based on a patch by Dr Werner Fink
|
|
<werner@suse.de>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>fix definition of HAVE_UTMP_UT_HOST for ISC configuration
|
|
(patch by Michael Rohleder).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve configure script's utmp tests (based on reports by
|
|
Greg Smith for os390, and David Ellement for HPUX).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify sinstall.sh to use uid=0 rather than 'root' to
|
|
determine if the installer is privileged. This is needed on
|
|
some systems since more than one account may be privileged
|
|
(report by Greg Smith).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add an application resource, <code>messages</code> (and a
|
|
corresponding -/+mesg option) which controls the initial
|
|
permission on the terminal: if messages is set to true (the
|
|
default), behavior is as without the patch; if it is set to
|
|
false (as per -mesg), the terminal is opened in mode 0600, thus
|
|
producing the effect of the <code>mesg n</code> command. This
|
|
is useful for users who want to redirect all their messages to
|
|
one particular xterm: it is more pleasant to do this with xterm
|
|
resources than with explicit calls to the <code>mesg</code>
|
|
program (patch, description by David Madore

|
|
|
|
<li>correct error in _GNU_SOURCE configure test, which left it
|
|
always defined.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add more information, i.e., with strerror for some system

|
|
by Jeremie Petit <Jeremie.Petit@digital.com>).</li>

|
<sys/select.h> on AIX 4.3 (Richard Griswold

|
<griswold@acm.org>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure script test to resolve conflict between

<li>modify translation of UTF-8 sequences to reject "overly

|
|
|
|
<li>remove <code>utf8controls</code> resource, since Markus'
|
|
change removes the corresponding logic.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a case where colors were not rendered properly.
|
|
This happened when an application inserted several lines, then
|
|
changed colors. If this was done all in one write, then there
|
|
would be no intervening refresh, and the new color was applied
|
|
to the pending scrolling operation which was awaiting the next
|
|
refresh (reported by Stephane Chazelas

Alexander V Lukyanov, Redhat #5419). From the problem report:

|
<blockquote>
|

toggle group off rather than on (reported by Greg Smith).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>minor improvement to toolbar geometry, to make it not
|
|
resizable. This still is not satisfactory (but is usable) since
|
|
the toolbar overlaps the xterm widget if the window is resized

DECELR, "Enable Locator Reports"
|

DECSLE, "Select Locator Events"

notes,
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Bug 1<br>
|
|
Underlined text is preceded by ESC [0;2m . This should
|
|
be ESC [0;4m , ESC [2m doesn't seem to have
|
|
any effect. (print.c/send_SGR)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Bug 2<br>
|
|
The check for the last non-empty column (while (last >

0) ... in print.c/printLine) omits the rightmost column of
|
|
the screen, the loop must start with last =
|
|
screen->max_col+1 instead of last =
|
|
screen->max_col.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Bug 3<br>
|
|
Any attributes of the first character (and of all
|
|
immediately following characters with the same attributes)
|
|
are ignored. The variable attr (print.c/printLine) should
|
|
be initialized with 0, not with *a & SGR_MASK.</li>

<ul>

<li>Two changes from Stephen P Wall. From his description:

<blockquote>
|

<p>The first change is simple - I added ESC[3J to erase the

|
util.c and ctlseqs.ms are.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The second change is to get the blinking cursor working.
|
|
I took out the cursorBlinkTime resource, and put in
|
|
cursorBlink (Boolean), cursorOnTime (time cursor is on in
|
|
msecs) and cursorOffTime, and added a cursorblink item to
|
|
the vtMenu to enable/disable it.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve selection (integrated patch by Juliusz Chroboczek).
|
|
From his description:
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>With this patch, selection conversion works
|
|
properly:</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
ISO 8859-1 xterm -> ISO 8859-1 xterm (transferred as STRING);
|
|
ISO 8859-1 xterm -> UTF-8 xterm (transferred as STRING);
|
|
UTF-8 xterm -> ISO 8859-1 xterm (transferred as STRING);
|
|
UTF-8 xterm -> UTF-8 xterm (transferred as UTF-8).
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>It will not work properly if one xterm is in, say, ISO
|
|
8859-2. Actually, for this case xterm breaks the ICCCM
|
|
routinely (sending ISO 8859-2 data as STRING), so I
|
|
wouldn't worry too much about it. I have not changed the

|
behaviour in eight-bit mode in any way.</p>

|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>No longer links xterm against libutil on a glibc2.1
|
|
system. libutil is a compatibility library and should
|
|
only be used when necessary. Rather than having get_pty()
|
|
use openpty() from this compatibility library, use the
|
|
real UNIX98 pty support in get_pty() (open()ing the
|
|
master pty, through getpt() if available (glibc
|
|
extension)). Use openpty() only under glibc2.0.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>GNU libc2 is not Linux-specific; already it runs on
|
|
the Hurd. It provides the UNIX98 pty functions (plus the
|
|
getpt() extension), regardless of the underlying OS.
|
|
Changed two constructs to look for GNU libc2 only, not

|
GNU libc2 on Linux.</li>

|
XFree86 3.9Pd</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Here are several fixes and minor enhancements. The chief ones
|
|
are the fixes for NumLock mode and reverse video, since we had
|
|
become used to working around the problems.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>remove kfnd/kll/kslt strings from terminfo, because curses
|
|
applications do not necessarily return khome/kend pairs
|
|
(reported by Vikas Agnihotri).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>implement NumLock resource which overrides the keyboard
|
|
tables for the special case of keypad keys. This is a problem
|
|
introduced in xterm by X11R6 changes, i.e., an ambiguity which
|
|
in effect discarded vt100 keypad support.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify Sun/PC keyboard mode to extend this (emulation of
|
|
DEC vt100 keypad) to the remainder of the numeric keypad. Now,
|
|
the default operating mode of xterm uses the keyboard tables
|
|
as-is (except if the NumLock mode overrides), but provides good
|
|
vt100 keypad compatibility if the Sun/PC keyboard menu item is
|
|
checked.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>separate command-line settings for reverse video from that
|
|
done under program control. This is a problem which was
|
|
introduced by X11R6. Though <em>correct</em>, most users are
|
|
confused by allowing the reset command to undo the effect of
|
|
the command-line <kbd>-rv</kbd> option.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add description of function keys, keypad and cursor keys to
|
|
ctlseqs.ms</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add terminfo entries for xterm-vt52, xterm-sun and
|
|
xterm-hp</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct typo (missing case value) for DECSET 35,
|
|
enable/disable shifted keypad action and a few compiler
|
|
warnings (reported by Zdenek Sekera <zs@sgi.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct reporting of color values 8-15 in DECRQSS (reported
|
|
by Vikas Agnihotri).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify parsing of ttyModes resource to recognize "^-" as
|
|
"undef" (requested by Tomas Vanhala).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>integrate/extend changes to add iconify/maximize actions
|
|
(from Edward S. Arthur <eda@ultranet.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add control sequences for maximizing/restoring window, and
|
|
for reporting maximum screen size.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add 'interpret' action, to support local function-key
|
|
interpretation. Used properly, this makes most of the
|
|
specialized actions of xterm redundant.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add control sequence private modes 1051, 1052 and 1052, for
|
|
setting the Sun and HP function key modes, and for setting the
|
|
Sun/PC keyboard mode.</li>
|

XFree86 3.9Nz</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>increase buffer size for tgetent (i.e., termcap) to 1500.
|
|
This fixes a problem where <em>screen</em> is built using
|
|
ncurses or GNU termcap and <em>xterm</em> is built using the

|
termcap size, while the latter is assumed to be no longer than
|
|
1023 characters. The <em>screen</em> program's termcap entry is
|
|
about 1200 characters long.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change update_menu_item() to a function, to simplify
|
|
debugging. This also reduces the executable by 4Kb.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add control sequences for DECSET 30, 1010, 1011 like rxvt
|
|
(enable or disable some features that were only settable via

|
|
|
|
<li>add control sequence for DECSET 35, which enables/disables

|
|
<li>add support for switching font sizes, by stepping through

|
the font menu using shifted keypad plus and minus.</li>

<h1><a name="xterm_90" id="xterm_90">Patch #90 - 1998/12/13 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Nq</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This implements several small fixes and enhancements. The
|
|
chief one implements fallback support for line drawing characters
|
|
with fonts that do not include those characters. But I
|
|
implemented that last.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If any of the glyphs in positions 0-31 (used by xterm to
|
|
implement the VT100 alternate character set) are zero-sized
|
|
(i.e., missing), xterm will reserve a normal space for the
|
|
glyph when drawing. I implemented a simple stroke-drawing
|
|
function to draw the line-drawing characters and a couple of
|
|
the other (simpler) characters such as diamond. (This was
|
|
suggested by Vikas Agnihotri).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Modify the computation of doublesize characters to work
|
|
around font servers which shift the scaled characters up/down
|
|
or do not give the correct width.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Add popup menu item and corresponding resource settings to
|
|
disable the font-scaling logic for doublesize characters to
|
|
work around (older) font servers which simply do not draw the
|
|
fonts scaled to the size that they said they would. I see this
|
|
problem on a SunOS system running X11R5; the X11R6 servers seem
|
|
well behaved.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Implement new escape sequence, private mode 1049, which
|
|
combines the switch to/from alternate screen mode with screen
|
|
clearing and cursor save/restore. Unlike the existing escape
|
|
sequence, this clears the alternate screen when switching to it
|
|
rather than when switching to the normal screen, thus retaining
|
|
the alternate screen contents for select/paste operations.
|
|
|
|
<p>When I implemented the popup menu entry to toggle between
|
|
the normal and alternate screens, I considered only pasting
|
|
from the normal screen to the alternate; this improvement
|
|
allows either direction.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Changed the termcap and terminfo for xterm-xfree86 and
|
|
xterm-8bit to use the new 1049 private mode.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Modify the logic which switches between normal and
|
|
alternate screens so that the save/restore cursor operations
|
|
apply only to the current screen. That means that applications
|
|
which use the terminfo smcur/rmcur or termcap ti/te
|
|
capabilities will restore the cursor to the original position
|
|
on the normal screen rather than to the most recent place where
|
|
a save-cursor operation was performed.
|
|
|
|
<p>I note that a real VT100 terminal would not behave in this
|
|
way, but it is a moot point since the VT100 does not
|
|
implement alternate screen, and therefore the save/restore
|
|
cursor sequence would not be used in this context. I reviewed
|
|
the logic which switches between normal and alternate screens
|
|
based on some recent newsgroup postings as well as a proposed
|
|
patch in the Debian group which attempts to do this (the
|
|
patch has a bug, however, so I did not use it).</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Add popup menu entry for toggling the titeInhibit
|
|
resource.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Add new resource answerbackString, which overrides the
|
|
default "xterm" returned by xterm when responding to an ENQ
|
|
(control/E) character (request by Rajesh Vaidheeswarran
|
|
<rv@fore.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Add new resource keyboardDialect for setting the NRC
|
|
display character set (request by Tomas Vanhala, who notes that
|
|
I should add logic to translate the keyboard as well).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Add new command-line option and corresponding resources for
|
|
making xterm generate escape sequences compatible with HP
|
|
terminals. Like the existing Sun escape sequences, this is
|
|
available as a popup menu item. It is enabled by the configure
|
|
script with the option --enable-hp-fkeys (requested by Toni
|
|
Mueller <sales@oeko.net>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Add configure script option --disable-boxchars to disable
|
|
the fallback support for line drawing characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Fix ifdef's for configure script --disable-ansi-color, and
|
|
reviewed all configure options to ensure that all can be

XFree86 3.9Nm</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch completes the implementation of double-sized
|
|
character support for the VT100 emulation, and fixes a few minor
|
|
bugs:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>corrected the cursor position in HideCursor, which did not
|
|
multiply the column by two when in doublesize mode. This bug,
|
|
which did not appear in normal use, dates back to my original
|
|
<a href="#xterm_44">changes</a> to partly implement
|
|
double-sized characters. I noticed it when cat'ing a typescript
|
|
from vttest's double-sized character test.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>ensure that the current line is repainted when switching
|
|
between single and double width characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>reduce the number of bits used for double-sized character
|
|
coding from 3 to 2, to make more room for soft-font codes.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>copy newer ifdef's from the XFree86 3.3.3 release's main.c,
|
|
which address details of glibc and powerpc.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>moved definition of DECL_ERRNO in xterm.h to match XFree86
|
|
3.3.3</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify <em>resize</em> to remove the ifdef on SVr4 that
|
|
suppressed printing the script for $LINES and $COLUMNS.
|
|
Solaris' resize utility does this; suppressing the behavior is
|
|
unnecessary.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>I tested the double-sized characters using vttest and the
|
|
xfsft patch. These fonts worked reasonably well:</p>

-bitstream-courier-medium-r-normal--0-0-0-0-m-0-iso8859-1

but looks good.</p>

XFree86 3.9Nk and 3.3.2h</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This refines my #85 patch by checking for a case where the
|
|
font server returns a bold font that does not quite correspond to
|
|
the normal font. When I asked for a bold version of the 6x12

|
font, the font server returned a near equivalent where the ascent

across the display. This patch makes xterm reject that type of

mismatch, falling back to the old font behavior.</p>

<h1><a name="xterm_78" id="xterm_78">Patch #78 - 1998/6/3 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ah and 3.3.2</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Again, most of the bulk of this patch is for ANSI conversion.
|
|
I used the IRIX compiler's -wlint option to find the remaining
|
|
functions that use K&R syntax (since gcc does not do this
|
|
properly). Also, I changed the logic in the print code slightly
|
|
to close unwanted files before opening a pipe to the printer.
|
|
This may help in some configurations where the line printer hangs
|
|
until xterm closes the pipe.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h1><a name="xterm_77" id="xterm_77">Patch #77 - 1998/5/26 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ah and 3.3.2</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Most of the bulk of this patch is to convert the extended C
|
|
(K&R functions with prototypes) to ANSI. I verified that on
|
|
Linux by comparing object files, to ensure that I did not, for
|
|
example, interchange parameters in the function declarations.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The rest of the patch fixes several minor bugs, and adds a few
|
|
features:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>back-out my use of ncurses "captoinfo -f" option
|
|
(if/then/else/endif) formatting, since ncurses did not
|
|
correctly filter embedded newlines in terminfo capability
|
|
strings until _after_ ncurses 4.1, thus corrupting
|
|
setf/setb/sgr strings (reported by Darren Hiebert and
|
|
others).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>document SGR 8, 28 (invisible/visible), add corresponding
|
|
capabilities to terminfo description.
|
|
|
|
<p>I would also add the 'prot protected capability, but the
|
|
control sequences for that would not be recognized or
|
|
properly ignored by the older xterm programs.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify ChangeGroup to not suppress a null-resource, but
|
|
treat it as an empty string (recommended by Stefan
|
|
Dalibor).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add printerAutoClose resource to control whether printer is
|
|
closed when going offline. More than one person reports
|
|
problems (on Solaris 2.6 and Digital Unix 4.0) getting the
|
|
printer to proceed unless xterm exits; I think that it is a
|
|
problem flushing the pipe. Closing it ought to flush it.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>adapt TOG fix-3 to in HandleKeymapChange and VTInitI18N
|
|
(but adapt XtStackAlloc/XtStackFree for clarity, as well as
|
|
fixing memory leak).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change calls on FillCurBackground to ClearCurBackground, in
|
|
effect using XClearArea rather than XFillRectangle when
|
|
clearing as a side-effect of scrolling and insertion (patch by
|
|
Alexander V Lukyanov)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct some places where insert/delete did not _move_ the
|
|
color attributes, using memmove (patch by Alexander V Lukyanov
|
|
<lav@long.yar.ru>)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add ifdef's for __CYGWIN32__, for port to cygnus version
|
|
B19.1 (patch by Andrew Sumner
|
|
<andrew_sumner@hotmail.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove #define for hpux that turned on USE_SYSV_ENVVARS,
|
|
since this causes some applications (such as 'less') to get
|
|
incorrect $LINES and $COLUMNS values (reported by Clint
|
|
Olsen).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify behavior for HP-UX, to set the "reserved" process
|
|
group controls to _POSIX_VDISABLE so the TIOCSLTC ioctl does
|
|
not produce an error (patch by Ben Yoshino
|
|
<ben@wiliki.eng.hawaii.edu>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct length of underlining, reducing it by one pixel to
|
|
avoid leaving a dot when the application does not clear the
|
|
whole screen I noticed this only recently myself (and other
|
|
people as well); it depends on the font chosen. A 6x10 font
|
|
shows it, but the other fonts from XTerm.ad do not. I also see
|
|
a similar problem with the emulation of bold fonts. (patch by
|
|
Sergei Laskavy <Laskavy@cs.msu.su>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add include for Xos.h to xterm.h, to ensure proper
|
|
definitions (reported by Holger Veit).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>update config.guess to recognize Unixware 2.1 and 7 (patch
|
|
by Mike Hopkirk <hops@sco.com>).</li>

<p>A fix for the print-window function, and some minor

|
|
|
|
<ul>
|

<li>modify logic that closes pipe in the print-window function

XFree86 3.9Ah and 3.3.2</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This incorporates fixes from several people, as well as some
|
|
improvements that I made based on feedback from users:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add option to standalone configure script,
|
|
"--with-own-terminfo-dir", which causes xterm to pass a
|
|
predefined value of $TERMINFO to the application. Also use this
|
|
value in install rule "make install-ti", for the standalone
|
|
configure script. (patch & feedback from Tor Lillqvist
|
|
<tml@hemuli.tte.vtt.fi>)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change ifdef's for "hpux" to "__hpux" (patch by Tor
|
|
Lillqvist). The imake configuration uses the former, but the
|
|
latter is predefined by HP's compilers.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>define USE_SYSV_ENVVARS for HP-UX, curses does not use
|
|
$TERMCAP (patch by Tor Lillqvist).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>on HP-UX, use the /dev/ptym/clone device to allocate PTY's.
|
|
Works both on HP-UX 9 and 10. (patch by Tor Lillqvist).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify configure script to obtain the $(EXTRA_LOADFLAGS)
|
|
value from imake, needed for compiling under DEC OSF/1
|
|
(reported by Stefan Dalibor)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify print-window action so that the printer is closed
|
|
after printing a window, unless the printer was already opened
|
|
(i.e., by an application running in the window). This makes the
|
|
printing complete without having to exit xterm, since not all
|
|
systems treat fflush through a pipe very well (reported by
|
|
Stefan Dalibor)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify printing code so that the ^M's are not printed if
|
|
the printAttribute resource is set to zero (request by Stefan
|
|
Dalibor).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct typo in xterm.man, for the default value of
|
|
printAttribute (reported by Stefan Dalibor).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct printing code so that the alternate character set
|
|
is printed, like other attributes, with escape sequences.</li>
|

|
|
|
|
<li>correct ownership of file (actually pipe) written by the
|
|
print controls. When undoing the setuid changes in patch #69, I
|
|
overlooked this. Now xterm forks a process which resets setuid
|
|
and routes the printer data as the real user.</li>
|

<h1><a name="xterm_73" id="xterm_73">Patch #73 - 1998/4/25 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ag and 3.3.2</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch does the following:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>implements a print-window facility for xterm. Though useful
|
|
in itself, I added it as part of some debugging which I am
|
|
doing. (Occasionally during an exposure event xterm fails to
|
|
restore the proper colors for highlighted text, and printing
|
|
the screen will show the internal states nicely).
|
|
|
|
<p>The print facility now also displays the color
|
|
information. (I will probably make this a resource).</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modified the xterm-16color terminfo description to use the
|
|
setaf and setab strings, which is a little more efficient
|
|
(requested by Stephen Marley).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>reduced some clutter of the ifdef/includes (e.g., stdlib.h,
|
|
unistd.h, errno) making the configure script test for these.
|
|
|
|
<p>I removed the symbols Size_t and Time_t, since they no
|
|
longer serve a useful purpose.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added some debugging traces to show the initial screen
|
|
size, and the success/failure of the ioctl calls pass handle
|
|
window resizing events to the application (for Clint Olsen).
|
|
|
|
<p>I also modified the trace code to produce two files since
|
|
some of the information is produced by the child process. So
|
|
now they are Trace-parent.out and Trace-child.out</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>updated configure test for ANSI compiler options to handle
|
|
a special case for HP-UX 10.x (reported by Clint Olsen).</li>
|
|
</ul>

forward from xterm to xterm ever since about X11R4. What they

do is add an option so that when an iconified xterm receives

beeps the bell; deiconifying the xterm removes the '*** '. Over

<p>This patch corrects some minor bugs in xterm, and fills in
|
|
some more details in the VT220 emulation:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>modify Imakefile to use SpecialCObjectRule for menu and
|
|
data modules, making xterm build properly if logging is enabled
|
|
(patch by Scott Sewall <scott@iprg.nokia.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>restore "ich" capability to terminfo entries, since Michael
|
|
Schroeder points out that "ich1" is the one which is the
|
|
problem in Solaris vi.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct color of cursor, which would disappear on
|
|
inverse-video since the initialization did not compare the
|
|
cursor color against both foreground and background (reported
|
|
by Olivier Calle).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct abbreviation-test for -version and -help options,
|
|
making command-line option -vb work (reported by Stefan
|
|
Dalibor).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a dependency between ifdef's for OPT_I18N_SUPPORT
|
|
and OPT_INPUT_METHOD (reported by Stefan Dalibor).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>split-out character-set translations as new module
|
|
charsets.c, to implement VT220 national replacement character
|
|
sets (a mode where some of the characters are displayed as
|
|
specific European glyphs). This relies on xterm using an ISO
|
|
8859-1 font (approach suggested by Kenneth R. Robinette
|
|
<zkrr01@mailbox.neosoft.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a missing increment, which made SS2 and SS3
|
|
controls repeat the shifted character.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add xterm-nrc to terminfo to illustrate the VT220 national
|
|
replacement character sets.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>reformat terminfo using new ncurses tic option "-f", which
|
|
makes if/then/else/endif expressions easier to read.</li>
|
|
</ul>

<h1><a name="xterm_69" id="xterm_69">Patch #69 - 1998/3/16 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ad and 3.3.2</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This corrects the problem in xterm with utmp, reported by
|
|
Olivier Calle <olivier@tc.fluke.com> as well as some other
|
|
people after the XFree86 3.3.2 release.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The error was introduced by my patch #53 in XFree86 3.9r
|
|
(October 1997).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The correction removes the reset of setuid/setgid before the
|
|
main event loop, and solves the problem which I had worked around
|
|
in a different manner: for some reason, the particular waitpid()
|
|
call in creat_as() hangs, does not return when the child process
|
|
exits. I changed the ifdef's to force the Linux configuration to
|
|
use wait() instead. This call appears to work properly on other
|
|
platforms such as SunOS and Solaris.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>I also added tests in the standalone configure script to check
|
|
for the existence of waitpid().</p>

<h1><a name="xterm_68" id="xterm_68">Patch #68 - 1998/3/4 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ad and 3.3.1z</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This corrects another problem with the logic for
|
|
highlightColor resource. As reported by David Dawes:</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>I've just noticed a problem with with the "inverse" control
|
|
sequence (ESC[7m) with the 3.3.2 xterm. What it does is sets
|
|
the background black, and the text the usual foreground colour
|
|
rather than simply swapping the foreground/background.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>This appears to be because when I added logic to check that
|
|
the highlightColor was distinct from foreground and background
|
|
colors, I did not add a further check to see that it was not
|
|
black (I would make an explicit check for the resource not being
|
|
set, but see nothing definite in the headers that would let me
|
|
reference an explicitly-undefined Pixel value, though there are
|
|
some implications in xpm.h). But this should work.</p>

|
|
XFree86 3.9Ad and 3.3.1e</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch does the following:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>improve test for highlightColor so that xterm does not
|
|
attempt to use that unless it is different from the foreground
|
|
and background colors (reported by Stefan Dalibor
|
|
<Stefan.Dalibor@informatik.uni-erlangen.de>.
|
|
|
|
<p>I could not reproduce this until I noticed that the -rev
|
|
option exposed it nicely.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>remove ich and ich1 from xterm and xterm-8bit terminfo
|
|
descriptions. SVr4 terminfo documents that you must not combine
|
|
these with smir/rmir, but ncurses allows it, opening a hole.
|
|
Solaris 2.6 vi does not work properly if it is using a terminfo
|
|
description when these are combined, since it was written to
|
|
accommodate old terminals that required it (reported by Stephen
|
|
Marley).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>restore 1-pixel overlap of scrollbar border with left edge
|
|
of window (reported by Jim Burmeister
|
|
<jimb@metrolink.com>).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add a configure option, --enable-logfile-exec, which allows
|
|
the user to specify a pipe for logfile. This defines
|
|
ALLOWLOGFILEEXEC.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>makes the ALLOWLOGFILEEXEC code compile & run, if

XFree86 3.9Ad and 3.3.1d</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This fixes the problem reported with failure to build the
|
|
<em>resize</em> program (BSDI, OSF/1) due to not having
|
|
<termcap.h>, by changing the ifdef to one that would be set
|
|
only if the file exists (not currently specified, except by the
|
|
standalone configure script). We do not really need to include
|
|
<termcap.h> to build, but only for a clean compile, since
|
|
it may declare the tgetent() prototype. I also updated the
|
|
man-page for <em>resize</em>, since I had recently noticed that

it can be used to resize <em>xterm</em> using the "Sun" control

XFree86 3.9Ad and 3.3.1c</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This is a small patch to xterm's 8-bit terminal description. I
|
|
noticed while testing ncurses that I had specified the wrong
|
|
(VT100-style) codes for the F1-F4. Xterm only uses VT220-style

function keys in 8-bit mode.</p>

|
<h1><a name="xterm_64" id="xterm_64">Patch #64 - 1998/2/8 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ad</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This fixes the following problems with xterm:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>save/restore the ANSI foreground and background colors with
|
|
the other visible attributes in the save-cursor and
|
|
restore-cursor operations. This works around a problem with
|
|
vim, which apparently assumed that switching between the normal
|
|
and alternate screens resets the colors (reported by Jim Battle
|
|
<jb@chromatic.com>).
|
|
|
|
<p>It would be nice to implement save/restore cursor as a
|
|
stack (and solve this type of problem completely), but that
|
|
would lead to incompatibility with applications which assume
|
|
they are running with a VT100 or VT220.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrects behavior of a restore-cursor operation which does
|
|
not follow a save-cursor (it is supposed to set the character
|
|
sets to a known initial state).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>extends the sunKeyboard resource (and menu toggle) to
|
|
modify the home, end and delete keys on a Sun or PC editing
|
|
keypad, making them generate codes compatible with DEC VT220's
|
|
Find, Select and Remove keys.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrects a length in checking command-line options, which
|
|
caused the "-help" message to not work when X was not
|
|
running.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add some detail to the man-page (requested by Jason Bacon
|
|
<acadix@execpc.com>)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modify the standalone configure script to ignore the broken
|
|
nsl and socket libraries on IRIX 6.2 (the ones on 5.2 also are
|
|
broken, so this change just widens the check for the system
|
|
version number).</li>

<h1><a name="xterm_63" id="xterm_63">Patch #63 - 1998/2/5 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ad</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This is another patch from Bjorn Helgaas
|
|
<helgaas@rsn.hp.com>, which I've reviewed (and learned
|
|
some). Following are his notes:</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>I poked around some more and finally got xterm-62 to build and
|
|
run cleanly on HP-UX 10.20. Here are the patches. They look sort
|
|
of ugly, so here's a little explanation:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>aclocal.m4: Removed side effects from the AC_CACHE_VAL
|
|
commands in CF_FUNC_TGETENT. Previously, LIBS was set inside
|
|
AC_CACHE_VAL, which worked fine the first time configure was
|
|
run, but failed if there were cached values.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>aclocal.m4: Added temporary setting of LIBS before
|
|
AC_TRY_LINK in CF_FUNC_TGETENT. Previously, the last value set
|
|
by the AC_TRY_RUN loop was used, so only -lcurses was
|
|
checked.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>configure.in: Added temporary setting of CPPFLAGS before
|
|
AC_CHECK_HEADERS for X11 files. Previously
|
|
<X11/DECkeysym.h> and <X11/Xpoll.h> were found only
|
|
if they were in the compiler's default include directories,
|
|
even if `--x-includes=DIR' had been used or AC_PATH_XTRA had
|
|
found them elsewhere.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>The problem on HP-UX was that we were linking with -lcurses
|
|
rather than -ltermcap due to the second bullet above, and
|
|
apparently something in HP-UX curses is broken. This seems very
|
|
strange, because the only thing used is tgetent, which should
|
|
affect any tty/pty configuration, but I lost interest in tracking
|
|
down the exact problem.</p>

<h1><a name="xterm_62" id="xterm_62">Patch #62 - 1998/1/23 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ac</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This is a patch mostly by Bjorn Helgaas
|
|
<helgaas@dhc.net> (I added the os2main.c change, and a
|
|
little of the documentation). From Bjorn's description:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>If you use the "-hc <color>" option or set the
|
|
"highlightColor" resource, text is highlighted by changing only
|
|
the background color, rather than using reverse video. I find
|
|
this easier to read, especially when selecting multi-colored
|
|
text, and it is similar to the way Netscape shows
|
|
selections.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>Most of the code changes are under "#if
|
|
OPT_HIGHLIGHT_COLOR". The principal exception is in screen.c,
|
|
where I added a couple calls to resetXtermGC(). This seems like
|
|
it could be a bug even without the color highlighting changes
|
|
(though I don't pretend to understand all the logic).</li>

|
</ul>

<h1><a name="xterm_61" id="xterm_61">Patch #61 - 1998/1/17 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ac</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch modifies the reset behavior of xterm slightly:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>change the terminfo entry so that rs1 (one of the strings
|
|
used by the 'reset' program) does a hard reset rather than
|
|
switching character sets. This is more in accord with other
|
|
terminal descriptions.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modifies the treatment of hard reset by the xterm program
|
|
to reset the saved lines.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrects hard reset by also resetting user-defined keys,
|
|
i.e., DECUDK.</li>
|
|
</ul>

|
<h1><a name="xterm_60" id="xterm_60">Patch #60 - 1998/1/10 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9Ab</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This fixes some minor bugs and adds new functionality:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add support for blinking text.
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>This does not actually cause the text to flash, but
|
|
text with the blink attribute can be displayed in color,
|
|
using new resources colorBL and colorBLMode.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>If colors are not used, the blinking text will be
|
|
displayed as before (just like bold). The main purpose of
|
|
this is to make applications work properly when they assume
|
|
the emulator supports blinking text.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>I did this by moving the per-cell LINEWRAPPED flag to a
|
|
per-line flag, to make room for the new BLINK flag. There
|
|
were no per-line flags, so this changes a lot of
|
|
logic.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected missing save-cursor logic in the handling of SGR
|
|
1048 (the new control sequence I added in patch #54,
|
|
1997/10/17). Reported by Darren Hiebert.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>flush the output of the transparent printing after each
|
|
line Reported by Tomas Vanhala
|
|
<vanhala@ling.helsinki.fi>.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct the modes that are affected by save/restore cursor
|
|
by adding WRAPAROUND and PROTECTED.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected placement of one of the XSync calls that I added
|
|
in patch #51, 1997/9/15, which had the side-effect of writing
|
|
on the window border when the xterm was resizing from 132 to 80
|
|
columns.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>work around an incompatibility of the XKB definition used
|
|
in xterm versus that symbol from IRIX 6.2's imake definitions
|
|
(by adjusting the standalone configure script).</li>

<li>I chose to do this by rendering the characters on a

applications to display varying numbers of characters on

each line.</li>
|
|
|

<li>Except that this forces the display to be wider, it

works reasonably well. A couple of special cases (reverse +

<p>This patch is based on analysis by Arfst Ludwig
|
|
<arfst@luxor.IN-Berlin.DE>, who reported:</p>
|
|
|
|
<blockquote>
|
|
<p>Setting the following resources xterm (all current versions)
|
|
receives a segmentation fault on <Btn2Up> after

<p>And here is how it works (and a fix!): The widget given to

the action handler as first argument is not guaranteed to be a

XtermWidget (it can be the ScrollbarWidget). Instead of

accessing the widget's member directly XtDisplay gives the

required pointer in a safe way.</p>

</blockquote>
|
|
|
|
<p>I noticed that this was not the only instance (by reading the

code, and testing with his example), and extended the solution to

check the widget-class to ensure that it is indeed xterm's widget

class before attempting to use it in the context of

translations.</p>

<p>Some of the changes are interrelated (it was an unusually busy

<ul>
|
|
<li>change the default resource value for colorMode to true,

|
|
(reported by Michael Schroeder).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add resource boldColors, command-line options +pc and -pc

|
mapping bold colors 0 through 7 to colors 8 through 15.

(request by Pablo Ariel Kohan).</li>
|

|
Olsen).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a conflict between colorULMode/colorBDMode versus
|
|
ANSI colors, where exposure events would occasionally pick up
|
|
the former (e.g., colorBD) rather than ANSI colors. Testing the
|
|
colorAttrMode made this apparent, though it has been in the

|
code since 3.2A (patch #35 in Jan 1997).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct two problems with the optional logging support. On
|
|
Linux at least, the waitpid call in creat_as hangs when the
|
|
logging is toggled from the popup menu. Also, the mktemp
|
|
template has the wrong number of X's (since X11R5!). Fixed the

waitpid problem by exploiting the fact that the setuid behavior

is reset before the popup menus are available. (reported by

XFree86 3.9p</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>Most of this patch is related to the standalone configure
|
|
script, though there are fixes/enhancements as well:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add a new resource sunKeyboard, with associated
|
|
command-line option and menu-toggle that allows using a normal
|
|
Sun or PC keyboard to generated the complete DEC-style function
|
|
keys and keypad.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct a reversed foreground/background test in the
|
|
control sequence that replies with the current SGR
|
|
settings.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct, by invoking XSync, a display problem that caused
|
|
the program to not properly update newly exposed areas when a
|
|
font change or 80/132 resize request was not completely
|
|
accepted.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>restructured autoconf macros (I made a library of all of
|
|
the macros across the complicated configure scripts I'm working
|
|
on).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>use the autoconf config.guess and config.sub scripts to
|
|
better identify the host-os.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>improve the configure script that uses 'imake' as a
|
|
fallback for definitions.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct several instances of unsigned/signed mixed
|
|
expressions.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>I've tested the configure script on Linux, SunOS 4.1.3,
|
|
Solaris 2.5.1, IRIX 5.2 and 6.2, AIX 3.2.5 and CLIX 3.1 (all but
|
|
the last run properly as well).</p>

|
|
XFree86 3.9m</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This is a collection of small fixes, and a couple of minor
|
|
enhancements:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>plug a security hole in the implementation of Media Copy
|
|
(print) by invoking setuid just before the main loop.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add an ifdef'd include for <sys/termio.h> for HP-UX,
|
|
which allows the program to process SIGWINCH events (this is a
|
|
bug in X11R6.3)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add state-table entries for VT52 emulation to enter/exit
|
|
keypad application mode.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>disable the popup-menu entry for 8-bit controls when the
|
|
terminal-id is less than 200 (e.g., VT52 or VT100).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>ensure that the popup-menu entry for 8-bit controls is
|
|
updated when the application enables/disables this mode,
|
|
including the response to a full-reset.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>implement VT300 DECBKM feature: set interpretation of the
|
|
backarrow key to either backspace or delete. The initial
|
|
setting is via resource; it can also be modified in the main
|
|
popup menu.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>implement VTxxx KAM (ISO AM), which allows a keyboard to be
|
|
locked (i.e., the terminal discards input).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>implement VTxxx SRM, which is used to control local echoing
|
|
of input on the terminal.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add terminfo and termcap entries for xterm-8bit, a
|
|
variation of the xterm description that uses 8-bit control
|
|
characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add fallback definitions for Imakefile to allow it to work
|
|
on some X11R5 systems that have no SpecialCObjectRule or
|
|
ProgramTargetName macros.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add .c.o and .c.i rules to standalone Makefile.in</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct order of -lXmu and -lXext in standalone configure
|
|
script.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure script options to allow selective disabling
|
|
of active-icon, input-method and i18n code (mainly for users
|
|
with X11R5 or an incomplete X11R6 configuration).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change menu-indices from #define's to enum values, thereby
|
|
making it work better with the ifdef's for logging and
|
|
active-icon (the X11R6.3 active-icon code is incorrectly
|
|
ifdef'd; this corrects an error introduced by incorporating
|
|
that code).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct minor compile errors in the configuration where
|
|
active-icon is not used.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add configure option to suppress echoing of long compiler
|
|
commands</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>correct spelling of decTerminalID in configure script help
|
|
message</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>use gcc __attribute__((unused)) to quiet warnings about

unused parameters when compiling with -W (to make it simpler to
|
|
find the real problems).</li>

<p>This is a patch to provide test-support for some work I'm

|
<p>This fixes the problem reported with xterm's cursor color

removes some duplicate initialization of the cursor GC's. If the

<h1><a name="xterm_44" id="xterm_44">Patch #44 - 1997/6/22 -
|
|
XFree86 3.9g</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This implements the first part of the VT100 doublesize
|
|
characters for xterm, as well as fixing a handful of bugs:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>the doublesize character support uses the normal font
|
|
(using scaled fonts will be another patch) with blanks to
|
|
simulate doublesize characters. This patch does most of the
|
|
global changes that'll be required. I've hidden most of the
|
|
details in macros and ifdef's so it's easy to configure out
|
|
(part of the patch is a configure option for that
|
|
purpose).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected limits in DeleteChar() function -- it's always
|
|
ignored the size of the left border and scrollbar. I noticed
|
|
this when working on the doublesize characters since the glitch
|
|
was doubled in size (i.e., it wrapped some garbage around the
|
|
right margin).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected 'memmove()' logic, for standalone builds (it
|
|
referenced a malloc wrapper from my development library).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add a check for HideCursor() to prevent repeated screen
|
|
updates (which can cause a spurious cursor glitch to appear,
|
|
e.g., during scrolling). I noticed this with the 3.2A version
|
|
(but only a few weeks ago, when I started working on this
|
|
patch).</li>

|

|
<p>Bram Moolenaar reported that the cursor color changed
|
|
unexpectedly while scrolling. The cause was that it used the same

GC's as the logic that draws the ANSI colors. The bug only

appears if the cursorColor resource isn't set, and has been

<p>This implements a simple configuration script with autoconf

|
following:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>

<li>enables/disables the configuration ifdef's for ANSI color

|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>It does not make tests for the things that imake does (that's
|
|
another project), instead it uses a hybrid of the autoconf tests
|
|
for libraries and adds imake's compiler options (which are

|
|
|
|
<p>This patch does the following:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>combines the coding for foreground and background colors
|
|
into a single byte, reducing the memory required to store
|
|
saved-lines in color. (I'll take back that byte in a following
|
|
patch to use to ensure the character-set, so there's no
|
|
long-term decrease in memory use).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modifies the PF1-PF4 coding in termcap/terminfo. Because
|
|
xterm is still by default emulating vt100, the function key
|
|
codes are vt100-compatible (I overlooked this in patch #31). I
|
|
also reformatted the whole terminfo file into a single-column,
|
|
for consistency.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>adds an interim xterm-vt220 description to accommodate the

better to drop the old-style altogether).</li>

|

|
<p>This patch does the following:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>implement DECSTR (soft terminal reset). The biggest diff is
|
|
due to adding another state table (note that there's only one
|
|
useful state here, but it's only 256 bytes rather than 1k as it
|
|
would have been before I reduced the size of state
|
|
entries).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>some minor tidying up (e.g., signed/unsigned use bitcpy,
|
|
MODE_DECCKM, resetColor, resetCharsets). More is done in patch

#35.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|

<p>I got the description of DECSTR from a vt420 user's manual.

<p>This adds to the reset-fix by Matthieu Herrb

<Mathieu.Herrb@mipnet.fr> a small change to make xterm able

to output 8-bit characters in VT100 mode. Applications that run

|
|
XFree86 3.1.2Gb</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch does the following:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>corrects the restoration of color for bold/underline color
|
|
mode</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>adds a resource 'decTerminalID' to control the reporting
|
|
level of xterm (e.g., VT100, VT220).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>uses the new resource to implement/correct the DA1, DA2 and
|
|
DECRPTUI reports.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>change valid-response code in DECRQSS from 0 to 1 (the
|
|
manual says 0, but the VT420 terminal I've been testing on says
|
|
1).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>All of these changes are based on vttest 2.6</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>(Most of the volume in the patch is to add 2 more state tables
|
|
for parsing the 2nd/3rd device-attribute controls).</p>

|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>handle SGR 22, 24 and 25 in combination with colorUL and

<p>Here's a patch to fix a problem with xterm's cut/paste and

|
|
<p>Here's a correction for two minor bugs that I picked up in

|
|
incorrectly:</p>
|
|
|

<ul>

<li>make the second alternate font the same as the first

|
|
<p>This patch does several things. In effect, xterm can (I think)
|
|
do a reasonably good job of emulating vt220 and vt320 terminals
|
|
(as well as it was doing vt100, at any rate ;-).</p>

<p>It does NOT do:</p>
|

|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>soft fonts</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>rigel or sixel graphics</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>Anyway, I:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>added ECH, CPL, CNL, SU, SD, CBT, CHT controls</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added popup-menu for switching between DEC and Sun function
|
|
keys. (corrected alignment err wrt logging entry at that
|
|
point).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>make xterm recognize both 8-bit and 7-bit controls
|
|
(including popup menu for switching modes).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add user-definable function keys (aka DECUDK)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>support concealed text</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>support protected text (both ISO compatible and DEC
|
|
compatible - that's not the same thing, btw), with SPA, EPA,
|
|
DECSCA, DECSED, DECSEL controls.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>implement DECSCL.</li>

|
|
<p>I'll be continuing to test this patch for a while, but don't
|
|
expect to add any new functionality (it passes all of the current
|
|
tests I've built in vttest, but I need to make more tests)..</p>

<p>Also:</p>
|

<ul>
|

<li>during initialization, check if ANSI colors are set with

treat width=0 or height=0 literally -- maybe that's a feature,

<li>minor tweak to the screen-repainting when resizing (I still

cannot entirely get rid of flicker).</li>

<p>Adam Tla/lka <atlka@pg.gda.pl> told me a couple of weeks

clear-to-bottom and clear-to-end-of-line operations, I'd

overlooked the insert/delete lines. Just so I wouldn't overlook
|
|
any more of these, I updated a copy of vttest to test ISO colors
|
|
and bce (background color erase). This patch introduces a new

|
function, ClearCurBackground, whose calls replace the direct

XClearArea calls that I'd overlooked. (There's also a few

compiler warnings fixed, etc ;-)</p>

|
|
<li>reformatted the terminfo description in a single-column

can't do that for termcap, since it would impact buffer

<li>omitted obsolete features in termcap to save a little space
|
|
(bs, pt)</li>
|

|
<li>added color capabilities to termcap (ut, Co, NC, op, AB,
|
|
AF)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected some capabilities (vi, ve)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added 'st' (set tab)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>reduced function keys in termcap for 'xterm' to 12 because
|
|
color capabilities makes that description larger than 1023
|
|
characters.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>created new termcap name 'xtermm' (monochrome) to match the
|
|
terminfo list, and make that description have 20 function
|
|
keys.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added corresponding color capabilities to terminfo (bce,
|
|
colors, pairs, op, ncv, setab, setaf)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>corrected corresponding capabilities in terminfo (civis,
|
|
cnorm, rmcup, smcup)</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added capabilities (el1, hts)</li>
|
|
|

|
XFree86 3.1.2Cd</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>I observed an occasional glitch in the xterm's color behavior;
|
|
a clear to end of line would get a color that had been used in a
|
|
program that supposedly reset colors. I traced this down to the
|
|
way xterm was modifying colors of GC's on the fly; it didn't
|
|
restore the original color of the GC, even though it would later
|
|
be used in functions (such as ClearRight) that assumed (my error)
|
|
that the GC would have the current foreground or background
|
|
color.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>I fixed this by resetting the GC's colors with a new function
|
|
'resetXtermGC()', and direct calls on
|
|
SGR_Foreground/SGR_Background, as appropriate and using a new
|
|
function 'updatedXtermGC()' to encapsulate the logic that
|
|
modifies the GC's color. (I also removed some commented-out code

that was trying to do this -- the problem was a little more

obscure).</p>

<h1><a name="xterm_07" id="xterm_07">Patch #7 - 1996/1/28 -
|
|
XFree86 3.1.2n</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>I did a (clean) build of 3.1.2n on Linux 1.2.13 (ELF). I've
|
|
got an S3 card.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This fixes the following in the 3.1.2n xterm:</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>initialize cur_foreground, cur_background in charproc.c
|
|
(Purify told me they weren't initialized).</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add interpretation of codes 39, 49, to reset background and
|
|
foreground to default value (I'm told that ISO 6429 does this;
|
|
but I don't have a written reference -- yet -- can anyone help
|
|
here?). Anyway, rxvt does it, and it'll solve my remaining
|
|
color management problems.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>shadowing of 'time' in menu.c</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>'Cardinal' vs 'int' in scrollbar.c</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>several changes to permit compile with X11R5 (the system
|
|
that I've got Purify on won't be upgraded to X11R6 for a long
|
|
time).</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
<p>I built this version (with a minor nit that I'll patch soon)
|
|
on SunOS 4.1.3 so that I can test it some more with Purify.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p><em>btw</em>: the changes made in Xpoll.h won't work on some
|
|
older systems, because fd_set isn't a defined type (I've got one
|
|
machine at least that this applies to).</p>

<h1><a name="xterm_06" id="xterm_06">Patch #6 - 1996/1/8</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch does all of the SGR foreground/background fixes
|
|
(i.e., clearing the screen after an SGR color is set causes that
|
|
color to be used in the foreground and/or background). If the
|
|
FG_COLOR and/or BG_COLOR flags aren't set, then the xterm
|
|
foreground and background default to the window's values. This
|
|
usage is consistent with various types of hardware (especially
|
|
the IBM PC), and is also used in rxvt.</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>charproc.c:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>add/use new macros GET_FG, GET_BG - n/c.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>add/use new functions SGR_Foreground() and
|
|
SGR_Background() to set corresponding colors in GC's, and
|
|
to retain sense of "original" colors.
|
|
|
|
<p>=> This makes redundant some of the corresponding
|
|
logic in HideCursor to set the foreground and background,
|
|
but I left it in since it <em>may</em> be fixing an
|
|
unrelated requirement.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>set GC's in LoadNewFont() according to whether the SGR
|
|
fg/bg colors are active.
|
|
|
|
<p>=> This fixes some glitches in the accompanying
|
|
resize, that leaves parts of the window in the original
|
|
background color.</p>
|
|
</li>

</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>screen.c:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>modified ClearBufRows() to use the SGR fg/bg colors if
|
|
they're set.</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>added function ScrnClearLines(), used this to replace
|
|
portions of ScrnInsertLine() and ScrnDeleteLine(). The new
|
|
function uses the SGR fg/bg colors if they're set.
|
|
|
|
<p>=> Otherwise, selection after an index or reverse
|
|
index will paint the wrong colors.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>modified ScrnDeleteChar() and ScrnInsertChar() to use
|
|
SGR fg/bg colors.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li>util.c:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>modified ClearRight() so that if either of the SGR
|
|
fg/bg colors is set, we don't bzero the attributes and
|
|
color arrays, but instead fill them with the appropriate
|
|
codes.</li>
|
|
|

<li>modified ClearLeft to use SGR fg/bg colors.</li>

<h1><a name="xterm_05" id="xterm_05">Patch #5 - 1996/1/7</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This patch modifies the object code, by replacing indexing
|
|
expressions with temporary variables with the full indexing
|
|
expression. At first glance, this seems inefficient (it did to me
|
|
;-), until remembering comments made in the compilers newsgroups
|
|
that trying to "help" the compiler doesn't really work that well.
|
|
A good optimizing compiler can do a better job than the
|
|
programmer can. (There's a moral in the use of 'register'
|
|
variables also, but I won't fix those...).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Anyway, the revised code generates a smaller object...</p>

macros, to pick up references to ScrnBuf data directly, and

added MAX_PTRS symbol to pick up those '4' constants strewn

|
|
|
|
<p>This is my second patch to xterm. It corrects most of the gcc

|
warnings (except for some that are due to X header files ;-). I

compared objects to keep track of the changes that don't affect

the object code (n/c) versus those that do.</p>

<h1><a name="xterm_01" id="xterm_01">Patch #1 - 1996/1/6</a></h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This is my first cleanup patch for xterm. It addresses all of
|
|
the gcc warnings for -Wall, -Wmissing-prototypes and
|
|
-Wstrict-prototypes that I can change without modifying the
|
|
object code. (I'm compiling this with gcc 2.7.0 for an aout
|
|
target, which makes it simple to compare objects. When I do
|
|
ELF-only, I've got a tool that compares that sort of thing as
|
|
well).</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Briefly, this patch adds (and uses) two header files in the
|
|
xterm directory:</p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
proto.h
|
|
xterm.h
|
|
</pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>I expect this to be the biggest patch by far. However (barring
|
|
a misplaced prototype), it shouldn't break anything, since the
|
|
intent of the patch is to provide missing declarations.</p>
