1-- $Id: CHANGES,v 1.683 2020/03/27 21:14:23 tom Exp $ 2-- Thomas E. Dickey <dickey@invisible-island.net> 3 4This version of dialog was originally from a Debian snapshot. I've done this 5to it: 6 72020/03/27 8 + add clarification in manual page to show when the single/double 9 quotes may be needed (prompted by discussion with Danilo G Baio). 10 + fix an extra ".exe" in makefile.in which prevented Cygwin build. 11 + fix most cppcheck warnings 12 + tailbox/tailboxbg's exit-button now works with mouse-clicks 13 + fix repainting while resizing for the editbox widget. 14 + add configure-check for curses_exit() from ncurses 6.2 15 + fix a few memory leaks in fselect.c, mixedgauge.c when resizing. 16 + fix inconsistency in dlg_string_to_argv() which made the checklist9 17 example not work. 18 + add empty-string check in dlg_print_listitem() to avoid indexing past 19 the end of the array of character-offsets. 20 + improve handling of KEY_RESIZE by repainting the backtitle after 21 clearing the screen (integrated patch by Rainer Weikusat, Debian 22 #954185). 23 + improve logic for wtimeout() calls which are used to set temporary 24 non-blocking reads (prompted by patch by Rainer Weikusat, Debian 25 #954220). 26 + add "make check" rule. 27 + updated configure-macros. 28 292020/02/28 30 + updated configure-macros, to work around ncurses vs xcode's c99 -W 31 + update config.guess 32 332019/12/31 34 + updated configure-macros. 35 + update config.guess 36 372019/12/10 38 + correct rc-file lookup of "default" color (report by Grady Martin, 39 cf: 2019/09/24). 40 + fix several issues in the sample scripts reported by shellcheck. 41 + fix a few spelling errors reported by codespell (report by Jens 42 Schleusener). 43 + correct check for return-value of isblank(), which is not necessarily 44 0/1 (report/patch by Paul Cercueil, Peter Korsgaard, cf: 2018/05/31). 45 462019/12/09 47 + amend change for parsing command-options before calling init_dialog, 48 to handle --no-shadow, etc., which are initialized in init_dialog 49 (report by Paul Cercueil, cf: 2018/06/21). 50 + add dlg_trace_va_msg to manpage, symbol files. 51 522019/11/10 53 + improve layout of several widgets' data area when maximizing. 54 + modify dselect/fselect to work with autosizing (Debian #915949). 55 + add error messages from dlg_exiterr() to trace file. 56 + improve manual page description of escaping in key-bindings. 57 + modify inputmenu to recognize the "Cancel" button and keys bound to 58 that feature while editing a renamed menu item. 59 + revert one change, in form.c to the --last-key feature (Debian 60 #942025). 61 + correct ordering of libraries in configure-script, which appended 62 in a case where it should have prepended. 63 + update config.guess, config.sub 64 652019/09/26 66 + improve dialog-config script's filtering of -L options using the 67 linker default directories. 68 + improve dialog-config script, adding a -L option corresponding to 69 the configure --libdir option if it would be a duplicate (report by 70 Andrew Kosteltsev). 71 + build-fix for configure --disable-trace 72 + updated pt.po from 73 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 74 752019/09/24 76 + allow for underline- and reverse-video flags in the ".rc" file 77 (integrated patch by Richard Robbins). 78 792019/08/08 80 + amend change to --last-key feature to eliminate an unnecessary 81 separator (report by Gabriele Balducci). 82 832019/08/06 84 + extend --last-key feature to the remaining widgets which have 85 ok/cancel buttons, and add logic to map keys which happen to be 86 bound to ok/extra/cancel/help to simulate a button-press on the 87 corresponding button (report by "sgewrk"). 88 892019/08/01 90 + further fixes for dialog-config.in (report by Andrew Kosteltsev). 91 922019/07/28 93 + modify dialog-config.in so that setting prefix or exec-prefix to 94 a given value with --prefix=VALUE or --exec-prefix=VALUE has the 95 expected result of changing bindir, etc. 96 + correct substitution for $LIBS value in dialog-config.in (report by 97 Andrew Kosteltsev). 98 992019/07/24 100 + modify dlg_will_resize() and dlg_result_key() functions to reduce 101 the chance that dialog exits on a SIGWINCH (Debian #930775). 102 + make test-package for the development headers/library 103 + add --libs-only-L, etc., to dialog-config script (prompted by 104 discussion with Andrew Kosteltsev). 105 + fix a memory leak in gauge widget (Andrew Kosteltsev). 106 + minor fix for CF_GCC_WARNINGS 107 + update config.guess, config.sub 108 1092019/02/11 110 + modify to work with ncurses' threaded-library, which does not allow 111 assignment to LINES/COLS (report by Marcus Roeckrath). 112 + correct clearing after text in progressbox from 2018/06/21 changes 113 for resizing (reports by David Boyd, Alan Somers). 114 + improved configure macros CF_GNU_SOURCE, CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE, 115 CF_XOPEN_SOURCE 116 + update config.guess, config.sub 117 1182018/11/07 119 + convert ja.po to UTF-8 for consistency (suggested by Stanislav 120 Brabec). 121 + repair mis-encoded hi.po (report/analysis by Stanislav Brabec). 122 1232018/10/22 124 + improved configure macros CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS, CF_LD_RPATH_OPT, 125 CF_LIBRARY_PATH, CF_SHARED_OPTS, CF_WITH_MAN2HTML, 126 CF_WITH_VERSIONED_SYMS from ncurses 127 + add ast.po, from 128 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 129 1302018/06/21 131 + improve file-offset computation in textbox.c (Werner Fink). 132 + fix an overlooked case with real_auto_size() to maximize when 133 height or width is given as -1. 134 + build-fixes for configure options "--disable-Xdialog2" and 135 "--disable-form" 136 + add traces for each widget to show its parameters. 137 + modify color scheme for mixedgauge to use the dialog window colors, 138 like the captions. 139 + fix a too-small malloc in the mixedgauge widget. 140 + fix a use-after-free in dlg_remove_callback(). 141 + improve handling of SIGWINCH for several widgets (Debian #865840). 142 + menubox, the point of the Debian report was that it would be nice 143 to increase the window size if the terminal size increases. Did 144 that as a special case less problematic than decreasing the 145 terminal size. Added samples/menubox11 to demonstrate by 146 comparison with menubox10 a problem with debconf which puts extra 147 newlines in the caption that interfere with autowrap. 148 + progressbox and derived prgbox, programbox, now handle resizing. 149 + yesno, window was cleared 150 + add dlg_ttysize() to support new options, allowing scripts to obtain 151 some text-formatting details without initializing the terminal. 152 + add options --print-text-only, and --print-text-size for scripts that 153 adjust the widget size according to how the captions are formatted. 154 + improve dialog.pl: 155 + add demo.pl, to demonstrate the functions 156 + quote/escape string parameters passed to dialog. 157 + ensure all "integer" parameters are really integers. 158 + use actual screensize for list captions rather than assuming 24 159 lines. 160 + when trimming blanks, treat unconverted tabs the same as spaces. 161 + correct parameter to test when trimming blanks from the script, 162 e.g., with "--trim" (report by Jarno Suni). 163 + improve documentation of the various whitespace-filtering options, 164 to show which take precedence (Debian #867536, cf: Debian #102942). 165 + modify msgbox.c, yesno.c to bind SCROLLKEY_BINDINGS before 166 TRAVERSE_BINDINGS so that up/down arrow will by default scroll the 167 message up/down rather than be aliases for tab-traversal (report by 168 Fredrik Kers). 169 + modify dump_one_binding() to show when a binding is overridden. 170 + improve format of trace-file, making comment-syntax consistent, 171 as well as showing argv-splitting as a series of comments. 172 + modify dlg_string_to_argv() to change the quoting behavior to be 173 more consistent with shell behavior (patch by Denilson Sa Maia). 174 + modify dlg_getc() to return ESC when a timeout expires, notifying 175 callers that a quit occurred rather than exiting the application 176 (suggested by Rodrigo Freitas). 177 + modify handle_inputs() to ensure cursor-visibility is restored when 178 there is no input character available (report by Guillaume Vareille). 179 + improve comment in manual page regarding which widgets can use the 180 "--help-button" (prompted by discussion with Csanyi Pal). 181 + add a check for valid object pointer in tailbox's main loop since 182 the getc-callback may have been freed within ui_getc.c (report by 183 "David"). 184 + improved configure macros for ncurses: CF_GNU_SOURCE, CF_SHARED_OPTS, 185 CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_CURSES_FUNCS, CF_NCURSES_CONFIG 186 + improved configure script checks for groff vs man2html: 187 CF_PROG_GROFF and CF_WITH_MAN2HTML 188 + build-fix from lynx for AM_WITH_NLS configure macro 189 + update config.guess, config.sub 190 1912017/12/09 192 + update ftp url in test-packages. 193 + modify test-packages to use recommended compiler/linker flags. 194 + improved configure macros AM_WITH_NLS, CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS, 195 CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_NCURSES_CONFIG, CF_SHARED_OPTS, CF_WITH_LIBTOOL, 196 CF__INTL_BODY. 197 + update config.guess, config.sub 198 1992017/05/09 200 + improved configure macros CF_ADD_CFLAGS, CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS, and 201 CF_SHARED_OPTS. 202 + updated hu.po and tr.po from 203 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 204 + update config.guess, config.sub 205 2062017/01/31 207 + use DLG_TRACE macro consistently to make "--disable-trace" configure 208 option work. 209 + modify buildlist widget to support option "--reorder" for to allow 210 user to reorder the data based on the sequence of selections 211 (discussion with Paraic O'Ceallaigh). 212 + fill background color on unused parts of buildlist. 213 + fix a minor error in buildlist which let pageup switch columns. 214 + change several calls to dlg_trace_msg to prefix with "#" to make 215 the trace logs more consistent for parsing. 216 + add samples/run_test.sh 217 + further improve performance with very long command-lines by changes 218 to howmany_tags(). 219 + modify dlg_string_to_argv() to convert escaped double-quotes to 220 plain double-quotes when within a double-quoted string. 221 + modify makefile to apply CFLAGS to linking 222 + modify dlg_string_to_argv() to ignore escaped newlines except when 223 quoted, fixing a problem with samples/checklist9. 224 + interpret $DIALOGOPTS before expanding "--file", etc., to allow 225 the environment variable to turn on tracing in that process. 226 + improve performance when processing very long command lines, e.g., 227 using "--file" by changing dialog_opts[] to an array of pointers to 228 the expanded argv[] (discussion with Lars Tauber). 229 + modified autoconf macros 230 + CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS amend the last change to move only the 231 preprocessor, optimization and warning flags to CPPFLAGS and 232 CFLAGS, leaving the residue in CC. That happens to work for gcc's 233 various "model" options, but may require tuning for other compilers 234 + CF_LARGEFILE workaround for clang exit-code vs warnings 235 + CF_MATH_LIB quiet strict gcc warning 236 + CF_WITH_LIBTOOL fix a few places in configure/build scripts where 237 DESTDIR and rpath were combined 238 + CF_XOPEN_SOURCE add "uclinux" to list of Linux's 239 + update config.guess, config.sub 240 2412016/11/20 242 + added fur.po (Friulian) from 243 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 244 2452016/08/28 246 + improve parsing and trace for "bindkey", to convert space to/from 247 "\s", as well as handle octal escapes for single byte characters. 248 + change explicit checks for space character used for select or toggle 249 to make this rebindable to "TOGGLE" (prompted by discussion with 250 Paul van Tilburg). 251 + add default bindings for cursor left/right to formbox. The cursor 252 left/right cases were replaced with rebindable symbols in 2005/12/07 253 without providing these keys as default values (report/patch by 254 Miroslav Lichvar). 255 + modified autoconf macros 256 + CF_PROG_LINT add cpplint to programs to use; drop ad hoc tdlint and 257 alint. 258 + CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS don't limit the check to -I, -U and -D options, 259 since the added options can include various compiler options before 260 and after preprocessor options. 261 + CF_GNU_SOURCE recent glibc (Debian 2.23-4 for example) has 262 misordered ifdef/checks for new symbol _DEFAULT_SOURCE, producing 263 warning messages when only _GNU_SOURCE is defined. Add a followup 264 check to define _DEFAULT_SOURCE. 265 + CF_XOPEN_SOURCE use _GNU_SOURCE for cygwin headers, tested with 266 cygwin 2.3, 2.5 (patch by Corinna Vinschen). 267 + mention --no-collapse option in manual page description of 268 --tab-correct option. 269 + update config.guess, config.sub 270 2712016/04/24 272 + fix a special case in drawing shadow on a line-drawing cell where the 273 alternate-character set flag was lost (report by Martin Kravec). 274 + fix a regression from 2015/05/13 changes for escaping; it is 275 necessary to retain backslashes within quotes to make "\Z" escapes 276 work (report by Marcin Krol). 277 + fix test package for RPMs; changes in 2015 omitted symbolic links 278 for the library. 279 + fix typo in help message for "--buildlist" (report by Rihards Olups). 280 + modified autoconf macros 281 + CF_PROG_AR, CF_AR_FLAGS added to improve check for archive tool. 282 + CF_LD_RPATH_OPT, change FreeBSD to use -Wl,-rpath rather than 283 -rpath option. According to FreeBSD #178732, either works since 284 FreeBSD 4.x; however scons does not accept anything except the 285 -Wl,-rpath form. 286 + CF_WITH_NCURSES_ETC, change from ncurses to check for pthreads 287 dependency. 288 2892016/02/09 290 + modify editbox widget to add a trailing newline if the text has none 291 to ensure the last line is not ignored (report by Florent Rougon). 292 + change mouse initialization to look for button-presses rather than 293 button-clicks, for better response. 294 + modify dump_curses_key() to show mouse-coding in readable form. 295 + correct mapping of mouse-clicks on the day-grid in calendar widget 296 when "--week-start" is used to set the start of the week (report by 297 Stefan Vogtner). 298 > integrated changes from Stefan Vogtner: 299 + use Gregorian algorithm for leap year 300 + use mktime if available; calendar was written just as it became 301 standard. 302 3032016/01/26 - release 1.3 304 + correct --infobox documentation, which said it shows an OK button. 305 + fix a couple of place in test-scripts which referred to $SIG_TRAP 306 rather than $SIG_QUIT 307 + reorganize dialog.3, to use subsections for generating navigation 308 pane, using man2html 309 + add "--week-start" option for calendar widget (prompted by discussion 310 with Stefan Vogtner). 311 + add a limit-check in editbox.c to ensure that mouse-clicks outside 312 the filled-in text area do not access past the end of the array 313 (report by Stefan Vogtner). 314 + update configure macros from ncurses changes. 315 + update config.guess, config.sub 316 3172015/09/20 318 + decrease table value for minimum number of arguments for the widgets 319 which use --no-items option (report by Raven Singularity). 320 + update configure macros: 321 + use $SHELL consistently, deprecate non-POSIX shell 322 + PKG_CONFIG may simply be unset - fix 323 + add option to allow changing ABI version, from ncurses6. 324 3252015/05/28 326 + fixes for two autoconf macros, CF_ADD_INCDIR and CF_NCURSES_CONFIG 327 from work on ncurses. 328 + build-fix for NetBSD curses (patch by Matthias Scheler). 329 3302015/05/13 331 + add configure option --with-install-prefix, like ncurses. 332 + add --with-screen and related configure options from ncurses-examples 333 to allow building with ncurses6 test-packages. 334 + update configure macros for improved coding style from lynx changes. 335 + updated ro.po from 336 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 337 + update config.guess, config.sub 338 > patches by Florent Rougon: 339 + fix two bugs in the "--file" option. 340 + When the number of arguments read from the included file is 0, the 341 code used to just skip over '--file' and its argument instead of 342 removing them from the argument list, causing "Error: Unknown 343 option --file" later on. 344 + In the alternative case (at least one argument read from the file), 345 the previous code used to do '--j;' in order to "force rescan" of 346 the inserted arguments. However, control then flowed to outer 347 blocks where a '++j;' counteracted this measure, causing "Error: 348 Unknown option --msgbox" (for instance) later on. 349 + modify escaping in argv.c to be more uniform, whether or not the 350 backslash is found within a parameter. 351 3522015/02/25 353 + modify gauge widget to keep from erasing a second gauge widget, e.g., 354 via the "--and-widget" option. This is a cosmetic change to match 355 behavior of dialog 1.0 (report by Jason Orendorf). 356 + add configure option "--with-man2html" 357 + add configure options for versioned symbols, from ongoing work on 358 ncurses. 359 + update configure macros, e.g., for shared libraries 360 3612015/01/25 362 + suppress highlighting of character which denotes an abbreviation or 363 shortcut for the OK/Cancel and other buttons for these widgets, which 364 use abbreviations for the list shown on the screen: buildlist, 365 checklist/radiobox, menubox, treeview (Debian #775295). 366 + add grid up/left and down/right bindings in editbox.c as synonyms for 367 field prev and next, respectively when handling the OK/Cancel buttons 368 (Debian #775294). 369 3702014/09/11 371 + correct malloc-size for change to prgbox. 372 3732014/09/10 374 + fixes to make "-c" option work when passing command to shell for the 375 prgbox widget, for example in samples/prgbox2 (report by Korantin 376 Auguste). 377 3782014/09/08 379 + fix an out-of-bounds array index in buildlist widget (report by 380 Cade Foster). 381 3822014/09/01 383 + add configure check for groff, needed for html/ps/pdf output. 384 + update configure-script macros: 385 + CF_ACVERSION_CHECK - work around another gratuitous incompatibility 386 introduced in 2.69 387 + CF_ADD_CFLAGS - workaround for ash-shell, e.g., with Minix 388 + CF_ADD_LIBS - filter out duplicates 389 + CF_CURSES_FUNCS - improve workaround for weak-linkage, seems to fix 390 tests with NetBSD 6.1 391 + CF_INTEL_COMPILER - clean up the -no-gcc option which was leftover 392 from testing. 393 + CF_LIB_SUFFIX - change suffix for AIX shared libraries to ".so". 394 + CF_MAKEFLAGS - workaround for GNU make 4.0 incompatibility with 395 previous releases. 396 + CF_XOPEN_SOURCE - add cases for Minix, UnixWare and improve the 397 workaround for Solaris. 398 + improve comparison in compare_cache() function, in case difference 399 between pointers does not fit in int's. 400 + updated de.po, es.po, hu.po, lv.po from 401 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 402 + update config.guess, config.sub 403 4042014/02/19 405 + cleanup of manpages prompted by Gislason's comments. 406 + several changes to manpages to improve presentation (patches by 407 Bjarni I. Gislason, Debian #739180, Debian #739181) 408 + use "\/" when transitioning from italic to normal font 409 + correct an instance of "e.g,." 410 + use "\e" rather than "\\" to present a literal "\" 411 + improve formatting of table header 412 + remove some excess space-characters 413 + change a reference 0-9 to use "through" as the connector 414 + use "\&" to separate "." from a space to make the space shorter 415 + change a list's TP macro parameters to make the hanging text align 416 better with the adjacent paragraph 417 + add comma in a few places before "and" in a list 418 + separate units from numbers with a nonfillable space 419 + replace "-" with en-dash in a few places 420 + corrected argument indices after "--args" and "--file" to rescan the 421 argument list after removing/substituting those options. 422 + fix loops for "--file" option to handle cases with zero or no tokens at 423 all substituted (Redhat #1066168). 424 + add gd.po from 425 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 426 4272014/01/12 428 + improve calculation for amount to scroll in programbox when an "Ok" 429 button might obscure part of the data (report by Florent Rougon). 430 + modify program to permit --separate-output to be used with buildlist 431 and treeview widgets (report by Florent Rougon). 432 + add list-height parameter to manpage description of --buildlist 433 (report by Florent Rougon). 434 + minor fixes to dialog.1 manpage; the reported problem was actually 435 fixed in 20120703 (Debian #726233, patch by Bjarni Ingi Gislason). 436 + add a "Hello World" example to dialog.3 manpage (prompted by 437 discussions with Dustin Oprea, Kevin Ingwersen). 438 + correct comparison in dlg_lookup_key() so that using "bindkey" with 439 a "*" wildcard parameter works as documented (report by Stewart 440 Benedict). 441 + updated configure macros, fixes for clang and mingw. 442 + update config.guess, config.sub 443 4442013/09/28 445 + fix a regression in gauge widget from 2013/09/28 changes; 446 dlg_reallocate_gauge() failed when no --title option was given 447 (report by Tritonas Insomnia). 448 4492013/09/23 450 + fix samples/inputbox6-utf8, which had depended unnecessarily on bash. 451 + improve memory caching for wide-character manipulation in gauge 452 widget (report by Devin Teske). 453 + add dlg_reallocate_gauge (discussion with Devin Teske). 454 + updated configure macros to use msys changes from ncurses. 455 + update config.guess, config.sub 456 4572013/09/02 458 + modify makefile rule to make the ".png" filenames created by groff 459 predictable. 460 + add option --help-tags to allow scripts to get the item's tag field 461 consistently from help- and help-item button results rather than 462 getting the item's text for the latter (discussion with Florent 463 Rougon). 464 + correct manpage discussion of DIALOG_ITEM_HELP versus --item-help, 465 as well as --help-button return status (report by Florent Rougon). 466 + correct limit used for --hline option (report by Devin Teske, 467 cf: 2011/06/30). 468 + do not print empty "[]" if a --hline option was given with an empty 469 value (report by Devin Teske). 470 + miscellaneous configure script fixes/updates. In particular, add 471 option --with-shared which builds shared libraries without a libtool 472 dependency. 473 + add FreeBSD port-files for test-builds. 474 + update lt.po, add fa.po from 475 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 476 + update config.guess, config.sub 477 4782013/05/23 479 + modify ifdef in arrows.c to work around packages which use the 480 wide-character ncursesw headers with the ncurses library (report 481 by Aleksey Cheusov). 482 + correct workaround for xterm alternate-screen to work with/without 483 the fix made in ncurses that makes putp() always write to the 484 standard output (Debian #708829). 485 + improve limit-checks for checklist, in case the dialog is resized 486 (report by Ilya A Arkhipov). 487 + add --last-key option (adapted from patch by Jordi Pujol, Debian 488 #697607). 489 4902013/03/15 491 + update zh_TW.po, add an.po from 492 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 493 4942012/12/30 - release 1.2 495 + improve some older changelog entries to help with HTML'izing content. 496 + various fixes/improvements for scrollbar appearance. 497 + add mappings for some equivalent options provided by whiptail; 498 add configure option --disable-whiptail to allow suppressing these. 499 + add configure option --disable-Xdialog2 to allow suppressing the 500 newer features, i.e., for cdialog 1.2 501 + add --no-items option, for consistency. 502 + add --no-tags option, like Xdialog. 503 + add buildlist, rangebox and treeview dialogs, like Xdialog. 504 + remove obsolete workaround for ncurses 4.2 scrolling in checklist 505 and menubox. 506 + improve dialog_helpfile() by preventing it from showing extra buttons 507 (suggested by xDog Walker). 508 + correct logic in formbox's scroll_next() function (report by xDog 509 Walker). 510 + fix a case with inputbox widget where preset input text is not shown 511 until moving the cursor within the text (report by xDog Walker). 512 + handle SIGCHLD in dialog_prgbox() to eliminate defunct processes 513 (report by xDog Walker). 514 + improve the way "hotkeys" are assigned to widget buttons by checking 515 if a given key has already been used in the row of buttons (Debian 516 #684933). 517 + amend fix for --trace parsing from 2012/07/03, which sometimes 518 skipped a parameter (report by xDog Walker). 519 + drop copismall and install files from samples, which were essentially 520 nonfunctional. 521 + correct secondary border colors in samples/slackware.rc and 522 samples/whiptail.rc 523 + update gl.po, add ia.po from 524 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 525 + fix various issues reported by coverity scan. 526 + miscellaneous configure script fixes/updates: 527 + require autoconf 2.52+patches 528 + support --datarootdir option 529 + check for clang compiler 530 + check for tinfo library when looking for ncurses 531 + add 3rd parameter to AC_DEFINE for autoheader 532 + remove unused macros from aclocal.m4 533 + update config.guess, config.sub 534 5352012/07/06 536 + modify samples/setup-tempfile to work with Tru64's shell. 537 + modify inputmenu sample scripts to make them more portable: 538 + use "id" rather than "$GROUPS", use sed to work with Solaris. 539 + use sed to split-up the rename results to work with HPUX. 540 + fix regression in msgbox (ArchLinux #30574) 541 5422012/07/03 543 + modify prgbox widget to work with --extra-button, etc. 544 + add case values to several widgets to allow for mouse-clicks with 545 "--extra-button" and "--help-button" additions. 546 + correct timebox widget's exit code for "--extra-button" when handing 547 the "enter" key. 548 + modify msgbox widget to honor "--extra-button". 549 + corrected processing of "--trace" option, which did not update the 550 index into command-line to point past its value. 551 + add a check in dialog program for valid characters used in option, 552 e.g., to generate an error if a script attempts to add option value 553 using "=" rather than with whitespace. 554 + add new command-line option --default-button and library function 555 dlg_default_button() to retrieve the value set by the option 556 to provide a way to set the default button directly rather than 557 by combining --nook, etc. (patch by Zoltan Kelemen). 558 + amend include of unctrl.h to apply only to the case where curses.h 559 is included, to avoid conflict of ncurses' unctrl.h with a system 560 implementation (report by Martin Roedlach) 561 + add limit-check to dlg_toupper() in non-wide curses mode to work 562 when non-character values such as arrow-key codes are passed to 563 it (patch by Zoltan Kelemen). 564 + override timeout value, e.g., as set via --timeout command-line 565 option in pause widget because that interferes with pause's behavior 566 (report by Jan Spitalnik). 567 + modify samples/inputmenu* to allow ":" in renamed text (report by 568 Andreas Stoewing). 569 + modify double-quoting to make it more consistent, i.e., checklist 570 output is quoted only when needed. This fixes the case where 571 single-quotes were used whether or not needed, but also modifies 572 older checklist behavior for double-quoting which always added those 573 (Debian #663664). 574 + correct exit-code used in inputmenu for "rename" button (Debian 575 #673041, forwarded from Ubuntu #333909, patch by Lebedev Vadim). 576 + update el.po and hr.po from 577 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 578 + use checkbashisms to clean up sample scripts. 579 5802012/02/15 581 + modify menubox.c to use the same improvement as in checklist.c 582 + improve auto width computation for checklist widget by using 583 dlg_calc_list_width as in the non-auto case (Edho Arief). 584 + eliminate some bashisms in the sample scripts (Pedro Giffuni). 585 + makefile fixes from FreeBSD ports (Li-Wen Hsu): 586 + make --with-package option of configure script work. 587 + get LIBTOOL_VERSION from configure script, needed by 588 ${LIBTOOL_VERSION} in LIBTOOL_CREATE (LIB_CREATE in configure and 589 aclocal.m4) 590 + update cs.po and sr.po from 591 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 592 + updated configure script macros, improving CF_XOPEN_SOURCE among 593 other fixes. 594 5952011/10/20 596 + fix --analyze warnings for clang versions 2.8, 2.9. 597 + add configure check for lint program. 598 + add check in dlg_getc() in case its window is freed as a side effect 599 of removing callbacks. 600 + fix logic in freeing subwindows (report by xDog Walker). 601 + fix a regression in logic distinguishing between inputmenu and menu 602 widgets (report by xDog Walker). 603 + minor fixes to library manpage. 604 6052011/10/18 606 + modify header-sh.in to work around limit on sed script length on 607 HPUX. 608 + add a special case of parameter parsing for "--trace" to the 609 initialization done before calling init_dialog(), to allow users to 610 capture the initial state of the parameter list before any options 611 are processed and removed. This is only done if "--trace" is the 612 first option, otherwise it is handled in the common options as before 613 (report by xDog Walker). 614 + modify samples/testdata-8bit, discarding $1 from the parameter list 615 if it was used, so that the source'ing scripts can consistently use 616 "$@" to insert parameters before the widget, e.g., as an alternative 617 to using $DIALOGOPTS (report by xDog Walker). 618 + modify treatment of function pointers in menubox.c, make 619 dlg_renamed_menutext() and dlg_dummy_menutext() visible to library 620 users (request by xDog Walker). 621 + add dlg_count_real_columns(), use to modify centering for "--hline" 622 text to account for "\Z"s (report by xDog Walker). 623 + improve check in dlg_draw_arrows2() for conflict between the window 624 title and up-arrow marker to take into account that the given window 625 may not be the top-level window of the widget. 626 + change width of page up/down mouse areas in fselect panes to use the 627 full width of the panes rather than only the portion from the left 628 margin to the up/down arrow. 629 + add/use dlg_draw_box2() and dlg_draw_bottom_box2() to use the 630 secondary borders. 631 + modify rc-file read/write to accept/generate color values that refer 632 to previously-processed items in the color table. This reduces the 633 number of distinct colors that must be specified to set up a color 634 scheme. 635 + add color table entries for secondary borders, i.e., the ones that 636 are normally drawn with the dialog's text-colors (Debian #641168). 637 + modify fselect.c to scan the current directory if the input field 638 happens to be empty (Debian #640905). 639 + repeated the discussion of environment variables that can override 640 the exit-status values in the manpage's return-codes section 641 (Debian #642105). 642 + add an example to the manpage showing how to override the form 643 widget's keys used for field/button traversal (Debian #642108). 644 + modify call to dlg_register_window() in formbox.c so that the editing 645 bindings are attached to the form sub-window rather than the 646 top-level dialog window. Also change the name by which the editing 647 bindings are bound for editbox.c, fselect.c and inputbox.c, so that 648 the editing and navigation bindings can be different. 649 + correct logic in dlg_lookup_key() so that it matches the widget name 650 before using a binding from .dialogrc, allowing the inner/outer 651 windows of form and other editing widgets to have different bindings. 652 + modify dlg_register_window() to call dlg_dump_window_keys() after 653 its updates, via the --trace output, to supplement the manpage 654 description of key bindings (Debian #642108). 655 + add DLGK_FORM_PREV and DLGK_FORM_NEXT key-bindings to form.c, to 656 allow binding a single key to traverse both form-fields and buttons 657 (Debian #642108). 658 + modify dlg_parse_rc() to check for error return from 659 dlg_parse_bindkey(). 660 + add function dlg_dump_window_keys(), to help with debugging widgets. 661 + add CR, LF, TAB, FF and ESC to table of curses names to help make 662 key bindings more readable. 663 + update table of dialog key-names so that helpfile and trace are 664 dumped properly. 665 + correct dlg_dump_keys(), which was showing only the first item in 666 the matched binding table. 667 + save/restore window current position in dlg_update_mixedgauge(). 668 + pass return-code from pause_for_ok() from dlg_progressbox() when 669 pauseopt is set, rather than only DLG_OK. 670 + call setlocale() in init_dialog() rather than relying on on-demand 671 use within inputstr.c, since there are paths in textbox widget which 672 do not exercise the latter (report by xDog Walker). 673 + fix some places where checks for "\Z" were done without also checking 674 dialog_vars.colors (report by Moray Henderson). 675 + correct logic for DIALOGOPTS parsing so that the parse happens only 676 once unless memory leak checking is enabled (report by xDog Walker). 677 + remove an incorrect free() call in dlg_free_gauge() (report by xDog 678 Walker). 679 + modify dlg_trace_win() to log wide-characters (report by xDog Walker). 680 + make traces shorter by skipping repeated ERR's, but showing the 681 number skipped (report by xDog Walker). 682 + improve description in manpage to distinguish program box and 683 progress box from tailboxes (adapted from email by xDog Walker). 684 + modify dlg_trace_win() so that it looks for the topmost window in a 685 dialog. Because subwindows share space with the top window, tracing 686 the latter shows the whole widget (report by xDog Walker). 687 + expand tracing so that each window is traced before soliciting input, 688 making the ^T feature to print a window on demand partly redundant 689 (suggested by xDog Walker). 690 + cosmetic change in dialog.h to avoid "*/*" strings from comments next 691 to "*" (report by xDog Walker). 692 + ensure result from dlg_align_columns() has trailing null on each 693 string. Analysis was hindered by libc6's continuance of libc5's 694 early-1990s misfeature of clearing the result from malloc, noting 695 that libc6's documentation incorrectly claims that it does not do 696 this (report by xDog Walker). 697 6982011/07/07 699 + modify util.c to work better with old versions of ncurses: 700 + suppress use of wchgat() before fix in 20060715 which is needed 701 for simple shadow manipulation used here in 2011/06/30 (report 702 by xDog Walker). 703 + add a null-pointer check in dlg_print_scrolled() 704 + fix a regression in dlg_getc() introduced by changes to intercept 705 F1 for help-popup (report by xDog Walker). 706 7072011/06/30 708 + correct license statement for prgbox.c (Debian #632198). 709 + correct layout when "--colors" is used, by discounting characters in 710 the escape sequences from the column counts (report by xDog Walker). 711 + modify dlg_checklist() so that only one item in the list can 712 initially be selected (report by xDog Walker). 713 + add/use macro dlg_enter_buttoncode() to improve implementation of 714 "--nook" option (report by xDog Walker). 715 + add option "--no-nl-expand" to suppress the conversion of "\n" 716 strings into newlines (request by xDog Walker). 717 + modify LIB_CREATE symbol in makefile.in to include the library 718 dependencies such as ncurses. This is needed when dynamically 719 loading the library (report/analysis by xDog Walker). 720 + modify dlg_exit_label() to suppress the Cancel button, for 721 consistency. 722 + modify dlg_exit_label() to honor the --nook option, except when there 723 is no other button, e.g., the help-button. 724 + modify dlg_exit_buttoncode() so that it returns the proper code for 725 help-button (report by xDog Walker). 726 + correct loop limit when processing "--column-separator" (report by 727 xDog Walker). 728 + modify handling of "--version" and "--help" to ensure that they are 729 processed, and exit before widgets. Separate "--print-version" 730 from "--version", allowing its output to be interspersed with 731 widget output (report by xDog Walker). 732 + correct a few places where "--version" or "--help" options went 733 always to stdout rather than allowing redirection with the "--stderr" 734 option (report by xDog Walker). 735 + improve repainting after erasing a widget and its shadow. 736 + add "--hline" and "--hfile" options for compatibility with FreeBSD 737 dialog (request by Devin Teske). 738 + add dialog version message when opening a trace file (request by 739 xDog Walker). 740 + show filename of rc-file in traces. 741 + add piped-in data for gauge widget to traces. 742 + add entrypoints to gauge widget, for allocating, updating and freeing 743 the widget (adapted from patch by Stephen Hurd). 744 + fix a reference to freed memory in the gauge widget. 745 + fix --no-mouse option by actually closing the mouse (report by 746 xDog Walker). 747 + add sk.po from 748 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 749 + limit Solaris xpg4 portability fix for redefinition of ERR to cover 750 the specific value found in <sys/regset.h>, in case an application 751 includes dialog.h after curses.h (FreeBSD #156601, report by Jaakko 752 Heinonen, Stephen Hurd). 753 + updated configure macros: 754 + CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, 755 + CF_CURSES_LIBS, make checks for special libraries on hpux10 and 756 sunos4 optional 757 + CF_CURSES_FUNCS, workaround for bug in gcc 4.2.1 (FreeBSD 8.1) 758 which caused part of test program to be omitted, i.e., when it saw 759 two return-statements in a row it omitted the _first_ one. Also 760 add expression to pointer check to help FreeBSD's linker decide it 761 should be validated. Just an assignment was not enough. Also, add 762 check for unctrl.h 763 + CF_CURSES_HEADER, change order for curses.h / ncurses.h pairs to 764 put ncurses.h first, which will tend to provide the same #define's 765 as in CF_NCURSES_HEADER (report by Dennis Preiser). 766 + CF_CURSES_TERM_H, modify to avoid spurious check for 767 <curses.hterm.h> if there is no ncurses version. Look for 768 ncurses's term.h anyway, to work around breakage by packagers who 769 separate ncurses' header files. 770 + CF_DISABLE_RPATH_HACK, fix garbled message 771 + CF_LD_RPATH_OPT, add mirbsd 772 + CF_MAKEFLAGS, filter out GNU make's entering/leaving messages. 773 This only appeared when using the macro in a dpkg script, though it 774 should have in other cases. 775 + CF_RPATH_HACK, add a check for libraries not found, e.g., from 776 suppressed functionality of gcc in linking from /usr/local/lib, and 777 add a -L option to help work around this. 778 + CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, workaround for cygwin to get ncurses' configure 779 script to define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED (cygwin's features.h 780 doesn't do anything, so it needs a crutch). 781 + update config.guess, config.sub 782 7832011/03/02 784 + add --prgbox and --programbox (adapted from patch by David Boyd). 785 + add sl.po from 786 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 787 + fix timeouts from 2011/01/18, which were being interpreted as 788 milliseconds rather than seconds (report by Luis Moreira). 789 7902011/01/18 791 + fix inconsistency in return-codes for textbox when help-button is 792 used by making dlg_exit_buttoncode() a wrapper for 793 dlg_ok_buttoncode(). 794 + modify pause widget to use dlg_ok_buttoncode(), so help-button works. 795 + correct two infobox sample scripts, which did not pass extra 796 command-line parameters due to quoting problems. 797 + add a limit-check to the timebox widget (patch by Garrett Cooper). 798 + modify --trace option to also trace the command-line parameters. 799 + account for combining characters when wrapping text (Debian #570634). 800 + correct handling of SIGWINCH in gauge widget (Debian #305705). 801 + add gauge_color, to make guage's progress-bar distinct from 802 title_color (request by Dominic Derdau). 803 + update fi.po from 804 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 805 as well as resync line-numbers in the other po-files. 806 + modify configure script and dialog program to build with NetBSD's 807 wide-character curses functions, including workarounds for its 808 incorrect WACS_xxx definitions. Some of the UTF-8 examples work. 809 + add back-tab for traversal of tailboxbg widgets, for symmetry with 810 tab-traversal. 811 + reduce flicker in tailboxbg by checking if the input file size has 812 changed. 813 + modify internals of callbacks to avoid blocking reads of their 814 associated files by keyboard input. 815 + add command-line option --no-mouse, to suppress use of mouse. 816 + add configure option --enable-header-subdir to allow the header files 817 to be installed into a subdirectory named for the package. 818 + modify dlg_restore_vars() to retain the updated values of 819 input_result and input_length, eliminating the need for a caller to 820 provide their own user buffer (prompted by report by Thiago Bimbatti 821 Felicio). 822 + add a null-pointer check in show_result() for 823 dialog_vars.input_result, and ensure it is set to null after freeing 824 (prompted by report by Thiago Bimbatti Felicio). 825 + change order of -I options in CPPFLAGS (report by Michel Feldheim) 826 + modify pause-widget so that it no longer exits when an unrecognized 827 key is pressed (patch by Creidieki M Crouch). 828 + add --with-package option to configure script to allow renaming 829 of the dialog program and library, to support the package scripts. 830 + add Debian and RPM package scripts for test-builds. 831 + several improvements to configure script: 832 + quote params of ifelse() 833 + change obsolete ${name-value} to standard ${name:-value} 834 + use new macros CF_ADD_LIB/CF_ADD_LIBS to enforce consistency. 835 + AM_GNU_GETTEXT, drop $MKINSTALLDIRS, use "mkdir -p" consistently. 836 + CF_ADD_SUBDIR_PATH, workaround - if $prefix was not mkdir'd yet, no 837 directories were added. 838 + CF_BUNDLED_INTL, add --with-textdomain option, to use with lynx-dev 839 package 840 + CF_FIND_LINKAGE, simplify save/restore of $LIBS 841 + CF_GCC_WARNINGS, fix for Mac OS X (compiler makes conftest.dSYM 842 directory) 843 + CF_HEADER_PATH, don't search for variations of everything in the 844 current include-path 845 + CF_WITH_CURSES_DIR, move the calls to CF_ADD_INCDIR and 846 CF_ADD_LIBDIR for the curses-directory here, from 847 CF_NCURSES_CPPFLAGS and CF_NCURSES_LDFLAGS, so it will work even 848 with the default checking, e.g., no --with-ncurses, etc. 849 + update config.guess, config.sub 850 8512010/04/28 852 + several improvements to configure script: 853 + modify CF_CURSES_TERM_H to handle cases such as cygwin where 854 packager has installed curses.h and term.h in different 855 directories, e.g., to wedge in a termcap library. 856 + modify CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, adding special case for OpenSolaris 857 + modify CF_MAKE_TAGS to add check for exctags and exetags, prefer to 858 ctags and etags to work around pkgsrc (NetBSD) renaming. 859 + correct CF_FIND_LINKAGE, setting cache variable for library_file in 860 the special case where no directory search is made. 861 + improve CF_GCC_VERSION, suppress stderr for c89 alias of gcc. 862 + improve CF_GCC_WARNINGS, moving -W and -Wall into the list to 863 check, since c89 alias for gcc complains about these options. 864 + modify CF_HEADER_PATH, to not search for variations of everything 865 in the current include-path 866 + use "mkdir -p", remove mkdirs.sh 867 + use CF_CURSES_HEADER to fill in possible subdirectory used for 868 ncurses header filename. 869 + modify CF_XOPEN_CURSES to work around current ncurse header loss of 870 predefinition of _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 871 + add "--disable-rpath-hack" option, along with scripting to add 872 rpath option to libraries found in unusual places. 873 + modify pause widget to autosize like gauge, and to omit the area for 874 buttons when none are displayed. 875 + fix an infinite loop in dlg_button_layout() if there are no buttons 876 to display (Debian #579390). 877 + add makefile rules for generating html, etc., documentation from 878 nroff. 879 > patches by Samuel Martin Moro 880 + reset errors in tailbox before reading new character. 881 + modify dlg_draw_scrollbar(), omitting hiding percentages in boxes 882 when no arrows or scrollbar are needed. 883 + correct value of row for scrollbars in formbox. 884 + update es.po from 885 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 886 8872010/01/19 888 + split up binding tables in inputbox and similar widgets to avoid 889 conflict between cursor-key use for input-string versus navigation 890 (report by slakmagik). 891 + if strftime() is available, support --time-format option for timebox 892 widget. 893 + if strftime() is available, support --date-format option for calendar 894 widget (request by Walter Harms). 895 + build-fixes for linking to intl library in /usr/local 896 + add --scrollbar option, use in most widgets to show a scrollbar on 897 the right margin of the data. That is cosmetic, does not respond to 898 the mouse. 899 + reuse functions from msgbox to allow prompt for yesno box to be 900 scrolled in a too-small window. 901 + correct mapping of button-codes with --nook option (report by Lebedev 902 Vadim). 903 + cleanup sample scripts using new utility scripts setup-* and report-*, 904 and allow command-line parameters to be added, for ad hoc testing. 905 + correct change to tailbox widget from 2009/02/22 using 906 dlg_button_layout(), which broke that widget. 907 + document some of the portability caveats. 908 + modify gauge widget to service callbacks (prompted by patch and 909 comments by Frank Sorenson). 910 + modify editbox to allow its input buffer to be larger than MAX_LEN 911 unless bounded by the --max-input option, and add limit-checks for 912 the buffer (report by slakmagik). 913 + improve manpage description of --checklist (report by Isaac Good). 914 + several improvements to configure script macros: CF_ADD_CFLAGS 915 CF_CURSES_FUNCS CF_DISABLE_ECHO CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES CF_MATH_LIB 916 CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE CF_REMOVE_DEFINE CF_WITH_LIBTOOL CF_XOPEN_SOURCE 917 + add is.po, lv.po, sw.po from 918 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 919 + update de.po, id.po, pl.po, pt_BR.po, vi.po from 920 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 921 9222009/02/22 923 + do not display top-arrows for scrolling if they would overwrite the 924 title (report by slakmagik) 925 + consistently use dlg_button_layout() when autosizing widgets (report 926 by slakmagik). 927 + add "-" and "+" bindings to timebox widget. 928 + add "-" and "+" bindings to calendar widget (OpenSolaris #6739031). 929 + review/fix other widgets to ensure that they exit on error, e.g., 930 editbox.c 931 + modify check in dlg_getc() to treat closure of either stdin or stdout 932 as an error, rather than both. This is more stringent than the check 933 added in 2007/07/04. 934 + modify dlg_result_key() to map curses ERR to dialog's error exit 935 (adapted from patch by Domagoj Pensa). 936 + updated several configure script macros: 937 + consistently append, rather then prepend, to $CFLAGS 938 + add cases for AIX 6, mint, and dragonfly to CF_XOPEN_SOURCE 939 + use $PATH_SEPARATOR rather than $PATHSEP 940 + improve CF_FIND_LINKAGE, use in checks for more libraries, e.g., 941 libutf8 and libiconv. 942 + update da.po, ru.po from 943 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 944 + update config.guess, config.sub 945 9462008/08/19 947 + amend changes to quoting; by default, the checklist widget quotes its 948 output except when --separate-output is used (Debian #495600). 949 + add eo.po from 950 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 951 9522008/07/27 953 + add pointer-check when closing piped input (cf: 2007/03/25) 954 + use here-documents rather than echo, when passing backslashes in 955 strings, to accommodate the Debian shell "dash" (Debian #489563). 956 + recode several ".po" files to UTF-8 for consistency. 957 + change --separator to be an alias for --output-separator, for 958 compatibility with Xdialog. 959 + add --output-separator option to allow scripts to change the output 960 separator from a newline (for --separate-output) or a space. This 961 applies to other widgets such as forms and editboxes which normally 962 use a newline. 963 + add --column-separator option, to tell where column-aligned data for 964 radio/checkboxes or menus should be split into columns (request by 965 Ben Dibbens). 966 + add id.po, ku.po, lt.po, nb.po and update ca.po, fr.po, gl.po, ja.po, 967 th.po from 968 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 969 + add "--quoted" option, to quote values returned by formbox, etc. 970 + change names of EX/ES macros in dialog.1 to work around name- 971 pollution caused by changes in Debian #470729. 972 9732008/03/16 974 + modify dlg_mouse_wgetch() to loop only on errors that it detects, 975 rather than on errors forwarded from dlg_getc(), in case those are 976 due to a disconnected terminal (report by Anatoli Sakhnik). 977 + allow "default" color in dialogrc file (request by Dashing). 978 + fix an indexing error in formbox (Debian #469190, report by Dmitry 979 Gomerman, patch by Vladimir Mezentsev). 980 + add bindings for CTL/N, CTL/P to checklist, fselect and menubox 981 widgets (prompted by discussion with John Gatewood Ham). 982 + add be@latin.po, th.po and update zh_TW.po from 983 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 984 > patches by Peter Astrand: 985 + modify dlg_auto_sizefile() to ensure the computed height and width 986 do not extend beyond the screen size. 987 + use unctrl() to make inputstr.c work with Solaris curses. 988 > patches by Yura Kalinichenko: 989 + extend pause widget to use ok/cancel buttons (the former giving the 990 same result as a timeout), rather than an exit-button. 991 + fix initialization parameter of inputbox for multibyte characters. 992 9932007/10/28 994 + improve layout of checklist.c, menubox.c, ensuring that the list fits 995 within the available space (report by Gordon Schumacher). 996 + undo removal of redundant chunk from checklist.c in 2007/02/27, 997 since some scripts depend on this (Debian #443077). 998 + update nl.po from 999 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 1000 10012007/09/30 1002 + correct cursor position in editbox after deleting past left margin 1003 (report by Joe McDonagh). 1004 + add "--no-ok" option (patch by Klaus Knopper). 1005 + modify "--file" option to allow it to read from sources other than 1006 a regular file (patch by Pieter van Beek). 1007 + improved hi.po (Hindi) (from Klaus Knopper). 1008 + fix masking of attributes in dlg_draw_shadow() which lost 1009 line-drawing bit (report by David Everly). 1010 + fix editbox widget to handle zero-length files (report by Joe 1011 McDonagh). 1012 + update "po" files eu.po ga.po it.po ms.po sv.po vi.po wa.po zh_CN.po 1013 from 1014 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 1015 10162007/07/04 1017 + revise the resizable shadows so textbox's search dialog has text 1018 visible in the shadow again. 1019 + improve the prefixing of autoconf-related symbols in the installed 1020 header files, taking into account symbols which are not mentioned in 1021 dlg_config.h 1022 + add a check when ERR returned from wgetch() to ensure that the 1023 input/output streams are still valid. If that happens, force 1024 ESC to be returned, quitting dialog (report by Reiner Huober). 1025 + add extern "C" declarations to dlg_keys.h so the corresponding 1026 function declarations are exported to C++ as C symbols. 1027 + update config.guess, config.sub 1028 10292007/06/04 1030 + fix a memory leak in editbox.c 1031 + revise change from 2007/02/27 which moved the logic for trimming 1032 option text out of the loop because that moved it before 1033 initialization of the "--trim" option. Put it back in the loop, but 1034 limit the tokens which are trimmed to cover only those for the 1035 current widget. Also ensure that all tokens for a widget are 1036 trimmed, rather than only the first, which is usually text (report by 1037 Lai Zit Seng). 1038 + add _FILE_OFFSET_BITS definition in CF_LARGEFILE configure macro. 1039 10402007/05/28 1041 + revise changes needed to make textbox's searchbox handle ncurses 1042 resizing events, e.g., by handling the ERR in that code rather than 1043 in dlg_getc() (Debian #423732). 1044 10452007/05/14 1046 + supply a repaint_text() call in tailbox.c which was bypassed because 1047 dlg_getc() now retries on ERR (Debian #423732, cf: 2007/02/27). 1048 + modify dlg_getc() to fix regression in 2007/02/27 for use of 1049 timeouts, broken by fixes to allow resizing of textbox (patch by 1050 Arnaud Fontaine, Debian #418905). 1051 + modify dlg_getc() to fix regression in use of TAB for traversal of 1052 tailboxbg widgets due to changes for user-definable key bindings 1053 (Debian #418917, cf: 2005/12/07). 1054 10552007/04/09 1056 + add case in dlg_getc() to handle tab for traversing between widgets 1057 as in the samples/tailboxbg1 script. Normally the key binding 1058 overrides, except for the special case where multiple widgets are 1059 available. 1060 + add configure --with-libtool-opts, which passes its value to the 1061 library creation and linkage passes, e.g., 1062 --with-libtool-opts=-static 1063 to force the result to be static libraries (prompted by a related 1064 request by Santiago Vila). 1065 > several fixes based on Coverity scan: 1066 + fix memory leak in timebox, calendar widgets if the widget cannot 1067 be created. 1068 + fix memory leak in dlg_key.c if a user binding's storage cannot 1069 be allocated. 1070 + fix improperly delinked entry in dlg_del_window(). 1071 10722007/03/25 1073 + improve mkdirs.sh to ignore error from mkdir if the target directory 1074 happens to already exist (suggested by Harald van Dijk). 1075 + amend documentation for --gauge to reflect longstanding quirk which 1076 allows it to read percentage from the first line after an "XXX" 1077 (Debian #415596). 1078 + fix makefile dependency so "configure && make install-lib" works. 1079 + fix resizing of msgbox; the message was not repainted (Debian 1080 #415022, patch by Brian Rolfe). 1081 + fix typo in makefile LIB_OBJECT symbol from 2007/02/27 changes. 1082 + improve CF_MBSTATE_T by including stdio.h, needed on Tru64 to make 1083 the test-compile work. 1084 + change makefile to install dialog.3 as part of install-lib rather 1085 than install-man (report by Thomas Klausner). 1086 + use $(INSTALL_SCRIPT) for installing dialog-config (report by 1087 Santiago Vila). 1088 10892007/02/27 - release 1.1 1090 + mark as "dialog 1.1" 1091 + add dialog-config script, which provides applications with compile- 1092 and link-information for using the dialog library. 1093 + move calls to dlg_trim_string() out of loop in dialog.c, so each 1094 string is trimmed once (report by Ivanov Makcim). 1095 + modify textbox.c to allow resizing while the search box is presented. 1096 This relies on bug-fix in ncurses 5.6 20070224. 1097 + use dgettext() rather than gettext() to allow libdialog to use the 1098 messages installed for dialog (patch by Vajna Miklos). 1099 + modify inputbox to position the cursor initially at the end of any 1100 initial-text (request by Klaus Knopper). 1101 + add configure --with-valgrind for testing. 1102 + add --trace option, for debugging. 1103 + add --ascii-lines and --no-lines options to control the way the 1104 line-drawing characters are rendered (request by Klaus Knopper). 1105 + add --keep-tite option, to override suppression of smcup/rmcup 1106 (termcap ti/te) strings which would switch to xterm's alternate 1107 screen (Debian #380665). 1108 + modify fselect/dselect to use space-character as a completion 1109 operator like tab in shells (patch by Yoram Bar Haim). 1110 + remove a redundant chunk from checklist.c which reported status a 1111 second time if the help-button was pressed but no item-help option 1112 was in effect (Andre C Barros). 1113 + fix return-status from "dialog --pause" (Debian #409254). 1114 + add --mixedform and --mixedgauge dialogs based on patch from 1115 Kiran Cherupally. 1116 + add some notes on compatibility to the manpage. 1117 + add editbox dialog (compatible with Xdialog, Debian #368478). 1118 + add dselect dialog (compatible with Xdialog). 1119 + remove an incorrect initialization of .text_flen from 2005/12/07 1120 changes, which made all fields in a form editable (Debian #404045). 1121 + report error and exit if a filename given for the --file option 1122 cannot be opened (report by "Dog Walker"). 1123 + make --program-prefix, etc., work in configure script, e.g., to make 1124 program install as "cdialog". This does not alter the library name. 1125 + add install-bin, install-man (and uninstall) rules to makefile. 1126 + updates for configure script macros (originally vile, lynx, xterm): 1127 AM_PATH_PROG_WITH_TEST, AM_WITH_NLS, CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, 1128 CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_INCLUDE_DIRS, CF_LARGEFILE, CF_MAKEFLAGS, 1129 CF_PATH_SYNTAX, CF_SUBDIR_PATH, CF_SUBST, CF_WITH_DBMALLOC, 1130 CF_WITH_DMALLOC, CF_WITH_LIBTOOL and CF_XOPEN_SOURCE. 1131 + update config.guess, config.sub 1132 > adapted fixes from SuSE package (Werner Fink): 1133 + add some limit-checks in dlg_draw_shadow(). 1134 + make shadows resizable, using new dlg_move_window() in msgbox.c 1135 and yesno.c 1136 + add dialog_state.input, use this in end_dialog() to decide whether 1137 to close pipe inputs and call _exit(), or simply call exit(). 1138 + modify dlg_ctl_size() to check if the reason for failure is because 1139 shadows were used; retry in that case without shadows. 1140 + add signal catcher for SIGSEGV. 1141 11422006/02/21 1143 + fix logic in split-out dlg_menu() to separate inputmenu and menu 1144 handling (report by Auke Kok). 1145 11462006/01/26 1147 + fix fselect.c to compile properly with Intel compiler and largefile 1148 option. 1149 + improve configure script checks for curses headers to work around 1150 breakage in some packages, e.g., cygwin. 1151 + amend correction to menubox, fixes normal menus (Debian #349969). 1152 11532006/01/19 1154 + completed dialog.3 manpage 1155 + modify configure script option --with-gauge to cover all flavors of 1156 the gauge (gauge, pause, progressbox). 1157 + add progressbox widget, a hybrid of gauge and tailbox (Reznic Valery). 1158 + fix a comparison in checklist.c to avoid unneeded arrows when the 1159 list happens to fit in the window (patch by Peter Postma). 1160 + correct wrapping computation in print_line() from 2005/11/07 changes 1161 (report by Barry Kauler). 1162 + update sv.po (comments only). 1163 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 1164 + correct logic that passes the callback for menubox to do inputmenu 1165 operations from 2005/12/7 changes (report by Reznic Valery). 1166 11672006/01/01 1168 + add a null-pointer check in dlg_register_buttons(), needed for the 1169 tailboxbg (Debian #345524). 1170 + fix a few memory leaks reported by valgrind. 1171 11722005/12/19 1173 + correct return-values of new functions dlg_default_listitem() and 1174 dlg_default_formitem() (Debian #344002). 1175 + add Swedish translation (Debian #343303, by Daniel Nylander) 1176 + begin function-summaries in dialog.3 1177 + update config.guess, config.sub 1178 11792005/12/07 1180 + change license to LGPL. 1181 + change naming convention in dlg_colors.h to make it easier to read, 1182 and incidentally remove the last chunk of code preventing relicense. 1183 + add --passwordform (request by Reznic Valery). 1184 + modify pause.c, msgbox.c to work with --help-button. 1185 + modify formbox.c, inputbox.c, textbox.c, yesno.c to work with extra 1186 button (adapted from Reznic Valery patch). 1187 + modify dlg_exit_label(), dlg_yes_labels() and dlg_ok_label() to allow 1188 help-button (prompted by Reznic Valery patch). 1189 + add zh_CN.po file from 1190 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 1191 + provide alternate interfaces for dialog_checklist(), dialog_menu() 1192 and dialog_form(): dlg_checklist(), dlg_menu() and dlg_form() 1193 (discussion with Michael Gebetsroither). 1194 + add/use dlg_result_key() to allow binding function keys to the 1195 buttons. 1196 + implement user-definable key bindings in the rc-file. 1197 + modify inline cases for KEY_xxx values to use binding tables in new 1198 module dlg_keys.c 1199 + add several DIALOG_STATE items to the rc file: aspect, 1200 separate_widget, tab_len and visit_links 1201 + add a tab-adjustment to dlg_print_text() to improve solution from 1202 2005/10/30, e.g., in the samples/form* scripts. 1203 + fix an off-by-one which made mouse-selection not work for menu items 1204 past the first page (GenToo #112024, patch by Harald van Dijk). 1205 12062005/11/07 1207 + extend dlg_add_result() to allow caller to pass a null pointer 1208 for dialog_vars.input_result (Debian #336986). 1209 + correct length used for text portion of radio/checkboxes (report by 1210 Valentin Stoykov). 1211 + modify msgbox, textbox and center_label() to work properly for 1212 LANG=bg_BG.utf8 examples by Valentin Stoykov. 1213 + modify use of freopen() to work with opaque FILE type on DragonFly 1214 (report by Jeremy C Reed). 1215 + modify print_line() to compute columns, use that for the call to 1216 dlg_print_line(). Fix a few places where strlen() was used instead 1217 of dlg_count_columns() (reports by Valentin Stoykov). 1218 12192005/10/30 1220 + reviewed changes since beginning development in 1999, decided that 1221 there are no appreciable portions of original code remaining. 1222 Marked sources to correspond. 1223 + improve cache performance for inputstr.c using tsearch() rather than 1224 a linked-list search (Debian #294853). 1225 + remove a special case for darwin in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE configure macro. 1226 + add ms.po file from 1227 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 1228 + remove an assignment that caused the cursor to appear initially on a 1229 form field rather than button (Debian #333506). 1230 + modify buttons.c to count columns rather than bytes, fixing case 1231 where buttons were laid out incorrectly (report by Valentin Stoykov). 1232 + change dlg_print_text() to count columns rather than bytes, fixing 1233 case where fewer columns were displayed in menu than expected 1234 (report by Valentin Stoykov). 1235 12362005/10/05 1237 + improve fix for dlg_does_output(), eliminating redundant leading 1238 separator. 1239 + fill background color for item-help text (report by Peter Postma). 1240 + correct interaction between --separate-output and --output-separator 1241 broken in 2005/09/11 fix for Debian #326918 (Debian #331440). 1242 + update config.guess, config.sub 1243 12442005/09/11 1245 + undo doubled adjustment for left/right margins when wrapping text 1246 for msgbox, gauge and pause (report by Xyba). 1247 + correct position of scrolled text in formbox broken by 2004/12/19 1248 changes (report by Konrad Jelen). 1249 + call dlg_does_output() from dlg_add_result(), ensuring that 1250 separators are used when combining widgets such as formbox (report by 1251 John Suykerbuyk). 1252 + fix marker in textbox.c to make it disappear at the top of the file 1253 (report by Patrick J. Volkerding). 1254 + fix marker shown in arrows.c for checklists, etc., which was "(+)" 1255 where it should have been "(-)" (report/patch by Patrick J. 1256 Volkerding). 1257 + fix --input-fd (changes in glibc since 2003 made dialog hang on exit 1258 due to the way dialog updated stdin). 1259 + restore default value (a tab) for --separator or --separate-widget 1260 lost in 2003/11/26 changes (Debian #326918). 1261 + make several widgets handle SIGWINCH (calendar, checklist, formbox, 1262 fselect, inputbox, menubox, pause, tailbox, textbox, timebox). Only 1263 msgbox and yesno had been done before. Note that some still have 1264 fixed geometry requirements, so they cannot be shrunk below a given 1265 threshold. Also, these changes do not address traversal, e.g., for 1266 tailboxbg. 1267 + make gauge widget handle SIGWINCH with ncurses (Debian #305705). 1268 + add configure option to control whether largefile support is 1269 compiled-in (Debian #298882). 1270 + update eu.po (Debian #312622, patch by Piarres Egana). 1271 + add/update po files from 1272 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 1273 fi.po, rw.po, sr.po, tr.po, zh_TW.po 1274 + fixes for configure script: 1275 + improve script for determining gcc version 1276 + improve checks for Intel compiler and related warning options 1277 + improve checks for defining _XOPEN_SOURCE (or alternatives) and 1278 _POSIX_C_SOURCE 1279 + update config.guess, config.sub 1280 12812005/03/06 1282 + add/update po files from 1283 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 1284 ga.po, it.po 1285 + revert last change for da.po; it was from an older version (report by 1286 Morten Brix Pedersen). 1287 12882005/02/06 1289 + modify makefile.in so --disable-echo applies to libtool builds. 1290 + corrected malloc size used for editable fields in formbox widget to 1291 match the function which updates the corresponding buffer. 1292 + modify formbox widget's use of flen to allow negative values to be 1293 used to limit the length of the displayed field. 1294 + improve description in manpage of output from formbox widget 1295 (Debian #292418). 1296 + modify formbox widget to allow fields with flen==0 to display 1297 (Debian #292417). 1298 + improved configure macros CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE and CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, to 1299 avoid redefinition warnings on cygwin. 1300 + fix a typo in inputmenu-stdout found via "sh -n" (report by Steve 1301 Grubb). 1302 + add/update po files from 1303 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 1304 ca.po, da.po, hu.po, nl.po, rm.po, ro.po, vi.po 1305 13062005/01/16 1307 + add --args option to help with debugging scripts. 1308 + adapted some new po files from Debian package for whiptail: ar.po, 1309 bg.po, gl.po, hi.po, hr.po, mg.po, mk.po, ro.po, sq.po and zh_TW.po 1310 + update da.po (Morten Brix Pedersen). 1311 + add configure check for Intel 8.0 compiler, to set appropriate 1312 warning options. 1313 + update config.guess, config.sub 1314 13152004/12/22 1316 + correct a typo in 2004/12/19 changes which caused width of multibyte 1317 characters to be incorrectly computed in some locales. 1318 + modify --version and --help options to write consistently to the 1319 standard output (report by Santiago Vila). 1320 + modify tailboxbg by resetting tty modes at the point where it forks a 1321 process to update the screen, rather than waiting until that process 1322 exits. This improves user feedback by making it apparent that dialog 1323 is no longer processing input after that point (Redhat #142538). 1324 + minor updates to some .po files using Babel Fish, comparing with lynx. 1325 + update es.po (Santiago Vila). 1326 + work around bug in NetBSD 1.6 curses which seems to be confused by 1327 reusing color pairs with different video attributes. The problem 1328 does not appear in NetBSD 2.0 curses (but its headers do not provide 1329 version info, so color-caching is not available for that 1330 configuration). 1331 + modify pause and gauge widgets to ensure that reverse-video progress 1332 bar is visible when the background is reversed, e.g., using the 1333 default non-color attributes. 1334 + use chtype rather than attr_t, to build with old Solaris curses, 1335 used in save/restore operation from 2004/09/20. 1336 13372004/12/19 1338 + add pause-widget (patch by Yura Kalinichenko). 1339 + modify exit-code returned on selecting the "Help"-button when the 1340 --item-help option is given. Previously this returned the same code 1341 as "OK", since it combines output for "OK" with the help status. It 1342 now returns the help-code, but this can be overridden by setting the 1343 environment variable $DIALOG_ITEM_HELP (reports by Erika Pacholleck 1344 and Sebastian Muesch). 1345 + modify formbox widget so input-length is not limited to field-length 1346 (report by David Liebermann). 1347 + localize the label on the search box for textbox widget (report by 1348 Erika Pacholleck). 1349 + correct usage message detail for fselect, which listed an extra 1350 parameter (Debian #284008). 1351 + add include for <sys/select.h> in ui_getc.c to build with QNX 4.25 1352 using Watcom 10.6 (patch by Len Meakin). 1353 + modify behavior when no locale (or POSIX locale) is set to allow 1354 legacy interpretation of Latin-1 character set (Debian #284795). 1355 13562004/11/18 1357 + correct computation of column width for menubox/checkbox tags, for 1358 multicolumn characters, e.g., the menubox-utf8 example. 1359 + correct calls to wbkgdset(), which set the background attribute but 1360 not the corresponding character (ncurses uses blank if none is given). 1361 + improve configure script check for _XOPEN_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE. 1362 + improved limit-computation in show_message() to allow for scrolling 1363 very long messages. 1364 + adjust scrolling logic in msgbox to account for the one-line offset 1365 used by the logic which wraps text in a box, thus avoiding leaving 1366 an extra blank line (report by Maxim Sobolev). 1367 13682004/09/20 1369 + add samples/whiptail.rc 1370 + add samples/dialog.py (noting that a later version of this exists 1371 as pythondialog, but this is relatively self-contained). Modified 1372 the script to accept the $DIALOG environment variable like the other 1373 sample scripts, to specify the path of the program to use. 1374 + modify the install rule for header-files so the autoconf names in 1375 dlg_config.h (and corresponding usage in dialog.h, etc), are altered 1376 from "HAVE_xxx" to "DLG_HAVE_xxx", etc. 1377 + add a check for getenv("HOME") in rc.c 1378 + add a call to end_dialog() in signal_handler for tailboxbg (from 1379 patch by Werner Fink). 1380 + correct initialization in checklist and radiobox for --default-item, 1381 scrolling as needed. 1382 + modify --visit-items option so that it puts the cursor initially on 1383 the list (in menubox, checklist and radiobox), accepts abbreviations 1384 for the buttons when the cursor is on the button-row, and otherwise 1385 (when --visit-items is given) abbreviations apply only to the list 1386 (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1387 + modify a few widgets (inputbox, textbox, yesno) to beep on unexpected 1388 input. 1389 + modify some msgbox widget to accept abbreviations of its button 1390 label, for consistency with other widgets (request by Erika 1391 Pacholleck). 1392 + corrected logic of dlg_char_to_button(), making it check only the 1393 first uppercase letter in each button label rather than all uppercase 1394 letters (report by Erika Pacholleck, cf: 2003/09/10). 1395 + improved description of --clear and --keep-window options (adapted 1396 from Erika Pacholleck). 1397 + move discussion of --beep and --beep-signal options to Obsolete 1398 Options section of manpage, remove these from the help-message 1399 (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1400 + bracket extern's in dialog.h with C++ extern "C" declaration, in case 1401 the library is used from a C++ application. 1402 + modify inputmenu examples to allow ESC to cancel the script. 1403 + modify inputmenu widget to cancel edit on a TAB or ESC. 1404 + modify inputmenu widget to use the same color scheme for the editable 1405 text as the inputbox widget. 1406 + modify samples/killall to work around differences in "cut" versions. 1407 + use the color-caching from the \Z logic when loading the ".rc" file, 1408 thereby reducing the number of color pairs required, and making it 1409 less likely that deriving color pairs for drawing arrows on a given 1410 background will run out of colors. 1411 + save/restore window attributes in dlg_draw_arrows() and similar 1412 functions, to allow widgets to draw arrows using the widget's 1413 background rather than a common/fixed value (request by Erika 1414 Pacholleck). 1415 + modify textbox widget so the down-arrow will be hidden when at the 1416 end of the file. (Modifying the up-arrow to be hidden is harder - 1417 will do this when implementing scrollbars). 1418 + correct off-by-one in fselect.c which left down-arrows showing at 1419 the bottom of directory- and file-lists (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1420 + improve display of percentages by omitting blanks where lines should 1421 be shown. 1422 + modify logic for \Z escapes to make those that set video attributes 1423 not clear the colors (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1424 + modify logic for \Z escapes to allow foreground and background 1425 colors to be the same, provided that bold attribute is set. 1426 Also improved the logic for choosing a background color when the 1427 foreground and background are the same (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1428 + updated configure script macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, ensuring that the 1429 _POSIX_C_SOURCE value is defined with a specific value (bug report 1430 originally for lynx). 1431 + fix configure script so that po/makefile is generated properly when 1432 the configure --srcdir --enable-nls options are used. 1433 + modify makefile.in to allow build/install from another directory, 1434 i.e., using configure --srcdir (patch by Mike Castle). 1435 + updated da.po (Debian #262587, Morten Brix Pedersen). 1436 + modify some sample scripts to avoid using grave quotes nested within 1437 double quotes with multiple file redirection, which does not work 1438 with Solaris /bin/sh (report/analysis by Eric Haller). 1439 + check for end of string immediately after a \Z escape to avoid 1440 displaying the null terminator as a ^@ (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1441 > patches by Erika Pacholleck: 1442 + modify calendar.c, fselect.c and timebox.c to use color scheme like 1443 other lists, using menubox colors rather than dialog colors. 1444 + correct charset for po/de.po, translate messages for "Help" and 1445 "Rename". 1446 + omit parentheses around percentage in textbox.c 1447 + correct a few mismatched attributes, e.g., searchbox_attr in textbox.c, 1448 percentage in msgbox.c, 1449 1450 14512004/07/31 1452 + add test scripts to cover zero-width column case. 1453 + remove limit checks from checklist.c and menubox.c (cf: 2004/07/28), 1454 since some scripts use zero-width columns (Debian #262411 and report 1455 by Kyle Sallee). 1456 14572004/07/29 1458 + modify msgbox.c to only reserve space for percentage shown as part 1459 of scrollable text for the msgbox widget. This makes infobox look 1460 as it did before 2004/06/06 changes (report by Vinesh Christopher) 1461 14622004/07/28 1463 + remove redundant calls to wtimeout() from widgets since wtimeout() 1464 is properly called from ui_getc() where it is controlled by the 1465 --timeout option (bug report by juanjo). 1466 + add limit checks in checklist.c and menubox.c for very narrow screens 1467 (prompted by Steve Grubb patch). 1468 + initialize step in dlg_draw_buttons() in case it is used to draw 1469 a vertical list of buttons (prompted by Steve Grubb patch). 1470 > fixes by Steve Grubb: 1471 + correct logic in checklist.c (cf: 2003/11/26 changes) which turned 1472 quoting on unnecessarily for radiobox, breaking some old scripts. 1473 + increase size of array in dlg_ok_labels() to avoid overrun if extra 1474 and help buttons are used (cf: 2002/06/12 changes). 1475 + initialize fkey variable in menubox.c and textbox.c (cf: 2003/07/12). 1476 14772004/07/21 - release 1.0 1478 + minor updates for configure script, i.e., CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, 1479 CF_NCURSES_LIBS macros. 1480 + update config.guess, config.sub 1481 + add nl.po (Jacques Weewer). 1482 14832004/06/06 1484 + add --visit-items option, which allows the user to tab to the item 1485 list in the checklist/radiobox and menubox widgets (request by 1486 Ari Moisio). 1487 + use wide-character line-drawing for up/down arrows when configured 1488 for wide-characters, gives better results with uxterm. 1489 + limit the number of times a --file option can be used, to prevent 1490 runaway recursion if a --file option is embedded within a file which 1491 is included. 1492 + improve discussion of wrapping in the manpage (Debian #251937). 1493 + modify msgbox to allow it to scroll vertically like textbox (Debian 1494 #233276). This only works with ncurses. 1495 + implement $DIALOGVARS environment variable to apply common options to 1496 dialog_vars when it is reset before processing other common options. 1497 + add --single-quoted option to control whether output is double-quoted 1498 with '"' or single-quoted with single-quotes. 1499 + revert the default quoting behavior of checklists to use 1500 double-quotes (report by Mark K Post regarding Slackware scripts). 1501 + add eu.po (Basque) (Piarres Beobide Egaa). 1502 + add ca.po (Catalan) (Jordi Mallach). 1503 15042004/04/21 1505 + add a call to flushinp() to init_dialog(), to discard any typeahead 1506 before dialog is invoked (Debian #244746). 1507 + correct dlg_match_char() function, which was broken during rewrite 1508 to support wide-characters (Debian #244777). 1509 + improved ru.po, uses UTF-8 charset (Leonid Kanter, Redhat #119200). 1510 + correct position of shadow drawn for dialogs, which appeared to work 1511 for most versions of curses (other than NetBSD) but would have been 1512 visible for certain color schemes (discussion with Julian Coleman). 1513 + correct loop-exit in longest_word() (Tomas Heredia, forwarded by 1514 Santiago Vila). 1515 + add cy.po (Welsh) (Dafydd Harries). 1516 15172004/03/16 1518 + modify quoting of results to use single-quote rather than double 1519 quote, and ensure that results containing a quote or backslash 1520 character are escaped (report by Florent Rougon) 1521 + remove an incorrect comparison from checklist which made cursor 1522 stick on the last line, from 2004/03/01 changes. 1523 15242004/03/14 1525 + add a dependency to install library if "--with-libtool" is used. 1526 + add manpage for the library. 1527 + add "--file" 1528 + modify formbox.c to support "--help-status" like menubox. 1529 + modify checklist.c to add item name to the "HELP" string when 1530 "--help-button" is used and no --item-help option is given (Debian 1531 #236841, report/patch by Jorg Sommer). 1532 + rename colors.h to dlg_colors.h, install that when the library is 1533 installed. 1534 + add copyright notice to usage ("--help") message. 1535 + correct a missing bounds check for mouse-clicks in menubox (prompted 1536 by Debian #233044). 1537 + updated several configure-script macros: AM_GNU_GETTEXT, 1538 AM_WITH_NLS, CF_OUR_MESSAGES, CF_PROG_EXT, CF_WITH_DBMALLOC, 1539 CF_WITH_DMALLOC, CF_WITH_LIBTOOL, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE. 1540 15412004/03/01 1542 + improve layout of calendar widget to allow for very long button 1543 labels (report by Santiago Vila). 1544 + correct logic for $DIALOG_TTY, broken in 2003/11/30. The environment 1545 variable must evaluate to a nonzero integer (report by Florent 1546 Rougon). 1547 + document interaction between "--default-no" and "--no-cancel" options 1548 in manpage (Debian #223488). 1549 + change configure script to use autoconf 2.52+patch, to work around 1550 issues with Estonian locale (report by Seemant Kulleen). 1551 + add uk.po (Ukrainian) (Debian #232441). 1552 + make --default-item apply to checklist widget (Debian #225255). 1553 + correct a missing check for --item-help when --help-status was given 1554 for checklist (Debian #232921). 1555 + correct a missing bounds check for mouse-clicks in checklist (Debian 1556 #233044). 1557 + update config.guess, config.sub 1558 15592003/12/07 1560 + correct infinite loop in yesno widget when "--defaultno" option is 1561 combined with "--no-cancel" (Debian #223077). 1562 15632003/11/30 1564 + suppress double-quotes added for "--help-status" option if the 1565 string does not contain any special characters. 1566 15672003/11/26 1568 + add samples/sourcemage.rc, for comparison with slackware.rc 1569 + add "--insecure" option (request by Sean Mathews (DrWho@f34r.com)). 1570 + make "--defaultno" option apply to widgets which use OK/Cancel 1571 buttons as well (Debian #209030). 1572 + improve documentation of exit-codes for each widget in the manpage 1573 (Debian #217926). 1574 + add option "--keep-window" to suppress repainting after completing 1575 each widget (request by Ingo van Lil). 1576 + add options "--yes-label" and "--no-label" to allow override of the 1577 "Yes" and "No" strings (request by Christoph Zwerschke). 1578 + add option "--help-status" to allow script to restore a checklist 1579 or radiolist after processing an item-help string (Debian #209031). 1580 + modify width-calculation for non-formatted text to ensure it is 1581 wide enough for the longest word in the text (patch by Andrew Gaul). 1582 + modify dlg_index_columns() to count a newline as a single cell rather 1583 than 2 for the normal curses case. This fixes an off-by-one for 1584 the text-justification, shown in screen 2 of msgbox1 sample script. 1585 + fix dlg_char_to_button(); 2003/09/10 changes made it incorrectly 1586 ignore case of the labels. 1587 + change calendar's use of arrow keys so they are (as before 2002/06/22) 1588 interpreted within the day-grid as movement within that grid (request 1589 by David Anders). 1590 + correct missing initialization of last_getc variable in dlg_getc() 1591 (report/analysis by Victor Wodecki). 1592 + modify main program to make 1593 dialog --no-shadow --print-maxsize 1594 work. Normally dialog prints the screen size after subtracting the 1595 area reserved for shadows, but some applications may need the actual 1596 screen size (Debian #213424). 1597 + several related changes (Debian #213425): 1598 + separate the examples using "--stdout" and "--output-fd" from the 1599 normal usage examples. 1600 + add "--input-fd" option, provide a sample of its use. 1601 + modify init_dialog() to use initscr() unless a "--stdout" option 1602 was used. Some scripts relied on the coincidence that redirecting 1603 standard output from dialog would "work". Before this change 1604 init_dialog() assumed that redirected standard output was 1605 synonymous with "--stdout" option (not the intended behavior). 1606 + modify command-line parsing to look for "--stdout" and "--stderr" 1607 options first, allowing only one. 1608 + add a check for an environment variable $DIALOG_TTY which provides 1609 the older behavior, i.e., try to open the terminal directly if 1610 stdout is redirected. 1611 + interface changes, to make libdialog simpler to use: 1612 + rename all of the internal functions to begin with "dlg_", but 1613 provide compatibility with older names if the application defines 1614 __DIALOG_OLD_NAMES__. 1615 + add dialog_version() function, and corresponding DIALOG_VERSION and 1616 DIALOG_PATCHDATE definitions to dlg_config.h 1617 + eliminate remaining global variables such as screen_initialized in 1618 favor of dialog_state and dialog_vars. 1619 + move some data such as dialog_vars.output to dialog_state, since 1620 they are normally not reset between widgets. 1621 + change interfaces of dialog_yesno() and dialog_checklist() to use 1622 dialog_state.defaultno and dialog_vars.separate_output, making it 1623 simpler and more consistent. 1624 + improve configure script and related definitions: 1625 + add "--with-libtool" option to provide shared library support by 1626 libtool. 1627 + rename generated "config.h" to "dlg_config.h", so it can be 1628 installed without naming conflict. Added "dlg_config.h" to 1629 install-lib rule. 1630 + modify configure script and makefile to use EXEEXT and OBJEXT. 1631 + add "--enable-widec" option to control whether wide-curses features 1632 are compiled-in, rather than check for the existence of those in 1633 the curses library. This allows building with HPUX curses, which 1634 has abandoned legacy features while not quite supporting X/Open 1635 curses. 1636 + add configure check for getbegx(), etc., which are not provided on 1637 all platforms. 1638 + update config.guess, config.sub 1639 16402003/10/02 1641 + update hu.po (Arpad Biro). 1642 + revert part of the 2003/08/18 change to "--stdout" option. Using 1643 stderr for screen output does not work well on several platforms 1644 since stdout's settings are affected (report by Kent Robotti). 1645 16462003/09/24 1647 + modify tailbox to allow it to display files with arbitrarily long 1648 lines. 1649 + fix an infinite loop in tailbox, broken when making interface changes 1650 to dlg_getc() (report by Ingo van Lil). 1651 + amend fix for "--and-widget" to not treat "---" as an option (report 1652 by Kent Robotti). 1653 + updated es.po (Santiago Vila). 1654 16552003/09/10 1656 + correct "RENAMED" result from inputmenu widget, which did not reset 1657 the result buffer, and did not account for scroll-offset (Debian 1658 #209336). 1659 + modify button, menu and checklist logic that matches a character to 1660 the beginning of a text field to support wide-characters (completes 1661 Debian #195674). 1662 + modify configure script to not use "head -1". 1663 16642003/08/30 1665 + modify searchbox popup in textbox widget so one can simply press 1666 return on an empty input to cancel the popup. 1667 + modify error reporting to avoid clearing screen if a problem is 1668 found in the ".rc" file. 1669 + add color/attribute combinations for form widget (based on patch by 1670 Reznic Valery). 1671 + combine rc-file colors, attribute- and color-tables to obtain a 1672 single table for color values, which requires less work to add new 1673 entries. 1674 + modify fselect widget to make back-tab work again, since it was 1675 broken by the rewrite of dlg_edit_string(). 1676 + modify howmany_tags() so it will quit searching when it finds any 1677 option, not only "--and-widget" (Debian #206636). 1678 + correct call to dlg_print_text() in print_line(), which did not 1679 account for hidden characters (report/patch by David Poole). 1680 + modify print_button() to display properly if locale defines ok/cancel 1681 or yes/no buttons that contain multibyte characters. 1682 16832003/08/20 1684 + correct an indexing error when deleting from the end of a line using 1685 KEY_DC; it happened to work on Linux because malloc() clears memory 1686 like calloc(). 1687 + add '\r' to case statement where '\n' is translated to KEY_ENTER to 1688 work around defect in NetBSD curses. 1689 + modify configure check for getparyx(), etc., which are implemented 1690 by NetBSD curses as functions rather than macros. 1691 + correct configure check for term.h, which may be <ncursesw/term.h> 1692 if ncursesw development headers are installed, but not ncurses 1693 development headers. Or they may not coincide (Debian #206287). 1694 16952003/08/18 1696 + modify checklist.c and menubox.c to display tags properly if they 1697 contain wide-characters. 1698 + better solution for initializing curses when "--stdout" option is 1699 used, e.g., use stderr for the output if it is a tty. Also correct 1700 the error handling, so dialog exits with an error if it cannot 1701 find a way to do output (Debian #205509). 1702 + modify sample scripts to use consistent definition of $DIALOG 1703 (Debian #205508). 1704 + add UTF-8 examples inputbox6-utf8, inputbox6-utf8 (from Tomohiro 1705 Kubota, Debian #195674). 1706 + modify print_line() to work with wide-characters, e.g., so it handles 1707 wrapping for double-width characters. 1708 + cache results from multibyte character indices, speeds up cursor 1709 movement. 1710 + modify form widget to support scrolling and mouse-selection. 1711 + add form widget (based on patch by Reznic Valery). 1712 + correct mouse-handling for inputmenu widget. 1713 + corrections to menu.c: location of clearing operation, and height of 1714 rows in code for older ncurses versions (patch by Reznic Valery). 1715 + improve logic that compensates for xterm's alternate-screen by 1716 cancelling the rmcup/smcup strings after the rmcup has been issued. 1717 That ensures that dialog will not clear the screen on exit (report 1718 by Javier Kohen). 1719 + modify initialization between widgets to retain the values for the 1720 --aspect, --separate-widget and --tab-len options. 1721 + add --separator as an alias for --separate-widget (compatible with 1722 Xdialog). 1723 + correct handling of Xdialog's --icon and --wmclass options, whose 1724 parameter was not ignored. 1725 + correct logic for --separate-widget so its string is written before 1726 each output, rather than only for --and-widget option (report by 1727 Javier Kohen). 1728 + improve limit-check in center_label() for buttons.c (report by Tor 1729 Vidar Havstad). 1730 + correct layout of --menu widget, which reduced display width due to 1731 logic for --inputmenu being applied whether or not that configuration 1732 was used (reports by Javier Kohen, Dimitar Zhekov and MAL 1733 <mal@komcept.com>). Fixes Debian #201215. 1734 + modify gauge widget to support --begin option (Hans-Joachim Baader). 1735 + updated pl.po (Jaroslaw Swierczynski). 1736 + hide cursor while painting gauge. 1737 + add auto-sizing logic to gauge widget (reports by Javier Kohen and 1738 Robert Schubert). 1739 17402003/07/20 1741 + rewrote inputstr.c, allowing it to enter and display wide-characters. 1742 Some nonprinting characters such as control/B can be edited as well. 1743 + modify timebox to allow user to type numbers into the fields. 1744 + change interfaces of dlg_getc(), mouse_wgetch(), etc., to add 1745 parameter that returns whether the result is really a function-key. 1746 This is needed to work with wide-character curses. 1747 + correct computation of week-number in calendar widget (report by 1748 Heiner Lamann). 1749 + updated configure script macros: 1750 + suppress -Winline with gcc 3.3, since it is broken. 1751 + fix caching bug in CF_UTF8_LIB 1752 + improved script for CF_BUNDLED_INTL. 1753 + update config.guess, config.sub 1754 17552003/03/08 1756 + add null-pointer checks to some malloc calls which were overlooked. 1757 + correct logic in dlg_add_result(), which did not copy content of 1758 non-allocated buffer to the first allocation (report by Daniel 1759 Dupont). 1760 17612003/03/02 1762 + correct an uninitialized value in dlg_add_result() (Debian #182683). 1763 17642003/01/30 1765 + corrected print_line(), which subtracted the margin twice from the 1766 right-limit, making a string wrap unnecessarily (Debian #168823). 1767 + correct initial limit-check for arrows in checklist.c, which used 1768 the wrong variable, showing the bottom arrow when it should not 1769 (Debian #168823). 1770 + modify driver to always call show_result(), to simplify updates. 1771 + fix several memory leaks, important if dialog is run with a large 1772 number of widgets (report by albert.veli@telia.com forwarded by 1773 Santiago Vila). 1774 + check if the screen output is actually to the terminal before trying 1775 to suppress xterm's alternate screen mode (see 2000/01/18) (report by 1776 David Oliveira). 1777 + use dialog_vars.input_result consistently to return the text which is 1778 printed after a widget completes. In many cases, dialog now 1779 allocates enough space to hold the text, rather than use a fixed 1780 buffer. The checklist widget was writing directly to the output to 1781 avoid limits of the fixed buffer. 1782 + modify dialog.c to also write dialog_vars.input_result if the 1783 Help-button was pressed (request by Amon Ott). 1784 + add hu.po (Arpad Biro). 1785 + update fr.po, pt.po, pt_BR.po to add strings for "Help" button (patch 1786 by Frederic L W Meunier). 1787 + fix off-by-one error in menu.c, checklist.c (reported by 1788 Tomasz Wasiak 2002/09/15 and others: 1789 Andrew Gaul 2002/11/12, 1790 Tobias C Rittweiler 2002/11/19, 1791 Arpad Biro 2003/01/21). 1792 + updated configure script, improving checks for ncurses in various 1793 locations, updated NLS script to match lynx. Added --with-curses-dir 1794 option. 1795 > Tobias C Rittweiler: 1796 + make ifdef in mousewget.c consistent with usage in dialog.h 1797 + use beep() rather than flash() in dlg_edit_string(), for consistency 1798 with the other functions. 1799 + change order of buttons so extra button falls between Ok/Cancel. 1800 + fix so "dialog --print-maxsize" exits from curses. 1801 + add --inputmenu option. 1802 18032002/08/14 1804 + modify checklist.c and menubox.c to treat the extra button like the 1805 "Ok" button by making dialog print the chosen items (request by 1806 Tobias C Rittweiler). 1807 + add examples checklist6 and menubox6 to illustrate the --colors 1808 option. 1809 + implement -colors option, which allows one to highlight words in the 1810 titles and most text areas with color or video attributes (adapted 1811 from patch by Tobias C Rittweiler). 1812 + add examples inputbox4, inputbox5 to illustrate how to use the 1813 --output-fd option, and how to use dialog without any temporary 1814 file at all. 1815 + add --output-fd option (Debian #153984). 1816 + documented vi-style keys for calendar, textbox widgets in manpage. 1817 18182002/06/22 1819 + improve mouse handling, e.g., for up/down scrolling in calendar, 1820 checklist, etc. 1821 + add --extra-button and --extra-label options (adapted from patch 1822 by Tobias C Rittweiler). 1823 + correct displayed cursor position in inputbox when returning to the 1824 input area after traversing the buttons with tabs, etc. 1825 + add left/right arrows for traversal in calendar and timebox dialogs. 1826 + implement two new functions dlg_next_ok_buttonindex() and 1827 dlg_prev_ok_buttonindex(), using these to hide details about the 1828 traversal over buttons in several widgets. 1829 + modify checklist.c and menubox.c to verify if both --help-button and 1830 --item-help are specified before assuming that selecting the help 1831 button should cause the "HELP {item-help}" message to be printed 1832 (reported by Marcel Ritter). 1833 + modify init_dialog() to work around HP's broken tty driver (report by 1834 John Mudd). Specifically, the problem is that when opening /dev/tty 1835 directly (to support the --stdout option), the terminal does not 1836 change to raw mode. The workaround opens /dev/tty only as needed; 1837 the --stdout option does not work on HPUX but otherwise dialog works. 1838 + updated el.po (patch by kromJx <kromJx@crosswinds.net>). 1839 18402002/05/19 - release 0.9b 1841 + add --no-collapse option to allow one to retain tabs and repeated 1842 blanks in a message box (request by Roberto Simoni). 1843 + use DLG_EXIT_ESC constant rather than -1's in several places. This 1844 has the effect of changing some exit-with-error cases to denote that 1845 the exit was because ESC was pressed (patch by Diego Alvarez, 1846 forward by Santiago Vila). 1847 + bump package version to 0.9b (with patch-date, as usual). 1848 + add --exit-label option (request by Roberto Simoni). 1849 + updated de.po to correct translation for "Cancel" (from Michael 1850 Piefel, Debian #146402). 1851 + use definitions from autoconf macro AC_HEADER_TIME to ensure that 1852 time() is properly prototyped. 1853 + update pl.po, adding translation for "Help" (patch by Jaroslaw 1854 Swierczynski <swiergot@hacking.pl>). 1855 + update COPYING file, to reflect address change of FSF (reported by 1856 Santiago Vila). 1857 + update some configuration script macros: CF_CHECK_CACHE, 1858 CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, CF_HEADER_PATH and CF_MAKEFLAGS. 1859 + correct misuse of "$with_XXX" variables in the configure script, 1860 which prevented configuration against curses library as opposed to 1861 ncurses. 1862 + update config.guess, config.sub 1863 18642002/03/09 (a) 1865 + modify geometry of samples/fselect scripts to allow them to run in 1866 a 24x80 screen (report/patch by Santiago Vila). 1867 + correct exit-code for menubox.c when Cancel is pressed. This was 1868 unintentionally altered when adding --help-button (reported by 1869 Patrick J Volkerding) 1870 18712002/03/09 1872 + add --timeout option, which forces the program to exit with an error 1873 if no user response is given within the specified number of seconds 1874 (request by <andrew@argoncorp.com>). 1875 + modify calendar widget to allow day/month/year values to default to 1876 the current date (request by <Ron.Perrella@bellsouth.com>). 1877 + modify display of buttons in checklist.c and menubox.c to handle the 1878 case where the button label is empty (Debian #134388). 1879 + extended logic for ok/cancel/help to make this work with checklist 1880 widget. 1881 + revert pt_BT.po, apply changes to pt.po (report by Frederic L W 1882 Meunier). 1883 > several changes from Stanislav Ievlev: 1884 + add options --help-button and --help-label to make menubox display a 1885 third button which can be used to return an exit code causing the 1886 calling script to show extended help information. 1887 + use home/end keys in input string-editing, e.g., inputbox. 1888 + add option --max-input to limit length of string returned by inputbox 1889 and other widgets which allow the user to edit a string. 1890 18912001/12/02 1892 + add --ok-label and --cancel-label options (request by Kyle Sallee). 1893 + correct usage message for --fselect option (reported by Patrick J 1894 Volkerding). 1895 + add samples/debian.rc, for comparison with slackware.rc 1896 + corrected samples/slackware.rc, which was just the compiled-in 1897 default values (patch by Patrick J Volkerding). 1898 + modify search rule for rc-file to add a global rc file /etc/dialogrc 1899 (patch by Patrick J Volkerding). 1900 + updated pt_BR.po with modified entries for fselect.c (Frederic L W 1901 Meunier). 1902 + add pl.po (Swiergot <swiergot@l02.ids.czest.pl>). 1903 19042001/11/11 1905 + modify command-line parsing to allow a "--" argument to act as an 1906 escape, so the next argument is not recognized as an option if it 1907 begins with "--". This is apparently one of popt's undocumented 1908 features, upon which some Debian scripts depend (Debian #116642). 1909 + add da.po (Morten Brix Pedersen <morten@wtf.dk>). 1910 + add an install-strip rule to makefile, changing the normal install 1911 rule to not strip the installed executable (based on discussion with 1912 Santiago Vila). 1913 + initialize my_output variable if user cannot open /dev/tty, e.g., if 1914 su'd to another user (patch by Richard Braakman (<dark@ssh.com>), Debian 1915 #117177). 1916 + add configure option --with-ncursesw, to allow configure/build with 1917 wide-character version of ncurses. 1918 19192001/10/14 1920 + add option --ignore, to make dialog be ignore options that it does 1921 not recognize. 1922 + add option --trim, to trim literal newlines and repeated spaces from 1923 text that will be displayed. Add samples/msgbox2, which is the 1924 same as msgbox1, but using --trim (cf: change for Debian #102942). 1925 + minor correction to attributes for buttons.c to use active_attr on 1926 the right-side of a button. 1927 + add a sample dialog rc-file slackware.rc based on diffs in hdasetup 1928 package at 1929 http://ftp1.sourceforge.net/pub/mirrors/slackware/slackware/source/a/hdsetup/ 1930 (discussion with Frederic L W Meunier). 1931 + modify dialog.pl to avoid using a statically-named tempfile, allowing 1932 multiple processes to use this script (patch by James Ranson 1933 (<euclid80@yahoo.com>), Debian #110609). 1934 + correct fprintf() call in j_menu() function, i.e., "--menu" option, 1935 which did not guard against expanding '%' embedded in the parameters 1936 (Stavros Chatzistefanidis <sxatz@yahoo.com>). 1937 + add et.po (Ivar Smolin <okul@trenet.ee>). 1938 + update fr.po (Frederic L W Meunier). 1939 + modify to allow scripts to alter the exit codes, mainly to 1940 distinguish ESC and ERROR exits. This is done by setting a shell 1941 variable such as DIALOG_ESC to a new value (request by Petr Vandrovec 1942 (<vandrove@vc.cvut.cz>), Debian #99264) 1943 19442001/08/27 1945 + use VPATH in makefile to support build with configure --srcdir, if 1946 the make program supports that. Note that samples/install/makefile 1947 is not generated, due to awkward limitation of autoconf script 1948 (reported by Frederic L W Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>). 1949 + add po/pt_BR.po (Frederic L W Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>). 1950 + correct sense of --enable/--disable shown in configure --help (report 1951 by Frederic L W Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>). 1952 + correct logic for --clear option, broken in 2000/07/02 (fixes Debian 1953 #110254). 1954 19552001/08/11 1956 + porting fixes to work on AIX: flush output to work around bug in 1957 curses library, use ./killall in scripts to avoid conflict with 1958 AIX program by that name. 1959 + modify dlg_trim_string() to retain literal newlines if the string 1960 does not contain "\\n" strings, and to retain leading blanks on the 1961 resulting lines, for compatibility with older scripts (Debian 1962 #102942). 1963 + add charset specification to cs.po 1964 + change dates in CHANGES to consistent format, add el.po for Greek 1965 (patch by kromJx <kromJx@crosswinds.net>). 1966 + eliminate static globals (bss, data) from modules rc, tailbox, 1967 textbox using better parameter-passing convention, and const. 1968 + cleanup temporary files in a few of the sample scripts. 1969 + rewrote tailboxbg using select() rather than fork(), thereby 1970 eliminating lock-files. Only one process should be trying to display 1971 on the screen at any given time. 1972 + add error check to ensure that numeric parameters are really numbers. 1973 + correct off-by-one in error messages reporting too-few or too-many 1974 tokens for a given option (reported by George Mirchev). 1975 + fix typo in manpage, "textboxbg" where "tailboxbg" was meant 1976 (reported by George Mirchev <la@mail.techno-link.com>). 1977 + use DLG_EXIT_xxx symbols consistently for all exit codes. 1978 + updated es.po (patch by Santiago Vila). 1979 + updates for some configure script macros from lynx: CF_MAKEFLAGS, 1980 CF_NCURSES_VERSION, CF_PROG_EXT. 1981 + fixes to compile if <term.h> is included, e.g., when building with 1982 AIX curses (report by Suzi Dowson <Suzi.Dowson@capgemini.co.uk>). 1983 19842001/05/27 1985 + updated dialog.pot 1986 + modify fselect.c to work with autosize, i.e., given height and width 1987 zero (report by Martin Povolny). 1988 + add a null-pointer check in justify_text(), needed by fselect.c 1989 + add several more options which dialog can safely ignore, from 1990 Xdialog 2.0.2 1991 + refinements for configure macros checking for $CPPFLAGS, from lynx. 1992 + update config.guess, config.sub to match autoconf 2.50 1993 > Martin Povolny <martin@solnet.cz>: 1994 + add cs.po 1995 + use nl_langinfo() to customize names for day-of-week, and month 1996 19972001/05/11 1998 > Vincent Stemen <dialog@AdvancedResearch.org>: 1999 Fixed dialog.c to not pass menu items through dlg_trim_string(). 2000 Stripping extra spaces out of the menu items broke some of my 2001 scripts by altering the string that it compared to know which menu 2002 item was selected. There should be no need to do justification on 2003 the menu items, which are always one line, anyway. 2004 20052001/04/29 2006 > Vincent Stemen <dialog@AdvancedResearch.org>: 2007 + rewrote the text justification code to be able to have preformatted 2008 text in the prompts with extra spaces like the older versions of 2009 dialog. If there are "\n" strings in the text, then extra spaces are 2010 preserved. Lines are always wrapped on word boundaries. 2011 + fixed --cr-wrap to break lines on '\n' (newline) characters and not 2012 add an extra line at the top and bottom of the text. It now works 2013 as the manual says it should. 2014 + it is no longer necessary to use "\n\" at the end of lines to escape 2015 the '\n' character. "\n" now works. However, the old way, "\n\" 2016 still works. 2017 + the fixes involved the following changes: 2018 - rewrote dlg_trim_string() to recognize preformatted text (know 2019 when not to strip extra spaces) and to pay attention to --cr-wrap. 2020 - rewrote justify_text() which now calls a new function in util.c, 2021 print_line(), to print each line and end it on a word boundary. 2022 - modified real_auto_size() to call a new function 2023 auto_size_preformated() to calculate the box size for preformatted 2024 text. 2025 - removed skip_blanks() and skip_text() since they are not used by 2026 the new justify_text(). 2027 - modified dialog.c to not call dlg_trim_string() on title strings 2028 so that titles retain their spaces. 2029 + modified the following demo files in the sample directory: 2030 - inputbox 2031 changed all "\n\" strings to "\n" to demonstrate the extra 2032 backslash is no longer needed. 2033 - inputbox1 2034 removed all the "\n\" strings from the end of the lines to 2035 properly demonstrate --cr-wrap. 2036 - msgbox1 2037 this sample was using "--aspect 9 --cr-wrap". Rewrote it to 2038 properly demonstrate --aspect. 9 is already dialog's default 2039 aspect ratio. It now creates several dialogs in sequence, 2040 demonstrating aspect ratios of 9, 12 and 6 and properly 2041 demonstrates --cr-wrap. 2042 + made the following changes to the manual (dialog.1). 2043 - rewrote the description of --aspect to be more understandable. 2044 - rewrote the description of --cr-wrap to be more correct and more 2045 detailed. It did say, "Otherwise, the text for each dialog will 2046 display on a single line.", which is not correct. It wraps the 2047 text to fit in the box. 2048 > T.Dickey: 2049 + use logic from menubox dialog in checklist to handle autosizing when 2050 list height is given as zero (fixes problem reported by Eric Veltman 2051 <eveltman@baan.nl>). 2052 + modify checklist and menubox dialogs to check for too-wide data, and 2053 truncate one or both of the name and text fields to fit (also 2054 reported by Eric Veltman). 2055 + corrected a few items from Vincent's patch: 2056 - use C89-style comments rather than C++ 2057 - restore logic in justify_text() which checks for win==0, needed to 2058 work with standard curses implementations other than ncurses. 2059 The first call on justify_text() passes a null pointer as a flag 2060 to indicate that checking should be done, but no screen updates. 2061 - avoid modifying the buffer in decode_percent(), otherwise a message 2062 containing a space or newline would be truncated at the whitespace. 2063 - modify dlg_button_x_step() and dlg_button_layout() slightly to 2064 work with altered print_autowrap(), etc. 2065 + fixes to build/work with SunOS 4.x 5lib curses 2066 20672001/04/15 2068 + fix a memory leak in mouse_region(). 2069 + simplify handling of optional parameters with new functions 2070 optional_str() and optional_num(). 2071 + add calendar and timebox dialogs (compatible with Xdialog). 2072 + correct typo in fallback definition for getparyx, and remove void 2073 cast for mouse_open and mouse_close which prevented build with 2074 Sun's Solaris compiler. 2075 + rename --enable-lxdialog configure option to --enable-Xdialog 2076 + modify CF_NCURSES_CPPFLAGS macro to match more variations of ncurses 2077 header files. 2078 + update config.guess, config.sub 2079 + modify some configure script macros to avoid problems with buggy 2080 autoconf 2.49c which breaks changequote(). 2081 20822001/01/15 2083 + small fix to revised real_auto_size() and justify_text() to avoid 2084 adding origin to box-width, which broke samples/wheel. 2085 + apply 1999/12/25 tempfile change to wheel and copismall samples. 2086 + add sample script for tailboxbg. 2087 + revised lock-file management to better ensure that locks are actually 2088 created by the tailbox subprocess(es). 2089 + correct hardcoded signal 15 in tailbox to SIGHUP to match 2090 documentation. Signal 15 is usually SIGTERM, which cannot be caught. 2091 + correct off-by-one comparison of return-value for arg_rest() which 2092 made 2093 dialog --gauge test 10 50 2094 dump core because it expected a 4th parameter (fixes Debian #80641). 2095 + resync config.sub, config.guess from 2096 http://subversions.gnu.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/config/ (which finally have 2097 cases for OS/2 EMX), minor tweaks to related configure script macros. 2098 20992000/12/17 2100 + restore treatment of predefined height/width in real_auto_size() 2101 which was lost in 2000/12/12 rewrite (report by Raphael Halimi 2102 <raphaelh@easynet.fr>). 2103 + updates for configure script macros AM_PATH_PROG_WITH_TEST, 2104 CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_LIB_PREFIX, CF_PROG_EXT for $PATHSEP and $CFLAGS 2105 fixes. 2106 21072000/12/13 2108 + correct change for create_lock(), which resulted in an infinite loop 2109 (patch by Chris Butler, <chrisb@debian.org>). 2110 21112000/12/12 2112 + rewrote print_autowrap() and real_auto_size() to share common code 2113 justify_text(), which now does text flow even when the string 2114 contains newlines (fixes Debian #77199). 2115 + improve create_lock() function using open() with O_EXCL rather than 2116 fopen() (patch by Matt Kraai (<kraai@debian.org>), Debian #78951). 2117 + correct description of --fselect in man page (patch by Tomas Pospisek 2118 (<tpo@spin.ch>), Debian #77200). 2119 + add --no-cancel as alias for --nocancel for compatibility with 2120 Xdialog (report by Luis E Limon <luisl@abriasoft.com>). 2121 21222000/10/27 2123 + some lint fixes using lclint (mostly void-casts, but some 2124 sign-extension fixes e.g., for ctype.h macros, and loop in 2125 dlg_char_to_button()). 2126 + modified to build/run on OS/2 EMX with ncurses. 2127 + minor changes to po/*.po (trim trailing blanks, provide explicit 2128 translation for "OK"), to work with Solaris gettext. 2129 + modified to allow this to build with archaic version (1.8.6) 2130 of ncurses on FreeBSD 3.1 (does not run). 2131 + update config.guess, config.sub from subversions.gnu.org 2132 21332000/10/17 2134 + use new function sub_window() to check success/failure of calls to 2135 subwin(), printing an error message if it fails (fixes Debian #74903). 2136 + use combination of isatty/ttyname to look for workable tty device 2137 on systems which have no /dev/tty, e.g., BeOS. 2138 21392000/10/08 2140 + change exiterr() to use stdarg.h, make some messages easier to 2141 understand. 2142 + add dialog_clear() 2143 + make samples/install/setup build. 2144 + implemented mouse support for buttons, e.g., in yesno dialog using 2145 ncurses (the gpm support no longer works, but is useful for reference) 2146 + add a configure check for chtype. 2147 + updates for configure script macros (CF_BUNDLED_INTL, CF_CURSES_LIBS, 2148 CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES, CF_GCC_WARNINGS, CF_INCLUDE_DIRS), and scripts 2149 config.guess, config.sub 2150 + cleanup of item-help change, integrate with checklist and radiobox. 2151 + add ja.po, from Hirofumi Takeda <takepin@turbolinux.co.jp>. 2152 > patch by Marco Mariani <marcom@sferacarta.com> 2153 + add --item-help option, which makes menubox data interpreted as 2154 3 columns rather than 2. The third column is displayed on the 2155 last line of the screen as a help/status message for the currently 2156 selected item. 2157 + add it.po, pt.po 2158 + change TAG_KEY_HL to FALSE, making unselected items in checklist 2159 easier to read on Linux console. 2160 21612000/07/30 2162 + change real_auto_size() to allow it to be used for dialogs that have 2163 no prompt, e.g., fselect. Also, rather than requiring both height 2164 and width to be given as -1 for maximizing the dialog, allow either 2165 alone. 2166 + increase minimum height needed for autosized yesno dialog. 2167 + add --version as an alias for --print-version. 2168 + fix for build on Solaris without NLS (cannot redefine 'gettext()'). 2169 + add fselect dialog (compatible with Xdialog). 2170 + add --enable-lxdialog configure option. 2171 + use new configure macro CF_ARG_MSG_ENABLE to show progress with 2172 enable/disable switches. 2173 21742000/07/02 2175 + implement --stdout and --stderr options as in Xdialog. 2176 + move logic that translates "\\n" into '\n' into main program to 2177 simplify logic that formats text. 2178 + make ifdef's for rc-file not specific to ncurses. 2179 + correct logic making percent parameter of gauge optional. 2180 21812000/06/29 2182 + add alternate test-script for gauge, adapted from Xdialog. 2183 + modify gauge to make optional a percentage which was read at the 2184 beginning of the XXX-delimited message text, since clones of dialog 2185 are written to assume this is text. If the line is not a simple 2186 integer, dialog will treat it as text. 2187 + make the percent parameter of gauge optional, as in Xdialog. 2188 + undo one use of CharOf() in guage.c, an error. 2189 + fix configure macro AM_WITH_NLS to refrain from attempting to make a 2190 symbolic link into/libintl.h if we are not using the bundled intl 2191 directory from gettext (reported by Julian Coleman 2192 <J.D.Coleman@newcastle.ac.uk>). 2193 + add ru.po, from Michael Sobolev <mss@transas.com> 2194 + updates for config.guess, config.sub from tin. 2195 + updates for configure script macros: CF_MATH_LIB (improperly nested 2196 brackets/parenthesis) and CF_XOPEN_CURSES (make include of 2197 <*curses.h> depend on configure tests). 2198 21992000/04/25 2200 + repaint screen when a control/L is pressed. 2201 + apply CharOf() macro to avoid sign-extension on calls to waddch(), 2202 fixes a problem with accented characters (reported by Santiago Vila). 2203 + add es.po, from Santiago Vila <sanvila@unex.es> 2204 22052000/04/23 2206 + modified to use gettext (configure option --enable-nls). This uses 2207 gettext 0.10.35, which must be previously installed. (It can also 2208 use an included intl library, but I consider that to be a waste of 2209 disk space). 2210 + remove code in checklist/radiobox, menubox that try to use 2211 abbreviations for the OK/Cancel buttons since those conflict with the 2212 check for abbreviations in list entries, which are more useful. 2213 + moved padding of button labels out of string literals, into the 2214 logic of dlg_draw_buttons(). 2215 + resync/update with configure macros CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_FIND_LIBRARY, 2216 CF_HEADER_PATH, CF_LIBRARY_PATH and CF_NCURSES_LIBS, as well as 2217 mkdirs.sh and config.guess. 2218 22192000/02/22 2220 + add --default-item option, for menubox to set the default selection 2221 (fixes Debian #49796). 2222 + add sample scripts for --nocancel and --fb options with inputbox. 2223 + modify inputbox* sample scripts to show application errors, if any. 2224 + add --nocancel option, and ignore --noitem, --fb, --fullbutton, to 2225 make this compatible with whiptail scripts. (whiptail does not 2226 handle many dialog scripts however). 2227 + modify checklist/radiobox to handle home, end, nextpage, prevpage 2228 keys, as well as make the abbreviation search work for the whole 2229 list, not only the current page. 2230 + treat KEY_LL the same as KEY_END in checklist and textbox. 2231 + add logic for KEY_BTAB. 2232 + use new function dlg_draw_buttons() to better manage the layout of 2233 yes/no/ok/cancel buttons. 2234 + another pass of cleanup of dialog.c, makes it use a single table for 2235 lookup of option names and help-message. Eliminated numerous 2236 adjustments to 'offset' variable. 2237 + on initialization, check if standard input is from a terminal. If 2238 not, open /dev/tty (fixes Debian #57771) 2239 22402000/02/05 2241 + implement inline editing in textbox.c search dialog. 2242 + revise inputbox.c, allowing inline editing with arrow-keys. removed 2243 redundant logic in that module. 2244 + correct a typo that prevented rc-file configuration from building. 2245 + correct ifdef's to compile/run if the curses implementation does not 2246 support color. 2247 22482000/01/23 2249 + improve test-case for gauge. 2250 + change gauge.c to show progress in reverse-video, add a check for 2251 end-of-file in the loop for reading new messages. 2252 + use curses whline() function to simplify print_arrows() logic in 2253 checklist.c and menubox.c 2254 + use curses beep() function rather than hardcoded strings. 2255 + correct several compiler warnings for gcc -pedantic (mismatch of 2256 const, signed/unsigned). 2257 + modify exiterr() to avoid possible expansion of '%'. 2258 + change CF_MATH_LIB configure macro to allow specifying a particular 2259 test-function. For dialog, this should be sqrt(). The macro was 2260 originally written for ncurses, which needs sin(). However, that is 2261 a builtin function on the m68k port (reported by Roman Hodek 2262 <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de>, this fixes Debian #55553). 2263 22642000/01/18 2265 + update manpage (Debian #25648). 2266 + modify configure test for math library to avoid using a constant 2267 parameter to the test function, lest gcc optimize the call away 2268 (fixes Debian #55553). 2269 + restructure help-message so actual problem is indicated. The original 2270 help-message is shown if no parameters are given, or if the --help 2271 option is specified alone. 2272 + suppress xterm's alternate screen mode by sending an exit_ca_mode 2273 after initscr if the terminal looks like xterm, e.g., has key_mouse 2274 defined, and has private-mode escapes in both enter_ca_mode and 2275 exit_ca_mode (fixes Debian #55181). 2276 + change yellow lettering on white to blue on white, since it offers 2277 better contrast (fixes Debian #51196). 2278 + use napms() rather than sleep(). 2279 + some cleanup/simplification of main program. Indent'd dialog.c and 2280 util.c 2281 + eliminate several places where repeated options are treated as 2282 an error, since they are really executed once anyway. 2283 22842000/01/15 2285 + remove pre-autoconf Makefile 2286 + remove sleep's from a few of the sample scripts, which left users 2287 thinking that dialog was slow to complete an action. 2288 + rewrote infobox sample script, using dialog's --sleep option and 2289 a loop in the script. 2290 + change 'ch' variable in tailbox.c to an integer, because it is 2291 compared against EOF (fixes Debian #53157). 2292 + corrected mandir variable in makefile.in (reported by Santiago Vila). 2293 + small changes to sample scripts, from Debian: rename "guage" script 2294 to "gauge", change path to copy of GPL used in textbox. 2295 + add uninstall rule to makefile.in, fixed some dependencies so 2296 "make install" works without first doing "make all". 2297 22981999/12/25 2299 + use more portable scheme for tempfile generation in samples. 2300 + add a configure script, prefer to not use the original Makefile 2301 because it works only with GNU make. 2302 + correct prototype of 'main()', which misused const. 2303 + modify guage.c to use fgets() rather than gets(). 2304 + merge changes from Debian package maintainer 2305 Santiago Vila <sanvila@ctv.es>: 2306 2307 1999/10/07 2308 + add a password dialog box (Debian #45964, patch by Joey Hess). 2309 + implement "--defaultno" option to specify if the default for 2310 the yes/no box is "No" (Debian #46076, patch by Joey Hess). 2311 1999/03/10 2312 + modify input.c to clear the input field to the right of the 2313 given string, to help with screen-refresh 2314 1998/12/08 2315 + check for list_height less than one in checklist.c (Debian 2316 #22239). 2317 1998/10/21 2318 + use function wscrl() in preference to scroll() in checklist.c 2319 and menubox.c (unclear: in ncurses, scroll() is a macro that 2320 uses wscrl()). 2321 + remove the "-I/usr/include/ncurses" option from Makefile 2322 since Debian does not install ncurses' header files into 2323 that directory. 2324 1998/09/12 2325 + simplify menubox.c using new functions print_arrows() and 2326 print_items(). add logic to handle KEY_NPAGE and KEY_PPAGE 2327 (Debian #26326). 2328 + modifications to provide sample scripts (Debian #26211): 2329 + change sample scripts to use Debian tempfile utility rather 2330 than putting files into /tmp. 2331 + change sample scripts to use 'dialog' from user's path 2332 rather than in the parent directory as in the build 2333 directory. 2334 + use the system copy of GPL rather than that in the build 2335 directory as an example for the textbox script. 2336 23371999/11/27 2338 + fix some gcc warnings about ambiguous use of "else" 2339 23401999/05/01 2341 + cleaned up some of the redundant code with new functions: 2342 box_x_ordinate 2343 box_y_ordinate 2344 draw_title 2345 draw_bottom_box 2346 new_window 2347 2348 + modified msgbox.c and yesno.c to work with the KEY_RESIZE sigwinch 2349 handling in ncurses 4.2 2350 2351 + corrected spelling of "gauge" 2352 2353The relevant portions of the Debian change log for the original version 2354(dialog-0.9a-12) are abstracted here, omitting details of their packaging: 2355 23561998/05/24 2357 2358 + Replaced guage.c by the one in dialog 0.6z, which is known to work. 2359 Fixes Debian #18284: unstable dialog. 2360 23611997/12/16 2362 2363 + dialog.c: dialog_input_result printed with "%s" format. This was 2364 Debian #9913, fixed by Bill Mitchell, but the change was lost. 2365 + Pristine source, .depend is not removed in clean target. Instead, it 2366 is made zero length (otherwise it would not work *without* fakeroot). 2367 + Added '^U' support in input box (Debian #9915, patch by Joey Hess). 2368 + Wrote patch to fix core-dumping problem (Debian #13170).
