1-- $Id: CHANGES,v 1.521 2015/09/20 23:48:54 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 72015/09/20 8 + decrease table value for minimum number of arguments for the widgets 9 which use --no-items option (report by Raven Singularity). 10 + update configure macros: 11 + use $SHELL consistently, deprecate non-POSIX shell 12 + PKG_CONFIG may simply be unset - fix 13 + add option to allow changing ABI version, from ncurses6. 14 152015/05/28 16 + fixes for two autoconf macros, CF_ADD_INCDIR and CF_NCURSES_CONFIG 17 from work on ncurses. 18 + build-fix for NetBSD curses (patch by Matthias Scheler). 19 202015/05/13 21 + add configure option --with-install-prefix, like ncurses. 22 + add --with-screen and related configure options from ncurses-examples 23 to allow building with ncurses6 test-packages. 24 + update configure macros for improved coding style from lynx changes. 25 + updated ro.po from 26 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 27 + update config.guess, config.sub 28 > patches by Florent Rougon: 29 + fix two bugs in the "--file" option. 30 + When the number of arguments read from the included file is 0, the 31 code used to just skip over '--file' and its argument instead of 32 removing them from the argument list, causing "Error: Unknown 33 option --file" later on. 34 + In the alternative case (at least one argument read from the file), 35 the previous code used to do '--j;' in order to "force rescan" of 36 the inserted arguments. However, control then flowed to outer 37 blocks where a '++j;' counteracted this measure, causing "Error: 38 Unknown option --msgbox" (for instance) later on. 39 + modify escaping in argv.c to be more uniform, whether or not the 40 backslash is found within a parameter. 41 422015/02/25 43 + modify gauge widget to keep from erasing a second gauge widget, e.g., 44 via the "--and-widget" option. This is a cosmetic change to match 45 behavior of dialog 1.0 (report by Jason Orendorf). 46 + add configure option "--with-man2html" 47 + add configure options for versioned symbols, from ongoing work on 48 ncurses. 49 + update configure macros, e.g., for shared libraries 50 512015/01/25 52 + suppress highlighting of character which denotes an abbreviation or 53 shortcut for the OK/Cancel and other buttons for these widgets, which 54 use abbreviations for the list shown on the screen: buildlist, 55 checklist/radiobox, menubox, treeview (Debian #775295). 56 + add grid up/left and down/right bindings in editbox.c as synonyms for 57 field prev and next, respectively when handling the OK/Cancel buttons 58 (Debian #775294). 59 602014/09/11 61 + correct malloc-size for change to prgbox. 62 632014/09/10 64 + fixes to make "-c" option work when passing command to shell for the 65 prgbox widget, for example in samples/prgbox2 (report by Korantin 66 Auguste). 67 682014/09/08 69 + fix an out-of-bounds array index in buildlist widget (report by 70 Cade Foster). 71 722014/09/01 73 + add configure check for groff, needed for html/ps/pdf output. 74 + update configure-script macros: 75 + CF_ACVERSION_CHECK - work around another gratuitous incompatibility 76 introduced in 2.69 77 + CF_ADD_CFLAGS - workaround for ash-shell, e.g., with Minix 78 + CF_ADD_LIBS - filter out duplicates 79 + CF_CURSES_FUNCS - improve workaround for weak-linkage, seems to fix 80 tests with NetBSD 6.1 81 + CF_INTEL_COMPILER - clean up the -no-gcc option which was leftover 82 from testing. 83 + CF_LIB_SUFFIX - change suffix for AIX shared libraries to ".so". 84 + CF_MAKEFLAGS - workaround for GNU make 4.0 incompatibility with 85 previous releases. 86 + CF_XOPEN_SOURCE - add cases for Minix, UnixWare and improve the 87 workaround for Solaris. 88 + improve comparison in compare_cache() function, in case difference 89 between pointers does not fit in int's. 90 + updated de.po, es.po, hu.po, lv.po from 91 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 92 + update config.guess, config.sub 93 942014/02/19 95 + cleanup of manpages prompted by Gislason's comments. 96 + several changes to manpages to improve presentation (patches by 97 Bjarni I. Gislason, Debian #739180, Debian #739181) 98 + use "\/" when transitioning from italic to normal font 99 + correct an instance of "e.g,." 100 + use "\e" rather than "\\" to present a literal "\" 101 + improve formatting of table header 102 + remove some excess space-characters 103 + change a reference 0-9 to use "through" as the connector 104 + use "\&" to separate "." from a space to make the space shorter 105 + change a list's TP macro parameters to make the hanging text align 106 better with the adjacent paragraph 107 + add comma in a few places before "and" in a list 108 + separate units from numbers with a nonfillable space 109 + replace "-" with en-dash in a few places 110 + corrected argument indices after "--args" and "--file" to rescan the 111 argument list after removing/substituting those options. 112 + fix loops for "--file" option to handle cases with zero or no tokens at 113 all substituted (Redhat #1066168). 114 + add gd.po from 115 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 116 1172014/01/12 118 + improve calculation for amount to scroll in programbox when an "Ok" 119 button might obscure part of the data (report by Florent Rougon). 120 + modify program to permit --separate-output to be used with buildlist 121 and treeview widgets (report by Florent Rougon). 122 + add list-height parameter to manpage description of --buildlist 123 (report by Florent Rougon). 124 + minor fixes to dialog.1 manpage; the reported problem was actually 125 fixed in 20120703 (Debian #726233, patch by Bjarni Ingi Gislason). 126 + add a "Hello World" example to dialog.3 manpage (prompted by 127 discussions with Dustin Oprea, Kevin Ingwersen). 128 + correct comparison in dlg_lookup_key() so that using "bindkey" with 129 a "*" wildcard parameter works as documented (report by Stewart 130 Benedict). 131 + updated configure macros, fixes for clang and mingw. 132 + update config.guess, config.sub 133 1342013/09/28 135 + fix a regression in gauge widget from 2013/09/28 changes; 136 dlg_reallocate_gauge() failed when no --title option was given 137 (report by Tritonas Insomnia). 138 1392013/09/23 140 + fix samples/inputbox6-utf8, which had depended unnecessarily on bash. 141 + improve memory caching for wide-character manipulation in gauge 142 widget (report by Devin Teske). 143 + add dlg_reallocate_gauge (discussion with Devin Teske). 144 + updated configure macros to use msys changes from ncurses. 145 + update config.guess, config.sub 146 1472013/09/02 148 + modify makefile rule to make the ".png" filenames created by groff 149 predictable. 150 + add option --help-tags to allow scripts to get the item's tag field 151 consistently from help- and help-item button results rather than 152 getting the item's text for the latter (discussion with Florent 153 Rougon). 154 + correct manpage discussion of DIALOG_ITEM_HELP versus --item-help, 155 as well as --help-button return status (report by Florent Rougon). 156 + correct limit used for --hline option (report by Devin Teske, 157 cf: 2011/06/30). 158 + do not print empty "[]" if a --hline option was given with an empty 159 value (report by Devin Teske). 160 + miscellaneous configure script fixes/updates. In particular, add 161 option --with-shared which builds shared libraries without a libtool 162 dependency. 163 + add FreeBSD port-files for test-builds. 164 + update lt.po, add fa.po from 165 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 166 + update config.guess, config.sub 167 1682013/05/23 169 + modify ifdef in arrows.c to work around packages which use the 170 wide-character ncursesw headers with the ncurses library (report 171 by Aleksey Cheusov). 172 + correct workaround for xterm alternate-screen to work with/without 173 the fix made in ncurses that makes putp() always write to the 174 standard output (Debian #708829). 175 + improve limit-checks for checklist, in case the dialog is resized 176 (report by Ilya A Arkhipov). 177 + add --last-key option (adapted from patch by Jordi Pujol, Debian 178 #697607). 179 1802013/03/15 181 + update zh_TW.po, add an.po from 182 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 183 1842012/12/30 - release 1.2 185 + improve some older changelog entries to help with HTML'izing content. 186 + various fixes/improvments for scrollbar appearance. 187 + add mappings for some equivalent options provided by whiptail; 188 add configure option --disable-whiptail to allow suppressing these. 189 + add configure option --disable-Xdialog2 to allow suppressing the 190 newer features, i.e., for cdialog 1.2 191 + add --no-items option, for consistency. 192 + add --no-tags option, like Xdialog. 193 + add buildlist, rangebox and treeview dialogs, like Xdialog. 194 + remove obsolete workaround for ncurses 4.2 scrolling in checklist 195 and menubox. 196 + improve dialog_helpfile() by preventing it from showing extra buttons 197 (suggested by xDog Walker). 198 + correct logic in formbox's scroll_next() function (report by xDog 199 Walker). 200 + fix a case with inputbox widget where preset input text is not shown 201 until moving the cursor within the text (report by xDog Walker). 202 + handle SIGCHLD in dialog_prgbox() to eliminate defunct processes 203 (report by xDog Walker). 204 + improve the way "hotkeys" are assigned to widget buttons by checking 205 if a given key has already been used in the row of buttons (Debian 206 #684933). 207 + amend fix for --trace parsing from 2012/07/03, which sometimes 208 skipped a parameter (report by xDog Walker). 209 + drop copismall and install files from samples, which were essentially 210 nonfunctional. 211 + correct secondary border colors in samples/slackware.rc and 212 samples/whiptail.rc 213 + update gl.po, add ia.po from 214 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 215 + fix various issues reported by coverity scan. 216 + miscellaneous configure script fixes/updates: 217 + require autoconf 2.52+patches 218 + support --datarootdir option 219 + check for clang compiler 220 + check for tinfo library when looking for ncurses 221 + add 3rd parameter to AC_DEFINE for autoheader 222 + remove unused macros from aclocal.m4 223 + update config.guess, config.sub 224 2252012/07/06 226 + modify samples/setup-tempfile to work with Tru64's shell. 227 + modify inputmenu sample scripts to make them more portable: 228 + use "id" rather than "$GROUPS", use sed to work with Solaris. 229 + use sed to split-up the rename results to work with HPUX. 230 + fix regression in msgbox (ArchLinux #30574) 231 2322012/07/03 233 + modify prgbox widget to work with --extra-button, etc. 234 + add case values to several widgets to allow for mouse-clicks with 235 "--extra-button" and "--help-button" additions. 236 + correct timebox widget's exit code for "--extra-button" when handing 237 the "enter" key. 238 + modify msgbox widget to honor "--extra-button". 239 + corrected processing of "--trace" option, which did not update the 240 index into command-line to point past its value. 241 + add a check in dialog program for valid characters used in option, 242 e.g., to generate an error if a script attempts to add option value 243 using "=" rather than with whitespace. 244 + add new command-line option --default-button and library function 245 dlg_default_button() to retrieve the value set by the option 246 to provide a way to set the default button directly rather than 247 by combining --nook, etc. (patch by Zoltan Kelemen). 248 + amend include of unctrl.h to apply only to the case where curses.h 249 is included, to avoid conflict of ncurses' unctrl.h with a system 250 implementation (report by Martin Roedlach) 251 + add limit-check to dlg_toupper() in non-wide curses mode to work 252 when non-character values such as arrow-key codes are passed to 253 it (patch by Zoltan Kelemen). 254 + override timeout value, e.g., as set via --timeout command-line 255 option in pause widget because that interferes with pause's behavior 256 (report by Jan Spitalnik). 257 + modify samples/inputmenu* to allow ":" in renamed text (report by 258 Andreas Stoewing). 259 + modify double-quoting to make it more consistent, i.e., checklist 260 output is quoted only when needed. This fixes the case where 261 single-quotes were used whether or not needed, but also modifies 262 older checklist behavior for double-quoting which always added those 263 (Debian #663664). 264 + correct exit-code used in inputmenu for "rename" button (Debian 265 #673041, forwarded from Ubuntu #333909, patch by Lebedev Vadim). 266 + update el.po and hr.po from 267 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 268 + use checkbashisms to clean up sample scripts. 269 2702012/02/15 271 + modify menubox.c to use the same improvement as in checklist.c 272 + improve auto width computation for checklist widget by using 273 dlg_calc_list_width as in the non-auto case (Edho Arief). 274 + eliminate some bashisms in the sample scripts (Pedro Giffuni). 275 + makefile fixes from FreeBSD ports (Li-Wen Hsu): 276 + make --with-package option of configure script work. 277 + get LIBTOOL_VERSION from configure script, needed by 278 ${LIBTOOL_VERSION} in LIBTOOL_CREATE (LIB_CREATE in configure and 279 aclocal.m4) 280 + update cs.po and sr.po from 281 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 282 + updated configure script macros, improving CF_XOPEN_SOURCE among 283 other fixes. 284 2852011/10/20 286 + fix --analyze warnings for clang versions 2.8, 2.9. 287 + add configure check for lint program. 288 + add check in dlg_getc() in case its window is freed as a side effect 289 of removing callbacks. 290 + fix logic in freeing subwindows (report by xDog Walker). 291 + fix a regression in logic distinguishing between inputmenu and menu 292 widgets (report by xDog Walker). 293 + minor fixes to library manpage. 294 2952011/10/18 296 + modify header-sh.in to work around limit on sed script length on 297 HPUX. 298 + add a special case of parameter parsing for "--trace" to the 299 initialization done before calling init_dialog(), to allow users to 300 capture the initial state of the parameter list before any options 301 are processed and removed. This is only done if "--trace" is the 302 first option, otherwise it is handled in the common options as before 303 (report by xDog Walker). 304 + modify samples/testdata-8bit, discarding $1 from the parameter list 305 if it was used, so that the source'ing scripts can consistently use 306 "$@" to insert parameters before the widget, e.g., as an alternative 307 to using $DIALOGOPTS (report by xDog Walker). 308 + modify treatment of function pointers in menubox.c, make 309 dlg_renamed_menutext() and dlg_dummy_menutext() visible to library 310 users (request by xDog Walker). 311 + add dlg_count_real_columns(), use to modify centering for "--hline" 312 text to account for "\Z"s (report by xDog Walker). 313 + improve check in dlg_draw_arrows2() for conflict between the window 314 title and up-arrow marker to take into account that the given window 315 may not be the top-level window of the widget. 316 + change width of page up/down mouse areas in fselect panes to use the 317 full width of the panes rather than only the portion from the left 318 margin to the up/down arrow. 319 + add/use dlg_draw_box2() and dlg_draw_bottom_box2() to use the 320 secondary borders. 321 + modify rc-file read/write to accept/generate color values that refer 322 to previously-processed items in the color table. This reduces the 323 number of distinct colors that must be specified to set up a color 324 scheme. 325 + add color table entries for secondary borders, i.e., the ones that 326 are normally drawn with the dialog's text-colors (Debian #641168). 327 + modify fselect.c to scan the current directory if the input field 328 happens to be empty (Debian #640905). 329 + repeated the discussion of environment variables that can override 330 the exit-status values in the manpage's return-codes section 331 (Debian #642105). 332 + add an example to the manpage showing how to override the form 333 widget's keys used for field/button traversal (Debian #642108). 334 + modify call to dlg_register_window() in formbox.c so that the editing 335 bindings are attached to the form sub-window rather than the 336 top-level dialog window. Also change the name by which the editing 337 bindings are bound for editbox.c, fselect.c and inputbox.c, so that 338 the editing and navigation bindings can be different. 339 + correct logic in dlg_lookup_key() so that it matches the widget name 340 before using a binding from .dialogrc, allowing the inner/outer 341 windows of form and other editing widgets to have different bindings. 342 + modify dlg_register_window() to call dlg_dump_window_keys() after 343 its updates, via the --trace output, to supplement the manpage 344 description of key bindings (Debian #642108). 345 + add DLGK_FORM_PREV and DLGK_FORM_NEXT key-bindings to form.c, to 346 allow binding a single key to traverse both form-fields and buttons 347 (Debian #642108). 348 + modify dlg_parse_rc() to check for error return from 349 dlg_parse_bindkey(). 350 + add function dlg_dump_window_keys(), to help with debugging widgets. 351 + add CR, LF, TAB, FF and ESC to table of curses names to help make 352 key bindings more readable. 353 + update table of dialog key-names so that helpfile and trace are 354 dumped properly. 355 + correct dlg_dump_keys(), which was showing only the first item in 356 the matched binding table. 357 + save/restore window current position in dlg_update_mixedgauge(). 358 + pass return-code from pause_for_ok() from dlg_progressbox() when 359 pauseopt is set, rather than only DLG_OK. 360 + call setlocale() in init_dialog() rather than relying on on-demand 361 use within inputstr.c, since there are paths in textbox widget which 362 do not exercise the latter (report by xDog Walker). 363 + fix some places where checks for "\Z" were done without also checking 364 dialog_vars.colors (report by Moray Henderson). 365 + correct logic for DIALOGOPTS parsing so that the parse happens only 366 once unless memory leak checking is enabled (report by xDog Walker). 367 + remove an incorrect free() call in dlg_free_gauge() (report by xDog 368 Walker). 369 + modify dlg_trace_win() to log wide-characters (report by xDog Walker). 370 + make traces shorter by skipping repeated ERR's, but showing the 371 number skipped (report by xDog Walker). 372 + improve description in manpage to distinguish program box and 373 progress box from tailboxes (adapted from email by xDog Walker). 374 + modify dlg_trace_win() so that it looks for the topmost window in a 375 dialog. Because subwindows share space with the top window, tracing 376 the latter shows the whole widget (report by xDog Walker). 377 + expand tracing so that each window is traced before soliciting input, 378 making the ^T feature to print a window on demand partly redundant 379 (suggested by xDog Walker). 380 + cosmetic change in dialog.h to avoid "*/*" strings from comments next 381 to "*" (report by xDog Walker). 382 + ensure result from dlg_align_columns() has trailing null on each 383 string. Analysis was hindered by libc6's continuance of libc5's 384 early-1990s misfeature of clearing the result from malloc, noting 385 that libc6's documentation incorrectly claims that it does not do 386 this (report by xDog Walker). 387 3882011/07/07 389 + modify util.c to work better with old versions of ncurses: 390 + suppress use of wchgat() before fix in 20060715 which is needed 391 for simple shadow manipulation used here in 2011/06/30 (report 392 by xDog Walker). 393 + add a null-pointer check in dlg_print_scrolled() 394 + fix a regression in dlg_getc() introduced by changes to intercept 395 F1 for help-popup (report by xDog Walker). 396 3972011/06/30 398 + correct license statement for prgbox.c (Debian #632198). 399 + correct layout when "--colors" is used, by discounting characters in 400 the escape sequences from the column counts (report by xDog Walker). 401 + modify dlg_checklist() so that only one item in the list can 402 initially be selected (report by xDog Walker). 403 + add/use macro dlg_enter_buttoncode() to improve implementation of 404 "--nook" option (report by xDog Walker). 405 + add option "--no-nl-expand" to suppress the conversion of "\n" 406 strings into newlines (request by xDog Walker). 407 + modify LIB_CREATE symbol in makefile.in to include the library 408 dependencies such as ncurses. This is needed when dynamically 409 loading the library (report/analysis by xDog Walker). 410 + modify dlg_exit_label() to suppress the Cancel button, for 411 consistency. 412 + modify dlg_exit_label() to honor the --nook option, except when there 413 is no other button, e.g., the help-button. 414 + modify dlg_exit_buttoncode() so that it returns the proper code for 415 help-button (report by xDog Walker). 416 + correct loop limit when processing "--column-separator" (report by 417 xDog Walker). 418 + modify handling of "--version" and "--help" to ensure that they are 419 processed, and exit before widgets. Separate "--print-version" 420 from "--version", allowing its output to be interspersed with 421 widget output (report by xDog Walker). 422 + correct a few places where "--version" or "--help" options went 423 always to stdout rather than allowing redirection with the "--stderr" 424 option (report by xDog Walker). 425 + improve repainting after erasing a widget and its shadow. 426 + add "--hline" and "--hfile" options for compatibility with FreeBSD 427 dialog (request by Devin Teske). 428 + add dialog version message when opening a trace file (request by 429 xDog Walker). 430 + show filename of rc-file in traces. 431 + add piped-in data for gauge widget to traces. 432 + add entrypoints to gauge widget, for allocating, updating and freeing 433 the widget (adapted from patch by Stephen Hurd). 434 + fix a reference to freed memory in the gauge widget. 435 + fix --no-mouse option by actually closing the mouse (report by 436 xDog Walker). 437 + add sk.po from 438 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 439 + limit Solaris xpg4 portability fix for redefinition of ERR to cover 440 the specific value found in <sys/regset.h>, in case an application 441 includes dialog.h after curses.h (FreeBSD #156601, report by Jaakko 442 Heinonen, Stephen Hurd). 443 + updated configure macros: 444 + CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, 445 + CF_CURSES_LIBS, make checks for special libraries on hpux10 and 446 sunos4 optional 447 + CF_CURSES_FUNCS, workaround for bug in gcc 4.2.1 (FreeBSD 8.1) 448 which caused part of test program to be omitted, i.e., when it saw 449 two return-statements in a row it omitted the _first_ one. Also 450 add expression to pointer check to help FreeBSD's linker decide it 451 should be validated. Just an assignment was not enough. Also, add 452 check for unctrl.h 453 + CF_CURSES_HEADER, change order for curses.h / ncurses.h pairs to 454 put ncurses.h first, which will tend to provide the same #define's 455 as in CF_NCURSES_HEADER (report by Dennis Preiser). 456 + CF_CURSES_TERM_H, modify to avoid spurious check for 457 <curses.hterm.h> if there is no ncurses version. Look for 458 ncurses's term.h anyway, to work around breakage by packagers who 459 separate ncurses' header files. 460 + CF_DISABLE_RPATH_HACK, fix garbled message 461 + CF_LD_RPATH_OPT, add mirbsd 462 + CF_MAKEFLAGS, filter out GNU make's entering/leaving messages. 463 This only appeared when using the macro in a dpkg script, though it 464 should have in other cases. 465 + CF_RPATH_HACK, add a check for libraries not found, e.g., from 466 suppressed functionality of gcc in linking from /usr/local/lib, and 467 add a -L option to help work around this. 468 + CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, workaround for cygwin to get ncurses' configure 469 script to define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED (cygwin's features.h 470 doesn't do anything, so it needs a crutch). 471 + update config.guess, config.sub 472 4732011/03/02 474 + add --prgbox and --programbox (adapted from patch by David Boyd). 475 + add sl.po from 476 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 477 + fix timeouts from 2011/01/18, which were being interpreted as 478 milliseconds rather than seconds (report by Luis Moreira). 479 4802011/01/18 481 + fix inconsistency in return-codes for textbox when help-button is 482 used by making dlg_exit_buttoncode() a wrapper for 483 dlg_ok_buttoncode(). 484 + modify pause widget to use dlg_ok_buttoncode(), so help-button works. 485 + correct two infobox sample scripts, which did not pass extra 486 command-line parameters due to quoting problems. 487 + add a limit-check to the timebox widget (patch by Garrett Cooper). 488 + modify --trace option to also trace the command-line parameters. 489 + account for combining characters when wrapping text (Debian #570634). 490 + correct handling of SIGWINCH in gauge widget (Debian #305705). 491 + add gauge_color, to make guage's progress-bar distinct from 492 title_color (request by Dominic Derdau). 493 + update fi.po from 494 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 495 as well as resync line-numbers in the other po-files. 496 + modify configure script and dialog program to build with NetBSD's 497 wide-character curses functions, including workarounds for its 498 incorrect WACS_xxx definitions. Some of the UTF-8 examples work. 499 + add back-tab for traversal of tailboxbg widgets, for symmetry with 500 tab-traversal. 501 + reduce flicker in tailboxbg by checking if the input file size has 502 changed. 503 + modify internals of callbacks to avoid blocking reads of their 504 associated files by keyboard input. 505 + add command-line option --no-mouse, to suppress use of mouse. 506 + add configure option --enable-header-subdir to allow the header files 507 to be installed into a subdirectory named for the package. 508 + modify dlg_restore_vars() to retain the updated values of 509 input_result and input_length, eliminating the need for a caller to 510 provide their own user buffer (prompted by report by Thiago Bimbatti 511 Felicio). 512 + add a null-pointer check in show_result() for 513 dialog_vars.input_result, and ensure it is set to null after freeing 514 (prompted by report by Thiago Bimbatti Felicio). 515 + change order of -I options in CPPFLAGS (report by Michel Feldheim) 516 + modify pause-widget so that it no longer exits when an unrecognized 517 key is pressed (patch by Creidieki M Crouch). 518 + add --with-package option to configure script to allow renaming 519 of the dialog program and library, to support the package scripts. 520 + add Debian and RPM package scripts for test-builds. 521 + several improvements to configure script: 522 + quote params of ifelse() 523 + change obsolete ${name-value} to standard ${name:-value} 524 + use new macros CF_ADD_LIB/CF_ADD_LIBS to enforce consistency. 525 + AM_GNU_GETTEXT, drop $MKINSTALLDIRS, use "mkdir -p" consistently. 526 + CF_ADD_SUBDIR_PATH, workaround - if $prefix was not mkdir'd yet, no 527 directories were added. 528 + CF_BUNDLED_INTL, add --with-textdomain option, to use with lynx-dev 529 package 530 + CF_FIND_LINKAGE, simplify save/restore of $LIBS 531 + CF_GCC_WARNINGS, fix for Mac OS X (compiler makes conftest.dSYM 532 directory) 533 + CF_HEADER_PATH, don't search for variations of everything in the 534 current include-path 535 + CF_WITH_CURSES_DIR, move the calls to CF_ADD_INCDIR and 536 CF_ADD_LIBDIR for the curses-directory here, from 537 CF_NCURSES_CPPFLAGS and CF_NCURSES_LDFLAGS, so it will work even 538 with the default checking, e.g., no --with-ncurses, etc. 539 + update config.guess, config.sub 540 5412010/04/28 542 + several improvements to configure script: 543 + modify CF_CURSES_TERM_H to handle cases such as cygwin where 544 packager has installed curses.h and term.h in different 545 directories, e.g., to wedge in a termcap library. 546 + modify CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, adding special case for OpenSolaris 547 + modify CF_MAKE_TAGS to add check for exctags and exetags, prefer to 548 ctags and etags to work around pkgsrc (NetBSD) renaming. 549 + correct CF_FIND_LINKAGE, setting cache variable for library_file in 550 the special case where no directory search is made. 551 + improve CF_GCC_VERSION, suppress stderr for c89 alias of gcc. 552 + improve CF_GCC_WARNINGS, moving -W and -Wall into the list to 553 check, since c89 alias for gcc complains about these options. 554 + modify CF_HEADER_PATH, to not search for variations of everything 555 in the current include-path 556 + use "mkdir -p", remove mkdirs.sh 557 + use CF_CURSES_HEADER to fill in possible subdirectory used for 558 ncurses header filename. 559 + modify CF_XOPEN_CURSES to work around current ncurse header loss of 560 predefinition of _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED 561 + add "--disable-rpath-hack" option, along with scripting to add 562 rpath option to libraries found in unusual places. 563 + modify pause widget to autosize like gauge, and to omit the area for 564 buttons when none are displayed. 565 + fix an infinite loop in dlg_button_layout() if there are no buttons 566 to display (Debian #579390). 567 + add makefile rules for generating html, etc., documentation from 568 nroff. 569 > patches by Samuel Mart�n Moro 570 + reset errors in tailbox before reading new character. 571 + modify dlg_draw_scrollbar(), omitting hiding percentages in boxes 572 when no arrows or scrollbar are needed. 573 + correct value of row for scrollbars in formbox. 574 + update es.po from 575 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 576 5772010/01/19 578 + split up binding tables in inputbox and similar widgets to avoid 579 conflict between cursor-key use for input-string versus navigation 580 (report by slakmagik). 581 + if strftime() is available, support --time-format option for timebox 582 widget. 583 + if strftime() is available, support --date-format option for calendar 584 widget (request by Walter Harms). 585 + build-fixes for linking to intl library in /usr/local 586 + add --scrollbar option, use in most widgets to show a scrollbar on 587 the right margin of the data. That is cosmetic, does not respond to 588 the mouse. 589 + reuse functions from msgbox to allow prompt for yesno box to be 590 scrolled in a too-small window. 591 + correct mapping of button-codes with --nook option (report by Lebedev 592 Vadim). 593 + cleanup sample scripts using new utility scripts setup-* and report-*, 594 and allow command-line parameters to be added, for ad hoc testing. 595 + correct change to tailbox widget from 2009/02/22 using 596 dlg_button_layout(), which broke that widget. 597 + document some of the portability caveats. 598 + modify gauge widget to service callbacks (prompted by patch and 599 comments by Frank Sorenson). 600 + modify editbox to allow its input buffer to be larger than MAX_LEN 601 unless bounded by the --max-input option, and add limit-checks for 602 the buffer (report by slakmagik). 603 + improve manpage description of --checklist (report by Isaac Good). 604 + several improvements to configure script macros: CF_ADD_CFLAGS 605 CF_CURSES_FUNCS CF_DISABLE_ECHO CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES CF_MATH_LIB 606 CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE CF_REMOVE_DEFINE CF_WITH_LIBTOOL CF_XOPEN_SOURCE 607 + add is.po, lv.po, sw.po from 608 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 609 + update de.po, id.po, pl.po, pt_BR.po, vi.po from 610 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 611 6122009/02/22 613 + do not display top-arrows for scrolling if they would overwrite the 614 title (report by slakmagik) 615 + consistently use dlg_button_layout() when autosizing widgets (report 616 by slakmagik). 617 + add "-" and "+" bindings to timebox widget. 618 + add "-" and "+" bindings to calendar widget (OpenSolaris #6739031). 619 + review/fix other widgets to ensure that they exit on error, e.g., 620 editbox.c 621 + modify check in dlg_getc() to treat closure of either stdin or stdout 622 as an error, rather than both. This is more stringent than the check 623 added in 2007/07/04. 624 + modify dlg_result_key() to map curses ERR to dialog's error exit 625 (adapted from patch by Domagoj Pensa). 626 + updated several configure script macros: 627 + consistently append, rather then prepend, to $CFLAGS 628 + add cases for AIX 6, mint, and dragonfly to CF_XOPEN_SOURCE 629 + use $PATH_SEPARATOR rather than $PATHSEP 630 + improve CF_FIND_LINKAGE, use in checks for more libraries, e.g., 631 libutf8 and libiconv. 632 + update da.po, ru.po from 633 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 634 + update config.guess, config.sub 635 6362008/08/19 637 + amend changes to quoting; by default, the checklist widget quotes its 638 output except when --separate-output is used (Debian #495600). 639 + add eo.po from 640 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 641 6422008/07/27 643 + add pointer-check when closing piped input (cf: 2007/03/25) 644 + use here-documents rather than echo, when passing backslashes in 645 strings, to accommodate the Debian shell "dash" (Debian #489563). 646 + recode several ".po" files to UTF-8 for consistency. 647 + change --separator to be an alias for --output-separator, for 648 compatibility with Xdialog. 649 + add --output-separator option to allow scripts to change the output 650 separator from a newline (for --separate-output) or a space. This 651 applies to other widgets such as forms and editboxes which normally 652 use a newline. 653 + add --column-separator option, to tell where column-aligned data for 654 radio/checkboxes or menus should be split into columns (request by 655 Ben Dibbens). 656 + add id.po, ku.po, lt.po, nb.po and update ca.po, fr.po, gl.po, ja.po, 657 th.po from 658 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 659 + add "--quoted" option, to quote values returned by formbox, etc. 660 + change names of EX/ES macros in dialog.1 to work around name- 661 pollution caused by changes in Debian #470729. 662 6632008/03/16 664 + modify dlg_mouse_wgetch() to loop only on errors that it detects, 665 rather than on errors forwarded from dlg_getc(), in case those are 666 due to a disconnected terminal (report by Anatoli Sakhnik). 667 + allow "default" color in dialogrc file (request by Dashing). 668 + fix an indexing error in formbox (Debian #469190, report by Dmitry 669 Gomerman, patch by Vladimir Mezentsev). 670 + add bindings for CTL/N, CTL/P to checklist, fselect and menubox 671 widgets (prompted by discussion with John Gatewood Ham). 672 + add be@latin.po, th.po and update zh_TW.po from 673 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 674 > patches by Peter Astrand: 675 + modify dlg_auto_sizefile() to ensure the computed height and width 676 do not extend beyond the screen size. 677 + use unctrl() to make inputstr.c work with Solaris curses. 678 > patches by Yura Kalinichenko: 679 + extend pause widget to use ok/cancel buttons (the former giving the 680 same result as a timeout), rather than an exit-button. 681 + fix initialization parameter of inputbox for multibyte characters. 682 6832007/10/28 684 + improve layout of checklist.c, menubox.c, ensuring that the list fits 685 within the available space (report by Gordon Schumacher). 686 + undo removal of redundant chunk from checklist.c in 2007/02/27, 687 since some scripts depend on this (Debian #443077). 688 + update nl.po from 689 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 690 6912007/09/30 692 + correct cursor position in editbox after deleting past left margin 693 (report by Joe McDonagh). 694 + add "--no-ok" option (patch by Klaus Knopper). 695 + modify "--file" option to allow it to read from sources other than 696 a regular file (patch by Pieter van Beek). 697 + improved hi.po (Hindi) (from Klaus Knopper). 698 + fix masking of attributes in dlg_draw_shadow() which lost 699 line-drawing bit (report by David Everly). 700 + fix editbox widget to handle zero-length files (report by Joe 701 McDonagh). 702 + update "po" files eu.po ga.po it.po ms.po sv.po vi.po wa.po zh_CN.po 703 from 704 http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/ 705 7062007/07/04 707 + revise the resizable shadows so textbox's search dialog has text 708 visible in the shadow again. 709 + improve the prefixing of autoconf-related symbols in the installed 710 header files, taking into account symbols which are not mentioned in 711 dlg_config.h 712 + add a check when ERR returned from wgetch() to ensure that the 713 input/output streams are still valid. If that happens, force 714 ESC to be returned, quitting dialog (report by Reiner Huober). 715 + add extern "C" declarations to dlg_keys.h so the corresponding 716 function declarations are exported to C++ as C symbols. 717 + update config.guess, config.sub 718 7192007/06/04 720 + fix a memory leak in editbox.c 721 + revise change from 2007/02/27 which moved the logic for trimming 722 option text out of the loop because that moved it before 723 initialization of the "--trim" option. Put it back in the loop, but 724 limit the tokens which are trimmed to cover only those for the 725 current widget. Also ensure that all tokens for a widget are 726 trimmed, rather than only the first, which is usually text (report by 727 Lai Zit Seng). 728 + add _FILE_OFFSET_BITS definition in CF_LARGEFILE configure macro. 729 7302007/05/28 731 + revise changes needed to make textbox's searchbox handle ncurses 732 resizing events, e.g., by handling the ERR in that code rather than 733 in dlg_getc() (Debian #423732). 734 7352007/05/14 736 + supply a repaint_text() call in tailbox.c which was bypassed because 737 dlg_getc() now retries on ERR (Debian #423732, cf: 2007/02/27). 738 + modify dlg_getc() to fix regression in 2007/02/27 for use of 739 timeouts, broken by fixes to allow resizing of textbox (patch by 740 Arnaud Fontaine, Debian #418905). 741 + modify dlg_getc() to fix regression in use of TAB for traversal of 742 tailboxbg widgets due to changes for user-definable key bindings 743 (Debian #418917, cf: 2005/12/07). 744 7452007/04/09 746 + add case in dlg_getc() to handle tab for traversing between widgets 747 as in the samples/tailboxbg1 script. Normally the key binding 748 overrides, except for the special case where multiple widgets are 749 available. 750 + add configure --with-libtool-opts, which passes its value to the 751 library creation and linkage passes, e.g., 752 --with-libtool-opts=-static 753 to force the result to be static libraries (prompted by a related 754 request by Santiago Vila). 755 > several fixes based on Coverity scan: 756 + fix memory leak in timebox, calendar widgets if the widget cannot 757 be created. 758 + fix memory leak in dlg_key.c if a user binding's storage cannot 759 be allocated. 760 + fix improperly delinked entry in dlg_del_window(). 761 7622007/03/25 763 + improve mkdirs.sh to ignore error from mkdir if the target directory 764 happens to already exist (suggested by Harald van Dijk). 765 + amend documentation for --gauge to reflect longstanding quirk which 766 allows it to read percentage from the first line after an "XXX" 767 (Debian #415596). 768 + fix makefile dependency so "configure && make install-lib" works. 769 + fix resizing of msgbox; the message was not repainted (Debian 770 #415022, patch by Brian Rolfe). 771 + fix typo in makefile LIB_OBJECT symbol from 2007/02/27 changes. 772 + improve CF_MBSTATE_T by including stdio.h, needed on Tru64 to make 773 the test-compile work. 774 + change makefile to install dialog.3 as part of install-lib rather 775 than install-man (report by Thomas Klausner). 776 + use $(INSTALL_SCRIPT) for installing dialog-config (report by 777 Santiago Vila). 778 7792007/02/27 - release 1.1 780 + mark as "dialog 1.1" 781 + add dialog-config script, which provides applications with compile- 782 and link-information for using the dialog library. 783 + move calls to dlg_trim_string() out of loop in dialog.c, so each 784 string is trimmed once (report by Ivanov Makcim). 785 + modify textbox.c to allow resizing while the search box is presented. 786 This relies on bug-fix in ncurses 5.6 20070224. 787 + use dgettext() rather than gettext() to allow libdialog to use the 788 messages installed for dialog (patch by Vajna Miklos). 789 + modify inputbox to position the cursor initially at the end of any 790 initial-text (request by Klaus Knopper). 791 + add configure --with-valgrind for testing. 792 + add --trace option, for debugging. 793 + add --ascii-lines and --no-lines options to control the way the 794 line-drawing characters are rendered (request by Klaus Knopper). 795 + add --keep-tite option, to override suppression of smcup/rmcup 796 (termcap ti/te) strings which would switch to xterm's alternate 797 screen (Debian #380665). 798 + modify fselect/dselect to use space-character as a completion 799 operator like tab in shells (patch by Yoram Bar Haim). 800 + remove a redundant chunk from checklist.c which reported status a 801 second time if the help-button was pressed but no item-help option 802 was in effect (Andre C Barros). 803 + fix return-status from "dialog --pause" (Debian #409254). 804 + add --mixedform and --mixedgauge dialogs based on patch from 805 Kiran Cherupally. 806 + add some notes on compatibility to the manpage. 807 + add editbox dialog (compatible with Xdialog, Debian #368478). 808 + add dselect dialog (compatible with Xdialog). 809 + remove an incorrect initialization of .text_flen from 2005/12/07 810 changes, which made all fields in a form editable (Debian #404045). 811 + report error and exit if a filename given for the --file option 812 cannot be opened (report by "Dog Walker"). 813 + make --program-prefix, etc., work in configure script, e.g., to make 814 program install as "cdialog". This does not alter the library name. 815 + add install-bin, install-man (and uninstall) rules to makefile. 816 + updates for configure script macros (originally vile, lynx, xterm): 817 AM_PATH_PROG_WITH_TEST, AM_WITH_NLS, CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, 818 CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_INCLUDE_DIRS, CF_LARGEFILE, CF_MAKEFLAGS, 819 CF_PATH_SYNTAX, CF_SUBDIR_PATH, CF_SUBST, CF_WITH_DBMALLOC, 820 CF_WITH_DMALLOC, CF_WITH_LIBTOOL and CF_XOPEN_SOURCE. 821 + update config.guess, config.sub 822 > adapted fixes from SuSE package (Werner Fink): 823 + add some limit-checks in dlg_draw_shadow(). 824 + make shadows resizable, using new dlg_move_window() in msgbox.c 825 and yesno.c 826 + add dialog_state.input, use this in end_dialog() to decide whether 827 to close pipe inputs and call _exit(), or simply call exit(). 828 + modify dlg_ctl_size() to check if the reason for failure is because 829 shadows were used; retry in that case without shadows. 830 + add signal catcher for SIGSEGV. 831 8322006/02/21 833 + fix logic in split-out dlg_menu() to separate inputmenu and menu 834 handling (report by Auke Kok). 835 8362006/01/26 837 + fix fselect.c to compile properly with Intel compiler and largefile 838 option. 839 + improve configure script checks for curses headers to work around 840 breakage in some packages, e.g., cygwin. 841 + amend correction to menubox, fixes normal menus (Debian #349969). 842 8432006/01/19 844 + completed dialog.3 manpage 845 + modify configure script option --with-gauge to cover all flavors of 846 the gauge (gauge, pause, progressbox). 847 + add progressbox widget, a hybrid of gauge and tailbox (Reznic Valery). 848 + fix a comparison in checklist.c to avoid unneeded arrows when the 849 list happens to fit in the window (patch by Peter Postma). 850 + correct wrapping computation in print_line() from 2005/11/07 changes 851 (report by Barry Kauler). 852 + update sv.po (comments only). 853 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 854 + correct logic that passes the callback for menubox to do inputmenu 855 operations from 2005/12/7 changes (report by Reznic Valery). 856 8572006/01/01 858 + add a null-pointer check in dlg_register_buttons(), needed for the 859 tailboxbg (Debian #345524). 860 + fix a few memory leaks reported by valgrind. 861 8622005/12/19 863 + correct return-values of new functions dlg_default_listitem() and 864 dlg_default_formitem() (Debian #344002). 865 + add Swedish translation (Debian #343303, by Daniel Nylander) 866 + begin function-summaries in dialog.3 867 + update config.guess, config.sub 868 8692005/12/07 870 + change license to LGPL. 871 + change naming convention in dlg_colors.h to make it easier to read, 872 and incidentally remove the last chunk of code preventing relicense. 873 + add --passwordform (request by Reznic Valery). 874 + modify pause.c, msgbox.c to work with --help-button. 875 + modify formbox.c, inputbox.c, textbox.c, yesno.c to work with extra 876 button (adapted from Reznic Valery patch). 877 + modify dlg_exit_label(), dlg_yes_labels() and dlg_ok_label() to allow 878 help-button (prompted by Reznic Valery patch). 879 + add zh_CN.po file from 880 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 881 + provide alternate interfaces for dialog_checklist(), dialog_menu() 882 and dialog_form(): dlg_checklist(), dlg_menu() and dlg_form() 883 (discussion with Michael Gebetsroither). 884 + add/use dlg_result_key() to allow binding function keys to the 885 buttons. 886 + implement user-definable key bindings in the rc-file. 887 + modify inline cases for KEY_xxx values to use binding tables in new 888 module dlg_keys.c 889 + add several DIALOG_STATE items to the rc file: aspect, 890 separate_widget, tab_len and visit_links 891 + add a tab-adjustment to dlg_print_text() to improve solution from 892 2005/10/30, e.g., in the samples/form* scripts. 893 + fix an off-by-one which made mouse-selection not work for menu items 894 past the first page (GenToo #112024, patch by Harald van Dijk). 895 8962005/11/07 897 + extend dlg_add_result() to allow caller to pass a null pointer 898 for dialog_vars.input_result (Debian #336986). 899 + correct length used for text portion of radio/checkboxes (report by 900 Valentin Stoykov). 901 + modify msgbox, textbox and center_label() to work properly for 902 LANG=bg_BG.utf8 examples by Valentin Stoykov. 903 + modify use of freopen() to work with opaque FILE type on DragonFly 904 (report by Jeremy C Reed). 905 + modify print_line() to compute columns, use that for the call to 906 dlg_print_line(). Fix a few places where strlen() was used instead 907 of dlg_count_columns() (reports by Valentin Stoykov). 908 9092005/10/30 910 + reviewed changes since beginning development in 1999, decided that 911 there are no appreciable portions of original code remaining. 912 Marked sources to correspond. 913 + improve cache performance for inputstr.c using tsearch() rather than 914 a linked-list search (Debian #294853). 915 + remove a special case for darwin in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE configure macro. 916 + add ms.po file from 917 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 918 + remove an assignment that caused the cursor to appear initially on a 919 form field rather than button (Debian #333506). 920 + modify buttons.c to count columns rather than bytes, fixing case 921 where buttons were laid out incorrectly (report by Valentin Stoykov). 922 + change dlg_print_text() to count columns rather than bytes, fixing 923 case where fewer columns were displayed in menu than expected 924 (report by Valentin Stoykov). 925 9262005/10/05 927 + improve fix for dlg_does_output(), eliminating redundant leading 928 separator. 929 + fill background color for item-help text (report by Peter Postma). 930 + correct interaction between --separate-output and --output-separator 931 broken in 2005/09/11 fix for Debian #326918 (Debian #331440). 932 + update config.guess, config.sub 933 9342005/09/11 935 + undo doubled adjustment for left/right margins when wrapping text 936 for msgbox, gauge and pause (report by Xyba). 937 + correct position of scrolled text in formbox broken by 2004/12/19 938 changes (report by Konrad Jelen). 939 + call dlg_does_output() from dlg_add_result(), ensuring that 940 separators are used when combining widgets such as formbox (report by 941 John Suykerbuyk). 942 + fix marker in textbox.c to make it disappear at the top of the file 943 (report by Patrick J. Volkerding). 944 + fix marker shown in arrows.c for checklists, etc., which was "(+)" 945 where it should have been "(-)" (report/patch by Patrick J. 946 Volkerding). 947 + fix --input-fd (changes in glibc since 2003 made dialog hang on exit 948 due to the way dialog updated stdin). 949 + restore default value (a tab) for --separator or --separate-widget 950 lost in 2003/11/26 changes (Debian #326918). 951 + make several widgets handle SIGWINCH (calendar, checklist, formbox, 952 fselect, inputbox, menubox, pause, tailbox, textbox, timebox). Only 953 msgbox and yesno had been done before. Note that some still have 954 fixed geometry requirements, so they cannot be shrunk below a given 955 threshold. Also, these changes do not address traversal, e.g., for 956 tailboxbg. 957 + make gauge widget handle SIGWINCH with ncurses (Debian #305705). 958 + add configure option to control whether largefile support is 959 compiled-in (Debian #298882). 960 + update eu.po (Debian #312622, patch by Piarres Egana). 961 + add/update po files from 962 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 963 fi.po, rw.po, sr.po, tr.po, zh_TW.po 964 + fixes for configure script: 965 + improve script for determining gcc version 966 + improve checks for Intel compiler and related warning options 967 + improve checks for defining _XOPEN_SOURCE (or alternatives) and 968 _POSIX_C_SOURCE 969 + update config.guess, config.sub 970 9712005/03/06 972 + add/update po files from 973 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 974 ga.po, it.po 975 + revert last change for da.po; it was from an older version (report by 976 Morten Brix Pedersen). 977 9782005/02/06 979 + modify makefile.in so --disable-echo applies to libtool builds. 980 + corrected malloc size used for editable fields in formbox widget to 981 match the function which updates the corresponding buffer. 982 + modify formbox widget's use of flen to allow negative values to be 983 used to limit the length of the displayed field. 984 + improve description in manpage of output from formbox widget 985 (Debian #292418). 986 + modify formbox widget to allow fields with flen==0 to display 987 (Debian #292417). 988 + improved configure macros CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE and CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, to 989 avoid redefinition warnings on cygwin. 990 + fix a typo in inputmenu-stdout found via "sh -n" (report by Steve 991 Grubb). 992 + add/update po files from 993 http://www.iro.umontreal.ca/translation/maint/dialog/ 994 ca.po, da.po, hu.po, nl.po, rm.po, ro.po, vi.po 995 9962005/01/16 997 + add --args option to help with debugging scripts. 998 + adapted some new po files from Debian package for whiptail: ar.po, 999 bg.po, gl.po, hi.po, hr.po, mg.po, mk.po, ro.po, sq.po and zh_TW.po 1000 + update da.po (Morten Brix Pedersen). 1001 + add configure check for Intel 8.0 compiler, to set appropriate 1002 warning options. 1003 + update config.guess, config.sub 1004 10052004/12/22 1006 + correct a typo in 2004/12/19 changes which caused width of multibyte 1007 characters to be incorrectly computed in some locales. 1008 + modify --version and --help options to write consistently to the 1009 standard output (report by Santiago Vila). 1010 + modify tailboxbg by resetting tty modes at the point where it forks a 1011 process to update the screen, rather than waiting until that process 1012 exits. This improves user feedback by making it apparent that dialog 1013 is no longer processing input after that point (Redhat #142538). 1014 + minor updates to some .po files using Babel Fish, comparing with lynx. 1015 + update es.po (Santiago Vila). 1016 + work around bug in NetBSD 1.6 curses which seems to be confused by 1017 reusing color pairs with different video attributes. The problem 1018 does not appear in NetBSD 2.0 curses (but its headers do not provide 1019 version info, so color-caching is not available for that 1020 configuration). 1021 + modify pause and gauge widgets to ensure that reverse-video progress 1022 bar is visible when the background is reversed, e.g., using the 1023 default non-color attributes. 1024 + use chtype rather than attr_t, to build with old Solaris curses, 1025 used in save/restore operation from 2004/09/20. 1026 10272004/12/19 1028 + add pause-widget (patch by Yura Kalinichenko). 1029 + modify exit-code returned on selecting the "Help"-button when the 1030 --item-help option is given. Previously this returned the same code 1031 as "OK", since it combines output for "OK" with the help status. It 1032 now returns the help-code, but this can be overridden by setting the 1033 environment variable $DIALOG_ITEM_HELP (reports by Erika Pacholleck 1034 and Sebastian Muesch). 1035 + modify formbox widget so input-length is not limited to field-length 1036 (report by David Liebermann). 1037 + localize the label on the search box for textbox widget (report by 1038 Erika Pacholleck). 1039 + correct usage message detail for fselect, which listed an extra 1040 parameter (Debian #284008). 1041 + add include for <sys/select.h> in ui_getc.c to build with QNX 4.25 1042 using Watcom 10.6 (patch by Len Meakin). 1043 + modify behavior when no locale (or POSIX locale) is set to allow 1044 legacy interpretation of Latin-1 character set (Debian #284795). 1045 10462004/11/18 1047 + correct computation of column width for menubox/checkbox tags, for 1048 multicolumn characters, e.g., the menubox-utf8 example. 1049 + correct calls to wbkgdset(), which set the background attribute but 1050 not the corresponding character (ncurses uses blank if none is given). 1051 + improve configure script check for _XOPEN_SOURCE and _POSIX_C_SOURCE. 1052 + improved limit-computation in show_message() to allow for scrolling 1053 very long messages. 1054 + adjust scrolling logic in msgbox to account for the one-line offset 1055 used by the logic which wraps text in a box, thus avoiding leaving 1056 an extra blank line (report by Maxim Sobolev). 1057 10582004/09/20 1059 + add samples/whiptail.rc 1060 + add samples/dialog.py (noting that a later version of this exists 1061 as pythondialog, but this is relatively self-contained). Modified 1062 the script to accept the $DIALOG environment variable like the other 1063 sample scripts, to specify the path of the program to use. 1064 + modify the install rule for header-files so the autoconf names in 1065 dlg_config.h (and corresponding usage in dialog.h, etc), are altered 1066 from "HAVE_xxx" to "DLG_HAVE_xxx", etc. 1067 + add a check for getenv("HOME") in rc.c 1068 + add a call to end_dialog() in signal_handler for tailboxbg (from 1069 patch by Werner Fink). 1070 + correct initialization in checklist and radiobox for --default-item, 1071 scrolling as needed. 1072 + modify --visit-items option so that it puts the cursor initially on 1073 the list (in menubox, checklist and radiobox), accepts abbreviations 1074 for the buttons when the cursor is on the button-row, and otherwise 1075 (when --visit-items is given) abbreviations apply only to the list 1076 (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1077 + modify a few widgets (inputbox, textbox, yesno) to beep on unexpected 1078 input. 1079 + modify some msgbox widget to accept abbreviations of its button 1080 label, for consistency with other widgets (request by Erika 1081 Pacholleck). 1082 + corrected logic of dlg_char_to_button(), making it check only the 1083 first uppercase letter in each button label rather than all uppercase 1084 letters (report by Erika Pacholleck, cf: 2003/09/10). 1085 + improved description of --clear and --keep-window options (adapted 1086 from Erika Pacholleck). 1087 + move discussion of --beep and --beep-signal options to Obsolete 1088 Options section of manpage, remove these from the help-message 1089 (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1090 + bracket extern's in dialog.h with C++ extern "C" declaration, in case 1091 the library is used from a C++ application. 1092 + modify inputmenu examples to allow ESC to cancel the script. 1093 + modify inputmenu widget to cancel edit on a TAB or ESC. 1094 + modify inputmenu widget to use the same color scheme for the editable 1095 text as the inputbox widget. 1096 + modify samples/killall to work around differences in "cut" versions. 1097 + use the color-caching from the \Z logic when loading the ".rc" file, 1098 thereby reducing the number of color pairs required, and making it 1099 less likely that deriving color pairs for drawing arrows on a given 1100 background will run out of colors. 1101 + save/restore window attributes in dlg_draw_arrows() and similar 1102 functions, to allow widgets to draw arrows using the widget's 1103 background rather than a common/fixed value (request by Erika 1104 Pacholleck). 1105 + modify textbox widget so the down-arrow will be hidden when at the 1106 end of the file. (Modifying the up-arrow to be hidden is harder - 1107 will do this when implementing scrollbars). 1108 + correct off-by-one in fselect.c which left down-arrows showing at 1109 the bottom of directory- and file-lists (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1110 + improve display of percentages by omitting blanks where lines should 1111 be shown. 1112 + modify logic for \Z escapes to make those that set video attributes 1113 not clear the colors (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1114 + modify logic for \Z escapes to allow foreground and background 1115 colors to be the same, provided that bold attribute is set. 1116 Also improved the logic for choosing a background color when the 1117 foreground and background are the same (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1118 + updated configure script macro CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, ensuring that the 1119 _POSIX_C_SOURCE value is defined with a specific value (bug report 1120 originally for lynx). 1121 + fix configure script so that po/makefile is generated properly when 1122 the configure --srcdir --enable-nls options are used. 1123 + modify makefile.in to allow build/install from another directory, 1124 i.e., using configure --srcdir (patch by Mike Castle). 1125 + updated da.po (Debian #262587, Morten Brix Pedersen). 1126 + modify some sample scripts to avoid using grave quotes nested within 1127 double quotes with multiple file redirection, which does not work 1128 with Solaris /bin/sh (report/analysis by Eric Haller). 1129 + check for end of string immediately after a \Z escape to avoid 1130 displaying the null terminator as a ^@ (report by Erika Pacholleck). 1131 > patches by Erika Pacholleck: 1132 + modify calendar.c, fselect.c and timebox.c to use color scheme like 1133 other lists, using menubox colors rather than dialog colors. 1134 + correct charset for po/de.po, translate messages for "Help" and 1135 "Rename". 1136 + omit parentheses around percentage in textbox.c 1137 + correct a few mismatched attributes, e.g., searchbox_attr in textbox.c, 1138 percentage in msgbox.c, 1139 1140 11412004/07/31 1142 + add test scripts to cover zero-width column case. 1143 + remove limit checks from checklist.c and menubox.c (cf: 2004/07/28), 1144 since some scripts use zero-width columns (Debian #262411 and report 1145 by Kyle Sallee). 1146 11472004/07/29 1148 + modify msgbox.c to only reserve space for percentage shown as part 1149 of scrollable text for the msgbox widget. This makes infobox look 1150 as it did before 2004/06/06 changes (report by Vinesh Christopher) 1151 11522004/07/28 1153 + remove redundant calls to wtimeout() from widgets since wtimeout() 1154 is properly called from ui_getc() where it is controlled by the 1155 --timeout option (bug report by juanjo). 1156 + add limit checks in checklist.c and menubox.c for very narrow screens 1157 (prompted by Steve Grubb patch). 1158 + initialize step in dlg_draw_buttons() in case it is used to draw 1159 a vertical list of buttons (prompted by Steve Grubb patch). 1160 > fixes by Steve Grubb: 1161 + correct logic in checklist.c (cf: 2003/11/26 changes) which turned 1162 quoting on unnecessarily for radiobox, breaking some old scripts. 1163 + increase size of array in dlg_ok_labels() to avoid overrun if extra 1164 and help buttons are used (cf: 2002/06/12 changes). 1165 + initialize fkey variable in menubox.c and textbox.c (cf: 2003/07/12). 1166 11672004/07/21 - release 1.0 1168 + minor updates for configure script, i.e., CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, 1169 CF_NCURSES_LIBS macros. 1170 + update config.guess, config.sub 1171 + add nl.po (Jacques Weewer). 1172 11732004/06/06 1174 + add --visit-items option, which allows the user to tab to the item 1175 list in the checklist/radiobox and menubox widgets (request by 1176 Ari Moisio). 1177 + use wide-character line-drawing for up/down arrows when configured 1178 for wide-characters, gives better results with uxterm. 1179 + limit the number of times a --file option can be used, to prevent 1180 runaway recursion if a --file option is embedded within a file which 1181 is included. 1182 + improve discussion of wrapping in the manpage (Debian #251937). 1183 + modify msgbox to allow it to scroll vertically like textbox (Debian 1184 #233276). This only works with ncurses. 1185 + implement $DIALOGVARS environment variable to apply common options to 1186 dialog_vars when it is reset before processing other common options. 1187 + add --single-quoted option to control whether output is double-quoted 1188 with '"' or single-quoted with single-quotes. 1189 + revert the default quoting behavior of checklists to use 1190 double-quotes (report by Mark K Post regarding Slackware scripts). 1191 + add eu.po (Basque) (Piarres Beobide Egaa). 1192 + add ca.po (Catalan) (Jordi Mallach). 1193 11942004/04/21 1195 + add a call to flushinp() to init_dialog(), to discard any typeahead 1196 before dialog is invoked (Debian #244746). 1197 + correct dlg_match_char() function, which was broken during rewrite 1198 to support wide-characters (Debian #244777). 1199 + improved ru.po, uses UTF-8 charset (Leonid Kanter, Redhat #119200). 1200 + correct position of shadow drawn for dialogs, which appeared to work 1201 for most versions of curses (other than NetBSD) but would have been 1202 visible for certain color schemes (discussion with Julian Coleman). 1203 + correct loop-exit in longest_word() (Tomas Heredia, forwarded by 1204 Santiago Vila). 1205 + add cy.po (Welsh) (Dafydd Harries). 1206 12072004/03/16 1208 + modify quoting of results to use single-quote rather than double 1209 quote, and ensure that results containing a quote or backslash 1210 character are escaped (report by Florent Rougon) 1211 + remove an incorrect comparison from checklist which made cursor 1212 stick on the last line, from 2004/03/01 changes. 1213 12142004/03/14 1215 + add a dependency to install library if "--with-libtool" is used. 1216 + add manpage for the library. 1217 + add "--file" 1218 + modify formbox.c to support "--help-status" like menubox. 1219 + modify checklist.c to add item name to the "HELP" string when 1220 "--help-button" is used and no --item-help option is given (Debian 1221 #236841, report/patch by Jorg Sommer). 1222 + rename colors.h to dlg_colors.h, install that when the library is 1223 installed. 1224 + add copyright notice to usage ("--help") message. 1225 + correct a missing bounds check for mouse-clicks in menubox (prompted 1226 by Debian #233044). 1227 + updated several configure-script macros: AM_GNU_GETTEXT, 1228 AM_WITH_NLS, CF_OUR_MESSAGES, CF_PROG_EXT, CF_WITH_DBMALLOC, 1229 CF_WITH_DMALLOC, CF_WITH_LIBTOOL, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE. 1230 12312004/03/01 1232 + improve layout of calendar widget to allow for very long button 1233 labels (report by Santiago Vila). 1234 + correct logic for $DIALOG_TTY, broken in 2003/11/30. The environment 1235 variable must evaluate to a nonzero integer (report by Florent 1236 Rougon). 1237 + document interaction between "--default-no" and "--no-cancel" options 1238 in manpage (Debian #223488). 1239 + change configure script to use autoconf 2.52+patch, to work around 1240 issues with Estonian locale (report by Seemant Kulleen). 1241 + add uk.po (Ukrainian) (Debian #232441). 1242 + make --default-item apply to checklist widget (Debian #225255). 1243 + correct a missing check for --item-help when --help-status was given 1244 for checklist (Debian #232921). 1245 + correct a missing bounds check for mouse-clicks in checklist (Debian 1246 #233044). 1247 + update config.guess, config.sub 1248 12492003/12/07 1250 + correct infinite loop in yesno widget when "--defaultno" option is 1251 combined with "--no-cancel" (Debian #223077). 1252 12532003/11/30 1254 + suppress double-quotes added for "--help-status" option if the 1255 string does not contain any special characters. 1256 12572003/11/26 1258 + add samples/sourcemage.rc, for comparison with slackware.rc 1259 + add "--insecure" option (request by Sean Mathews (DrWho@f34r.com)). 1260 + make "--defaultno" option apply to widgets which use OK/Cancel 1261 buttons as well (Debian #209030). 1262 + improve documentation of exit-codes for each widget in the manpage 1263 (Debian #217926). 1264 + add option "--keep-window" to suppress repainting after completing 1265 each widget (request by Ingo van Lil). 1266 + add options "--yes-label" and "--no-label" to allow override of the 1267 "Yes" and "No" strings (request by Christoph Zwerschke). 1268 + add option "--help-status" to allow script to restore a checklist 1269 or radiolist after processing an item-help string (Debian #209031). 1270 + modify width-calculation for non-formatted text to ensure it is 1271 wide enough for the longest word in the text (patch by Andrew Gaul). 1272 + modify dlg_index_columns() to count a newline as a single cell rather 1273 than 2 for the normal curses case. This fixes an off-by-one for 1274 the text-justification, shown in screen 2 of msgbox1 sample script. 1275 + fix dlg_char_to_button(); 2003/09/10 changes made it incorrectly 1276 ignore case of the labels. 1277 + change calendar's use of arrow keys so they are (as before 2002/06/22) 1278 interpreted within the day-grid as movement within that grid (request 1279 by David Anders). 1280 + correct missing initialization of last_getc variable in dlg_getc() 1281 (report/analysis by Victor Wodecki). 1282 + modify main program to make 1283 dialog --no-shadow --print-maxsize 1284 work. Normally dialog prints the screen size after subtracting the 1285 area reserved for shadows, but some applications may need the actual 1286 screen size (Debian #213424). 1287 + several related changes (Debian #213425): 1288 + separate the examples using "--stdout" and "--output-fd" from the 1289 normal usage examples. 1290 + add "--input-fd" option, provide a sample of its use. 1291 + modify init_dialog() to use initscr() unless a "--stdout" option 1292 was used. Some scripts relied on the coincidence that redirecting 1293 standard output from dialog would "work". Before this change 1294 init_dialog() assumed that redirected standard output was 1295 synonymous with "--stdout" option (not the intended behavior). 1296 + modify command-line parsing to look for "--stdout" and "--stderr" 1297 options first, allowing only one. 1298 + add a check for an environment variable $DIALOG_TTY which provides 1299 the older behavior, i.e., try to open the terminal directly if 1300 stdout is redirected. 1301 + interface changes, to make libdialog simpler to use: 1302 + rename all of the internal functions to begin with "dlg_", but 1303 provide compatibility with older names if the application defines 1304 __DIALOG_OLD_NAMES__. 1305 + add dialog_version() function, and corresponding DIALOG_VERSION and 1306 DIALOG_PATCHDATE definitions to dlg_config.h 1307 + eliminate remaining global variables such as screen_initialized in 1308 favor of dialog_state and dialog_vars. 1309 + move some data such as dialog_vars.output to dialog_state, since 1310 they are normally not reset between widgets. 1311 + change interfaces of dialog_yesno() and dialog_checklist() to use 1312 dialog_state.defaultno and dialog_vars.separate_output, making it 1313 simpler and more consistent. 1314 + improve configure script and related definitions: 1315 + add "--with-libtool" option to provide shared library support by 1316 libtool. 1317 + rename generated "config.h" to "dlg_config.h", so it can be 1318 installed without naming conflict. Added "dlg_config.h" to 1319 install-lib rule. 1320 + modify configure script and makefile to use EXEEXT and OBJEXT. 1321 + add "--enable-widec" option to control whether wide-curses features 1322 are compiled-in, rather than check for the existence of those in 1323 the curses library. This allows building with HPUX curses, which 1324 has abandoned legacy features while not quite supporting X/Open 1325 curses. 1326 + add configure check for getbegx(), etc., which are not provided on 1327 all platforms. 1328 + update config.guess, config.sub 1329 13302003/10/02 1331 + update hu.po (Arpad Biro). 1332 + revert part of the 2003/08/18 change to "--stdout" option. Using 1333 stderr for screen output does not work well on several platforms 1334 since stdout's settings are affected (report by Kent Robotti). 1335 13362003/09/24 1337 + modify tailbox to allow it to display files with arbitrarily long 1338 lines. 1339 + fix an infinite loop in tailbox, broken when making interface changes 1340 to dlg_getc() (report by Ingo van Lil). 1341 + amend fix for "--and-widget" to not treat "---" as an option (report 1342 by Kent Robotti). 1343 + updated es.po (Santiago Vila). 1344 13452003/09/10 1346 + correct "RENAMED" result from inputmenu widget, which did not reset 1347 the result buffer, and did not account for scroll-offset (Debian 1348 #209336). 1349 + modify button, menu and checklist logic that matches a character to 1350 the beginning of a text field to support wide-characters (completes 1351 Debian #195674). 1352 + modify configure script to not use "head -1". 1353 13542003/08/30 1355 + modify searchbox popup in textbox widget so one can simply press 1356 return on an empty input to cancel the popup. 1357 + modify error reporting to avoid clearing screen if a problem is 1358 found in the ".rc" file. 1359 + add color/attribute combinations for form widget (based on patch by 1360 Reznic Valery). 1361 + combine rc-file colors, attribute- and color-tables to obtain a 1362 single table for color values, which requires less work to add new 1363 entries. 1364 + modify fselect widget to make back-tab work again, since it was 1365 broken by the rewrite of dlg_edit_string(). 1366 + modify howmany_tags() so it will quit searching when it finds any 1367 option, not only "--and-widget" (Debian #206636). 1368 + correct call to dlg_print_text() in print_line(), which did not 1369 account for hidden characters (report/patch by David Poole). 1370 + modify print_button() to display properly if locale defines ok/cancel 1371 or yes/no buttons that contain multibyte characters. 1372 13732003/08/20 1374 + correct an indexing error when deleting from the end of a line using 1375 KEY_DC; it happened to work on Linux because malloc() clears memory 1376 like calloc(). 1377 + add '\r' to case statement where '\n' is translated to KEY_ENTER to 1378 work around defect in NetBSD curses. 1379 + modify configure check for getparyx(), etc., which are implemented 1380 by NetBSD curses as functions rather than macros. 1381 + correct configure check for term.h, which may be <ncursesw/term.h> 1382 if ncursesw development headers are installed, but not ncurses 1383 development headers. Or they may not coincide (Debian #206287). 1384 13852003/08/18 1386 + modify checklist.c and menubox.c to display tags properly if they 1387 contain wide-characters. 1388 + better solution for initializing curses when "--stdout" option is 1389 used, e.g., use stderr for the output if it is a tty. Also correct 1390 the error handling, so dialog exits with an error if it cannot 1391 find a way to do output (Debian #205509). 1392 + modify sample scripts to use consistent definition of $DIALOG 1393 (Debian #205508). 1394 + add UTF-8 examples inputbox6-utf8, inputbox6-utf8 (from Tomohiro 1395 Kubota, Debian #195674). 1396 + modify print_line() to work with wide-characters, e.g., so it handles 1397 wrapping for double-width characters. 1398 + cache results from multibyte character indices, speeds up cursor 1399 movement. 1400 + modify form widget to support scrolling and mouse-selection. 1401 + add form widget (based on patch by Reznic Valery). 1402 + correct mouse-handling for inputmenu widget. 1403 + corrections to menu.c: location of clearing operation, and height of 1404 rows in code for older ncurses versions (patch by Reznic Valery). 1405 + improve logic that compensates for xterm's alternate-screen by 1406 cancelling the rmcup/smcup strings after the rmcup has been issued. 1407 That ensures that dialog will not clear the screen on exit (report 1408 by Javier Kohen). 1409 + modify initialization between widgets to retain the values for the 1410 --aspect, --separate-widget and --tab-len options. 1411 + add --separator as an alias for --separate-widget (compatible with 1412 Xdialog). 1413 + correct handling of Xdialog's --icon and --wmclass options, whose 1414 parameter was not ignored. 1415 + correct logic for --separate-widget so its string is written before 1416 each output, rather than only for --and-widget option (report by 1417 Javier Kohen). 1418 + improve limit-check in center_label() for buttons.c (report by Tor 1419 Vidar Havstad). 1420 + correct layout of --menu widget, which reduced display width due to 1421 logic for --inputmenu being applied whether or not that configuration 1422 was used (reports by Javier Kohen, Dimitar Zhekov and MAL 1423 <mal@komcept.com>). Fixes Debian #201215. 1424 + modify gauge widget to support --begin option (Hans-Joachim Baader). 1425 + updated pl.po (Jaroslaw Swierczynski). 1426 + hide cursor while painting gauge. 1427 + add auto-sizing logic to gauge widget (reports by Javier Kohen and 1428 Robert Schubert). 1429 14302003/07/20 1431 + rewrote inputstr.c, allowing it to enter and display wide-characters. 1432 Some nonprinting characters such as control/B can be edited as well. 1433 + modify timebox to allow user to type numbers into the fields. 1434 + change interfaces of dlg_getc(), mouse_wgetch(), etc., to add 1435 parameter that returns whether the result is really a function-key. 1436 This is needed to work with wide-character curses. 1437 + correct computation of week-number in calendar widget (report by 1438 Heiner Lamann). 1439 + updated configure script macros: 1440 + suppress -Winline with gcc 3.3, since it is broken. 1441 + fix caching bug in CF_UTF8_LIB 1442 + improved script for CF_BUNDLED_INTL. 1443 + update config.guess, config.sub 1444 14452003/03/08 1446 + add null-pointer checks to some malloc calls which were overlooked. 1447 + correct logic in dlg_add_result(), which did not copy content of 1448 non-allocated buffer to the first allocation (report by Daniel 1449 Dupont). 1450 14512003/03/02 1452 + correct an uninitialized value in dlg_add_result() (Debian #182683). 1453 14542003/01/30 1455 + corrected print_line(), which subtracted the margin twice from the 1456 right-limit, making a string wrap unnecessarily (Debian #168823). 1457 + correct initial limit-check for arrows in checklist.c, which used 1458 the wrong variable, showing the bottom arrow when it should not 1459 (Debian #168823). 1460 + modify driver to always call show_result(), to simplify updates. 1461 + fix several memory leaks, important if dialog is run with a large 1462 number of widgets (report by albert.veli@telia.com forwarded by 1463 Santiago Vila). 1464 + check if the screen output is actually to the terminal before trying 1465 to suppress xterm's alternate screen mode (see 2000/01/18) (report by 1466 David Oliveira). 1467 + use dialog_vars.input_result consistently to return the text which is 1468 printed after a widget completes. In many cases, dialog now 1469 allocates enough space to hold the text, rather than use a fixed 1470 buffer. The checklist widget was writing directly to the output to 1471 avoid limits of the fixed buffer. 1472 + modify dialog.c to also write dialog_vars.input_result if the 1473 Help-button was pressed (request by Amon Ott). 1474 + add hu.po (Arpad Biro). 1475 + update fr.po, pt.po, pt_BR.po to add strings for "Help" button (patch 1476 by Frederic L W Meunier). 1477 + fix off-by-one error in menu.c, checklist.c (reported by 1478 Tomasz Wasiak 2002/09/15 and others: 1479 Andrew Gaul 2002/11/12, 1480 Tobias C Rittweiler 2002/11/19, 1481 Arpad Biro 2003/01/21). 1482 + updated configure script, improving checks for ncurses in various 1483 locations, updated NLS script to match lynx. Added --with-curses-dir 1484 option. 1485 > Tobias C Rittweiler: 1486 + make ifdef in mousewget.c consistent with usage in dialog.h 1487 + use beep() rather than flash() in dlg_edit_string(), for consistency 1488 with the other functions. 1489 + change order of buttons so extra button falls between Ok/Cancel. 1490 + fix so "dialog --print-maxsize" exits from curses. 1491 + add --inputmenu option. 1492 14932002/08/14 1494 + modify checklist.c and menubox.c to treat the extra button like the 1495 "Ok" button by making dialog print the chosen items (request by 1496 Tobias C Rittweiler). 1497 + add examples checklist6 and menubox6 to illustrate the --colors 1498 option. 1499 + implement -colors option, which allows one to highlight words in the 1500 titles and most text areas with color or video attributes (adapted 1501 from patch by Tobias C Rittweiler). 1502 + add examples inputbox4, inputbox5 to illustrate how to use the 1503 --output-fd option, and how to use dialog without any temporary 1504 file at all. 1505 + add --output-fd option (Debian #153984). 1506 + documented vi-style keys for calendar, textbox widgets in manpage. 1507 15082002/06/22 1509 + improve mouse handling, e.g., for up/down scrolling in calendar, 1510 checklist, etc. 1511 + add --extra-button and --extra-label options (adapted from patch 1512 by Tobias C Rittweiler). 1513 + correct displayed cursor position in inputbox when returning to the 1514 input area after traversing the buttons with tabs, etc. 1515 + add left/right arrows for traversal in calendar and timebox dialogs. 1516 + implement two new functions dlg_next_ok_buttonindex() and 1517 dlg_prev_ok_buttonindex(), using these to hide details about the 1518 traversal over buttons in several widgets. 1519 + modify checklist.c and menubox.c to verify if both --help-button and 1520 --item-help are specified before assuming that selecting the help 1521 button should cause the "HELP {item-help}" message to be printed 1522 (reported by Marcel Ritter). 1523 + modify init_dialog() to work around HP's broken tty driver (report by 1524 John Mudd). Specifically, the problem is that when opening /dev/tty 1525 directly (to support the --stdout option), the terminal does not 1526 change to raw mode. The workaround opens /dev/tty only as needed; 1527 the --stdout option does not work on HPUX but otherwise dialog works. 1528 + updated el.po (patch by kromJx <kromJx@crosswinds.net>). 1529 15302002/05/19 - release 0.9b 1531 + add --no-collapse option to allow one to retain tabs and repeated 1532 blanks in a message box (request by Roberto Simoni). 1533 + use DLG_EXIT_ESC constant rather than -1's in several places. This 1534 has the effect of changing some exit-with-error cases to denote that 1535 the exit was because ESC was pressed (patch by Diego Alvarez, 1536 forward by Santiago Vila). 1537 + bump package version to 0.9b (with patch-date, as usual). 1538 + add --exit-label option (request by Roberto Simoni). 1539 + updated de.po to correct translation for "Cancel" (from Michael 1540 Piefel, Debian #146402). 1541 + use definitions from autoconf macro AC_HEADER_TIME to ensure that 1542 time() is properly prototyped. 1543 + update pl.po, adding translation for "Help" (patch by Jaroslaw 1544 Swierczynski <swiergot@hacking.pl>). 1545 + update COPYING file, to reflect address change of FSF (reported by 1546 Santiago Vila). 1547 + update some configuration script macros: CF_CHECK_CACHE, 1548 CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, CF_HEADER_PATH and CF_MAKEFLAGS. 1549 + correct misuse of "$with_XXX" variables in the configure script, 1550 which prevented configuration against curses library as opposed to 1551 ncurses. 1552 + update config.guess, config.sub 1553 15542002/03/09 (a) 1555 + modify geometry of samples/fselect scripts to allow them to run in 1556 a 24x80 screen (report/patch by Santiago Vila). 1557 + correct exit-code for menubox.c when Cancel is pressed. This was 1558 unintentionally altered when adding --help-button (reported by 1559 Patrick J Volkerding) 1560 15612002/03/09 1562 + add --timeout option, which forces the program to exit with an error 1563 if no user response is given within the specified number of seconds 1564 (request by <andrew@argoncorp.com>). 1565 + modify calendar widget to allow day/month/year values to default to 1566 the current date (request by <Ron.Perrella@bellsouth.com>). 1567 + modify display of buttons in checklist.c and menubox.c to handle the 1568 case where the button label is empty (Debian #134388). 1569 + extended logic for ok/cancel/help to make this work with checklist 1570 widget. 1571 + revert pt_BT.po, apply changes to pt.po (report by Frederic L W 1572 Meunier). 1573 > several changes from Stanislav Ievlev: 1574 + add options --help-button and --help-label to make menubox display a 1575 third button which can be used to return an exit code causing the 1576 calling script to show extended help information. 1577 + use home/end keys in input string-editing, e.g., inputbox. 1578 + add option --max-input to limit length of string returned by inputbox 1579 and other widgets which allow the user to edit a string. 1580 15812001/12/02 1582 + add --ok-label and --cancel-label options (request by Kyle Sallee). 1583 + correct usage message for --fselect option (reported by Patrick J 1584 Volkerding). 1585 + add samples/debian.rc, for comparison with slackware.rc 1586 + corrected samples/slackware.rc, which was just the compiled-in 1587 default values (patch by Patrick J Volkerding). 1588 + modify search rule for rc-file to add a global rc file /etc/dialogrc 1589 (patch by Patrick J Volkerding). 1590 + updated pt_BR.po with modified entries for fselect.c (Frederic L W 1591 Meunier). 1592 + add pl.po (Swiergot <swiergot@l02.ids.czest.pl>). 1593 15942001/11/11 1595 + modify command-line parsing to allow a "--" argument to act as an 1596 escape, so the next argument is not recognized as an option if it 1597 begins with "--". This is apparently one of popt's undocumented 1598 features, upon which some Debian scripts depend (Debian #116642). 1599 + add da.po (Morten Brix Pedersen <morten@wtf.dk>). 1600 + add an install-strip rule to makefile, changing the normal install 1601 rule to not strip the installed executable (based on discussion with 1602 Santiago Vila). 1603 + initialize my_output variable if user cannot open /dev/tty, e.g., if 1604 su'd to another user (patch by Richard Braakman (<dark@ssh.com>), Debian 1605 #117177). 1606 + add configure option --with-ncursesw, to allow configure/build with 1607 wide-character version of ncurses. 1608 16092001/10/14 1610 + add option --ignore, to make dialog be ignore options that it does 1611 not recognize. 1612 + add option --trim, to trim literal newlines and repeated spaces from 1613 text that will be displayed. Add samples/msgbox2, which is the 1614 same as msgbox1, but using --trim (cf: change for Debian #102942). 1615 + minor correction to attributes for buttons.c to use active_attr on 1616 the right-side of a button. 1617 + add a sample dialog rc-file slackware.rc based on diffs in hdasetup 1618 package at 1619 http://ftp1.sourceforge.net/pub/mirrors/slackware/slackware/source/a/hdsetup/ 1620 (discussion with Frederic L W Meunier). 1621 + modify dialog.pl to avoid using a statically-named tempfile, allowing 1622 multiple processes to use this script (patch by James Ranson 1623 (<euclid80@yahoo.com>), Debian #110609). 1624 + correct fprintf() call in j_menu() function, i.e., "--menu" option, 1625 which did not guard against expanding '%' embedded in the parameters 1626 (Stavros Chatzistefanidis <sxatz@yahoo.com>). 1627 + add et.po (Ivar Smolin <okul@trenet.ee>). 1628 + update fr.po (Frederic L W Meunier). 1629 + modify to allow scripts to alter the exit codes, mainly to 1630 distinguish ESC and ERROR exits. This is done by setting a shell 1631 variable such as DIALOG_ESC to a new value (request by Petr Vandrovec 1632 (<vandrove@vc.cvut.cz>), Debian #99264) 1633 16342001/08/27 1635 + use VPATH in makefile to support build with configure --srcdir, if 1636 the make program supports that. Note that samples/install/makefile 1637 is not generated, due to awkward limitation of autoconf script 1638 (reported by Frederic L W Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>). 1639 + add po/pt_BR.po (Frederic L W Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>). 1640 + correct sense of --enable/--disable shown in configure --help (report 1641 by Frederic L W Meunier <0@pervalidus.net>). 1642 + correct logic for --clear option, broken in 2000/07/02 (fixes Debian 1643 #110254). 1644 16452001/08/11 1646 + porting fixes to work on AIX: flush output to work around bug in 1647 curses library, use ./killall in scripts to avoid conflict with 1648 AIX program by that name. 1649 + modify dlg_trim_string() to retain literal newlines if the string 1650 does not contain "\\n" strings, and to retain leading blanks on the 1651 resulting lines, for compatibility with older scripts (Debian 1652 #102942). 1653 + add charset specification to cs.po 1654 + change dates in CHANGES to consistent format, add el.po for Greek 1655 (patch by kromJx <kromJx@crosswinds.net>). 1656 + eliminate static globals (bss, data) from modules rc, tailbox, 1657 textbox using better parameter-passing convention, and const. 1658 + cleanup temporary files in a few of the sample scripts. 1659 + rewrote tailboxbg using select() rather than fork(), thereby 1660 eliminating lock-files. Only one process should be trying to display 1661 on the screen at any given time. 1662 + add error check to ensure that numeric parameters are really numbers. 1663 + correct off-by-one in error messages reporting too-few or too-many 1664 tokens for a given option (reported by George Mirchev). 1665 + fix typo in manpage, "textboxbg" where "tailboxbg" was meant 1666 (reported by George Mirchev <la@mail.techno-link.com>). 1667 + use DLG_EXIT_xxx symbols consistently for all exit codes. 1668 + updated es.po (patch by Santiago Vila). 1669 + updates for some configure script macros from lynx: CF_MAKEFLAGS, 1670 CF_NCURSES_VERSION, CF_PROG_EXT. 1671 + fixes to compile if <term.h> is included, e.g., when building with 1672 AIX curses (report by Suzi Dowson <Suzi.Dowson@capgemini.co.uk>). 1673 16742001/05/27 1675 + updated dialog.pot 1676 + modify fselect.c to work with autosize, i.e., given height and width 1677 zero (report by Martin Povolny). 1678 + add a null-pointer check in justify_text(), needed by fselect.c 1679 + add several more options which dialog can safely ignore, from 1680 Xdialog 2.0.2 1681 + refinements for configure macros checking for $CPPFLAGS, from lynx. 1682 + update config.guess, config.sub to match autoconf 2.50 1683 > Martin Povolny <martin@solnet.cz>: 1684 + add cs.po 1685 + use nl_langinfo() to customize names for day-of-week, and month 1686 16872001/05/11 1688 > Vincent Stemen <dialog@AdvancedResearch.org>: 1689 Fixed dialog.c to not pass menu items through dlg_trim_string(). 1690 Stripping extra spaces out of the menu items broke some of my 1691 scripts by altering the string that it compared to know which menu 1692 item was selected. There should be no need to do justification on 1693 the menu items, which are always one line, anyway. 1694 16952001/04/29 1696 > Vincent Stemen <dialog@AdvancedResearch.org>: 1697 + rewrote the text justification code to be able to have preformatted 1698 text in the prompts with extra spaces like the older versions of 1699 dialog. If there are "\n" strings in the text, then extra spaces are 1700 preserved. Lines are always wrapped on word boundaries. 1701 + fixed --cr-wrap to break lines on '\n' (newline) characters and not 1702 add an extra line at the top and bottom of the text. It now works 1703 as the manual says it should. 1704 + it is no longer necessary to use "\n\" at the end of lines to escape 1705 the '\n' character. "\n" now works. However, the old way, "\n\" 1706 still works. 1707 + the fixes involved the following changes: 1708 - rewrote dlg_trim_string() to recognize preformatted text (know 1709 when not to strip extra spaces) and to pay attention to --cr-wrap. 1710 - rewrote justify_text() which now calls a new function in util.c, 1711 print_line(), to print each line and end it on a word boundary. 1712 - modified real_auto_size() to call a new function 1713 auto_size_preformated() to calculate the box size for preformatted 1714 text. 1715 - removed skip_blanks() and skip_text() since they are not used by 1716 the new justify_text(). 1717 - modified dialog.c to not call dlg_trim_string() on title strings 1718 so that titles retain their spaces. 1719 + modified the following demo files in the sample directory: 1720 - inputbox 1721 changed all "\n\" strings to "\n" to demonstrate the extra 1722 backslash is no longer needed. 1723 - inputbox1 1724 removed all the "\n\" strings from the end of the lines to 1725 properly demonstrate --cr-wrap. 1726 - msgbox1 1727 this sample was using "--aspect 9 --cr-wrap". Rewrote it to 1728 properly demonstrate --aspect. 9 is already dialog's default 1729 aspect ratio. It now creates several dialogs in sequence, 1730 demonstrating aspect ratios of 9, 12 and 6 and properly 1731 demonstrates --cr-wrap. 1732 + made the following changes to the manual (dialog.1). 1733 - rewrote the description of --aspect to be more understandable. 1734 - rewrote the description of --cr-wrap to be more correct and more 1735 detailed. It did say, "Otherwise, the text for each dialog will 1736 display on a single line.", which is not correct. It wraps the 1737 text to fit in the box. 1738 > T.Dickey: 1739 + use logic from menubox dialog in checklist to handle autosizing when 1740 list height is given as zero (fixes problem reported by Eric Veltman 1741 <eveltman@baan.nl>). 1742 + modify checklist and menubox dialogs to check for too-wide data, and 1743 truncate one or both of the name and text fields to fit (also 1744 reported by Eric Veltman). 1745 + corrected a few items from Vincent's patch: 1746 - use C89-style comments rather than C++ 1747 - restore logic in justify_text() which checks for win==0, needed to 1748 work with standard curses implementations other than ncurses. 1749 The first call on justify_text() passes a null pointer as a flag 1750 to indicate that checking should be done, but no screen updates. 1751 - avoid modifying the buffer in decode_percent(), otherwise a message 1752 containing a space or newline would be truncated at the whitespace. 1753 - modify dlg_button_x_step() and dlg_button_layout() slightly to 1754 work with altered print_autowrap(), etc. 1755 + fixes to build/work with SunOS 4.x 5lib curses 1756 17572001/04/15 1758 + fix a memory leak in mouse_region(). 1759 + simplify handling of optional parameters with new functions 1760 optional_str() and optional_num(). 1761 + add calendar and timebox dialogs (compatible with Xdialog). 1762 + correct typo in fallback definition for getparyx, and remove void 1763 cast for mouse_open and mouse_close which prevented build with 1764 Sun's Solaris compiler. 1765 + rename --enable-lxdialog configure option to --enable-Xdialog 1766 + modify CF_NCURSES_CPPFLAGS macro to match more variations of ncurses 1767 header files. 1768 + update config.guess, config.sub 1769 + modify some configure script macros to avoid problems with buggy 1770 autoconf 2.49c which breaks changequote(). 1771 17722001/01/15 1773 + small fix to revised real_auto_size() and justify_text() to avoid 1774 adding origin to box-width, which broke samples/wheel. 1775 + apply 1999/12/25 tempfile change to wheel and copismall samples. 1776 + add sample script for tailboxbg. 1777 + revised lock-file management to better ensure that locks are actually 1778 created by the tailbox subprocess(es). 1779 + correct hardcoded signal 15 in tailbox to SIGHUP to match 1780 documentation. Signal 15 is usually SIGTERM, which cannot be caught. 1781 + correct off-by-one comparison of return-value for arg_rest() which 1782 made 1783 dialog --gauge test 10 50 1784 dump core because it expected a 4th parameter (fixes Debian #80641). 1785 + resync config.sub, config.guess from 1786 http://subversions.gnu.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/config/ (which finally have 1787 cases for OS/2 EMX), minor tweaks to related configure script macros. 1788 17892000/12/17 1790 + restore treatment of predefined height/width in real_auto_size() 1791 which was lost in 2000/12/12 rewrite (report by Raphael Halimi 1792 <raphaelh@easynet.fr>). 1793 + updates for configure script macros AM_PATH_PROG_WITH_TEST, 1794 CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_LIB_PREFIX, CF_PROG_EXT for $PATHSEP and $CFLAGS 1795 fixes. 1796 17972000/12/13 1798 + correct change for create_lock(), which resulted in an infinite loop 1799 (patch by Chris Butler, <chrisb@debian.org>). 1800 18012000/12/12 1802 + rewrote print_autowrap() and real_auto_size() to share common code 1803 justify_text(), which now does text flow even when the string 1804 contains newlines (fixes Debian #77199). 1805 + improve create_lock() function using open() with O_EXCL rather than 1806 fopen() (patch by Matt Kraai (<kraai@debian.org>), Debian #78951). 1807 + correct description of --fselect in man page (patch by Tomas Pospisek 1808 (<tpo@spin.ch>), Debian #77200). 1809 + add --no-cancel as alias for --nocancel for compatibility with 1810 Xdialog (report by Luis E Limon <luisl@abriasoft.com>). 1811 18122000/10/27 1813 + some lint fixes using lclint (mostly void-casts, but some 1814 sign-extension fixes e.g., for ctype.h macros, and loop in 1815 dlg_char_to_button()). 1816 + modified to build/run on OS/2 EMX with ncurses. 1817 + minor changes to po/*.po (trim trailing blanks, provide explicit 1818 translation for "OK"), to work with Solaris gettext. 1819 + modified to allow this to build with archaic version (1.8.6) 1820 of ncurses on FreeBSD 3.1 (does not run). 1821 + update config.guess, config.sub from subversions.gnu.org 1822 18232000/10/17 1824 + use new function sub_window() to check success/failure of calls to 1825 subwin(), printing an error message if it fails (fixes Debian #74903). 1826 + use combination of isatty/ttyname to look for workable tty device 1827 on systems which have no /dev/tty, e.g., BeOS. 1828 18292000/10/08 1830 + change exiterr() to use stdarg.h, make some messages easier to 1831 understand. 1832 + add dialog_clear() 1833 + make samples/install/setup build. 1834 + implemented mouse support for buttons, e.g., in yesno dialog using 1835 ncurses (the gpm support no longer works, but is useful for reference) 1836 + add a configure check for chtype. 1837 + updates for configure script macros (CF_BUNDLED_INTL, CF_CURSES_LIBS, 1838 CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES, CF_GCC_WARNINGS, CF_INCLUDE_DIRS), and scripts 1839 config.guess, config.sub 1840 + cleanup of item-help change, integrate with checklist and radiobox. 1841 + add ja.po, from Hirofumi Takeda <takepin@turbolinux.co.jp>. 1842 > patch by Marco Mariani <marcom@sferacarta.com> 1843 + add --item-help option, which makes menubox data interpreted as 1844 3 columns rather than 2. The third column is displayed on the 1845 last line of the screen as a help/status message for the currently 1846 selected item. 1847 + add it.po, pt.po 1848 + change TAG_KEY_HL to FALSE, making unselected items in checklist 1849 easier to read on Linux console. 1850 18512000/07/30 1852 + change real_auto_size() to allow it to be used for dialogs that have 1853 no prompt, e.g., fselect. Also, rather than requiring both height 1854 and width to be given as -1 for maximizing the dialog, allow either 1855 alone. 1856 + increase minimum height needed for autosized yesno dialog. 1857 + add --version as an alias for --print-version. 1858 + fix for build on Solaris without NLS (cannot redefine 'gettext()'). 1859 + add fselect dialog (compatible with Xdialog). 1860 + add --enable-lxdialog configure option. 1861 + use new configure macro CF_ARG_MSG_ENABLE to show progress with 1862 enable/disable switches. 1863 18642000/07/02 1865 + implement --stdout and --stderr options as in Xdialog. 1866 + move logic that translates "\\n" into '\n' into main program to 1867 simplify logic that formats text. 1868 + make ifdef's for rc-file not specific to ncurses. 1869 + correct logic making percent parameter of gauge optional. 1870 18712000/06/29 1872 + add alternate test-script for gauge, adapted from Xdialog. 1873 + modify gauge to make optional a percentage which was read at the 1874 beginning of the XXX-delimited message text, since clones of dialog 1875 are written to assume this is text. If the line is not a simple 1876 integer, dialog will treat it as text. 1877 + make the percent parameter of gauge optional, as in Xdialog. 1878 + undo one use of CharOf() in guage.c, an error. 1879 + fix configure macro AM_WITH_NLS to refrain from attempting to make a 1880 symbolic link into/libintl.h if we are not using the bundled intl 1881 directory from gettext (reported by Julian Coleman 1882 <J.D.Coleman@newcastle.ac.uk>). 1883 + add ru.po, from Michael Sobolev <mss@transas.com> 1884 + updates for config.guess, config.sub from tin. 1885 + updates for configure script macros: CF_MATH_LIB (improperly nested 1886 brackets/parenthesis) and CF_XOPEN_CURSES (make include of 1887 <*curses.h> depend on configure tests). 1888 18892000/04/25 1890 + repaint screen when a control/L is pressed. 1891 + apply CharOf() macro to avoid sign-extension on calls to waddch(), 1892 fixes a problem with accented characters (reported by Santiago Vila). 1893 + add es.po, from Santiago Vila <sanvila@unex.es> 1894 18952000/04/23 1896 + modified to use gettext (configure option --enable-nls). This uses 1897 gettext 0.10.35, which must be previously installed. (It can also 1898 use an included intl library, but I consider that to be a waste of 1899 disk space). 1900 + remove code in checklist/radiobox, menubox that try to use 1901 abbreviations for the OK/Cancel buttons since those conflict with the 1902 check for abbreviations in list entries, which are more useful. 1903 + moved padding of button labels out of string literals, into the 1904 logic of dlg_draw_buttons(). 1905 + resync/update with configure macros CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_FIND_LIBRARY, 1906 CF_HEADER_PATH, CF_LIBRARY_PATH and CF_NCURSES_LIBS, as well as 1907 mkdirs.sh and config.guess. 1908 19092000/02/22 1910 + add --default-item option, for menubox to set the default selection 1911 (fixes Debian #49796). 1912 + add sample scripts for --nocancel and --fb options with inputbox. 1913 + modify inputbox* sample scripts to show application errors, if any. 1914 + add --nocancel option, and ignore --noitem, --fb, --fullbutton, to 1915 make this compatible with whiptail scripts. (whiptail does not 1916 handle many dialog scripts however). 1917 + modify checklist/radiobox to handle home, end, nextpage, prevpage 1918 keys, as well as make the abbreviation search work for the whole 1919 list, not only the current page. 1920 + treat KEY_LL the same as KEY_END in checklist and textbox. 1921 + add logic for KEY_BTAB. 1922 + use new function dlg_draw_buttons() to better manage the layout of 1923 yes/no/ok/cancel buttons. 1924 + another pass of cleanup of dialog.c, makes it use a single table for 1925 lookup of option names and help-message. Eliminated numerous 1926 adjustments to 'offset' variable. 1927 + on initialization, check if standard input is from a terminal. If 1928 not, open /dev/tty (fixes Debian #57771) 1929 19302000/02/05 1931 + implement inline editing in textbox.c search dialog. 1932 + revise inputbox.c, allowing inline editing with arrow-keys. removed 1933 redundant logic in that module. 1934 + correct a typo that prevented rc-file configuration from building. 1935 + correct ifdef's to compile/run if the curses implementation does not 1936 support color. 1937 19382000/01/23 1939 + improve test-case for gauge. 1940 + change gauge.c to show progress in reverse-video, add a check for 1941 end-of-file in the loop for reading new messages. 1942 + use curses whline() function to simplify print_arrows() logic in 1943 checklist.c and menubox.c 1944 + use curses beep() function rather than hardcoded strings. 1945 + correct several compiler warnings for gcc -pedantic (mismatch of 1946 const, signed/unsigned). 1947 + modify exiterr() to avoid possible expansion of '%'. 1948 + change CF_MATH_LIB configure macro to allow specifying a particular 1949 test-function. For dialog, this should be sqrt(). The macro was 1950 originally written for ncurses, which needs sin(). However, that is 1951 a builtin function on the m68k port (reported by Roman Hodek 1952 <Roman.Hodek@informatik.uni-erlangen.de>, this fixes Debian #55553). 1953 19542000/01/18 1955 + update manpage (Debian #25648). 1956 + modify configure test for math library to avoid using a constant 1957 parameter to the test function, lest gcc optimize the call away 1958 (fixes Debian #55553). 1959 + restructure help-message so actual problem is indicated. The original 1960 help-message is shown if no parameters are given, or if the --help 1961 option is specified alone. 1962 + suppress xterm's alternate screen mode by sending an exit_ca_mode 1963 after initscr if the terminal looks like xterm, e.g., has key_mouse 1964 defined, and has private-mode escapes in both enter_ca_mode and 1965 exit_ca_mode (fixes Debian #55181). 1966 + change yellow lettering on white to blue on white, since it offers 1967 better contrast (fixes Debian #51196). 1968 + use napms() rather than sleep(). 1969 + some cleanup/simplification of main program. Indent'd dialog.c and 1970 util.c 1971 + eliminate several places where repeated options are treated as 1972 an error, since they are really executed once anyway. 1973 19742000/01/15 1975 + remove pre-autoconf Makefile 1976 + remove sleep's from a few of the sample scripts, which left users 1977 thinking that dialog was slow to complete an action. 1978 + rewrote infobox sample script, using dialog's --sleep option and 1979 a loop in the script. 1980 + change 'ch' variable in tailbox.c to an integer, because it is 1981 compared against EOF (fixes Debian #53157). 1982 + corrected mandir variable in makefile.in (reported by Santiago Vila). 1983 + small changes to sample scripts, from Debian: rename "guage" script 1984 to "gauge", change path to copy of GPL used in textbox. 1985 + add uninstall rule to makefile.in, fixed some dependencies so 1986 "make install" works without first doing "make all". 1987 19881999/12/25 1989 + use more portable scheme for tempfile generation in samples. 1990 + add a configure script, prefer to not use the original Makefile 1991 because it works only with GNU make. 1992 + correct prototype of 'main()', which misused const. 1993 + modify guage.c to use fgets() rather than gets(). 1994 + merge changes from Debian package maintainer 1995 Santiago Vila <sanvila@ctv.es>: 1996 1997 1999/10/07 1998 + add a password dialog box (Debian #45964, patch by Joey Hess). 1999 + implement "--defaultno" option to specify if the default for 2000 the yes/no box is "No" (Debian #46076, patch by Joey Hess). 2001 1999/03/10 2002 + modify input.c to clear the input field to the right of the 2003 given string, to help with screen-refresh 2004 1998/12/08 2005 + check for list_height less than one in checklist.c (Debian 2006 #22239). 2007 1998/10/21 2008 + use function wscrl() in preference to scroll() in checklist.c 2009 and menubox.c (unclear: in ncurses, scroll() is a macro that 2010 uses wscrl()). 2011 + remove the "-I/usr/include/ncurses" option from Makefile 2012 since Debian does not install ncurses' header files into 2013 that directory. 2014 1998/09/12 2015 + simplify menubox.c using new functions print_arrows() and 2016 print_items(). add logic to handle KEY_NPAGE and KEY_PPAGE 2017 (Debian #26326). 2018 + modifications to provide sample scripts (Debian #26211): 2019 + change sample scripts to use Debian tempfile utility rather 2020 than putting files into /tmp. 2021 + change sample scripts to use 'dialog' from user's path 2022 rather than in the parent directory as in the build 2023 directory. 2024 + use the system copy of GPL rather than that in the build 2025 directory as an example for the textbox script. 2026 20271999/11/27 2028 + fix some gcc warnings about ambiguous use of "else" 2029 20301999/05/01 2031 + cleaned up some of the redundant code with new functions: 2032 box_x_ordinate 2033 box_y_ordinate 2034 draw_title 2035 draw_bottom_box 2036 new_window 2037 2038 + modified msgbox.c and yesno.c to work with the KEY_RESIZE sigwinch 2039 handling in ncurses 4.2 2040 2041 + corrected spelling of "gauge" 2042 2043The relevant portions of the Debian change log for the original version 2044(dialog-0.9a-12) are abstracted here, omitting details of their packaging: 2045 20461998/05/24 2047 2048 + Replaced guage.c by the one in dialog 0.6z, which is known to work. 2049 Fixes Debian #18284: unstable dialog. 2050 20511997/12/16 2052 2053 + dialog.c: dialog_input_result printed with "%s" format. This was 2054 Debian #9913, fixed by Bill Mitchell, but the change was lost. 2055 + Pristine source, .depend is not removed in clean target. Instead, it 2056 is made zero length (otherwise it would not work *without* fakeroot). 2057 + Added '^U' support in input box (Debian #9915, patch by Joey Hess). 2058 + Wrote patch to fix core-dumping problem (Debian #13170).
