have some functions broken and contain partially implemented features.
commit f0e0b9c899ef7c437cc321437d02b264af783c1f
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-04-26 16:13:44
Unix: Fix inconsistencies in calculating the character cell size which
would cause underscores and character descenders to get chopped off at some
font sizes.
commit d8a918ee6d1af8573c8db468dc1d23447ae2eb44
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-04-23 19:25:33
Unix: Draw some more box drawing characters directly instead of rendering
as text (light, medium & dark "shade" characters) for better looking
progress bars.
commit dfaa339b64429ea2c50be0b1eef70fa8da37d5dd
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-04-15 16:58:51
Unix: Switch to using Pango to render text instead of Cairo's built in
"toy" text renderer.
commit d0f56d100eecf3203f425b62bd6a176221eec76d
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>

window border.

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-04-10 14:59:29
Unix: Draw the box characters manually rather than rendering the text
characters to ensure they always join up properly regardless of configured
font.
commit 0cfd307d356eae7deebbf15155fdaf38443910ef
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-03-20 12:03:17
Editor: Allow adding text by typing or pasting if the line is already 64k
characters long.

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-03-01 14:15:04
Editor: Allow Ctrl-Z/Ctrl-Shift-Z to be used for undo/redo.

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-02-23 23:20:27
Linux: Fix fc-remote failing to start after last few changes to pty
handling.

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-02-22 14:37:39

commit 7c387ed81d533ff1c2f0009f8e6c0092da09ef9d
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-02-18 17:34:29
Linux: Fix executing commands from an fcl started from a command line.
commit a30132aa9298faa03dd987b117147f1708fc72d7
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2023-09-28 14:23:32
Revamp of Linux console:
- Update gtkmm from 2.4 to 3.0
- Paint text using pre-rendered character tiles. This ensures all characters
are draw with equal width/height, fixing issues with non-monospaced font
substitutions messing up text alignment.
- Line drawing characters are now rendered without anti-aliasing so they
join up cleanly.
- Scrolling large amounts of text is currently quite a bit slower than
before but only noticable if ScrollDelay=0 or running something like
cat very_large_text_file.txt
commit 08f547020dddef53f45919521a43b30f7e8aba20

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2024-02-08 18:10:28
Linux: Further tweaks to process pty handling that enables sudo to
recognise that it's already been authorised recently by maintaining fcl as
the session leader.
Processes that detach themselves like sshfs, while they survive being
launched, die when fcl exits unless nohup is used.
commit 3b35691cbc13d4e230a271a551befb1d303865a2
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>

Fix uninitialised textmode variable after using fdopen(). Was harmless but
noticed by valgrind.

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>

processes that detach by forking after being launched by FC would
immediately die.

Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>

Date: 2023-12-25 20:51:55

screen for every file deleted. Instead, paint the screen in another thread
with the current file when triggered.

Recognise .zstd as an extension for a zstd compressed file as well as .zst
when showing the name of the file "inside" a zstd archive.

Add mouse wheel scrolling in scroll back viewer.
commit 4ce53861b5d4468c1124f8e54cfc8b778ee9ccf0
Author: Brian Havard <brianh@kheldar.apana.org.au>
Date: 2023-08-24 12:32:52
Unix: Add MountPointIncludeDevice option which is the logical opposite of
MountPointExcludeDevice. This can be used to avoid double negative logic
when you want to specify what to include rather than exclude.

| File Commander/2 v. 2.40 (3/3/2010, Brian Havard) | Readme/What's new |
New in File Commander/2 v2.40
=============================
New Features
o Support includes in user menu files.
o Syntax highlighting in the viewer.
o Viewer and editor support for Unicode text files.
o Support for 7zip archives.
o Support for bzip2 files.
o File Information display (Ctrl-I) shows complete file metadata.
o Ctrl-Shift-E to eject removable media & Ctrl-Shift-L to load.
Minor Enhancements
o Change the search match highlight colour in the viewer from "Menu Bar"
to "Highlight" which is consistent with the editor and more sensible.
o Preserve the case of environment variable names.
Case insensitive matching is now Unicode based so will work with all
languages.
o Allow re-sorting of File Find results before search has finished.
o Use a separate thread to update the file copy progress box to reduce
flicker and improve copy speed.
o Editor: line length limit of 64kB removed.
o Added new syntax highlighting directive, "statechange" which allows
more flexible state transitions.
o Added includes in syntax defintion file.
o Add support for Unicode file names in RAR archives.
o TAR file support improvements
- Fix checksum calculation when there are bytes in the header >127.
- Interpret file names as UTF-8.
o Added field in File Find to specify the code page used when searching
files for the "Containing" string.
o Copy/Move: Add ability to specify overwrite mode in the initial dialog so
that you don't have to wait for the first collision to occur.
o Add !lf operator to provide a list of tagged files with their full path.
o Add !tf (tagged file with full path).
o Add ability to remove an entry from command history with Delete key.
o Syntax Highlighter: Add /w flag for syntax states of "word scope" to
assist with LISP keywords.
o Syntax Highlighter: Enable word characters to be redefined for each
state.
Bug Fixes
o User Menu: Make menu item hot key work if specified in lower case in
the mnu file. This used to work in 2.20 but was broken while adding
support for sub-menus.
o Fix display of hex view when code page translation is active. Was
"translating" the vertical bar separators.
o Fix file copy ETA overflowing copy progress dialog & causing screen
corruption when a huge file copy starts off slowly.
o In Change Case, mixed mode should not capitalise the character after an
apostrophe.
o In viewer, fix background colour of line continuation markers (right
arrow at the end of a line that's longer than the window when unwrapped).
o Multi-file search/replace confirmation prompt, extend box width if
necessary to fit the text values and don't overflow box if text still
won't fit.
o Fix !F when opposite panel is showing an archive's contents.
o Fix !t behaviour in archives. |
