Eterm is a color vt102 terminal emulator intended as an xterm replacement
for users who want a term program integrated with Enlightenment, or simply
want a little more "eye candy".
* Update to eterm-0.8.9 * make COMMENT and DESCR a bit more descriptive * change MAINTAINER to packages@netbsd.org * Install Eterm as setuid root so that utmp logging functions correctly. This fixes PR#7365. Changes in 0.8.9: ----------------- - Support for scrolling with mouse wheels. - New --version switch to display compile-time configuration. - Tinting and shading have been sped up by about 30% thanks to Michael Pearson <alcaron@ozemail.com.au>. - Scrollbar type and width is now customizeable at compile-time and run-time. Support for NeXT-style scrollbars has also been added. - Three major bugs have been fixed. Tiled desktop images no longer cause crashes when tinting or shading. The resize crash bug has also been squished. The secure system() call replacement which was accidentally removed has been added back. - Ctrl-Button1 now grabs input focus. Ctrl-Button2 toggles the scrollbar on and off. Ctrl-Button3 toggles the menubar on and off. NOTE: If you used to disable the menubar by commenting out the loading of the menubar file, or loading a fake one (e.g., '-Mx' or '-M /dev/null'), don't. Simply add "off" to the end of the menu line (e.g., 'menu Eterm.menu off'), or use the new boolean command-line option --menubar (e.g., '--menubar off'). Then you can toggle the menubar using Ctrl-Button3 like you would expect. - Popup scrollbar support has been added. - New -D (--desktop) option for choosing a desktop to start on. Your window manager must be GNOME-compliant for this to work. See the documentation at http://www.gnome.org/devel/gnomewm/ for info on the _WIN_WORKSPACE property. - The Eterm Technical Reference has been completely rewritten. It is now an HTML document located in the doc/ directory. - Lots and lots and lots of new escape sequences. See the Technical Reference for details on them. - Oodles of small bug fixes, as always. :-) - Debugging output is now runtime configurable. Use the --debug option and supply a number. 0 (the default) gives no debugging output. 1-5 give increasingly more output, up to 5 (which I don't recommend using) which synchronizes X events (and slows things down bigtime). - You can now save your current Eterm settings from the menu. - New --app-keypad and --app-cursor options to set the startup mode for application/normal mode for the keypad and cursor keys. - Three new utilities in addition to Esetroot, all of which are located in the utils/ directory. Etbg is a tool for manipulating Eterm's background image on the fly. Etcolors.sh demonstrates all the different combinations of your current color settings. Etmenu.sh lets you send menu commands to Eterm's menubar subsystem without having to type the escape codes yourself. - Borderless Eterms now attempt to use the Window Manager to become borderless instead of bypassing it altogether. 1999-10-28 02:31:57 +02:00			`Eterm is a color vt102 terminal emulator intended as an xterm replacement`
