Changes:
Highlights since 9.3:
+ Bug fixes, lots. See the CHANGES file for details.
General changes
===============
+ regular expressions and searches allow null characters.
+ minibuffer editing commands are more complete, implementing all of the
inline cursor search- and motion-commands.
+ implement new editing commands in the minibuffer: r, ~, x, X.
+ use insert-mode bindings when mini-edit mode is active. Use insert-key
to toggle, rather than set mini-edit mode.
+ modify buffer- and filename-completion on Unix to escape backslashes
which are stored in the [Completions] buffer. Doing this allows one
to complete a buffer or filename containing a backslash.
+ improve history-editing by quoting tokens which contain embedded blanks
or other special characters, using that to retrieve tokens from the
history buffer unambiguously.
+ save/restore window modes such as linewrap when rereading a file,
or when executing a shell command.
+ use realpath() if it is available, and "$VILE_PWD" environment variable
rather than "." as parameter to getcwd() if it is valid, to speed up
operation on quasi-filesystems such as ClearCase.
+ add configure option --with-screen=XawPlus for XawPlus library.
+ add configure option --with-screen=ncursesw to allow building the
curses driver using the wide-character version of ncurses.
+ add check in tcap.c for terminfo kmous capability like xterm, in case
we are running in screen, which also supports xterm mouse protocol.
+ modify support for "^X-e" to make it use the whole line if the current
buffer is a directory.
Locale Improvements
===================
+ change default for --with-locale option to yes. Note that this
option is only tested if locale support is found, and it is becoming
less common to encounter systems with broken locale support.
+ add "locale" to the "$cfgopts" variable if vile is compiled with
locale support.
+ modify vile-manfilt to decode UTF-8 emitted by groff 1.18
+ in UTF-8 locale, adjust termcap driver to use UTF-8 to display codes
in the 160-255 range, setting vile's locale to non-UTF-8 locale.
(yes, this is a short-term fix).
+ add configure check for wctype functions, to work around defect in
glibc's ctype functions: in UTF-8 locale, the latter return useless
information on character classes. This works on Solaris.
+ move upper/lower case-conversion into tables so that locale support can
augment the built-in translation.
New Commands
============
+ "which-keywords" macro shows the location of files containing keywords
for the given majormode.
+ "edit-buffer" simplifies "which-keywords" and similar macros.
+ "encode-attributes-til" and "write-encoded-til" convert the syntax
highlighting in a region back to control/A sequences, or write the
corresponding data to a file. There is a corresponding alias
"decode-attributes-til" for "attribute-cntl_a-sequences-til".
+ "substitute-all-til" implements the "^X-s" binding.
New Modes
=========
+ add "overlap-matches" mode, to control whether highlighting for the
visual-matches mode should skip to the next character, or past the
current match when checking.
+ add "percent-crlf" mode, which controls the threshold at which the
whole file will be considered DOS-format (CRLF record separators)
if the given percentage already ends with CR/LF.
+ "yankmotion" mode controls whether the cursor should be moved as in vi
after yanking text.
+ add "xterm-title" mode.
+ add logmode majormode, to distinguish some makefiles from logfiles.
+ add "texmode" majormode, as a variation of latexmode.
New Variables and Functions
===========================
+ add several short-named relational operators "&geq", ">", "&leq",
"<", "&neq", "&sgeq", "&sgt", "&sleq", "&slt", "&sneq" to reduce
the need for "¬".
+ add "$pathname-separator" variable.
Syntax Filters
==============
+ add Ruby syntax filter.
+ add syntax filter for rpm ".spec" files.
+ add syntax filter for PostScript ".ps" files.
+ add syntax filter for enscript ".st" files.
+ add xml-filter based on html-filter.
+ add pot-filt.l, to highlight ".po" files. Using sh-filt.l was
not satisfactory since the quoting rules were not close enough.
+ add syntax filters and corresponding modes for assembler (GNU and M$),
info and texinfo.
+ add -j option to c-filt.c, to implement some java-specific features
such as "$" as part of an identifier, and \u escapes.
+ add un-filters (atr2ansi, atr2html, atr2text) which convert encoded
control/A text to different forms.
+ modify spell.rc, spellflt.l and select.c to allow spell filter to
work as a built-in filter.
+ modify built-in spell filter to work with encrypted files.
+ add a -t option to filters, to pass tabstop value. Use this in
makefilt.l to provide better highlighting of problems with leading
whitespace.
+ modify manpage.rc to check if the current buffer is perl, and if so,
to render contents using pod2man or pod2text.
+ set "vilemode" for [History] buffer.
+ reorder lex-based filters to allow building with flex 2.5.31, which
introduces several incompatibilities with respect to flex 2.5.4
and lex.
+ add configure check/warning for flex 2.5.31, which has broken support
for the "-P" option used for built-in filters.
* It adds support for old files from LyX 0.10.x or 0.12.x;
* Lyx documents can now be opened and edited even if
they use text classes not present in your latex installation;
* New Qt features have been added (improved selection,
drag-and-drop);
* Mac OS X support is much improved;
* The interface and documentation localization have
been polished.

screenful
* -w num option in bmore (display the indicated number of bytes in each
line)
* autoconf 2.52

pkgsrc-wip (which was updated from 0.6.0 and with multiple corrections):
MlView is an XML editor for the GNOME environment. Some of its features are:
* Cut/copy/paste as child/paste as prev/paste as next/ of XML elements.
* XML element/attributes search.
* Multi docs edition.
* Several editing views can be opened on the same document.
* Drag and drop based copy/cut/past of XML elements.
* Edition of XML elements and attributes can be made directly on the tree.
* Namespace support.
* On-demand validation.
* Graphical error reporting. Parse/validation time errors reported.
graphically. This feature is new so it may be buggy or not well polished...
* When validation is switched on, MlView proposes an elements/attributes.
completion feature. When an element is added to the tree, MlView also
adds the children elements required by the DTD for the document to be valid.
* Validation can be switched off. The XML document editon can then be done
without any constraint.
* A clean code.
Dasher is an information-efficient text-entry interface, driven by natural
continuous pointing gestures. Dasher is a competitive text-entry system
wherever a full-size keyboard cannot be used - for example:
- on a palmtop computer
- on a wearable computer
- when operating a computer one-handed, by joystick, touchscreen, trackball,
or mouse
- when operating a computer with zero hands (i.e., by head-mouse or by
eyetracker)
Enhancements
* New translations: Croatian (hr) (Robert Sedak), Japanese (ja) (Mitsuru Oka)
* Updated translations: Albanian (sq) (Laurent Dhima), Serbian (sr.po,
sr@Latn.po) (Danilo ?egan), nl (Daniel van Eeden), Czech (cs) (Miloslav
Trmac), Greek (el) (Kostas Papadimas), German (de) (Christian Neumair),
Croatian (hr) (Robert Sedak)
* Added preliminary support for the TEI Lite format (Roberto Rosselli Del
Turco)
* Big fix of XML namespace handling. Dispspecs now refer to elements using a
namespace URI (if any) and the local name within that namespace.
Element-matching code now uses namespaces rather than prefixes in various
places, including the XSL-FO and RELAX NG plugins, which should lead to
more robust handling of arbitrary documents. (me)
* When determining which dispspec to use, calculate coverage of the document
elements and pick the best (above a certain threshold percentage) (me)
* New dialog for selecting which child element to insert when a DTD requires
such a choice. The new dialog lists both the XML names and the translated
names with icons where available (me)
* Added a workaround for bug #124507 which pops up a dialog explaining what
the problem is and tells you which elements are causing it. The problem
elements will not appear in the editor widget. The dialog repeats every
time the document is editor, but this is better behaviour than a silent
crash :-) (me)
Fixes
* Reorganised source tree so that the xds files live in their own "dispspecs"
subdirectory, rather than sharing the "examples" folder with the sample
instance documents (Geert Stappers)
* Tidying up of plugin management code to use Service IDs to identify
instances and GType to identify classes (me)
* Big warning fix, should now compile cleanly on "-Wall -Werror" (me)
* Big cleanup of the insides of the popup context menu, replacing lots of
obcure hackery with a more maintainable system. (me)
