pkgsrc changes:
* Delete NO_CONFIGURE and convert SUBST_STAGE.* to pre-configure as
suggested in The pkgsrc guide. (no functional changes intended)
Changes:
* More complicated default key bindings for potentially destructive
actions to minimize the chance of accidental presses:
MOD-x-x closes the focused window
MOD-q-q quits dvtm
* Simplified client creation code, elimination of useless intermediate
shell. This should fix Mod-C (the creation of a new window with the
same working directory as the currently focused window) for systems
where procfs is available.
* Copymode coloring: if enabled in config.def.h (which is currently only
the case for less) the piped scrollback buffer will contain escape
codes to preserve the coloring.
$ DVTM_EDITOR=less dvtm
Generate some colored output and press MOD-e (i.e. CTRL-g-e by
default) less should now display the same content (that is with
color) and provide search functionality etc.
* Urgent flag indications (after a client received a bell) are redrawn
as soon as possible.
* Small bug fixes for terminal emulation and mouse actions.
Slight cleanup of config.def.h and the dvtm-status script.
Problems found locating distfiles:
Package colorls: missing distfile ls.tar.gz
Package molden: missing distfile molden-4.6/molden4.6.tar.gz
Package softmaker-office-demo: missing distfile ofl06trial.tgz
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.
Changes:
* nmaster functionality available via MOD+{i,d} i.e. the possibility
to change the number of windows displayed in the master area
* "urgent flags" that is if an application issues a bell \a the urgent
flag is set and the corresponding tag will blink
* distinguish between return key and new line this fixes the behaviour
of CTRL+j in certain applications
* rudimentary support for the \e[?10{47,48,49}{h,l} xterm sequences
to switch between alternate and normal screen buffer as used by
>= abduco 0.3
* better Unicode support in the statusbar
* the current layout symbol is displayed in the tag bar
* the position of the status/tag bar is runtime configurable via MOD+S
* code cleanups and fixes from static analyzers
* DragonFly BSD support

dvtm-0.13 released (15.11.2014)
------------------------------
Changes include:
* rewritten copy mode as an external process
Upon MOD+e dvtm pipes the whole screen buffer content to $EDITOR.
Whatever the editor writes to stdout will be stored in an internal
dvtm register for later pasting with MOD+p.
This only works if your editor of choice is usable as a filter i.e:
echo Hello World | $EDITOR - | cat
An alternative editor to use can be set with the environment variable
$DVTM_EDITOR. Instructions for the intended usage together with vis
can be found at:
http://lists.suckless.org/dev/1411/23973.html
* tagging concept working the same as in dwm. Current key bindings are
as follows:
Mod-F[1..n]
Mod-v-[1..n]
View all windows with nth tag.
Mod-0 View all windows with any tag.
Mod-v-Tab
Toggles to the previously selected tags.
Mod-V-[1..n]
Add/remove all windows with nth tag to/from the view.
Mod-t-[1..n]
Apply nth tag to focused window.
Mod-T-[1..n]
Add/remove nth tag to/from focused window.
The default configuration sets up five different tags (1-5).
* rudimentarily sanitize $SHELL such that SHELL=dvtm dvtm is no longer
a fork bomb.
* more flexible key binding configuration including the possibility
to specify key bindings involving 3 subsequent symbols.
* unified drawing of minimized windows always on the last screen line.
Previously the arrangement of those minimized windows was done by the
individual layouts.
* use of pselect(2) instead of select(2) in order to fix a race condition.
* cleanups and comments for the terminal emulation code (vt.[ch]).
This is also in preparation for eventual use in vis.
Support for italic attributes and terminfo entries ({r,s}itm).
Recognize '\033];title\007' as title changing sequence.
* build system (i.e config.mk) should now respect $TERMINFO and $PREFIX
if set. By default _POSIX_C_SOURCE=200809L and _XOPEN_SOURCE=700 is
used, if you get compile errors change them to match whatever your
system needs to expose the required interfaces.
* Solaris and AIX support (with some tweaks to config.mk)
All in all a lot of code was changed, comments, patches and a thorough
review is always welcome!
As a kind of social experiment I also pushed a mirror of the repository
to github:

dvtm-0.12 released (05.07.2014)
------------------------------
Changes include:
* fixes to the redraw logic
* new copymode key bindings CTRL+u (page-up), CTRL+d (page-down), CTRL+c (quit)
* a new layout included in the source tarball but not enabled by default:
vstack where all windows have the full screen width
* cleanups to the build system and manual page
The tagging branch[1] has also been rebased. Special thanks to Mark Edgar
for his patches.
dvtm-0.11 released (08.03.2014)
------------------------------
Changes since the 0.10 release include:
* keybindings can be defined without any modifier key as result
config.def.h was reindented. Sorry for the resulting merge
conflicts.
* scroll up and down is now also bound to Shift-Page{Up,Down}
* the window border is no longer drawn if there exists only 1 window.
This means when you start dvtm without any command you will just
get a normal shell prompt without any decoration. This might be
useful for people who use a terminal without builtin scrollback
buffer support.
* MOD+Tab switches to the previously focused window
* Upon terminal resize the whole screen is completely redrawn. This
fixes an issue with the optimized redraw logic introduced in the
last release when attaching to an existing session with dtach or
abduco.
* the lock functionality (MOD-X) has been removed, use a session
management tool like abduco to detach from your controlling
terminal and logout properly using the existing system mechanism.
dvtm-0.10 released (28.12.2013)
------------------------------
This is mostly a bugfix release with
* improved redraw logic to reduce cursor flickering
* better non blocking input handling
* a couple of fixes to dvtm.info terminfo description (kbs, rs1)
* various other fixes (fd leakage, misuse of strncpy, handling of I/O errors)
as there were changes to dvtm.info make sure to install the new version.
Furthermore I've rebased the tagging branch, which provides the same tagging
facilities that we know and love from dwm, on top of master:
* copymode
The copymode gives easy acess to the scroll back buffer. The commands
use vi style keybindings, use Mod+v to activate it, navigate with
h,j,k,l,^,$,g,H,M,L,G search with / (forward) and ? (backwards) select
text with v and copy it with y. Then later paste it with MOD+p.
The search functionality is also available directly via MOD+/ and MOD+?.
Read the manual page for further information. This could be useful
for st users who want a scroll back buffer.
* alternate screen mode
The alternate mode is for example used by midnight commander when you
press CTRL+o to switch between the file manager and the shell where the
output is now preserved even after multiple switches back and forth.
* dvtm now ships its own terminfo file dvtm.info (which at this time is
mostly a copy of the previously used rxvt one) as a consequence $TERM
within dvtm window is now set to dvtm{,-256color} depending on whether
the "outer" terminal supports 256 color mode. The value of $TERM within
dvtm can be overriden by the environment variable DVTM_TERM which
will be appropriately suffixed by "-256color" if possible.
So make sure to install the shipped dvtm.info terminal description file
("make install" does it by default).
* MOD+C creates a new window with the same working directory as the
currently active window (this relies on the /proc filesystem and thus
only works on Linux furthermore it expects a POSIX.1-2008 conformant
realpath(3) implementation).
* -M command line flag to disable mouse support upon startup so that dvtm's
mouse handling doesn't interfere with standard X text selection
* -t command line flag to set a static title of the dvtm "root window" i.e.
the terminal in which dvtm itself runs. If the flag is omitted dvtm now
sets the title to the one of the currently focused window.
* dvtm now follows the config.def.h conventions of the other suckless
projects which prevents conflicts with config.h and thus allows easier
tracking of the git repository.
* various terminal emulation fixes
* various code cleanups all over the place
PR 46585 by maintainer Leonardo Taccari.
Pkgsrc changes:
* Switched to <../..mk/curses.buildlink3.mk>: now dvtm also works with
curses(3).
* Reset maintainership to pkgsrc-users@NetBSD.org.
Changes:
* on resize backfill text from the buffer if possible
* fix for a segfault in resize code
* support for the 8 basic highlighted colors
* compilation fixes for BSD curses and pdcurses (however the
latter doesn't actually work due to the select(2) driven event loop
of dvtm)
* some AIX fixes
* graphmode fixes
* fibonacci layout (not enabled by default)
* dynamic color changes depending on the window title configurable in
config.h
* window borders are now drawn using the colors specified in config.h
* rudimentary mouse support, that is mouse events will be passed to
the underlying terminal application
* relicense terminal emulation component from LGPL to ISC
* various source code cleanups (code reviews and patches are always
welcome)
PR#45315 by Bug Hunting.
Changes include:
- window content buffering upon resize, this actually improves
usability quite a bit. Thanks to Niki Yoshiuchi for the initial
patch
- multiplexing mode, press MOD+a and your keystrokes will be sent
to all non minimized windows. Could be handy if you have to do
something interactive simultaneously on multiple servers.
- a bug fix which should prevent leaking open file descriptors
While here set a proper LICENSE (dvtm is under MIT/X license).
Changes:
o compile fix for Mac OS X
o optional beep on terminal bell (enable it per window with MOD+B)
o the whole screen redraw command which is now by default associated
with MOD+r reads the terminal size and adjust the working area
accordingly
Plain ncurses doesn't seem to be supported anymore, so switch over to
use ncursesw by default and remove the corresponding PKG_OPTION.
0.5.1 changes:
o Compile fix for missing set_escdelay function
o Correct escape codes for HOME / END keys
o The Makefile links against libncursesw by default, make unicode is gone
0.5 changes:
o Scrollback support
o 256 color support
o Reduced latency on some keystrokes (lower $ESCDELAY value by default)
o Statusbar should now support wide characters
o $DVTM environment variable which is set to the current version
o Screen lock functionality with Mod+X
o Support for shifted arrow keys
o Mod+? now displays the dvtm man page
o Cygwin compile fix
o Code cleanups and shrinkage by adding lots of static modifiers
o Top stack layout (not compiled in by default)
o Scripting interface over a named pipe (not compiled in by default)
* Cursor key mode switching (this fixes arrow keys in vim)
* Characters following an escape are passed to the underlying
application, this fixes ALT+<n> key combination as used by
irssi
* A hack to make the keypad sort of work with putty
* Mouse support is now compile time selectable
* Destroy clients when an IO-error occurs
* Correct signal handling (save and restore errno)
* Destroy clients cleanly, prevent zombies
* Added a note about copy & paste to the manual page (use
SHIFT while selecting or pasting text)
* Some source code formatting fixes
dvtm brings the concept of tiling window management, popularized by X11-window
managers like dwm to the console. As a console window manager it tries to make
it easy to work with multiple console based programs like vim, mutt, cmus or
irssi.
