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.
