28/08/00
v1.4.5: - Another compatibilty patch (courtesy of Albert Chin-A-Young).
- New "--no-close" and "--allow-close" common options
implemented.
- New "--dselect" widget implemented.
- A wrapper for dialog and cdialog added to samples (written
from an idea of Luke Holden).
- "set-time" and "kernel" sample scripts added.
18/05/00:
v1.4.4: - Bug fix (core dump when a bad filename was passed to the
tailbox(bg)).
- The <number of items> parameter is now made useless (it is
only kept for compatobility with older Xdialog versions and
with (c)dialog's <list height> parameter): the list size is
automatically calculated from the parameter list following
--menubox, --checklist, --radiolist and --treview options.
- When a usage error is encountered (bad parameters), Xdialog
now prints on stderr a small error message before its usage.
- Xmessage sample script improved, set-time script added.
- "NEWS" file removed from the distribution (NEWS is now a link
to ChangeLog) and replaced by this "ChangeLog" file into the
binary RPM package).
13/05/00:
v1.4.3: - Bug fix (core dump when no size parameter was given for
the last common option in the command line).
- New "--wmclass" option implemented.
- The "Help" button is now available for the fselect widget.
- Print command made easily configurable at compile time.
10/05/00:
v1.4.2: - One more bug fixed (buffer overflow when showing Xdialog
usage) and many potential buffer overflow problems prevented
using some cleaner and fool proof code.
- The number of items in menubox, checklist and radiolist
widget is no more limited (it had a 100 items limit) and only
the needed memory is allocated (makes Xdialog eats less
memory).
09/05/00:
v1.4.1: Bug fix release (bug introduced in v1.4.0 that made Xdialog to
core-dump when an unknown option was encountered).
08/05/00:
v1.4.0: - Many code cleanup (a lot of re-written code) that makes
Xdialog smaller (and with a smaller memory foot-print).
- New "--print" option implemented;
- New auto-size feature; xdialog now also accepts "-geometry"
like size specification (e.g. 200x100+20-0 : the +20-0 will
be ignored though, only the size is actually taken into
account).
- textbox and editbox widgets now accepts stdin as their input
file.
- The focus is automatically set to the text entry in inputbox
and editbox.
- "--menu" is now known as "--menubox" (but menu may still be
used because the abreviated options are recognized) and
"--no-button" is now "--no-buttons".
- The "--no-buttons" transient option may now also be used with
the inputbox and the textbox.
- New "--stdout" and "--stderr" common options added.
- New "--calendar" and "--timebox" options/widgets added.
01/05/00:
v1.3.2: - Another little patch to autogen.sh (courtesy of Albert
Chin-A-Young) IOT allow Xdialog to compile without GCC.
- More code tidying.
- The percentage is now shown into the progress bar of the gauge
widget.
- When not empty, the <backtitle> label is now separated from
the <text> label by a separator.
- The "--no-tags" option is now taken into account by the menu
box widget.
29/04/00:
v1.3.1: - A bug (introduced in v1.3.0) dealing with the --help option
corrected.
- compatibility patch (courtesy of Albert Chin-A-Young) IOT allow
Xdialog to compile on non-Linux/GCC UNICES.
26/04/00:
v1.3.0: - Corrected a timeout routines related bug that sometimes made
Xdialog to core dump.
- Added the new editbox and range widgets.
- "--fixed-font" transient option added.
- New "--version" special option added.
- Closing a widget (from the window manager) now makes Xdialog
to return the 255 exit code.
This exit code is also returned when an error occurs.
- While still printed to stderr, the Xdialog usage is now also
displayed into a textbox.
- Some more code cleanup.
- Some cosmetic changes to the "yesno" and "gauge" widgets.
- Some more improvements to the samples scripts.
19/04/00:
v1.2.2: - Added the return/KP enter keypress events recognition for
the tail; this also cured a bug where pressing these keys
after selecting the tailbox text window with the mouse
could make Xdialog to core dump.
- Bug corrected (introduced in v1.2.1) in the samples/radiolist
script.
18/04/00:
v1.2.1: - inputbox now accepts the return key as the end of input.
