citing pkg/DESCR:
The ROOT system provides a set of OO frameworks with all the functionality
needed to handle and analyse large amounts of data in a very efficient way.
Having the data defined as a set of objects, specialised storage methods are
used to get direct access to the separate attributes of the selected objects,
without having to touch the bulk of the data. Included are histograming methods
in 1, 2 and 3 dimensions, curve fitting, function evaluation, minimisation,
graphics and visualization classes to allow the easy setup of an analysis
system that can query and process the data interactively or in batch mode.
Thanks to the builtin CINT C++ interpreter the command language, the scripting,
or macro, language and the programming language are all C++. The interpreter
allows for fast prototyping of the macros since it removes the time consuming
compile/link cycle. It also provides a good environment to learn C++. If more
performance is needed the interactively developed macros can be compiled using
a C++ compiler.
It's not yet perfect - pixmap/icon files are missing because these are
not part of the ROOT source distribution. Most things work anyway.
host names. Make this fail-safe in case host has no working domain name server.
Fixes "make show-downlevel" lossage, mentionned by Thomas Klausner
<wiz@danbala.ifoer.tuwien.ac.at> in private email.
o do not require $JB_PACKAGE to be set to a bug category; if $JB_PACKAGE
is not set, the default category "test" is used
o the above will also fix the error messages on nbftp occuring in
update-distfiles (hi veego!)
o make proper use of "DEINSTALL" and "MESSAGE" files so that installing
(and deinstalling) of jitterbug from pkgsrc/as binary makes no difference
o when echoing the defaults for JB_USER, JB_USERID, etc, use the actual
variables, not hardcoded values
o ownership of jitterbig.config fixed (@JB_USER@ instead of root)
denote that the package uses libXaw.
Introduce an XAW_TYPE definition, which is defined in /etc/mk.conf by
the user, to denote the type of libXaw to use. Possible values are:
standard, 3d and xpm.
Define USE_XAW in relevant Makefiles.
Set default XAW_TYPE in Makefiles which previously did a DEPENDS+= Xaw3d...
This means that package builds should not fail because of conflicting
Xaw packages being installed on machines.
with an additional "tty mode fix" over 3.9.3.
Whilst I'm here, make the PLIST handling a bit smarter, by using automatic
${DISTNAME} substitution. This means that the PLIST doesn't have to be
updated every time there's a new screen version, just to pull in the new
version number - it will be done automatically.
Changes include:
* real multiuser support
* split screen support
* hardstatus emulation support
* configurable window seperator and hardstatus strings
* permanent window seperator
* many new escapes
* logfile timestamps and flush timeout
* configurable breaktype
* other new commands:
* optional builtin telnet.
* remote detach and reattach change:
* support for history compaction
* optional Braille support.
Changes from 1.7.2 include:
if the X server fails to send X timer events, switch to synchronous file
writing to avoid data loss. Works around bug or incompatibility in XFree.

Changes -- other than bugfixes -- include:
Ported to new Tooltip and Handle widgets.
Resized all 16x16 pixmaps to 24x24.
Made Guile and Tcl opt-in as well, to be consistent with Python and ndbm.
Use load_pixmap in xcommon for the icons.
Updated file format documentation in fileformats.html.
Made A1 references the default.
Double click in colnum calls (fit-block-width).
Double click in rownum calls (fit-block-height).
Autofill by clicking and dragging in grid.
A few fixes in the Danish, French and Croatian message keys
Added more strings to Swedish message file.
Resize cell size using mouse inside the grid.
Change format of unallocated cells.
Redesigned list selector box.
Fixed enter-date and enter-time. They are still not as flexible as I would
like them to be, but at least they work now.
Added commands edit-applications and save-applications to the Tools menu,
so they can be used to customize the environment.
Interface to Gnuplot rewritten. Use form to get more flexibility. Updated
documentation somewhat.
Changed the paper selection, margin, header, footer et al code to the code
used by PW. No more properties for this purpose.
Fixed the backup-on-save code so it actually works.
Changed default header to &n and footer to &p.
Orientation and protection moved from the File menu to the paper selection
dialog.
Incorporated Victor Wagner's xls2csv utility. XLS format added in module
fileio_txt.c.
Incorporated the Xed text editor by Randolf Werner (evol@infko.uni-koblenz.de).
See xed subdirectory for details.
Redesigned file selector. Modified plotting plugin so it doesn't barf on
cells containing labels or strings (bug in plot.scm).
pages that are installed will be gzip-compressed, if MANZ is set, or
not if MANZ is not set. If the package uses bsd-style .mk files, the
variable MANCOMPRESSED_IF_MANZ should be set to a value of "yes" in
the package Makefile. This replaces the previous method of specific
inclusion of bsd.prefs.mk, followed by a check for MANZ and
conditional assignment of MANCOMPRESSED.
Add appropriate documentation, and change all necessary ocurrences in
package Makefiles.
sci builds multi-user data entry screens from a text template.
The data input into a screen is saved in a tab-delimited file.
The template may supply default values for a data entry field,
and fields may be marked as numeric data, or alphabetic only.
sci uses curses for screen control.
+ 1. Debian `.deb' packages are now supported as archives!
! 2. All paths containing `dir/..' are reduced.
! 3. Now arcive files are recognized by longer extensions
like `.tar.gz'. Result is proper handling of `.tar.gz'
and `.tar.bz2' archives.
+ 4. Added SEE Viewer filters. Now you can view gzipped files
and or add filters for viewing man pages etc.
+ 5. Added ready `panelizers' command to the RescanMenu
( key Ctrl+R ) Can be used as menu alternative to
external panelize option.
! 6. SEE screen draws improved and `< >' bug is fixed.
! 7. GetDirName function now allows dirs only.
+ 8. Added UserMenu ( key `U' ). User external commands
can be attached not to key but to this menu.
+ 9. Bash/Unix-style filename completion added!
-10. Bash/Unix-style completion is now default one!
+11. Now entries in the filelist can be moved ( see
ArrangeMenu/MoveEntry )
!12. Now VFU keeps current file postition after change
of sort order.
!13. Better preserve/copy mode/protection when copy/move
directory subtrees. ( from RO media for example )
!14. Fixed erase of own directories without `write'
permission/mode.
!15. More examples and comments added to the sampe
configuration file: vfu.conf.
build a binary package with this definition would fail as the PLIST is
not correct.
If a package's documentation is overwhelming, it should arguably be handled
in a separate pre-requisite documentation package.
Changes: Redesigned file selector, made plotting plugin not barf
on non-numeric cells, portability patches fixed a couple of broken
casts, new text editor (a heavily modified version of Xed), very
alpha importing of Excel documents using Victor Wagner's xls2csv,
improved recognition of very old Siag files and deallocate unused
rows at the bottom of a sheet.
In the vast majority of cases, nothing has changed (i.e. .tgz, .tar.gz,
and .tar.bz2).
EXTRACT_USING_PAX can be set as before.
For custom extractions, instead of using EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS,
EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS and EXTRACT_CMD, simply set EXTRACT_CMD to be the
command needed to decompress and extract the lements from the archive.
${DOWNLOADED_DISTFILE} can be used to reference the distfile(s).
e.g. for compressed shars, where previously there was:
EXTRACT_CMD= ${GZCAT}
EXTRACT_BEFORE_ARGS=
EXTRACT_AFTER_ARGS= |sh
now use:
EXTRACT_CMD= ${GZCAT} ${DOWNLOADED_DISTFILE} | ${SH}
