dsl 43a4fc0e11 NetBSD curses gives the wrong data when you read curscr, need to
add a doupdate() so we save from the correct screen image.

Put default string into display buffer if long and input in box.
Scroll input text if longer than space on line.
2004-06-05 19:05:36 +00:00
dsl 556e606c59 Add a msg_row() function that returns the current screen row.
Allows sysinst to place menus below any header text.
Remove msg_*.1 man pages for all the functions (they are in the wrong place
are a fair waste of directory space).
2003-09-25 18:32:10 +00:00

dsl e2724ab4be Add support for reading messages from a text file - msg_file() and msg_string().
Use subwin() in msg_prompt_win() now libcurses is fixed.
Some KNF changes I seem to have forgotten to commit on their own :-(
2003-06-27 22:11:59 +00:00
dsl 62a063f96b Change msg_window() to return old window (temp buffer size isn't too important)
Change msg_promt_win() to create the window.
Number MSG_xxx from 1 (because 0 is NULL)
2003-06-10 17:24:17 +00:00
dsl 15cd94ddd8 Add msg_prompt_win() that will prompt in the specified window (instead of
the default one), and with a box around the window if >= 3 lines.
Stop the char delete from killingthe RHS of any box.
Make msg_string a noop for invalid strings (might be quoted text).

cgd a70b70f98d const-ify strings as appropriate, and convert message 'numbers' from
ints to 'msg's.  'msg' is currently typedef'd as 'const char *', but it'll
become more complex eventually.

cgd e8b59e21bb provide APIs (currently mostly undocumented) to print pre-formatted

cgd 3788a37507 add code to do dynamic message text layout, currently completely disabled. 1999-06-23 17:32:32 +00:00
cgd beba4bb3e5 replace lots of wclear()/wmove() calls with calls to msg_clear(). wmove()
to 0,0 was unnecessary because wclear() is documented to do that.  also,
the immediate wrefresh() done by msg_clear() means that if we can take
advantage of full screen clear sequence, we will.
1999-06-23 09:19:33 +00:00
cgd 82ecc5c4d7 don't bother calculated up MAXSTR, especially since the value calculated
is _bogus_ in the face of printf-like message formatting!  Instead,
calcuate the max size to format when the message window is set.  We know
that we'll never want to format more characters than can fit in the window.

cgd 5fa829d0bd teach the message prompting code to use control-U as line kill character.
(not really the right thing, but it already hard-codes backspace and
delete rather than using the terminal settings...)

cgd a8d01c6140 fix an off-by-one error (it would put up to max_chars plus NUL into the string,
which is one too many).  Also, msgc manual page says that 'def' and 'val'
can be the same string, but the way input was done (characters typed
went directly into val) meant that the contents of 'def' would be corrupted.
If the user backspaced to the beginning of the line and hit return (to accept
the default), they'd get a combination of the old default string and the
new characters they typed.  alloca() a buffer an put new input there to
avoid this problem.

veego 635cf4e57c It was a bad idea to call a function 'beep'.
Rename it to msg_beep to avoid conflicts with the new curses.h.
