* login should set some environment variables now
* init should start terminals as login shells, so --single doesn't really
mean "single user" any more, just sorta single terminal session
* system() should work now since esh now accepts -c; not that vim is
still going to be unhappy because it does crazy shit.
* Remove old login background [unused]
* Remove glock (graphical lock) [outdated]
* Have toolchain/activate set pkg-config variables
XXX: You will have unset PKG_CONFIG_LIBDIR to configure native
software if you have activated the toolchain! Otherwise, your
pkgconfig information will be incorrect.
* Fixed a bug in the compositor where we would give window stack order 0
to applications that didn't ask for it because depths were assigned by
wid which starts at 0. Make it start at 1 instead, no chance of an app
getting the wrong stack order (this shoudn't have any effect on how
things work with a login app, since it grabs wid 0; but if you boot
directly into a non-login environment, minor timing issues can do odd
things.)
* Also some minor updates to the toolchain in general.
* Replacing the old bitmap wallpaper (not the actual wallpaper, but the
terminal one) with a fresh new wallpaper as a PNG.
* A minor bug has been fixed in bim's write_file method
* The VL Gothic fonts have been updated (and the proportional version of
the font is now included)
* The README and TODO have both been updated to reflect current plans.
* Some applications now support UTF-8 text through the use of a very
simple decoder.
* The terminal uses a slow, but accurate method to determine the width
of a character the first time it is printed to the screen. Characters
are now stored in the terminal in two bytes, rather than one, and may
in the future be increased to 3 or 4 bytes to ensure support for
Unicode supplemental planes.
* A simple font-fallback method is employed in the applications that
support unicode that will make use of the VL Gothic fonts if the
DejaVu font does not have a character. No guarantees are made for
support of writing systems other than extended Latin and Japanese.
This update includes support for shadow passwords, stored in
/etc/master.passwd, as well as support for an /etc/passwd file
containing user/uid/full name/shell associations, which are used by the
shell to get your username for display purposes, as well as by whoami
for the same reason. The login tool does not yet select the right shell
though this is planned.
* root's password is `toor` (a throwback to older times)
* local's password is `local` (because it's obvious)
