are almost complete (i.e. to handle all nitty gritty cases), but they
seem to be working OK right now. SM should be much more stable now.
Please tell me if you find any weird behavior - Federico
1999-03-30 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* gdesktop-icon.c (desktop_icon_realize): Remove the
WM_CLIENT_LEADER property from icon windows so that window
managers will not store SM information for them.
* gnome-open-dialog.c: Added missing #includes.
* gdesktop-init.c (desktop_init_at): Removed an unused variable.
* gdesktop.h: Added some missing prototypes.
* gmain.h: Added some missing prototypes.
* Makefile.in: Added gsession.[ch] to the list of sources.
* gmain.c (create_panels): Consider whether we have a CORBA server
and session management.
* gdesktop.c: #include "gdesktop-init.h"
* gdesktop.c: Added a missing cast to GNOME_DIALOG.
* gmain.c (create_panels): Removed the run_desktop global

include its unique ID.
* gsession.[ch]: New file with the functions that deal with
session management.
* glayout.c (gnome_exit): Use session_set_restart().
* gcorba.c (corba_init): Now returns an int with an error value.
(corba_init_server): Initialize the server properly.
Fixed all the object implementation code.
(corba_create_window): New function used to create a window with
the CORBA server.
* gmain.c (gnome_check_super_user): Now the check for running as
root is done here. There should be no GUI code in src/.
1999-03-30 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* dlg.c (dlg_run_done): Do not call the callback of a NULL current
widget.
* setup.h: Added missing prototype for setup_init().
* filegui.c (check_progress_buttons): Added a missing return
value.
* dlg.c (remove_widget): Added a missing return value.
* main.c: Removed the global directory_list variable.
Removed the main_corba_register_server() function.
* main.h: Removed the global run_desktop variable.
* panel.h: Now the panel structure has a unique numerical ID used
for session management.
* screen.c (panel_new): Maintain a unique ID for each panel.
* main.c (maybe_display_linksdir): Handle display of the desktop
init dir here.
(main): Call gnome_check_super_user().
(init_corba_with_args): Call corba_init_server().
* main.c (init_corba_with_args): Do CORBA initialization here. Also
removed the global force_activation option.
1999-03-30 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* vfs.c (vfs_add_current_stamps): Only do stamping of the panels
if they exist.
* mcserv.c: #include <sys/wait.h>

variable.
* utilvfs.c (vfs_split_url): Fix NULL <-> 0 confusion when
comparing characters.
* ftpfs.c (retrieve_dir): Removed unused variable dot_dot_found.
* extfs.c (extfs_init): Assign `key' to c, not `&key'.
Basically, I had to setup an ssh tunnel to be able to use CVS. After
5 hours trying to get the damn thing to cvs update it was clear to me
why the .es people do not like to use the gnome cvs.
We really need a tunnel for .es hackers (as they have excellent connectivity
to the rest of Europe, they are just routed trough a 2 byte link to the US).
1999-03-22 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* treestore.c (process_special_dirs): Free memory here.
Fix test: Skip only "." and "..", before it could skip "?.".
1999-03-22 David Martin <dmartina@mailexcite.com>
* wtools.c (real_input_dialog_help): Do a strncmp with the lenght
of th same translated "Password:" string.
1999-03-22 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* glayout.c (create_new_menu_from): closedir after running.
1999-03-20 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* gnome-file-property-dialog.c (apply_metadata_change): Fix the
test for setting the icon. It was being done incorrectly and thus
it was never possible to change the icon.
* glayout.c (gnome_launch_mime_editor): Add mime-type-edit command
to the menu: this launches mime-type-capplet
1999-03-22 David Martin <dmartina@mailexcite.com>
* ftpfs.c: Internationalize the messages that are displayed as
hints.
1999-03-22 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* extfs.c (extfs_init): Fix the code here: If the key is empty or
only contains a new line, C would be pointing into an invalid location.
* src/util.c (strip_password): Extented to find the url in the first
parameter. The second parameter tells whether it should search the
url (indicated by known prefixes) in the first parameter or whether
the first parameter is a url without a prefix ("ftp://", "/#ftp:",
"/#mc:").
* src/main.c (directory_history_add): Strip the password (if any) from
the freshly added value.
* src/widget.c (push_history): ditto. There's a ugly special casing
necessary for the network and ftp link dialogs (urls are entered
with out prefix).
* src/widget.c (history_put): Restrict read and write access to the
history file to the owner (Just in case I forgot to strip passwords
somewhere).
Mon Feb 1 19:32:12 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/ftpfs.c (insert_dots): renamed from insert_dot. We have to
insert ".." as well or directories from ftp servers which don't
list "." and ".." are displayed with an additional "/".
Sun Jan 31 20:04:13 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/vfs.c (vfs_strip_suffix_from_filename): Whoever replaces every
occurance of 0 with NULL should stop this stupidy. And replacing '\0'
with NULL is plain wrong!!. Reverted this replacement.
* vfs/ftpfs.c (load_no_proxy_list): ditto
Fri Jan 29 22:55:56 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* slang/slang.h: renamed to slang-mc.h
* slang/Makefile.in: delete slang.h on "make clean"
* configure.in: link slang/slang-mc.h to slang/slang.h when the
included slang is used. Problem was that MC's slang.h was used
when we compiled with an already installed SLang and the systems
header file were included with <slang/slang.h>.
Unfortunatly I can't use AC_LINK_FILES to make the links because
if we needn't make any links AC_LINK_FILES makes a link from
srcdir to top_builddir (builddir != srcdir).
Temporary add $LGPM to $LIBS when checking for the resizeterm
and keyok functions (ncurses might be linked against GPM).
Substitude PACKAGE (intl/Makefile makes use of it)
Sun Jan 31 19:42:47 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* gnome/Makefile.in (install_mx): make it work with srcdir != builddir
(gmc.gnorba is located in $srcdir)
* src/hotlist.c (add_new_entry_input, add_new_group_input): Make the
quick_widget arrays static and various changes needed because they
are now static. add_widgets_i18n recalculates button positions
which get lost when the quick_widget arrays are non static.
* src/screen.c (to_buffer): nul terminate string when using strncpy
* src/setup.c: Save and restore new option ftpfs_first_cd_then_ls.
Sun Jan 31 19:57:24 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/ftpfs.c (insert_dot): New function. Insert a "." into the linked
list. Stat'ing the root directory of a ftpfs fails if the dot is
missing.
(retrieve_dir): insert "." into the linked list if the ftp server
haven't send it.
Sun Jan 31 19:50:24 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* The following changes make ftpfs work with a remote AmiTCP
server are the result of somehow longish EMail debugging session. I
don't know any public server of this kind but I was told the
combination Unix/Amiga boxes are often used in intranets.
* vfs/ftpfs.c (translate_path): New function. Translate a Unix path,
i.e. MC's internal path representation (e.g. /somedir/somefile) to
a path valid for the remote server. Every path transfered to the
remote server has to be mangled by this function right prior to
sending it. Currently only Amiga ftp servers are handled in a
special manner.
* vfs/ftpfs.c (various places): use translate_path
* vfs/ftpfs.c (login_server): Assume we have to mangle pathnames if
the greatings string from the server contains the word Amiga. If
this assumption is wrong I have to find another way to turn on
path translation.
* vfs/ftpfs.c (ftpfs_get_current_directory): Prepend a leading slash
if it is missing. MC needs it as seperator between hostname and
path in its internal url representation.
Wed Jan 27 03:09:48 1999 Timur I. Bakeyev <mc@bat.ru>
* All around the source: Changed copy_strings() to g_strconcat(). Modi-
fy last parameter in concat_dir_and_file() to "" - to prevent stack from
disbalancing.
- SFS-based file systems now work on GNOME edition, I was
not waiting for child process to finish decompressing.
- VFS code cleanup. I am going to eventually get rid of all
the macro-mania that has creeped into the vfs layer.
Miguel
exaggerated because I only saw two complaints). I added the old method
to resolve symlinks and made it the default. When someone complains about
4.5.2 we can change defaults at will ;-).
Mon Nov 23 21:19:43 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/ftpfs.c (resolve_symlink_with_ls_options): that's resolve_symlinks
we used up to release 4.1.35. It uses LIST -lLa to get symlink stats.
(resolve_symlink_without_ls_options): that's resolve_symlinks
we used in release 4.1.36 and 4.5.[01]. It gets symlink stats from the
directory cache fetching directories if necessary. We got some
complaints about slower ftpfs in the above releases. Now this methode
is no longer the default methode to resolve symbolic links. It is still
needed for ftp servers which don't understand the LIST -lLa command.
(resolve_symlink): Dispatch between the two methods to
resolve symlinks.
Documentation update.
1998-10-30 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* fish.c (command): Replace vnsprintf with g_strdup_vprintf. This
is both safe and more correct, as there is no limit on the
pathname.
* ftpfs.c (command): Same as above.
* util-alone.c (print_vfs_message): Same as above.
1998-10-30 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* layout.c (print_vfs_message): Use g_snprintf instead of
vnsprintf.
* configure.in (subshell): Don't define inline to be empty
when compiling with non-gcc compiler. AC_C_INLINE (invoked in
AM_GETTEXT_GNU) already defines inline if necessary.
Thu Oct 22 20:41:16 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* panelize.c (do_external_panelize): Not zeroing some fields
in cpanel led sometimes to segfaults.
Thu Oct 22 20:30:28 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/ftpfs.c (resolve_symlink, retrieve_dir): Don't timeout and
free dcache while resolving symlinks (i.e. don't free some
pointers which are in use by resolve_symlink).
MC now depends on glib (currently only the assertions are used).
VFS structure declaration fixes.
Uses the new icon list (it is dog slow, need to fix this tonight at home).
* setup.c: save and restore new global variable/option
ftp_use_unix_list_options
Tue Sep 15 20:31:32 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* ftpfs.c (ftp_use_unix_list_options): New global variable/option.
If true we try to use 'LIST -la <path>'. When it fails we use the
two commands 'CWD <path>' and 'LIST' instead.
(resolve_symlink): rewritten. Don't get a second directory listing
with `LIST -lLa'. Instead use the cache to get the file stat of
symbolic links. If the directory the symlink points to isn't
already in the cache the directory listing will be fetched and
stored in the directory cache (without resolving symlinks
recursively).
The new method to resolve symlinks is faster if symlinks
the same directory or the directory the symlink points to
is already in the cache.
This function was small and nice until I discovered that it was
broken for symlinks to symlinks. Now it looks ugly and perhaps I
will revert it to use "LIST -lLa" again. With a fast connection it
doesn't matter which methode we use but with a slow connection I
wouldn't hesitate to burn more cpu cycles on the client side.
(retrieve_dir): Added parameter to tell whether to resolve
symlinks (don't resolve symlinks in directory listings retrieved
while resolving symlinks).
When we don't get a directory listing with 'LIST -la <path>' then
try to get it with `CWD <path>; LIST'.
Tue Sep 15 20:27:29 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de
* ftpfs.c (login_server): s/ftpfs_get_host/my_get_host/
(retrieve_file_start2): Don't create target file O_EXCL, in
copy_file_file we check existance of the target file and know
that we want to truncate it (this change was already done a
while back but it was reverted with the vfs-split).
Tue Sep 15 20:15:42 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* ftpfs.h (struct connection): added boolean which indicates that
the ftp server doesn't unterstand Unix ls options
* ftpfs.h (struct dir): added enum to store symlink status of the
in memory directory cache (directory has no symbolic links;
symbolic links but not yet resolved; symbolic links which are resolved)
Tue Sep 15 20:02:08 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* shared_ftp_fish.c, fish.c: updated references to retrieve_dir to
honour the additional boolean parameter
* main.c (translate_url_to_new_syntax): translate the common
ftp url syntax to the syntax used by the new vfs code.
(_do_panel_cd): First translate the path if necessary. This makes
it possible to enter ftp://host on the commandline and in the
directory hotlist. We might need to move the translation code
to the vfs layer if there are other places where we want to enter
ftp://host.
Mon Jun 1 16:00:19 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* vfs/ftpfs.c (ftpfs_fill_names): use right character to seperate
prefix and username
to blame first when it breaks something.
Mon Jun 1 12:33:08 1998 Alexander V. Lukyanov <lav@yars.free.net>
* configure.in: allowed to use `configure --with-included-gettext'
on systems (like solaris) that have their own libintl
Mon Jun 1 14:19:20 1998 Bakeyev I. Timur <timur@comtat.kazan.ru>
* vfs/vfs.c (parse_ls_lga): allow a bit wider range of listings.
* vfs/vfs.c (is_time, is_year): new functions
Mon Jun 1 12:47:50 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* vfs/ftpfs.c (ftpfs_forget): Use the new ftpfs prefix.
The VFS code can now be used by other applications (if you compile the
libvfs.a target and link against this).
Syntax has changes internally from the url-like syntax to a new syntax
that does not have ambiguities. A default conversor for the new syntax
will be provided in the future, also dealing with the user ~/.mc/ext files
is currently in a non-optimal state.
Keep an eye on this mailing list.
Miguel.
* edit/syntax.c: Disable debug messages on stderr.
* edit/edit.h: Added missing _()
Sun May 10 14:51:03 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* ftpfs.c (__ftpfs_chdir): CWD command wasn't sent at all. This
optimation is wrong because for directories containing spaces we
have to "CWD <pathname>" and "LIST -la" instead of
"LIST -la <pathname>".
I implemented a different optimation. Now ftpfs_chdir only stores
the new working directory and sets a flag. __ftpfs_chdir is called
when we really want to change the directory on the ftp server.
(resolve_symlink): Log the directory listing to the logfile.
* ftpfs.h (struct ftpfs_connection): Added a (per connection)
cwd_defered flag.
Sun May 10 13:27:50 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* widget.c (handle_char): Don't try to to delete default text in
input widget more than once. Right after MC's start copy_filename
(ESC Enter) failed because a flag wasn't cleared while characters
were stuffed into the commandline (Andrej reported this bug).
* main.c (copy_readlink): usr mc_readlink instead of readlink
* file.c: Changed default for the copy/move option "dive into
subdir if exists" to off (note: this was only possible after the
change in setup.c).
(copy_dir_dir): Activated the previously uncommented code which
implements "Dive into subdirs". Even when there's no case where we
actually would like that behaviour it is a documented feature.
Though I don't wanted to change the default behavour. Hence the
option change.
(file_mask_defaults): set dive_into_subdirs
(file_mask_dialog): Fix for debian Bug #20727: Move operation with
"[ ] Dive into subdir if exists" and destination filename not
wildcarded. If destination is an existing directory then files
will be moved into this directory. If destination is not an
existing directory then src file will be renamed (one file
selected) or an error will be displayed (more than one file
selected).
(file_mask_dialog): made the option "Using shell patterns" local
to the current copy/move operation, i.e. this option is always
initialized with the global options's value. Previously it affected
the global Options/Configuration/shell Patterns.
Another possiblilty would be to make the global option a default
option on startup and keep changes in the copy/move dialog
(without saving these changes with save setup).
* setup.c: Don't save and load options which can be changed
outside the options menu. For example I don't like that
preserve_uid_gid and dive_into_subdirs from the copy/move dialog
are saved and restored (strange, what about the other options from
this dialog?).
It would be much cleaner to make these option read-only. This way
one could edit ~/.mc/ini to provide default option setting on
startup and "Save setup" wouldn't have side effects outside the
option's menu.
Sun May 10 13:24:20 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* doc/mc.1.in, doc/mc.sgml, mc.hlp: Updated to reflect new default
for dive into subdirs.
O_EXCL in retrieve_file_start2 then I will find a different fix.
Mon May 4 10:27:49 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* ftpfs.c (retrieve_file_start2): Don't create target file O_EXCL,
in copy_file_file we check existance of the target file and know
that we want to truncate it.
Mon May 4 10:21:31 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* file.c (copy_file_file): Schedule deletion of short target file
only when we created or truncated the target file and not already
when we decided to overwrite an existing file.
* vfs/ftpfs.c (changetype): Removed the hack which always forced
sending the command "TYPE I" when changing to binary transfer mode
was requested even when MC thought the connection was already in
binary mode (bucket->isbinary == 1). The correct fix is now in
login_server.
* vfs/ftpfs.c (login_server): Set the transfer mode stored in
the bucket to UNKNOWN (the bucket might be reused and the old
transfer mode isn't valid any longer).
* screen.c (panel_key): Cleanup: deleted if-clause with -1 (EV_NONE)
which isn't delivered to widgets by the dialog manager; always
return 1 when key was handled; removed the function keys from the
panel's keymap (the function keys are always handled by the
buttonbar); don't eat characters below ' ' (C-l and Shift-F3 now
work even when quick search was started); characters between 32 and
255 start quick search if there is no commandline (no C-s necessary
to start search).
* tree.c (tree_key): likewise
