* 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
Added single file filesystem (sfs)
Added vfs_flags so library users can disable selected filesystems
Minor shuffling of functions so garbage collection works for library
and $(EXTFS_OUT) because the first must be installed from
$(srcdir) and the second from $(builddir).
Anyone knows why builddir gets defined to the top builddir and not to
the current builddir (in this case it gets defined to .../build/mc instead
of .../build/mc/vfs).
* 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.
* extfs.c, shared.c, tar.c: I changed semantics in my previous
patch - _get_path() now modifies strings passed to it. I thought
that I were carefull enough not to introduce bugs. You guessed it -
I was not. [Many tar_ and extfs_ functions modify strings passed
to them, but as they are only called from vfs layer, it does not
matter much.]
So I renamed function to alert everyone that semantics changed.
Fixed bugs in timestamping (and segfaults) when you entered tar
inside zip file or similar.
* vfs.c (mc_open): Die if the filesystem doesn't support open
1998-05-22 Miguel de Icaza <miguel@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* gwidget.c (x_create_input): Disable the use of the GNOME entries
for now, as they are very slow. We need to figure out what is
wrong with this.
With this change, dialog boxes close quickly instead of taking
ages to close.
* gscreen.c, gdesktop.c (file_popup_add_context, file_popup):
Share the context menu code in gdesktop.c and gscreen.c. The
desktop pop up menus now include all of the stuff that would have
appeared in the Panel.
* gdesktop.c (desktop_icon_remove): Remove the file associated
with this desktop entry if it is on the ~/desktop directory.
* 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.
* Makefile.in: Links to mad.c and mad.h were created wrong when
srcdir != builddir and directory depth to srcdir and builddir were
different (e.g. $srcdir=/src/mc and $builddir=/src/compile/mc)
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.
Now in wrap mode the End key and cursor up key behave much better
(e.g. when viewing binary files with lots of wrapped lines).
It's not perfekt but it's better than it used to be.
Tue Apr 28 06:52:24 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* gnome/gcmd.c (gnome_open_terminal): Changed my_system(1,...) to
my_system(EXECUTE_AS_SHELL,...)
Tue Apr 28 06:06:03 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* vfs/extfs.c (extfs_open, extfs_close): Changed my_system(1,...)
to my_system(EXECUTE_AS_SHELL,...), this fixes the broken copyin and
copyout in 4.1.32.
Tue Apr 28 06:11:08 1998 Norbert Warmuth <k3190@fh-sw.de>
* view.c (toggle_wrap_mode, toggle_hex_mode): Force recalculation
of bottom_first (we mustn't use an already calculated and cached
value because it is invalid for the new mode and the End key would
not move to the end of the file).
* configure.in: Renamed the option `--with-our-slang' to
`--with-included-slang' (this one looks better because we also
have an `--with-included-gettext').
Make the option `--with-ext2undel' recognice a given path.
* cmd.c (view_file_at_line): In plain view (F13) set the default
magic flag to zero in order to view the file content unprocessed
(esp. don't uncompress files if they are compressed). The
view_simple_cmd got broken when the default magic flag in view.c
was changed from 0 to 1.
* view.c (do_view_init, goto_line): Set wrap mode temporary off
to make goto line number work, i.e. `line number' now always means
line number in file and not line number on screen (in wrap mode
one long line wrapped once is displayed in two lines on the screen).
That's important when the viewer is invoked from the find file
dialog to display even in wrap mode approxiamtly the part of the
file where we found the content we searched for.
(move_forward2): In wrap mode lines were sometimes counted wrong
causing cursor up to move more than one line.
(move_backward2): Fixed the movement in wrap mode.
(change_viewer): Always re-init viewer when we have a filename,
i. e. if the viewer is invoked with simple_view_cmd then we can switch
with the F8 key between unprocessed file content und uncompressed
file content.
(view_init): re-init view also when magic flag was altered
* extfs/hp48: Added an usage summary. The HP48 external filesystem was
contributed by Christofer Edvardsen <ce@earthling.net>.
* subshell.c (init_subshell): Added ':q' to $cwd in the precmd for
tcsh. It prevents command and filename substitution (e.g. for
a directory named "[word] words")
* view.c (view_done): Set monitor off before deleting the view
file dialog.
* gnome/gtools.c (translate_gdk_keysym_to_curses): renamed KEY_BACKTAB
to KEY_BTAB (the name ncurses uses)
* gnome/Makefile.in: Install the icon-files and the layout-file from $srcdir.
* autogen.sh: added support for builddir != srcdir
* doc/Makefile.in: The manual pages are generated files and
located in the builddir and not in the srcdir.
* src/find.c (find_file): Use the same hotkey for the panelize button
as we use with the external panelize command.
* src/myslang.h: --with-ncurses didn't compile: renamed
KEY_BACKTAB to KEY_BTAB (the name ncurses uses)
* src/dlg.c (dlg_key_event): likewise
* src/tkmain.c (x_init_dlg): added dummy function to make it
compile
* vfs/Makefile.in, extfs/extfs.ini, extfs/hp48: New external
filesystem to view and copy files to/from the HP48.
Now it should be possible to build and install gnome edition with
builddir != srcdir.
