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 ;-).

* 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.
* tk/Makefile.in: added findme.o to LOBJS and filegui.o to OOBJS
* autogen.sh: replaced "cat *.m4" with a call to aclocal. Concatenate
mc-aclocal.m4 and gettext.m4 to acinclude.m4. The other way round
would have been to add three more m4 files to the replaced cat line
(including cond.m4 from automake-1.3b).
Fixed OBJ_DIR handling.
* deleted glib.m4 which isn't needed any longer
* cvsignore: added acinclude.m4
* Makefile.in (OOBJS): Do not link ../src/filegui.o. GMC does not
link right now, but I guess I'll add stubs until we finish with
the dialog boxes.
* gdnd.c: #include <sys/types.h>
* Makefile.in (checklinks): Fix sourcelinks -> maksourcelinks typo.
Ok, finally splitted the GUI code that dealt with the file operations into
a separate file. It is now possible to write a native Gtk version of this.
Until the Gtk-native version is done, the code in mc/gnome/ is linking with
filegui.c.

* panel.h (WPanel): Instead of the "#ifdef GNOME" mess in the
WPanel structure, we now have a single opaque pointer to UI data,
called port_ui. GUI stuff specific to each port should be here.
This is a work in progress.
* Makefile.in: Removed gtrans.c from the list of sources.
* gdesktop-icon.c: #ifdef cleanups.
* gscreen.c (panel_create_file_list): Doh. Return the scrolled
window, not the clist.
* gdnd.c (get_action): Implement the DnD actions menu.
1998-11-10 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* setup.c: Removed the icons_snap_to_grid and
want_transparent_{icons,text} options.
1998-11-09 Federico Mena Quintero <federico@nuclecu.unam.mx>
* gdnd.c: New file that handles all the DnD stuff. Mainly used to
clean up gdesktop.c.
* gscreen.c (panel_icon_list_drag_data_received): Use
gdnd_drop_on_directory().
(CLIST_FROM_SW): Added this macro to fetch the clist from the
scrolled window in panel->list.
(panel_create_file_list): Create a scrolled window and put the
clist inside it. This is required per the new clist API.
(panel_configure_file_list): Use the scrolled window's adjustment.
(panel_file_list_size_allocate_hook): Use the scrolled window
instead of the clist.
(panel_file_list_compute_lines): Use the scrolled window instead
of the clist.
(panel_file_list_configure_contents): Use the scrolled window
instead of the clist.
(panel_create_file_list): Do the DnD setup here, not in the
realization callback.
(x_create_panel): Do not realize the panel explicitly.
(panel_create_pixmaps): Create the pixmaps using imlib instead of
Gdk.
* gdesktop.c: Now desktop icons are stored in the layout_slots
array. We need to know which icons are in which slots.
(unselect_all): Use the layout_slots array.
(desktop_icon_info_place): Append the icon to the list in the
proper slot.
(desktop_icon_info_new): Initialize the position and slot fields
in the desktop icon info structure.
(desktop_icon_info_free): Remove the icon from its slot.
(desktop_destroy): Destroy the layout slots and the icons
properly.
(remove_from_slot): New convenience function to remove an icon
from the slot it is in.
(get_icon_snap_pos): Do a bit nicer snapping by really using the
closest slot.
Added a last_selected_icon variable to keep track of the icon that
was last selected, for shift+click selections.
(select_icon): Finish selection semantics and clean up. Now it is
nice and simple and complete.
(select_range): New function that handles range selections.
* gdesktop-icon.h (DesktopIcon): Added a child item for stippling
the icon when it is selected.
* gdesktop-icon.c (desktop_icon_select): Show/hide the stippling
as appropriate.
* gdesktop.c (desktop_icon_info_event): Handler for events on
desktop icons.
(select_icon): New function that handles icon selection based on
mouse clicks and modifier keys.
* gdesktop.c (struct desktop_icon_info): Added a type field to the
structure. It specifies the type of icon (file, directory), and
is used to determine the DnD and menu behavior.
* gdesktop.c: We are now using the new desktop icon code. It is
not yet complete, but what is there does work. We have icon
creation, auto-layout and snapping. Next step is drag and drop
and popup menus.
* glayout.c: #ifdef out the stuff that uses the old desktop code.
I will replace it gradually.
* gmain.c: Likewise.
* gscreen.c: Likewise.
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.
