- 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.

* vfs/vfs.c (vfs_timeout_handler): Guard from recursive invocation.
Sat Jan 9 19:13:28 1999 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/sfs.c (sfs_free): Fixed wrong linked list handling (head was
lost after the first iteration).
(sfs_getid): dito, return value was wrong.
* vfs/vfs.c (vfs_parse_filedate): If the date is less than 6 months
in the past, it is shown without year. In this case MC assumed
the current year which is wrong from Jan to Jun.
* sfs.c (sfs_nothingisopen): Assume for now it's always save to free
this filesystem and delete temporary files. This needs further
investigation.
* tar.c: deleted unused empty struct tar_super.
Thu Dec 31 08:40:44 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* direntry.c: Split fd_usage into fd_usage and ino_usage. fd_usage
was used for external and internal reference count. This was wrong
because we can free resources taken up by the vfs as soon as the
external reference count (now fd_usage) is zero. The internal
reference count (ino_usage) mustn't matter because the vfs has to
clean up itself in the correct order.
* vfs/direntry.c (vfs_s_new_inode): Moved initialization of st_ino
and st_dev from vfs_s_default_stat.
(vfs_s_default_stat): initialize st_ino and st_dev to zero
* vfs/tar.c (tar_open_archive): Make a new MEDATA->rdev for every
new archive.
* mountlist.c: Define xBSD on FreeBSD.
* doc/mc.sgml, mc.1.in: Deleted obsolete information about
tar_gz_memlimit. Partially rewrote the section about the
Virtual FS.. configuration dialog.
* main.c (parse_an_arg): New function, popt callback. Option
parsing in gmc was broken. The gnome*_init_with_popt_table free
the option tables and gmc tried to use the option tables later.
* main.c (handle_args): In the Gnome edition don't parse the
options a second time.
* boxes.c (configure_vfs), setup.c: Deleted obsolete options.
tar.gz files are now always unzipped to a temporary file on disk.
* gnome/layout: Deleted obsolete widgets from the Virtual FS configuration
dialog.
* vfs/tar.c: Deleted global variable tar_gzipped_memlimit.
Mon Dec 21 14:28:55 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* filenot.c (my_mkdir_rec): Someone broke this function completely by deleting
a line. Funny things happen if you use an already freed pointer.
Improved error handling: try to make directories recursivly until
mkdir succeeds or fails with errno != ENOENT. Now you will get the
correct error message when you don't have permission to create a
directory.
* mountlist.c: Deleted function prototypes for strdup and strstr,
they might conflict with definitions in the system header files.
* screen.c (Xtry_to_select): Don't select a similar file when
"name" can't be found in the panel (when deleting files the
selection jumpped from the deleted "file" to a directory which
started with the same character as "file", annoying).
Strip known vfs suffixes from "name" before trying to select
(I think Timur made this suggestion a few months ago). Know the
vfs is mature enough to do this.
* vfs/vfs.c (vfs_strip_suffix_from_filename): New function which strips
known vfs suffixes from a filename and returns a malloced string
which has to be freed. Possible improvement: strip vfs suffix from
last path component.
* vfs/extfs/*: added "umask 077" to every script.
* fish.c (FISH_OP): changed snprintf to g_snprintf, as glib is
used anyway.
* xdirentry.h (LINK_NO_FOLLOW):
* tar.c (read_header):
* direntry.c (vfs_s_resolve_symlink):
(vfs_s_inode_from_path):
(vfs_s_open): renamed NO_FOLLOW and FOLLOW to LINK_NO_FOLLOW and
LINK_FOLLOW resp. to avoid problems on solaris, where FOLLOW and
NO_FOLLOW are defined in an enum.
* vfs.h (ELAST): define it to 300, if not already defined, thats a
bad hack, but what can we do....
- GNOME edition now compiles without any trace of the text mode
dependencies.
- We no longer link with libraries we do not use (crypt, gpm), this
fixes the recent bug reports.
- More tree updates, enhancements.
Miguel.
* vfs/vfs.c (vfs_parse_ls_lga): ignore trailing + in permission string
which indicate a file with extented attributes (ACL)
Wed Nov 25 22:16:19 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* src/cmd.c (dirsizes_cmd): Quote characters with a special meaning
when passing it to du.
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.
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.

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, Make.common.in: Split CPPFLAGS into CPPFLAGS and
MCCPPFLAGS. The last one contains references to variables which are
not available in every Makefile.in (namely intl/Makefile.in). Without
the split `-I ' was passed to the compiler (the compiler on DU 4.0
interprets -I as "don't search include files in /usr/include").
Mon Oct 26 00:38:30 1998 Norbert Warmuth <nwarmuth@privat.circular.de>
* vfs/Make-mc.in: added xdirentry.h to VFSHDRS
* Added norwegian translation and some minor tweaks to make it
link properly (I'm not sure it is correct, but I'm sure someone
will point that out if its not ;-).)
