* 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).
* 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'.

* 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
* 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.
