The configure script no longer recognizes "CONFIG_UTF_8=yes" lines
in custom features.conf files. They will have to be changed to
"CONFIG_UTF8=yes". This incompatibility was deemed acceptable
because no released version of ELinks supports CONFIG_UTF_8.
The --enable-utf-8 option was not renamed.
form_state.state_cell is no longer used for FC_TEXT, FC_PASSWORD, nor FC_FILE.
Instead, get_link_cursor_offset() computes the cell with utf8_ptr2chars
(a new function) or utf8_ptr2cells. This shouldn't slow down ELinks too
much, as it's done only for the selected link and only once per redraw.
The left side of a scrolled input field is always aligned at a
character boundary. The right side might not be.
The new comments describe how the members were apparently intended to
be used. However, the implementation does not actually work when
CONFIG_UTF_8 is defined, and the current semantics do not even allow
an efficient implementation of long (mostly scrolled out) strings.
The menu shows a list of all fields of a form, with the possibility to jump
right to that form field when selecting an entry. The menu text is the
basic form field label "Radio button", "Text field", etc. with the form
field name or alt text as the right menu text.
It introduces a new main action called link-form-menu with no default
binding.
Requested by Klaus Knopper, as a mean to improve accessibility for complex,
overloaded pages like ebay.com.
