When ELinks runs in an X11 terminal emulator (e.g. xterm), or in GNU
Screen, it tries to update the title of the window to match the title
of the current document. To do this, ELinks sends an "OSC 1 ; Pt BEL"
sequence to the terminal. Unfortunately, xterm expects the Pt string
to be in the ISO-8859-1 charset, making it impossible to display e.g.
Cyrillic characters. In xterm patch #210 (2006-03-12) however, there
is a menu item and a resource that can make xterm take the Pt string
in UTF-8 instead, allowing characters from all around the world.
The downside is that ELinks apparently cannot ask xterm whether the
setting is on or off; so add a terminal._template_.latin1_title option
to ELinks and let the user edit that instead.
Complete list of changes:
- Add the terminal._template_.latin1_title option. But do not add
that to the terminal options window because it's already rather
crowded there.
- In set_window_title(), take a new codepage argument. Use it to
decode the title into Unicode characters, and remove only actual
control characters. For example, CP437 has graphical characters in
the 0x80...0x9F range, so don't remove those, even though ISO-8859-1
has control characters in the same range. Likewise, don't
misinterpret single bytes of UTF-8 characters as control characters.
- In set_window_title(), do not truncate the title to the width of the
window. The font is likely to be different and proportional anyway.
But do truncate before 1024 bytes, an xterm limit.
- In struct itrm, add a title_codepage member to remember which
charset the master said it was going to use in the terminal window
title. Initialize title_codepage in handle_trm(), update it in
dispatch_special() if the master sends the new request
TERM_FN_TITLE_CODEPAGE, and use it in most set_window_title() calls;
but not in the one that sets $TERM as the title, because that string
was not received from the master and should consist of ASCII
characters only.
- In set_terminal_title(), convert the caller-provided title to
ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 if appropriate, and report the codepage to the
slave with the new TERM_FN_TITLE_CODEPAGE request. The conversion
can run out of memory, so return a success/error flag, rather than
void. In display_window_title(), check this result and don't update
caches on error.
- Add a NEWS entry for all of this.
Merge functions:
redraw_from_window(win) => redraw_windows(REDRAW_IN_FRONT_OF_WINDOW, win)
redraw_below_window(win) => redraw_windows(REDRAW_BEHIND_WINDOW, win)
Add REDRAW_WINDOW_AND_FRONT as a third possibility.
Then use that in update_hierbox_browser(), which previously used
window.next for this purpose, and in dialog-scrolling code,
which previously did not redraw the dialog box itself.
Replace almost all uses of enum connection_state with struct
connection_status. This removes the assumption that errno values used
by the system are between 0 and 100000. The GNU Hurd uses values like
ENOENT = 0x40000002 and EMIG_SERVER_DIED = -308.
This commit is derived from my attachments 450 and 467 to bug 1013.
Use it for the actual I/O only. Previously, defining CONFIG_UTF8 and
enabling UTF-8 used to force many strings to the UTF-8 charset
regardless of the terminal charset option. Now, those strings always
follow the terminal charset. This fixes bug 914 which was caused
because _() returned strings in the terminal charset and functions
then assumed they were in UTF-8. This reduction in the effects of
UTF-8 I/O may also simplify future testing.
straconcat reads the args with va_arg(ap, const unsigned char *),
and the NULL macro may have the wrong type (e.g. int).
Many places pass string literals of type char * to straconcat. This
is in principle also a violation, but I'm ignoring it for now because
if it becomes a problem with some C implementation, then so will the
use of unsigned char * with printf "%s", which is so widespread in
ELinks that I'm not going to try fixing it now.
This allows code to use document->cached instead of
find_in_cache(document->uri), thereby increasing the likelihood
of getting the correct cache entry.
This should fix Bug 756 - "assertion (cached)->object.refcount >= 0 failed"
after HTTP proxy was changed.
Patches for this were written by me and then later by Jonas.
This commit combines our independent implementations.
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.
Don't replace UTF-8 bytes with '*'. Probably there is need to do better
check what will be displayed.
Also get_current_link_title is no longer pretty and trivial. (o:
