-- Thomas E. Dickey <dickey@invisible-island.net>
This version of dialog was originally from a Debian snapshot. I've done this
to it:
+2013/05/23
+ + modify ifdef in arrows.c to work around packages which use the
+ wide-character ncursesw headers with the ncurses library (report
+ by Aleksey Cheusov).
+ + correct workaround for xterm alternate-screen to work with/without
+ the fix made in ncurses that makes putp() always write to the
+ standard output (Debian #708829).
+ + improve limit-checks for checklist, in case the dialog is resized
+ (report by Ilya A Arkhipov).
+ + add --last-key option (adapted from patch by Jordi Pujol, Debian
+ #697607).
+
+2013/03/15
+ + update zh_TW.po, add an.po from
+ http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/
+
+2012/12/30 - release 1.2
+ + improve some older changelog entries to help with HTML'izing content.
+ + various fixes/improvments for scrollbar appearance.
+ + add mappings for some equivalent options provided by whiptail;
+ add configure option --disable-whiptail to allow suppressing these.
+ + add configure option --disable-Xdialog2 to allow suppressing the
+ newer features, i.e., for cdialog 1.2
+ + add --no-items option, for consistency.
+ + add --no-tags option, like Xdialog.
+ + add buildlist, rangebox and treeview dialogs, like Xdialog.
+ + remove obsolete workaround for ncurses 4.2 scrolling in checklist
+ and menubox.
+ + improve dialog_helpfile() by preventing it from showing extra buttons
+ (suggested by xDog Walker).
+ + correct logic in formbox's scroll_next() function (report by xDog
+ Walker).
+ + fix a case with inputbox widget where preset input text is not shown
+ until moving the cursor within the text (report by xDog Walker).
+ + handle SIGCHLD in dialog_prgbox() to eliminate defunct processes
+ (report by xDog Walker).
+ + improve the way "hotkeys" are assigned to widget buttons by checking
+ if a given key has already been used in the row of buttons (Debian
+ #684933).
+ + amend fix for --trace parsing from 2012/07/03, which sometimes
+ skipped a parameter (report by xDog Walker).
+ + drop copismall and install files from samples, which were essentially
+ nonfunctional.
+ + correct secondary border colors in samples/slackware.rc and
+ samples/whiptail.rc
+ + update gl.po, add ia.po from
+ http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/
+ + fix various issues reported by coverity scan.
+ + miscellaneous configure script fixes/updates:
+ + require autoconf 2.52+patches
+ + support --datarootdir option
+ + check for clang compiler
+ + check for tinfo library when looking for ncurses
+ + add 3rd parameter to AC_DEFINE for autoheader
+ + remove unused macros from aclocal.m4
+ + update config.guess, config.sub
+
+2012/07/06
+ + modify samples/setup-tempfile to work with Tru64's shell.
+ + modify inputmenu sample scripts to make them more portable:
+ + use "id" rather than "$GROUPS", use sed to work with Solaris.
+ + use sed to split-up the rename results to work with HPUX.
+ + fix regression in msgbox (ArchLinux #30574)
+
+2012/07/03
+ + modify prgbox widget to work with --extra-button, etc.
+ + add case values to several widgets to allow for mouse-clicks with
+ "--extra-button" and "--help-button" additions.
+ + correct timebox widget's exit code for "--extra-button" when handing
+ the "enter" key.
+ + modify msgbox widget to honor "--extra-button".
+ + corrected processing of "--trace" option, which did not update the
+ index into command-line to point past its value.
+ + add a check in dialog program for valid characters used in option,
+ e.g., to generate an error if a script attempts to add option value
+ using "=" rather than with whitespace.
+ + add new command-line option --default-button and library function
+ dlg_default_button() to retrieve the value set by the option
+ to provide a way to set the default button directly rather than
+ by combining --nook, etc. (patch by Zoltan Kelemen).
+ + amend include of unctrl.h to apply only to the case where curses.h
+ is included, to avoid conflict of ncurses' unctrl.h with a system
+ implementation (report by Martin Roedlach)
+ + add limit-check to dlg_toupper() in non-wide curses mode to work
+ when non-character values such as arrow-key codes are passed to
+ it (patch by Zoltan Kelemen).
+ + override timeout value, e.g., as set via --timeout command-line
+ option in pause widget because that interferes with pause's behavior
+ (report by Jan Spitalnik).
+ + modify samples/inputmenu* to allow ":" in renamed text (report by
+ Andreas Stoewing).
+ + modify double-quoting to make it more consistent, i.e., checklist
+ output is quoted only when needed. This fixes the case where
+ single-quotes were used whether or not needed, but also modifies
+ older checklist behavior for double-quoting which always added those
+ (Debian #663664).
+ + correct exit-code used in inputmenu for "rename" button (Debian
+ #673041, forwarded from Ubuntu #333909, patch by Lebedev Vadim).
+ + update el.po and hr.po from
+ http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/
+ + use checkbashisms to clean up sample scripts.
+
+2012/02/15
+ + modify menubox.c to use the same improvement as in checklist.c
+ + improve auto width computation for checklist widget by using
+ dlg_calc_list_width as in the non-auto case (Edho Arief).
+ + eliminate some bashisms in the sample scripts (Pedro Giffuni).
+ + makefile fixes from FreeBSD ports (Li-Wen Hsu):
+ + make --with-package option of configure script work.
+ + get LIBTOOL_VERSION from configure script, needed by
+ ${LIBTOOL_VERSION} in LIBTOOL_CREATE (LIB_CREATE in configure and
+ aclocal.m4)
+ + update cs.po and sr.po from
+ http://translationproject.org/latest/dialog/
+ + updated configure script macros, improving CF_XOPEN_SOURCE among
+ other fixes.
+
+2011/10/20
+ + fix --analyze warnings for clang versions 2.8, 2.9.
+ + add configure check for lint program.
+ + add check in dlg_getc() in case its window is freed as a side effect
+ of removing callbacks.
+ + fix logic in freeing subwindows (report by xDog Walker).
+ + fix a regression in logic distinguishing between inputmenu and menu
+ widgets (report by xDog Walker).
+ + minor fixes to library manpage.
+
+2011/10/18
+ + modify header-sh.in to work around limit on sed script length on
+ HPUX.
+ + add a special case of parameter parsing for "--trace" to the
+ initialization done before calling init_dialog(), to allow users to
+ capture the initial state of the parameter list before any options
+ are processed and removed. This is only done if "--trace" is the
+ first option, otherwise it is handled in the common options as before
+ (report by xDog Walker).
+ + modify samples/testdata-8bit, discarding $1 from the parameter list
+ if it was used, so that the source'ing scripts can consistently use
+ "$@" to insert parameters before the widget, e.g., as an alternative
+ to using $DIALOGOPTS (report by xDog Walker).
+ + modify treatment of function pointers in menubox.c, make
+ dlg_renamed_menutext() and dlg_dummy_menutext() visible to library
+ users (request by xDog Walker).
+ + add dlg_count_real_columns(), use to modify centering for "--hline"
+ text to account for "\Z"s (report by xDog Walker).
+ + improve check in dlg_draw_arrows2() for conflict between the window
+ title and up-arrow marker to take into account that the given window
+ may not be the top-level window of the widget.
+ + change width of page up/down mouse areas in fselect panes to use the
+ full width of the panes rather than only the portion from the left
+ margin to the up/down arrow.
+ + add/use dlg_draw_box2() and dlg_draw_bottom_box2() to use the
+ secondary borders.
+ + modify rc-file read/write to accept/generate color values that refer
+ to previously-processed items in the color table. This reduces the
+ number of distinct colors that must be specified to set up a color
+ scheme.
+ + add color table entries for secondary borders, i.e., the ones that
+ are normally drawn with the dialog's text-colors (Debian #641168).
+ + modify fselect.c to scan the current directory if the input field
+ happens to be empty (Debian #640905).
+ + repeated the discussion of environment variables that can override
+ the exit-status values in the manpage's return-codes section
+ (Debian #642105).
+ + add an example to the manpage showing how to override the form
+ widget's keys used for field/button traversal (Debian #642108).
+ + modify call to dlg_register_window() in formbox.c so that the editing
+ bindings are attached to the form sub-window rather than the
+ top-level dialog window. Also change the name by which the editing
+ bindings are bound for editbox.c, fselect.c and inputbox.c, so that
+ the editing and navigation bindings can be different.
+ + correct logic in dlg_lookup_key() so that it matches the widget name
+ before using a binding from .dialogrc, allowing the inner/outer
+ windows of form and other editing widgets to have different bindings.
+ + modify dlg_register_window() to call dlg_dump_window_keys() after
+ its updates, via the --trace output, to supplement the manpage
+ description of key bindings (Debian #642108).
+ + add DLGK_FORM_PREV and DLGK_FORM_NEXT key-bindings to form.c, to
+ allow binding a single key to traverse both form-fields and buttons
+ (Debian #642108).
+ + modify dlg_parse_rc() to check for error return from
+ dlg_parse_bindkey().
+ + add function dlg_dump_window_keys(), to help with debugging widgets.
+ + add CR, LF, TAB, FF and ESC to table of curses names to help make
+ key bindings more readable.
+ + update table of dialog key-names so that helpfile and trace are
+ dumped properly.
+ + correct dlg_dump_keys(), which was showing only the first item in
+ the matched binding table.
+ + save/restore window current position in dlg_update_mixedgauge().
+ + pass return-code from pause_for_ok() from dlg_progressbox() when
+ pauseopt is set, rather than only DLG_OK.
+ + call setlocale() in init_dialog() rather than relying on on-demand
+ use within inputstr.c, since there are paths in textbox widget which
+ do not exercise the latter (report by xDog Walker).
+ + fix some places where checks for "\Z" were done without also checking
+ dialog_vars.colors (report by Moray Henderson).
+ + correct logic for DIALOGOPTS parsing so that the parse happens only
+ once unless memory leak checking is enabled (report by xDog Walker).
+ + remove an incorrect free() call in dlg_free_gauge() (report by xDog
+ Walker).
+ + modify dlg_trace_win() to log wide-characters (report by xDog Walker).
+ + make traces shorter by skipping repeated ERR's, but showing the
+ number skipped (report by xDog Walker).
+ + improve description in manpage to distinguish program box and
+ progress box from tailboxes (adapted from email by xDog Walker).
+ + modify dlg_trace_win() so that it looks for the topmost window in a
+ dialog. Because subwindows share space with the top window, tracing
+ the latter shows the whole widget (report by xDog Walker).
+ + expand tracing so that each window is traced before soliciting input,
+ making the ^T feature to print a window on demand partly redundant
+ (suggested by xDog Walker).
+ + cosmetic change in dialog.h to avoid "*/*" strings from comments next
+ to "*" (report by xDog Walker).
+ + ensure result from dlg_align_columns() has trailing null on each
+ string. Analysis was hindered by libc6's continuance of libc5's
+ early-1990s misfeature of clearing the result from malloc, noting
+ that libc6's documentation incorrectly claims that it does not do
+ this (report by xDog Walker).
