Cool release!
Did you was able to run dvtm on openbsd or netbsd? I dunno... looks
like librote needs pty.h which is not a bsd stuff (dont know in fbsd)
but building librote with --disable-pty makes the dvtm build faild
because of an missing symbol:
dvtm.c:(.text+0xafa): undefined reference to `rote_vt_forkpty'
Some one already sent me a patch for *BSD support but apparently i broke
it again. I should probably set up a kvm/qemu vm as test environment.
Try removing the #include pty.h in rote.c as this is not needed on
*BSD. Then rerun configure without --disable-pty, hope it works.
Can test this now...But I promise to test it on openbsd and netbsd asap.
Now i'm enjoying a 33k dialup connection..and next days i'll live
leeching german wifis, so, not sure when I'll be able to get enought
uptime to ssh to my bsd boxes O:)
Today i have actually downloaded the latest iso's from
{open,net,free}bsd and opensolaris so i have something to play around.
About the redrawing timeout..Is this a temporally hack? select()
have you taken a look on the screen sources? I dont know how they
handle this in a proper way.
It's the way it is until someone proposes a better way / writes a patch :)
I haven't looked at the screen sources yet, if i find the time i will
investigate in a select based solution.
Maybe you can have a look at 'tm' source:
http://vicerveza.homeunix.net/~viric/soft/tm/
I have already implemented a select() based event loop. It can be obtained
with git or directly here:
http://repo.or.cz/w/dvtm.git?a=snapshot;h=b6848a85be5b1a29d5f82de6692f30808e982825
This includes some other improvements like the possibility to minimize windows
(only the titlebar is shown), a new fullscreen layout, and an optional status
bar
which reads from a named pipe. I plan to do another release soon but
i am currently investigating migrating from librote to a librote
derivate called madtty which is just a single file and could be linked
into dvtm.
For the rest. Awesome work! I find it quite usable and makes my
putty sessions more comfortable :)
Maybe I miss a scrolling log for each terminal..
Yep would be handy in some situations.
Regards,
Marc
