Changes for vile 9.9 (released ??? ??? ?? ????)
20240708 (za)
> Tom Dickey:
+ build-fixes for VMS, from vile-9_8_vmspatch.zip on Hunter Goatley's
website.
+ modify test/vile.spec to work around new regression in rpmbuild.
+ replace cwait calls with win32 WaitForSingleObject (Savannah #65938)
+ change default in configure script for --enable-imake option to off
+ fix some gcc 14 warnings.
20240121 (z)
> Tom Dickey:
+ modify configure script to check validity of $IMAKE_LOADFLAGS
+ modify curses driver to work around configurations of ncurses where
the SIGWINCH handler has been disabled.
+ modify vl_get_encoding() to allow for nl_langinfo(CODESET) returning
an empty string, recover from this error using checks on the locale
variable (report by David Snyder).
+ updated wcwidth.c, from xterm #389
+ modify spec-file to work around a bug in make 4.4.1
+ reduce compiler-warnings in configure script checks.
+ disallow newline in quoted string in ini filter.
+ adjust dlsym lookup to account for special case of define_key, to
avoid conflict with ncurses.
+ fix mandoc warnings in vile.1
+ fix a use-after-free in parse_nondirective() due to free() in the
actual_color() function of key-filt.c
+ change VIDEO_TEXT type to "unsigned", allowing display of Unicode
values past BMP for drivers which support this.
+ modify curses configuration to handle ncurses KEY_RESIZE (prompted by
discussion with Sebastian Neuper).
+ fix typo in cross-compile check in CF_KILLPG macro (Debian #1029956)
+ update config.guess, config.sub
20230115 (y)
> Tom Dickey:
+ build-fixes for --disable-extensions and --disable-shell configure
options.
+ amend fix for 9.8w change to map.c, so that both UTF-8 in scripts as
well as interactive insertions of UTF-8 are handled (report by Chris
Green).
+ reduce compiler warnings in configure script checks.
+ modify CF_RESTARTABLE_PIPEREAD to include <sys/wait.h>, if found, to
prototype wait() (Redhat #2158163).
+ improve configure macros CF_CURSES_TERMCAP, CF_TERMCAP_LIBS, and
CF_XOPEN_SOURCE.
+ fix shellcheck warnings in version.sh and xshell.sh
+ add pattern to vile-libdir-path to allow for Debian multiarch.
20221226 (x)
> Tom Dickey:
+ trim some obsolete comments about OpenLook from the help-file.
+ update Debian test-package, based on Brendan's package.
+ drop ftp URLs from documentation.
+ document short usage message "-?" option in manpage.
+ make the new mapping feature a mode: "mini-map".
+ modify command- and minibuffer-mapping to allow for a ":map" command
to map a Unicode value past 255 into an ASCII byte (report by Yuriy)
+ amend change in filters/vilefilt.l for Coverity warning (cf: 9.8w)
+ add $look-in-cwd, $look-in-home variables to allow override of macro
search path.
+ improve icons for WinVile:
+ generate ".ico" files using Inkscape to convert the ".svg" files to
512x512 ".png" file, and then ImageMagick to convert those into
multi-image icons. This includes a 256x256 32-bit color image, for
Windows' "Large" icons.
+ change the default directory for the winvile ".iss" installers to
use "-" rather than " " in the directory name. This works around
two of the bugs seen with Windows 10: if the pathname used for the
icon (i.e., the ".exe" file) contains blanks, Windows 10 shows only
the lowest-resolution image for "Medium" icons. It also ignores
the largest image.
+ update URLs in help-file, adding /archives on main site.
+ re-use the configure check for -rdynamic to replace -export-dynamic
in the --enable-plugins configure option (Savannah #62785).
+ use setgroups() to clear supplementary group-IDs when resetting
uid/gid values.
+ when retrieving a "'" mark, it may not have been set. For that case,
use the first-line and first-column of the current buffer (report by
Yuriy).
+ modify vile-pager to decompress the input file if it is compressed.
+ clean up shellcheck warnings in non-configure scripts.
+ modify configure script to "always" check for gcc attributes, working
around spurious warnings reported by packagers (Gentoo #880941).
+ update configure script to work around regression in grep 3.8
+ add configure check for exit_curses(), exit_terminfo(), use in
leak-checking
+ improve configure check for crypt(), non-working with OpenBSD
+ update package/freebsd/*
+ update package/pkgsrc/*
+ add package/openbsd/*
+ fix a few compiler-warnings.
+ update install-sh
+ update config.guess, config.sub
20220821 (w)
> Brendan O'Dea:
+ the font specification in /etc/X11/app-defaults/UXVile was being
overridden by the one in XVile. Additionally update the xvile font
to use the Latin-1 equivalent (9x18 instead of 8x13).
+ apply memory-leak fix from pl-filt.c in 9.8v to pl6filt.c
+ rename perl6mode and corresponding syntax filter to "raku" (report by
Steve Lembark).
+ update suffix-list for rakumode.
> Tom Dickey:
+ portability-fixes for plink.sh
+ fixes for regexp.c:
+ build-fix for test_regexp
+ add parentheses in non-multibyte is_CLASS() macro to correct a
problem with pointer expressions.
+ add I/i toggle in test_regexp to exercise ignorecase.
+ revise change for lins_chars() to handle UTF-8 in scripts, as that
interfered with normal insertions (report by Chris Green).
+ fix a check in vile-manfilt, to ensure that stepping into previous
lines does not use flushed/discarded rows.
+ build-fix for perl 5.36 (Debian #1014289)
+ modify error-message from vile-manfilt to show the program name.
+ fix a state-transition in sh-filt.l, which left some text uncolored
(report by Wayne Cuddy).
+ add markdown mode (mdmode).
+ update copyright dates
+ update package/freebsd/*
+ fix some issues found with Coverity.
+ fix a few compiler-warnings.
20211212 (v)
> Lois Mansot
+ corrected range for &random function.
+ move the reframe_cursor_position() in update() to ensure that $cwline
is shown correctly when viewing [Variables] while showvariables is
set.
> Mark Robinson:
+ modify c-filt.c
+ include the quote chars in the literal colouring for C/C++/Java/etc
to make it the same as most other syntax highlighting
+ add backquote "`" as a quoting character for JavaScript, e.g., for
multi-line quotes.
+ highlight embedded "${xxx}" markers in JavaScript strings using the
Ident2 color.
+ modify sh-filt.l
+ improve parsing of the beginning of here-document to allow for
here-documents piped to programs, e.g.,
cat <<EOF | pr
something
EOF
or
cat <<EOF && date
something
EOF
+ do not treat "#" as a comment marker if it is adjacent to nonblank
text.
> Stephan Schulz:
+ add popup-choices mode (Savannah #58999)
> Tom Dickey:
+ eliminate filename conflict between vile/xvile in test-packages for
FreeBSD ports, e.g., xvile's vileget becomes xvileget.
+ suppress some of the gcc warnings due to perl header-files.
+ updated plink.sh, from xterm, to work around poor performance of gcc
on Fedora.
+ modify perl scripts to use /usr/bin/env to locate the perl program,
and eliminate sinstall.sh
+ modify curses-driver to support italics, e.g., as in ncurses 6.
+ apply Xaw header-fix for XawPlus, neXtaw and Xaw3dxft.
+ use Xaw3d menu-headers for x11vile.h and x11menu.c (FreeBSD #186420).
+ replace Header keywords with Id, to make Git-snapshots match.
+ continue development of xftplain.c (--enable-freetype). The current
driver is able to display a single TrueType font using Xft. The
menu entries for the bitmap-fonts are replaced by a single menu with
sizes.
Some of the remaining issues:
+ provide conversion for X displays other than 24-bit TrueColor
+ implement fallback fonts, i.e., --enable-fontsets
+ modify configure script to check for ssp library, needed for some
misconfigured libraries when cross-compiling to MinGW.
+ fix a case in vile-manfilt where cur_line may not have been allocated
before first use.
+ update configure script to work with _Noreturn changes in ncurses
20210320 development version.

+ handle ranges, i.e., to avoid stopping on "/"
+ check for regex after ":"
+ add m,s,u,y to permissible flags ending regex
+ quoting-fixes in autoconf macros, per shellcheck warnings.
+ add check for 'U' in read_quoted() needed to make ^VUxxxx work.
+ modify lins_chars() to handle a case where a script inserts a UTF-8
character (report by Thomas Dupond).
+ modify configure/makefiles to support ".PHONY" feature.
+ change configure/makefiles to use ARFLAGS rather than AR_OPTS
+ change configure --with-warnings to --enable-warnings for consistency
with other configure scripts, using recent changes in that to filter
gcc -Werror options to avoid breaking configure checks.
+ fix a few build problems with --disable-extensions
+ split-out x11plain.c, to start work on TrueType font support in xvile
+ modify configure script to allow clang to support loadable filters,
since recent configurations work.
+ add/fix NetBSD pkgsrc-files for 9.8u
+ update FreeBSD package-files for 9.8u
+ update config.guess, config.sub

of /usr/include and /usr/include/X11
+ suppress -Winline
+ cleanup *.dSYM directories
+ don't add gcc/clang options for c89/c99 wrappers which cannot tell
what version of gcc/clang they hide.
+ add tpumode, separating it from dclmode because the keywords differ.
also add tpu syntax filter, since syntax differs.
+ modified a configure-macro to appease autoheader-252.
+ switch back to the original buffer after displaying result of the
show-marks command in "[Named Marks]" (report/patch by Marc Simpson).
+ modify message when setting a mark in "[Named Marks]" to show that it
is ignored (report by Marc Simpson).
+ regenerate the doc-files from html, using links2 2.14 in Debian 9.
also reformat the html files.
+ trim some unwanted blanks in vile.hlp, overlooked in converting
to html (report by Marc Simpson).
+ add "go" and "typescript" majormodes.
+ fix a loop-limit in manfilt.c for ANSI CUP.
+ clone pl-filt.c as pl6filt.c to support perl6, added corresponding
"perl6" mode (discussion with Steve Lembark).

+ update gnreight.h from Debian/testing libc6 2.28-6
+ add FreeBSD package-files to help with maintaining (FreeBSD #234527,
FreeBSD #234528). Note that because of the distinfo files, those
will always be one patch behind.
+ update config.guess, config.sub
20181112 (t)
> Adam Denton:
+ fix a typo in tcap.h (Savannah #52872).
> Jeff Morriss:
+ use strncpy() rather than memcpy() for copying hashed key from
crypt(), to work with Fedora 28 which does not necessarily use a
fixed-size buffer.
> Wayne Cuddy:
+ modify x11.c to avoid clearing the window manager flags that control
focus behavior, to work with ctwm.
> Tom Dickey:
+ add WinVile64 package script for Inno Setup.
+ show "win64" for $os symbol if built for 64-bit Windows.
+ add ifdef in winvile.iss to accommodate changes with Inno Setup 5.6.1
+ use GetModuleFileNameEx() in preference to looking for winvile's
registry keys or the PATH when finding the executable path for
the "-Or" option.
+ improve coloring of "\f" font markers in the nroff filter.
+ fix a mis-setting in api.c from 9.8q cleanup.
+ document winvile registry settings in the help-file.
+ create symbolic links for the utility program's manual pages, point
to the base manpage.
+ document the utility programs and scripts which normally are packaged
in the manual page.
+ if $VILE_LIBDIR_PATH is set, prefer that in vile-libdir-path
+ corrected glob expression for vile-libdir-path
+ several fixes using Visual Studio 2017 code analysis, including
+ w32cmd.c, correct if-statement for IsDialogMessage call
+ w32misc.c, correct size of allocation for buffer
+ ensure no leak on failed realloc
+ modify casts to avoid truncation
Some parts of the analysis are false positives; it appears to have
problems in the flow analysis for reporting uninitialized values and
dereferencing null pointers. In particular, it does not understand
the idiom for reallocating an array of types.
+ build-fix for Visual Studio 2012 and later: the "FILE" struct is
opaque.
+ use registry value for PaddedBorderWidth in winvile to account for
misleading results from GetSystemMetrics introduced by Vista.
+ modify makefile.wnt to allow build with Visual Studio 2012 and later,
which omit the Win32.mak file.
+ fix a couple of unescaped "?" in suffixes for majormodes, e.g., in
mvmnmode.
+ add vcproj and vcxproj majormodes.
+ add a "report" target in makefile.wnt to show the symbols used in
a build to help troubleshoot upgrades to newer Visual Studio. For
instance, it is possible to build using Visual Studio Express 2012
with Windows SDK 7.1 by setting APPVER to "5.01".
+ reorder a comparison in regmatch() to avoid indexing past limits in
some cases of multibyte characters.
+ add a check in set_vattrs() to ensure loop limit is greater than zero
to handle a boundary case with double-width characters.
+ fix or work around gcc8 warnings.
+ improve initialization of hashed-key for crypt() using memset() on
the buffers rather than assuming the hash is the documented length.
Even with this, valgrind warns about buffer mismanagement within
libcrypt.so.
+ check for _nc_free_tinfo() for leak-checking with ncurses' tinfo
library.
+ modify perl/ruby filters to ensure the in-memory file ends with nul.
+ add filters for yaml, rust-modes to develop for a tutorial.
+ improve iss-filt.l, handling named constants such as {app}.
+ update iss.key, e.g., setup-directives and runtime functions.
+ compiler-warning fixes for gcc 7.2.1 with SuSE.
+ regenerate doc/*.doc from Debian 7 to Debian 8; the table-width
changed from links 2.7 to 2.8
+ add dummy "]]" in sh-filt.l to work around breakage with flex 2.6.1,
which insists on preprocessing C source using m4.
+ modify character class assumed for tags, to check for graphic
characters. Previously that used qident (cf: 9.7g), which did not
allow for dots in filenames which could be present in a ctags file if
it were generated using "ctags --extra=+f *" (Savannah #51774).
+ update ftp site url
+ improved configure macros:
CF_ADD_CFLAGS, CF_ADD_INCDIR, CF_BUILD_CC, CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS,
CF_CURSES_CPPFLAGS, CF_CURSES_FUNCS, CF_CURSES_LIBS, CF_FIND_LINKAGE,
CF_GCC_WARNINGS, CF_GNU_SOURCE, CF_LARGEFILE, CF_MAKEFLAGS,
CF_MKSTEMP, CF_NCURSES_CONFIG, CF_NCURSES_VERSION, CF_POSIX_C_SOURCE,

CF_TRY_XOPEN_SOURCE, CF_WITH_ICON_THEME, CF_WITH_MAN2HTML,
CF_XOPEN_CURSES, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE, CF_X_ATHENA_CPPFLAGS
+ modify ti-filt.l to allow hexadecimal, as per X/Open Curses
documentation. This is different from termcap, which (like terminfo)
supports octal and decimal numbers.
+ build-fixes for Visual Studio 2015
+ build-fixes to allow test-compile with ActiveState Perl 5.24.1, which
does not work with winvile because its DLL does not provide
COM entrypoints, e.g., CoTaskMemFree and CoRegisterClassObject
+ update config.guess, config.sub
20161217 (s)
> Brendan O'Dea:
+ add command-line parsing for "--" token, assumed by visudo in the
1.8.12 - 1.8.16 changes (report by Wayne Cuddy).
> Tom Dickey:
+ recompute majormode order when "after", "before" or "qualifiers" is
modified for a majormode.
+ add yamlmode (discussion with Steve Lembark)
+ modify DSTRING definition in lex-filter to handle continuation lines.
+ modify cfgmode to reduce false-matches with random ".cfg" files.
+ improve ps syntax filter
+ interpret %%BeginData / %%EndData keywords
+ interpret %%BeginPreview / %%EndPreview keywords
+ add ".mcrl2" as suffix for mcrlmode.
+ fixes from test-script: conf, hs, nr, rc, rcs, txt, xq, xml
+ improved regression test-script to check for places where the syntax
filter might have mixed buffered- and unbuffered-calls in the same
state, causing tokens in the markup to "move".
+ remove a statement from flt_putc in the standalone filters that
converted a bare ^A to ^A?.
+ remove escaping from digraphs.rc, since change in 9.7zg made that
both unnecessary and incorrect (reports by Marc Simpson, Brendan
O'Dea).
+ improve tcl syntax filter
+ color backslash-escapes in double-quotes.
+ add rules to handle regexp and regsub regular expressions. This
does not yet handle -regexp switch cases.
+ add call to flt_bfr_error to flag unbalanced quotes here and in
a few other filters.
+ modify newline patterns to allow for cr/lf endings in continuations
+ add special case for literals like "{\1}" and "{\\1}".
+ add special case for html entities such as "{{}" and "{&foo;}"
+ improve sh syntax filter
+ allow quoted strings within '${' parameter, a detail that can
happen with ksh brace groups (report by j. van den hoff).
+ handle ksh's "ANSI C quotes", i.e., "$'xxx'" using single quotes
after a dollar sign.
+ use the ksh ("-K") option for bashmode and zshmode syntax.
+ interpret "$name" within '${' parameter
+ don't warn for inline-here documents
+ handle special case where matching tag for a here-document is on
the same line as a closing ")" in $(xxx) command.
+ highlight ksh's "[[", "((", "$((" bracketing like "{".
+ handle ksh's "((" and "$((" arithmetic expressions.
+ handle ksh's base#value numbers
+ improve perl syntax highlighter:
+ fix state used to guess where a pattern might occur, e.g., after
an "if" keyword with no preceding operator to account for line
breaks.
+ correct a check for illegal numbers, which flagged hexadecimal
numbers containing "e".
+ distinguish special case of "format =" vs "format =>".
+ allow pod to begin without a preceding blank line, but warn.
+ allow for case where pod mode is turned on/off with only one blank
line between the directives.
+ check for simple patterns that may follow operators such as "map".
+ allow '$', '+' or '&' as a quote or substitution delimiter
+ allow angle brackets for quotes after 'q', etc.
+ fix highlighting when square-brackets are used as delimiters in a
perl substitution, e.g., s[foo[bar]xxx][yyy]
+ quiet some unnecessary compiler warnings with glibc > 2.20 by adding
_DEFAULT_SOURCE as needed.
+ improve version-comparison for "new" flex to allow for 2.6.0, and
accept that for built-in filters. Also modify filters/mk-2nd.awk
to work with "new" flex ifdef's to ignore yywrap (Debian #832973).
+ correct long-name for filename-ic mode (report Marc Simpson).
20160727 (r)
> Marc Simpson:
+ correct a typo in skipblanksb() which caused up-paragraph "{{" to
get stuck (Savannah #47211).
> Tom Dickey:
+ fix an off-by-one in argument list for wvwrap vs winvile that broke
edit-with operation from file explorer.
+ correct expression for QIDENT in rpm-filt.l, sh-filt.l, which could
match multiple tokens rather than a single one and interfere with
states for here-document.
+ use CF_PROG_LINT, which checks for cppcheck. Alternatively, this
works, though the "$(LIBS)" used in the lint-rule has to be removed:
export LINT=cppcheck
export LINT_OPTS="--enable=all"
+ add error-patterns for cppcheck.
+ updates for configure macros
+ CF_CC_ENV_FLAGS - don't limit the check to -I, -U and -D options,
since the added options can include various compiler options before
and after preprocessor options.
+ CF_FUNC_DLSYM add braces around calls to CF_ADD_LIB which follow a
test "&&" operator since the macro uses multiple statements
+ CF_LD_RPATH_OPT change FreeBSD to use -Wl,-rpath rather than -rpath
option. According to FreeBSD #178732, either works since FreeBSD
4.x; however scons does not accept anything except the -Wl,-rpath
form.
+ CF_LIB_PREFIX build-fixes for OS/2
+ CF_WITH_MAN2HTML use configured shell
+ CF_XOPEN_CURSES improve check, making it define NCURSES_WIDECHAR if
we happen to be building on a platform (such as OSX) where we do not
define _XOPEN_SOURCE or _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED
+ CF_XOPEN_SOURCE build-fixes for OS/2
+ modify configuration so that "--no-leaks" does not imply
"--with-trace", since that is not necessary when using valgrind.
+ add null-pointer checks in vile-manfilt for some unusual erasures.
+ promote $filename-ic to a global mode, using this to allow users to
do filename-completion on any system ignoring the case of filenames
(discussion on vile mailing list started by Marc Simpson).
+ modify noautobuffer mode to update the "last" buffer when the user
jumps around, e.g., using ":e" or the "historical-buffer" toggle
(discussion on vile mailing list started by Hymie).
+ add examples for which-exec and which-source to vile.hlp to show
what the popup-buffer might look like when a numeric parameter
precedes these commands.
+ modify parsing of VILE_STARTUP_PATH to accept colon-separated list
(report by Chris Green).
+ improve formatting of vile.hlp (report by Paul Fox).
+ add mode "keep-position" to allow changing the behavior after
applying a command to a range, to better match the nvi (BSD) and
vi (Solaris) flavors (prompted by report by Marc Simpson).
+ reset "$_" before executing each top-level command (report by Marc
Simpson).
+ improve workarounds for building with "new" flex, in particular the
change of return-type for yyget_leng() (report by Martin Ward).
+ make special case when locating the copy of vile which was run, to
not warn and skip because it was found in a group-writable
directory (discussion with Steve Lembark).
+ update config.guess, config.sub
20150907 (q)
> Brendan O'Dea:
+ corrected initialization for Vileserv in vileperl.rc (report by
Chris Green).
> Tom Dickey:
+ add command-line options -u and -U to set $system-crlf variable
before the "unnamed" buffer is initialized.
+ add $system-crlf to allow override of compiled-in default for "dos"
mode so that winvile can be told to create the "unnamed" buffer with
linefeed endings (Savannah #44773).
+ add variable $system-name to show the name used in version message
+ add checks after write-hook is run in case the script set $return to
anything except true or sortoftrue, or if the script set the buffer
to "view". In either case, do not proceed to write the buffer
(report by Matthew White).
+ modify prompts for register name to support name-completion, and
recognize "register" as a typed macro-parameter (prompted by
discussion with Wayne Cuddy).
+ modify configure macros to use the configured shell rather than just
/bin/sh, to accommodate deprecation of non-POSIX shells such as that
used in Solaris.
+ add configure option --with-man2html, use in generating vile-man.html
+ modify wvwrap to ensure that it does not pass options to winvile
as filenames (Savannah #44774).
+ update autoconf macros from ongoing work in lynx, ncurses and xterm
for testing ncurses6.
+ fix special case of ^G toggling in minibuffer versus '\' escaping
(report by Wayne Cuddy).
+ cleanup logic which sets DOT.o to the beginning of a line, to
ensure that the left-margin is used rather than just the first
position on a line.
+ changes in 9.8p for global substitutions with "^" exposed at least
one place, e.g., in oneliner.c where DOT was moved to the next line
without ensuring that its offset was reset. Review and amend several
other occurrences where DOT moves to next or previous line (report by
Jan Wells).
20150201 (p)
> from https://github.com/ricksladkey/vile (Rick Sladkey):
+ check in ntconio.c if running in ConEmu, e.g., ConEmuPID variable
is set, and if so, allow its bold/italic extensions.
+ modify ntconio.c to honor Unicode keyboard input.
+ amend GetCurrentDirectory() buffer size for Unicode.
> Tom Dickey:
+ add configure check for stricmp, omitted from recent Cygwin.
+ partial fix for recalling from history this command:
'a,.s/$/;/
With the fix, one can edit the previous command, and issue minor
variations.
+ improve suffix rules for mvn mode by allowing a version number in
the filename.
+ improve ant, mvn modes to highlight user-defined tags, e.g., within
"${" and "}".
+ update mvnmode keywords to maven 3.2.5
+ modify vile-xml-filt to color property names according to the new
"xmlprops" table.
+ update antmode keywords to ant 1.9.4, including a representative set
of property names. The updated table also attempts to distinguish
between tasks and subtasks.
+ add the more useful types/macros from c99 headers to c.key
+ repaint all windows on an "unnamed" buffer if told to reread and
discard changes (report by Hymie on mailing list).
+ modify logic used in global substitutions to ensure that "^" for
beginning of the line is matched only once (report by Wayne Cuddy).
+ fix a few build problems with --disable-extensions
+ modify configure macro CF_WITH_APP_DEFAULTS to check OSX-related
pathnames for MacPorts and Apple's variant.
+ improve configure macro CF_SUBDIR_PATH, changing it to a loop, adding
/usr/pkg (NetBSD) and /opt/local (Mac OSX)
+ update yacc.key for current byacc keywords.
+ modify yaccfilt.l to handle escaped newlines in quoted strings.
+ build-fix for xvile without multibyte support.
+ add error patterns for bison and byacc.
+ correct workaround in manfilt.c for bullet characters from 9.8g;
they were lost when using UTF-8 encoding.
+ improve tcl-filt.l handling of single character between curly braces,
showing that as string-attribute.
+ modify tcl-filt.l to handle square brackets quoted by curly braces
(report by Wayne Cuddy).
20141002 (o)
> Tom Dickey:
+ fix some leaks, etc., reported by valgrind and Coverity.
+ correct filtername setting for issmode, which used ini-filter.
+ add ":" and "#" to ini-filter as aliases for "=" and ";"
+ add desktop-mode, using ini-filter.
+ revise ldel_chars() function to restore feature of backspacelimit
to delete newlines while backspacing. This was lost in 9.5s changes
(Savannah #43291).
+ add case to CF_XOPEN_SOURCE for Unixware, from lynx.
+ modify configure script to define _NETBSD_SOURCE for Minix, because
its header files put the POSIX.1-2001 prototypes, such as isblank,
there.
+ add vile-to-html, vile-libdir-path to uninstall rule
+ modify configure script to supply default "-o" option for the install
program, since MINIX's does not provide a useful default.
+ other tweaks to work around deficiencies in Ash's parser, e.g., not
counting tokens until after dequoting.
+ modify configure script to avoid using "expr", fixing problem using
this with MINIX3.2, which uses Ash - a shell which omits the "<",
"<=", etc., comparison operators which POSIX specifies for "expr".
+ CF_ADD_LIBS workaround in CF_X_TOOLKIT uses pkgconfig, whose files
generally are using incomplete dependencies - in turn introducing
lots of duplication. filter out the duplicates.
+ CF_CURSES_FUNCS improve workaround for weak-linkage, seems to fix
tests with NetBSD 6.1
+ CF_X_ATHENA add --with-Xaw3dxft option
+ CF_X_TOOLKIT add workaround for breakage in XQuartz upgrades
+ update config.sub
20140706 (n)
> Brendan O'Dea:
+ use INT2PTR and PTR2IV macros rather than an explicit cast in perl.xs
and ptypemap.
> Tom Dickey:
+ improve description of search-list for syntax filter keywords in
vile.hlp; add links/anchors to improve navigation in vile-hlp.html,
config.html and macros.html
+ modify error-pattern to work with the GNU make 4.0 change to
quotes
+ modify makemode mode-filename pattern to match BSDMakefile and
GNUMakefile
+ add vile-to-html, vile-libdir-path
+ modify manfilt.c to recognize aixterm-style SGR 90-97 as colors 8-15.
+ correct off-by-one count in decoding "meta" markup from 9.8l changes
which did not work with external filters.
+ add note in config.doc recommending ncursesw for screen option over
curses/ncurses, for UTF-8 support.
+ modify DisableHook/EnableHook to let their return-value be usable as
the latch condition.
+ if configure check for gcc -rdynamic option fails, fallback to the
built-in filter configuration.
+ suppress -rdynamic option-check for clang, because its error
reporting is unreliable.
+ correct logic in nextbuffer() when autobuffer mode is unset. Similar
fix for prevbuffer() (report by Hymie on mailing list).
+ modify test for stuttering in vile_op(), to check if a count precedes
the final letter in a command. With this change,
^All
stutters as before, making the command in terms of lines. However
^Al5l
will act on the next 5 characters. Note that
^Al1l
will act on a single character (Savannah #42147).
+ fix a double-free in bclear(), when the buffer is marked noundoable
(report by Paul Fox).
+ update config.guess, config.sub
20140330 (m)
> Kevin Buettner:
+ add missing "break" in DATA() macro in x11.c from 9.8j changes.
> Tom Dickey:
+ fix configure check if curses.h is needed, by suppressing external
reference to vl_strncpy.
+ build-fix for --disable-extensions by providing dummy set_tagsmode()
+ modify [ShowFormatted] to also handle logmode the same as
typescript files
+ modify makefile.wnt to show version-details in wvwrap.exe
+ minor fix to make-hlp.pl, to complete underlining of project
hierarchy section of vile.hlp
+ clarify in vile.hlp how to suppress "press any key to continue"
message in winvile when running external shell-commands.
+ build-fix when configuring --with-external-filters when only flex
2.5.35 / 2.5.37 is available (report by Kevin Buettner).
+ fix crash in winvile in "select-all" command (Savannah #41943).
+ update gnreight.h from Debian/testing libc6 2.17-97
+ update xvile.desktop with improvements from Fedora package.
20140131 (l)
> Derek Woolverton:
+ add new keywords for C++11
> Rick Sladkey:
+ change initialization in ntconio.c to improve use with ConEmu, e.g.,
when the window is resized.
> Tom Dickey:
+ add version details to win32 executables.
+ improve rpm spec-file filter:
+ add checks for "%" markers in unexpected places, e.g., in comments.
+ change %package to not begin quoted text; it should be a one-liner
+ modify ^X-n to filter typescript files like vile-pager.
+ fill in pod descriptions for undocumented perl modules.
+ additional change for Savannah #37988 to update screen when removing
a newline which was inserted initially by the "o" command.
+ modify mode-pathname for makemode to work with arbitrary level of
directory; it assumed something like "/usr/lib/pkgconfig".
+ minor fix to tcap.c to restore colors after completing a loop which
turns off attributes. The directory.pm script caused the driver to
reset reverse-video and bold, but the driver was restoring colors
only after the first reset.
+ minor fixes for perl modules:
+ correct off-by-one position of highlighting for spell.pm
+ modify spell.pm to remember the last replacement made for a given
word and offer that as the first choice on followup changes.
+ modify dirlist.pm to reposition the window on completion so that
the last lines written to the buffer will always be visible.
+ modify hgrep.pm to set $search so that for instance, visual-matches
works.
+ modify perl modules to use strict feature.
+ add ".pp" to pasmode / Pascal and ".shtml" to htmlmode (suggested by
Radek Liboska).
+ add requires/provides for Perl modules in vile.spec (suggested by
Radek Liboska).
+ correct a sign-extension bug in column_sizes(), which caused
incorrect cursor-movement for some 8-bit encodings (report by Radek
Liboska).
+ add still more keywords for C++11
+ fix for 9.8j change to manfilt.c; reset the overstrike link to null
in erase_cell(), to avoid freeing memory twice.
+ modify internal links of html documentation to fix linklint warnings
+ fix most issues reported by rpmlint for package/vile.spec:
+ add configure option "--disable-stripping"
+ strip executables during install by adding "-s" normally
+ make the wmconfig files non-executable
+ update FSF address in several files
+ modify -F option to ensure that output uses \n consistently for the
line-separator verus \r\n.
+ minor fix to sh-filt.l's stripping of leading blanks in a here-
document.
+ updated ftp-mirror to http://invisible-mirror.net/archives/vile
+ add a new attribute markup, "M" for "meta" which is ignored by vile.
Modified filters to emit their command-line using this markup so
that applications can determine which filter was invoked when the -F
option is used to provided marked-up files.
+ build-fixes to allow "new" flex 2.5.35 to be used to build the
various filter configurations, noting that the recommended
tool is still "reflex" (report by Joran Ahlback).
+ add convile.nsi and minvile.nsi scripts to use for creating
installers from convile and minvile via cross-compiling. NSIS is far
less capable than Inno Setup, so the latter still gives the
recommended packages.
+ move ignoresuffix setting from cmode to global settings, i.e., to
use for other filetypes.
+ modify tags logic to set "tagsmode" if it is defined, and assuming
that, to test the local check-modtime value, i.e., that managed via
the majormode to allow tags files to be selectively reloaded when
their content changes (discussion with Wayne Cuddy).
+ modify sh-filt.l to recognize ksh93/bash here-strings, noting that
they are not standardized.
+ review/improve tcl syntax highlighter (report by Wayne Cuddy):
+ do not treat single-quote specially
+ allow newlines in double-quotes
+ recognize square brackets in double-quotes to denote nested
commands.
+ fix ambiguity between "-option" and "-number".
+ show sprintf-codes with string color.
+ highlight "#" prefixing hexadecimal digits as a number.
+ do not color args for unknown verbs.
+ update keywords to tcl/tk 8.6.0
+ add ".nsh" suffix to nsis mode.
+ fix for "-F" option when filtered file has no syntax highlighting;
the MK variable was not set, causing getregion() to fail.
+ update config.guess, config.sub

> Brendan O'Dea:
+ correct a couple of places in api.c which used characters rather
than bytes, which made
:%perldo s/^/X/
do the wrong thing for UTF-8 encoding.
+ change perl.xs to use bullets in a few cases to work with newer
Perl's POD parser. Also add a "back" tag (Debian #708027).
+ improve configure script for perl by locating xsubpp by the same
process as the module is loaded, e.g., using @INC (prompted by
discussion of Gentoo #380741).
> Tom Dickey:
+ add "®ex-escape" function to allow a literal string to be assigned
to "$search" without confusion (discussion with Wayne Cuddy).
+ add ".tmac" suffix to nrmode
+ modify ins_anytime() to request a screen update on completion so that
temporary changes to the screen such as empty lines for the "o"
command will be undone if needed (Savannah #37988).
+ add powershell mode
+ convert non-generated html documentation to HTML4-strict; change
font-coloring to use css.
+ amend change for Savannah #37806 to exclude buffers where the file
encoding is 8bit, fixing a mispositioning of the cursor, e.g., for
ISO-8859-2 encoding (report by Radek Liboska).

> Brendan O'Dea:
+ correct warnings from pod2text
> Tom Dickey:
+ add configure options --enable-freetype and --enable-fontsets, to
support proposed refactoring of x11.c
+ modify manfilt.c to interpret ANSI erase-line, insert/delete
character and inline cursor-movement controls.
+ modify manfilt.c to improve parsing of SGR sequences, allowing for
expansion to simple cursor movement as would be used in line-editing
for bash and tcsh (prompted by discussion with Joel Winteregg).
+ improve/fix ruby syntax highlighter:
+ add missing logic needed to make binary numbers parse
+ track curly-brace level in var_embedded().
+ improve parsing/highlighting of %r{pattern}
+ handle special token :`
+ stop highlighting after __END__
+ interpret extended mode for regular expressions, showing comments
in different color.
+ corrected logic for here-document delimiter when it happens to be a
quoted string.
+ recognize ruby 1.8's ?a syntax for ASCII character.
+ accept floating point constant without decimal point.
+ handle CR/LF endings for lines with here-document tags.
+ improve parsing of embedded expressions in strings, e.g., "#{1+2}".
+ improve parsing of extended-quoting, e.g., %|foo|
+ add ruby.key as alias for rb.key, to simplify use of the filter
as a standalone program.
+ add mode for special case of embedded-ruby used in Rails, call that
"erb" mode, activated by the "-e" option of the filter.
+ apply consistent stylesheet and website links to html documentation.
+ add commands to show bound commands ordered by the key to which they
are bound:
describe-all-keys,
describe-all-cmdmode-keys,
describe-all-insmode-keys,
describe-all-selmode-keys
(prompted by discussion with Chris Green).
+ modify htmlfilt.l to highlight embedded php, improve its parsing
of embedded css.
+ modify definition of istype() to ensure that it returns true only if
the character parameter is actually in the range 0..255 (Savannah
#38342).
+ amend change made to alt-tabpos in 9.7u for multibyte characters to
make tab and other control characters work as they did before
(Savannah #37806).
+ fixes for issues reported by Coverity:
+ modify ctype-tables to allow for -1 as a character value, since
that may be used in CharAtDot().
+ use setjmp/longjmp for recovering from fatal errors in lexers.
+ undo change to wrap-word from 5.6t, allowing a parameter which is
interpreted as a number of spaces to append after the cursor when
the line is split.
+ various minor resource leaks.
+ start refactoring x11.c, making the current text-drawer x11plain.c
+ merge/adapt Brendan's current scripts to add perl documentation
to the vile-common Debian package for test-builds. This also makes
the ".xpm" file consistent with the desktop icons.
+ add "divert" to m4 preamble to work with sendmail's ".mc" files.
+ use shape-mask and correct visual depth for window-decoration icon
in xvile.
+ the "-i" option is available in most filters now. Ignore it when
checking for unknown options in the wrapper for external filters
(report by Wayne Cuddy).

+ add 3rd parameter to AC_DEFINE's to allow autoheader to run
+ remove unused macros
+ update config.guess, config.sub

> Tom Dickey:
+ fix build for minvile, whose icon path was broken in 9.8h
+ amend fix for Savannah #36801 to make a special case for the calls
via "execute-named-command" which limits the quoting to search
commands and shell-commands by testing the first character of the
command-line (report by Wayne Cuddy).
+ update configure script to support --datarootdir option.
+ improve dependencies for rpm package by adding extra patterns for
vile's mime.pl and plugins.pl scripts.
+ improve ToggleMode macro, making it set the local value as ToggleList
does (report by Wayne Cuddy).

> Tom Dickey:
+ document icon options in config.doc
NOTE: the meaning of the --with-icondir option changes with this
version; --with-pixmapdir replaces that usage, while --with-icondir
is used to support icon themes.
+ update vile.mini.xpm to add 32x32 and 48x48 sizes.
+ add configure --with-icon-name option.
+ add iconName resource, which can override the compiled-in pixmap.
+ revise xvile configure options with improved versions from xterm.
+ add .png and .svg icons, for use in icon-themes.
+ add fences to rpmmode.
+ restore highlighting of xpmmode, lost in 9.8g changes.
+ modify vile.spec to conditionally incorporate the perl features.
NOTE: this omits dict.pm due to limitations of the rpm program.
+ improve pattern used for regular expressions in awk-filt.l
+ improve check in c-filt.c for quoted strings to ensure that a
backslash is given for continuation-lines.
+ modify ecrypt.c to reset seed/salt before each file, so that a set
of files can be decrypted with a wildcard.
+ improved lex-filt.l:
+ do not treat a line consisting only of whitespace as indented-code.
+ amend CODE1 state to handle indented comments between patterns.
+ modify initialization of [vileinit] to quote parameters passed from
the command-line, e.g., for the "-s" option so that embedded blanks
are retained (report by Greg McFarlane, Savannah #36801).
+ modify hist_show() to return correct index for "#" buffer when
autobuffer mode is turned off (Savannah #36739).
+ correct logic in special_formatter() for L_CURL case so that
expressions such as
setv $modeline-format "%{&cat 'ignorecase is ' $ignorecase}"
work (patch by Adam Denton, Savannah #35288).
+ corrected highlighting of continuation-lines for double-quoted
strings in awk, tcl filters (prompted by report by Wayne Cuddy).
+ reduce sh.key to POSIX shell keywords and utilities.
+ add zshmode and bashmode, for consistency.
+ add kshmode, to address slight syntax differences between Korn
(ksh93) and Bourne shell scripts.
+ add new command "derive-majormode", which is used to make a new
mode initially copying another mode's settings.
+ improved sh-filt.l:
+ "<<<" short-form here-document.
+ add "-K" option to support Korn shell's "vnames", which allows one
to define a variable containing "." if there already exists a
variable consisting of the part before the ".".
+ exclude backtic from a pattern in here-documents, which prevented
embedded backtic's from being recognized.
+ extend the list of operators for brace substitution.
+ use autoconf 2.52.20120310, to work around Intel 12.x compiler.
+ add configure check for clang, to improve compiler warnings.
+ build-fix for HP-UX 10.20 lex, which prototyped main() without params
20120309 (g)
> Tom Dickey:
+ relax conditions for displaying saved message just before starting
full screen mode, to allow the default help-summary to show (report
by Paul Fox).
+ modify logic for [vileinit] and [vileopts] buffers which are used
during startup, to first close their window if possible, eliminating
a message that interfered with other startup messages (report by
Paul Fox).
+ improve insert-exec mode by filtering out characters which have
special meaning in insert-mode.
+ add ToggleMode macro (prompted by question by Wayne).
+ add complete.rc GetCompletion macro as an example of how to do
insert-completion.
+ add "show-user-variables" command.
+ implement "describe-$variables" command.
+ add alias "describe-user-functions" for "describe-&functions"
+ add alias "describe-state-variables" for "describe-$variables"
+ add variables $get-at-dot, $get-it-all, $get-length and $get-offset
to simplify scripting of &get-completion and similar features.
+ modify vilefilt.l to highlight functions using "-" character.
+ add aliases &get-key, &get-motion, &get-sequence as more readable
names for >key, >motion and >sequence.
+ add &get-completion function to support macros that can handle
name-completion in insert mode (prompted by mailing list discussion).
+ reset video-attributes for linebreak when computing the left/right
scrolling offset, fixing a case from 9.8f which left stray highlights
+ updated nsis.key
+ modify conffilt.l to match leading keywords that may begin with a
leading punctuation mark, other than the existing comment markers or
brackets.
+ modify nsis mode to ignore case of keywords.
+ add -i option to most syntax filters to control whether keyword
matching is done ignoring case. The exceptions are html, imake and
make, which use special logic for deciding which to use.
NOTE: this is an incompatible change which can affect user-defined
majormodes that use the affected filters. However, presetting the
-i option on about a third of the syntax filters would be more
confusing than making this explicit in filters.rc
+ modify configure script to support cross-compiling, tested with
cross-compiler to mingw using convile and minvile targets.
+ add null-pointer checks for "nohl" fix in 9.8f, needed for the case
when no majormode is in effect.
+ modify vile-manfilt to accept 0xb7 bullet character used in some
manpages.
+ updates for configure macros CF_NCURSES_CONFIG, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE
20111127 (f)
> Tom Dickey:
+ trim unneeded loader flags added in Mandriva 2010.2's rpmbuild, since
those prevent the loadable filters from linking.
+ modify symlinking of manpages in vile.spec to avoid using absolute
links, since those may be removed in rpmbuild.
+ change makefile.wnt to add WIDE knob to define UNICODE, and also for
the OLE configuration to use comsuppw.lib rather than comsupp.lib
+ drop -G4 option from makefile.wnt, which was an optimization to favor
486 processors phased out in Visual C++ 5.0, and with 9.0 produces
a warning.
+ change return type of TERM.setpal from void to int, since the return
value is used with the win32 platform.
+ modify special case for "dos" setting in a submode introduced in
8.3q, recognizing "nodos" also. This allows overriding a submode
that is previously defined, e.g., in modes.rc, by a user's .vilerc
(report by Wayne).
+ correct "nohl" when used in a submode. As a side-effect, vile frees
video attributes for the buffers, but in this special case it did not
limit the freeing to buffers using the majormode whose highlight
submode was turned off (report by Wayne).
+ add force-empty-lines operator.
+ add delete-empty-lines operator (request by Wayne).
+ change tabstop within [Printable Chars] to keep the result within
80 columns.
+ improved rpm syntax highlighter:
+ modify number pattern to add dots and dashes for version numbers.
+ match keywords in more places by checking for the name in %name and
%{name} patterns when the first match fails.
+ add keywords %exclude, %makeinstall and %run_ldconfig
+ add vile-pager to dpkg package script for vile.
+ add ".pod" files to perlmode.
+ change default in basic.key to Keyword for consistency.
+ modify xresfilt.l to check for continuation-lines of comments.
+ add "YI" capability to tc.key, per ncurses fix.
+ add extra-colors settings for linenumber and linebreak, as well
as the normal "<" and ">" markers.
+ modify makemode to use tabinsert, allowing notabinsert to be a
default in other mode (patch by Anthony Shipman).
+ add erlang syntax highlighter and majormode (patch by Anthony
Shipman).
+ add linebreak mode, like vim (request by Paul Van Tilburg).
This does NOT yet work with color highlighting, but does work with
wide-characters.
+ fill in a missing chunk of logic for wrapping double-width characters
(report by Sukegawa Shigeyuki).
+ modify debian/rules to work around a quoting problem in Brendan
O'Dea's build environment.
+ fix a typo in help-file description of modeline (report by Wayne).
+ adapt/use multi-package feature of Fedora rpm script.
+ modify dpkg and rpm scripts to install lxvile.
+ add build-dependency for dpkg test-script against libperl-dev
