Package: unicode-screensaver
Version: 0.4-2
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream patch
Dear Maintainer,
unicode-screensaver sometimes shows "U+ABCD: something is wrong" in the
footer, in place of "U+ABCD: <Name of character>".
This make it hard to distinguish the error message from actual content
(character names). Would it be possible to increase the differentiation
between error messages and from character names?
I propose this:
diff --git a/unicode.c b/unicode.c
index 3c19244..b424351 100644
--- a/unicode.c
+++ b/unicode.c
@@ -107,5 +107,5 @@ get_unicode_data_name (FcChar32 uc)
return unicode_name_get_name(&unicode_names[mid]);
}
- return "something is wrong";
+ return "�";
}
(To be clear, that's a literal U+FFFD in the patch.)
Thank you for making unicode-screensaver! ☺
Daniel
P.S. I didn't try to build with this patch, but I applied it directly to
the packaged binary and it worked as expected.
