--- Begin Message ---Package: pdmenu Version: 1.2.83 Severity: normal Tags: sid Hi, Thanks for maintaining pdmenu. It's handy. I noticed that after executing a command, pdmenu won't redisplay 1.) the same part of the menu or 2.) the just selected menu item in inverse video when the item selected is toward the bottom of a menu that's too long to all fit within the console or xterm. pdmenu is reset to the top of the menu and nothing is redisplayed in inverse video. For example, if you 1.) run the following script in a 24 line xterm, 2.) press <enter> to run the "top1" item and 3.) press "q" to quit from top you'll see that the menu is properly redisplayed with "top1" in inverse video. However, if you 1.) scroll down to the "top28" item, which is beyond the normal range of a 24 line xterm, 2.) press <enter> to run top and 3.) press "q" to quit top you'll now see that 1.) the menu is redisplayed from its top and 2.) no item is displayed in inverse video. The same thing happens when it's run in a console. It's seems to me that it'd be better if 1.) the same portion of the menu were redisplayed and 2.) the just selected item were redisplayed in reverse video. Thanks, Kingsley #!/usr/bin/pdmenu menu:main::Main Menu exec:top1::top exec:top2::top exec:top3::top exec:top4::top exec:top5::top exec:top6::top exec:top7::top exec:top8::top exec:top9::top exec:top10::top exec:top11::top exec:top12::top exec:top13::top exec:top14::top exec:top15::top exec:top16::top exec:top17::top exec:top18::top exec:top19::top exec:top20::top exec:top21::top exec:top22::top exec:top23::top exec:top24::top exec:top25::top exec:top26::top exec:top27::top exec:top28::top -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.19-aa1 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C Versions of packages pdmenu depends on: ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libgpmg1 1.19.6-12 General Purpose Mouse Library [lib ii slang1 1.4.9-2 The S-Lang programming library - r -- no debconf information
