Summary: putty and other terminals Project: GNU Midnight Commander Submitted by: mirkobau Submitted on: lunedì 24/04/2006 alle 09:34 Category: Keyboard input Priority: 5 - Normal Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open _______________________________________________________ Details: putty (puttyssh.org) is an xterm-compliant terminal emulator with mouse support, and has its own terminfo definition file that instructs ncurses how to correctly recognize the keys received, but in 'src/main.c' the 'if..' block does tests only on xterm*, rxvt*, and dtterm terminals. i used TERM=xterm-color, but when i found the terminfo file 'putty-256color' i wanted to use it. After standard compilation everythyng was running well (home/end keys, and all others), but mc had *no* mouse support. actually i have corrected this problem adding the comparison: || strncmp (termvalue, "putty", 5) == 0 in the main.c file, in function init_xterm_support(), but i suggest to insert a parameter in a global option file, in wich a sysadmin could insert a line such as: [xterm-compliant] xterm* rxvt* dtterm putty* fooxterm* barxterm* ... and so on. thank you for the time spent in reading my opinions. bye from Mir ([EMAIL PROTECTED]). _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=5050> _______________________________________________ Messaggio inviato con/da Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Mc-devel mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc-devel
