What is audio/x-wav D)download or C)cancel anyway?
and why do I get a black screen with this mysterious message at the bottom when I am attempting to play a WAV file in MC running in a terminal (not in X!)? And, of course, I just get this message, no music. What in the world is happening, here? Just upgraded to Slackware Current on my old eeepc netbook, decided to play a piece of music afterward to relax, and I confronted this. I looked into the extension editor, and it says about wav files and other sound files that it follows what is in /usr/libexec/mc/ext.d/sound.sh That file does not seem to contain anything of the kind. It says it is going to use play in the terminal (which is what I expected) and it says it wants to use xmms in X. But nowhere that I could think of looking did I find any message resembling what is above. And what could it conceivably have to do with opening a WAV file which is on my hard drive, not somewhere else, and wanting to do the obvious which is to play it? This is totally weird. ___ mc mailing list https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
How screen content saving handled in xterm case?
Hello, Yesterday I spent couple of hours trying to trace how shell screen content is working in case of xterm terminal. While handling in case of linux console is very visible, and otherwise there're some checks for xterm/rxvt stuff, but I couldn't find exact escape sequence(s)/exact place where saving is done in case of xterm. I also tried to approach it from the other side, by looking at xterm escape sequences docs, http://www.xfree86.org/current/ctlseqs.html , and neither could find something which is clearly usable for screen saving, like command read char/rect. So, any hints how that magic is done? What I'm trying to do is to figure out why Android terminal emulators don't save screen content with mc.

I think you're looking for alternate screen buffer. egmont On Mon, Sep 2, 2013 at 11:39 AM, Paul Sokolovsky pmis...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, Yesterday I spent couple of hours trying to trace how shell screen content is working in case of xterm terminal.

Yeah, I saw this, but nowhere the docs says that content is saved in these buffers when switching. And trying it, when switching from normal to alt then back to normal, normal's content is saved. But from alt to normal, back to alt, alt's content is lost (buf cleared). Holy cow! Whoever will bang their head on this, the sequences to try in shell are: Switch to alt buffer: echo -e \E[?47h Back to normal: echo -e \E[?47l In mc, this is handled in win.c do_enter_ca_mode(), do_exit_ca_mode(), which are of course very insightful names for this kind of stuff. Thanks much! egmont On Mon, Sep 2, 2013 at 11:39 AM, Paul Sokolovsky pmis...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, Yesterday I spent couple of hours trying to trace how shell screen content is working in case of xterm terminal.
