Re: [RFE] right-side scrollbar for mcedit

[Jindrich Novy]

Hi mc-devel,

looking more into widget.c I see that listbox_drawscroll(WListbox *l) is
used for drawing scrollbars. I see it's rather single purpose function
expecting that only listboxes should have scrollbars. Would you object
to add a function like this:

void
vscrollbar (Widget widget, int height, int width, int tpad, int bpad,
int selected, int count, gboolean color);

to allow scrollbars to be added to a general widget? It could replace
listbox_drawscroll() completely. To let listbox_draw() to use such
function is an one-line fix.

 Hi mc-devel,
 
 I want to ask you for your opinion about one feature I would like to see
 in mcedit. I miss a vertical scrollbar on the right side of the mcedit
 to let me guess in which part of the file I actually am. It's not like
 we don't have this information at all as we can see the position
 precisely from the bar on top, but a vertical scrollbar is something
 visual that would help me to guess the position from the first look.
 
 The meaning of the numbers in the bar on top isn't too much intuitive,
 but still helpful to guess what line I'm at precisely as well as when
 I'm interested in file contents of the current position.
 
 I considered even the horizontal scrollbar on bottom to let me guess the
 starting position of the edited lines if the edited lines are too long
 to fit the screen, but a vertical scrollbar on the right side would
 suffice considering it wastes only one character from the mcedit
 window.
 
 Maybe that's a good feature for mcview as well.
 
 If you like this feature, I volunteer to implement a patch for that.
 (or, better to say, I'm actually working on it :-] )

See FIXME: check if vfs_s_find_inode returns NULL in direntry.c.
Apparently, what's happening is exactly that.  Of course, it's not hard
to check the result and return, but it would be nice to actually make mc
work rather than bail out.

I cannot reproduce this error, so I guess you are doing something
unusual with the FTP server.  More details about that could be helpful.
