• add makefile rules for generating pdf, etc., for manpage.
• modify minstall.sh to update program name if the configure script options such as --program-prefix were used to rename the program.
• add Debian package scripts (requires some assembly...).
• add rpm spec-file (see my ftp area for binaries).
• add -alias option to allow override of locale.alias pathname.
• improve configure check for locale.alias file for NetBSD.
• improve fix waitForInput as suggested in Freedesktop #26383.
• drop mkdirs.sh, use mkdir -p.
• improve configure script for ctags/etags, e.g., to work with pkgsrc.
• drop Imakefile
• fix warnings from clang --analyze
• updated configure script macros, mostly for quoting- and variable initialization fixes.
• update config.guess, config.sub

2009/10/14 -

• add -V version option.
• work around defective implementation of gcc attribute warn_unused_return.
• add configure check for openpty, use that on systems such as OpenBSD rather than requiring setuid operation.
• ifdef open to work with incomplete definitions for O_NOCTTY and TIOCSCTTY (adapted from patch by Yaakov Selkowitz).

2009/8/16 -

• reset connection to blocking mode on exit.
• modify poll-flavor of waitForInput to also check if the connection has hung up.
• improve initialization for -p command-line option to work with more BSD-flavors.
• improve configure script checks for font encoding library using AC_PATH_XTRA, and noting that font encoding library may depend upon z library.
• replace #ifdef to define HAVE_GRANTPT with configure script.
• improve use of const more consistently in sources.
• clean up include-dependencies by including config.h before other includes.
• add change from xorg git:
  • luit: Convert platform #ifdefs to configure tests for functions & headers
    (adds configure checks for functions and headers used to open pty's, uses that to replace a derived #define for HAVE_POLL, #ifdef's the corresponding headers and modifies #ifdef for I_PUSH ioctl to add __SVR4).
• updated configure script macros: CF_ADD_CFLAGS CF_ADD_INCDIR CF_ADD_LIBDIR CF_ADD_SEARCHPATH CF_FIND_LINKAGE CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES CF_GCC_WARNINGS CF_HEADER_PATH CF_LIBRARY_PATH CF_PATH_PROG CF_PKG_CONFIG CF_XOPEN_SOURCE CF_X_FONTENC
• update configure utility scripts (config.guess, config.sub, install-sh, mkdirs.sh).

• add -p option, to make the wait-pipe workaround from XFree86 optional. The default behavior is the older one.

• add ifdef for NO_LEAKS, to check for memory leaks. Found none in luit; font encoding library does have leaks.

• update minstall.sh from xterm to fix possible scripting dependency upon locale.
• set ncurses' NCURSES_NO_UTF8_ACS environment variable to simplify use of line-drawing characters in luit.
• improve default value for locale.alias pathname by checking in the more common X11 locations.

• use codepage change from luit 1.0.2
• modify configure script so --with-fontenc-cflags and --with-fontenc-libs options with when pkg-config is not available.
• fixes for configuring fontenc library without pkg-config.
• fixes for gcc -Wwrite-strings warnings.
• fixes for gcc -Wconversion warnings.
• updated configure script macros CF_ANSI_CC_REQD, CF_CHECK_CACHE, CF_FIND_LIBRARY, CF_GCC_ATTRIBUTES, CF_GCC_WARNINGS, CF_IMAKE_CFLAGS, CF_MSG_LOG, CF_PATH_SYNTAX, CF_POSIX_SAVED_IDS, CF_SUBDIR_PATH, CF_TYPE_FD_SET, CF_VERBOSE, CF_WITH_PATH, CF_WITH_ZLIB, CF_XOPEN_SOURCE.
• update configure utility scripts (config.guess, config.sub, install-sh, mkdirs.sh).

• import snapshot from XFree86 (last change 2005/2/9).
• inspected Xorg sources, found no newer changes of note.
• wrote a configure script.
• minor code cleanup (fix compiler warnings, add ifdef's to prevent repeated inclusion of header files remove redundant #include's indented code).
