d75af9836e Table markdown for "Portability" sections 2025-02-18 22:37:31 -05:00
William McBrine
3c67ce4471 Adding the NetBSD functions reminded me how outdated the "Portability"
tables were. Hopefully this is more useful, if still questionable.

a0b7d587c1 Inconsistent line wrap length and spacing in "man page" descriptions. 2019-05-11 20:34:11 -04:00

4a15672341 Rebranding -- it's still public domain, but I'll no longer refer to it
as "Public Domain Curses". (Outside of the official docs, no one ever
did, anyway.)

9759362144 Added a half-assed explanation of vwprintw() vs. vw_printw(). I don't
really want to go into it.

649d5171fa Abandoning tabs, and changing indent to 4 spaces -- part 1. 2008-07-13 16:08:18 +00:00

bdc31fad97 Removed maintain.er and boilerplate; integrated contents into README;
replaced boilerplate with "Public Domain Curses", which covers both the
name and the (lack of) copyright status. :-)

902553ba67 Include config.h only from curspriv.h. Hopefully this will facilitate
moving it in the future...

65c53f035a Move man page comment blocks to just after the RCSID. 2007-06-14 14:11:31 +00:00
William McBrine
a0ad37d420 Oops... can't have RCSID before including the file where the macro is
defined!

8f80d32951 Changed RCSIDs to not end with a semicolon -- avoids warnings with
-pedantic. Also, as long as I'm changing them, I decided to move them
all to just below the boilerplate, to have them in a more consistent
location.

3d8eea8473 Documentation: Removed the distinction between "X/Open Description" and
"PDCurses Description"; various cleanup. The new policy is simply to
describe PDCurses' behavior; if anyone wants the canonical descriptions
(which these weren't, anyway), they can refer to X/Open directly.

65754acd63 Spacing -- made man page header consistent. 2006-12-25 14:27:13 +00:00
William McBrine
9790346bd3 Replaced "win == (WINDOW *)NULL" with "!win", etc. These were not used
consistently and, IMHO, are no more clear. To Do: Platform dirs.

b83a8af26f Reordered functions -- if there's a core function, it goes at the top;
others below arranged by group. Use "%p" instead of "%x" for pointers.
Made man page prototypes match functions.
2006-11-04 12:59:03 +00:00

a3d640534b Updated portability charts (removed "'88", flagged functions as Y in
X/Open column if they're in the current (1996) standard); removed
comments about macro implementation where no longer applicable.

1914c543c0 Dropped the "No distribution..." clause. It was widely violated anyway.
I only kept it in 2.8, rewriting it to mention trademark, to make it
clear that PDCurses was always public domain, despite the seemingly
contradictory wording in the boilerplate, and that trademark (not
copyright) was the only basis for restricting distribution in this case.
But I don't want to be like the Mozilla Foundation.

b228b60eea Instead of defining CURSES_LIBRARY to include curspriv.h, include
curses.h (and define CURSES_LIBRARY) from curspriv.h. Also created
pdcwin.h, and moved some things there.

7f5298a7fa Removed most macros -- all those covered by NOMACROS, plus get..y and
get..x. Also added getcury() and getcurx() functions. There were
numerous problems with the macros (poor maintainability, interference
with namespaces, bloated executables, etc.), and only one supposed
advantage: performance. Testing (even on a simulated 4 MHz machine) does
not show this advantage. The function call overhead is trivial compared
to other bottlenecks. The only other reason to keep them would be
tradition... and the faint possibility that someone, somewhere is
ifdef'ing off them (the same problem that undid my attempted enums). But
in this case, I really doubt it. Note that Larsson's Pccurses didn't use
the macros; comments by Frotz suggest he added them to conform to the
standard, but they aren't required by issue 4 version 2 (while the
functions are).

8453b89ce2 New RCSID macro for RCS id strings; also added RCS id comments to the
remaining .h files. Note that the RCS ids are now static per module and
all have the same name.

d8379edab0 Use vsnprintf() when possible. To Do: Add it for the non-configure
builds.

d187b18759 Added const to *printw(). This is not in the standard, but I can see no
logical reason not to do it, and it's done by several other curses
implementations. To Do: *scanw(); but that will require altering
PDC_vsscanf() first, or removing it.

e5921a8c88 Formatting -- mainly shortening the man-start and man-end lines to match
the boilerplate box.
2006-02-23 01:46:54 +00:00

aff031cf7b New format for the boilerplate; other formatting. Yes, I'm probably
spending too much time on this.

6e07b01950 Simplified and (hopefully) clarified the boilerplate. 2006-02-16 22:59:50 +00:00

b0ecceeae5 Removed PDC_CDECL. It was used only in Watcom/Win32, and that, only in
2.7 (it was commented out previously). I tried all combinations of the
supported Win32 compilers, and could not get any one to build binaries
against another's libraries, except LCC against MSVC libs (even the
reverse didn't work) -- and that didn't even involve cdecl. It's
possible this could be made to work, but clearly it will involve a lot
more than just PDC_CDECL. Meanwhile, it's... well, really ugly. So I'm
dumping it, and just advise you to build PDCurses with the same compiler
you use to build your app -- as far as I can tell, that's the only way
that's ever worked anyway.

5a9c907701 Spacing on "Portability" sections. To Do: Update these for X/Open '96. 2006-01-30 12:17:18 +00:00
William McBrine
f370f911cc "const" on rcsid tag strings, and break them after the equal sign to
keep them within 80 chars. Added rcsid to the X modules.

62b6ff87e3 Removed lines of asterisks from function headers; made spacing more
consistent; minor code cleanups.

b00304ab9f More boilerplate reformatting. 2006-01-28 15:01:41 +00:00
William McBrine
56cce59ec7 Abandon non-stdarg code (it didn't work right). May as well abandon all
non-ANSI code now.
2006-01-28 14:51:16 +00:00

46c9e97efc Per the spec, non-macro implementations for COLOR_PAIR(), PAIR_NUMBER(),
getbkgd(), mvgetnstr(), mvwgetnstr(), vw_printw(), and vw_scanw().
2006-01-27 18:41:37 +00:00
William McBrine
30337ac0d7 Replaced global c_printscanbuf with local buffers in vwprintw() and
vwscanw(); also, minor formatting.
2006-01-25 14:32:35 +00:00
William McBrine
e5c55b4eed Added vwprintw() and vwscanw(); added macros for vw_printw and vw_scanw;
reworked other functions to use these. THESE are the last of the
non-attr_t, non-widechar functions from the standard, and I really mean
it this time.

1d49f9a31b Redundant stdarg includes and defines (these are in curspriv.h). 2006-01-15 23:17:35 +00:00
William McBrine
ecdbfeb380 Reversing myself -- I had changed all move()'s to wmove(stdscr) (and
some already were that way), but it's no more direct, and move() is one
less parameter.
2006-01-14 06:42:03 +00:00

a611ccb3e5 Eliminated some redundant code; minor formatting changes. Also, some
routines accessed window structures in their variable declarations,
_before_ checking for a NULL window pointer.
2006-01-13 01:17:59 +00:00

ec5a8f3efb Mostly formatting. Removed some cruft and dead code. Fixed a few minor
bugs. Hopefully didn't introduce any. :-)

1514521e2c Replaced "if (trace_on) PDC_debug()" calls and surrounding ifdefs with
PDC_LOG() macro, just for neatness' sake. (First post-2.7 change.)
