27.08.01: The gethdpath function had a bug which made it impossible to
start MToolsFM from a directory greater than 49 chars in length.
This problem has been found and fixed by Michael Joyner
<mjoyner@wolf.dyns.cx>
21.08.01: MToolsFM-1.9-2 released
21.08.01: MToolsFM-1.9 made the translations messy because it was produced
with a buggy version of xgettext. Updated po files...
12.08.01: MToolsFM-1.9
11.08.01: Updated fr and de translations. Fixed typos. Removed a bug when
copying from UNIX to UNIX which was introduced in pre3:
execlp("mtools","cp",...) does not work, of course...
Updated man page.
10.08.01: MToolsFM-1.9-pre3
10.08.01: Make main window insensitive while we are busy with something else...
07.08.01: MToolsFM-1.9-pre2
07.08.01: Removed the option for the mtools-path. We use execlp() and
system() everywhere now, so users only need to make sure that
mtools is in their path. Admins and users who need this option
(don't know why) can still write a small wrapper script which
sets the path and then calls MToolsFM.
05.08.01: MToolsFM-1.9-pre1
05.08.01: Added support for zip,bzip2,gzip,tar and split. Updated translations.
GUI should update much faster when calling subprocesses. This is done
by making the pipe filedescriptors non-blocking and redefining the
YY_INPUT macro. Added small icon to show activity.
09.04.01: MToolsFM-1.8
17.03.01: When copying from Un*x to Un*x, we now use cp to preserve attributes
17.03.01: Now we also take care of LANGUAGE when we fork().
27.02.01: Merci beaucoup à Eric Seigne <erics@rycks.com> pour la traduction française!!
MToolsFM spricht jetzt auch Deutsch!
26.02.01: 1.8-dev4 should be relatively clean...
Feb 2001: gettext_wrap was rather ugly; instead, we change the locale before
we fork. If system() is called, we make a backup of LC_MESSAGES
before calling system() and restore it afterwards.
Integrated changes by Sebastian Kolbe (date handling and missing
newlines).
Fixed a bug discovered Hampton (freezes when too many files on
floppy; this bug was introduced in 1.6)
Fixed several other bugs which were introduced when fixing that bug
;-(
26.01.00: Added gettext_wrap() to have C locale for calling mtools (Get English
diagnostics from mtools) and to have i8nized strings nevertheless.
Added patch from Philippe BOURDEU d'AGUERRE for proper date handling
on UNIX filesystems.
20.01.00: Moved almost all strings which appear in the UI to mtoolsfm.h.
added pixmap.h
Code cleanups for i18n
changed filenames from mfm.c to mtoolsfm.c and from mfm.h to mtoolsfm.h
23.12.00: Changed config files to /etc/mtoolsfm.conf and ~/.mtoolsfm
22.12.00: Fixed a problem with the cancel-button not being accepted when deleting
files.
21.12.00: Fixed a problem which allowed both clists to have different sizes
(very annoying). This is done through an event handler connected to
configure_event of the main window. Anyone knows anything smart with boxes
and without an event handler?
18.12.00: Added an option to list directories always first and made the sort_function
for the clists much better.
02.10.00: Changed name to MToolsFM
25.10.00: outbreak of activity - added a lexer for the mtools output
when fork()ing (work started in August) which allows relatively
reasonable error messages.
A part of the window now displays messages from subprocesses. Most
calls to popen() etc. converted to fork(), execl() pipe() and
dup2(). This should make calling mtools much less prone to errors
and segfaults because no malloc() for the entire command-line is
needed.
until september 00: occasional work on mfm, no time to feed ChangeLog
11.05.00: mfm-1.5
09.05.00: Fixed a problem that caused a crash with several window managers;
if you have a different date and / or time format defined in your
config files, mfm can still parse mdir´s output now.
04.05.00: mfm-1.4
03.05.00: Added context menu, possibility to choose column for sorting
files (click on column title) and a man-page written by R. P. C.
Rodgers / see THANKS
02.05.00: Links now have different color and pixmap
01.05.00: Added option for debugging output (-v)
01.03.00: Added menu-item for printing files both from floppy and unix
filesystem.
05.02.00: Integrated patch from Sebastian Kiesel for better configure script
15.01.00: mfm-1.3
04.01.00: Fixed several bugs with long filenames
added autoconf / automake (old Makefile now Makefile.old)
set remaining (special: NOPIXMAPS, weird default paths) options
in mfm.h now
added progressbar for copying
added mkdir / rename (File - menu)
12.11.99: According to Claudio Fanin, mfm also compiles on SGI 6.5 (MIPS)
29.10.99: Added an option to compile without pixmaps (have a look at the
Makefile). This should make mfm work on HP-UX 9.05 If you have
trouble compiling, try this option.
27.10.99: mfm-1.2
27.10.99: removed a bug in a handler and improved Makefile (have a look at the
new options, also see THANKS)
26.10.99: Integrated a patch from Sven Arnold (see file THANKS)
23.10.99: mfm 1.1
23.10.99: now displays size of all selected files
09.10.99: now possible to configure less drives then in system-wide config
06.10.99: mfm-1.0
06.10.99: fixed various bugs, command line options added, now refuses to copy
files which already exist on the target drive -> less chances that
mcopy hangs when copying. system-wide comfig file now /etc/mfm.conf
04.10.99: mfm-0.6
04.10.99: text mode for copying, better selection features (SHIFT+STRG support)
config-dialog added
07.09.99: mfm-0.5
07.09.99: fixed various bugs, added tooltips
