2015-03-16also set window title on ncurses, by querying terminfo capabilitiesRobin Haberkorn1-0/+1
2015-03-10added SciTECO icon and compile it into Windows binariesRobin Haberkorn1-0/+12
* sciteco.ico contains a 16 color 16px, a 255 color 32px and a true color 48px version of the icon. The first ones are good for legacy Windows versions like 2000, while the latter one should be preferred by Windows >= 7. * Also added the 48px version as a PNG for Linux. But it is not installed currently, as there is no standardized place for it and it wouldn't do much good in /usr/share/sciteco.
2015-03-10added ./configure --enable-static-executables optionRobin Haberkorn1-0/+14
* This adds the -all-static libtool option and can be used to link a static sciteco binary (or at least link in as few as possible dynamic libraries) * Esp. useful on MinGW to link in all dependant libraries (glib, libintl, libiconv, libpdcurses, ...) statically. A static .exe is much smaller than a dynamically linked plus all the DLLs and is easier to relocate. * This does not guarantee that ALL libraries are linked in dynamically. E.g. on MinGW, the sciteco.exe will still link to MSVCRT and the Windows system DLLs, but they already ship with Windows. * On MinGW, even a static build will still require the gspawn-win32-helper-console.exe which is used by glib to implement g_spawn with redirection. We cannot get around that. * It would be better to let this be decided by the package builder using the standard env variables like LDFLAGS. However, this does not seem to work well with libtool. It IS possible to define LDFLAGS="-all-static" when calling make but this approach sucks.
2015-03-09improved error message when libpdcurses is not foundRobin Haberkorn1-1/+2
* PDCurses build system produces static libraries that cannot be found by Autoconf (pdcurses.a) and often files have the wrong permissions.
2015-03-07improved --help output and introduced PACKAGE_URL_DEV (for development home)Robin Haberkorn1-0/+4
* The PACKAGE_URL_DEV is also mentioned in --help output and sciteco(1)
2015-03-03define -DCURSES instead of -DNCURSESRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
* has been changed in Scinterm some time ago * I don't know if defining this makes actually any difference, but Jinx does it.
2015-03-02try hard to free heap memory after command-line termination using malloc_trim()Robin Haberkorn1-0/+5
* this is a Linux/glibc-only optimization
2014-11-24introduced $SCITECOCONFIG env variable, and set different default for ↵Robin Haberkorn1-7/+0
$SCITECOPATH on Windows * $SCITECOCONFIG has been introduced, so have a macro-accessible location for the profile, buffer session etc. This is set to the program dir on Windows. That way, the config files will be found, regardless of the current working dir, but it may also be set up for Unix-like environments on Windows. * $SCITECOPATH defaults to the program dir + "/lib" now on Windows. * The default profile is now always called ".teco_ini". Also on Windows. Platform differences like this would need to be documented. * The sample teco.ini has been renamed to "sample.teco_ini" for clarity
2014-11-17renamed the "NCurses" UI to "Curses" internallyRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
* does not change ./configure parameters You still have to specifiy --with-interface=ncurses for the Curses interface with default settings * the "NCurses" UI was used for many different Curses variants, so plain "Curses" is a better name.
2014-11-16enable bootstrapping by defaultRobin Haberkorn1-6/+7
The SciTECO language changes often and the build system scripts are adapted accordingly. If bootstrapping is disabled by default on systems that already have SciTECO, building recent Git versions will fail often due to macro errors. This is not easy to see and correct for users. Also the build-time overhead for `sciteco-minimal` is minimal. The --disable-bootstrap option is mostly useful when cross-compiling SciTECO.
2014-08-22automatically build Scintilla as part of SciTECO's build system:Robin Haberkorn1-2/+6
this should simplify building SciTECO for new users * compiler and archiver are passed down from Autoconf, so cross-compiling should work transparently * `make clean` will also clean the Scintilla source tree * there is no longer any need for "source bundles" as tar balls also contain Scintilla/Scinterm now * building from Git is not much more difficult than building from a tar ball * The versions of Scintilla/Scinterm embedded as submodules already contain all the patches necessary (currently none are necessary), so there's no need to have patch files in the repository * INSTALL instructions have been rewritten * the --with-scintilla and --with-scinterm site-config options have been kept. But they should be rarely necessary now.
2014-02-17mention sciteco.sf.net as the project's homepageRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
2014-02-16treat Emscripten's em++ like ClangRobin Haberkorn1-1/+2
2014-02-16prepare new target release v0.6Robin Haberkorn1-1/+1
2014-02-15added EMCurses/Emscripten supportRobin Haberkorn1-1/+7
by building with Emscripten support, SciTECO may be embedded into web pages. * sciteco.html is not a piece of documentation but a sample SciTECO embedding
2013-07-09fixed compilation of the GTK+ interfaceRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
* there was a compile-time race condition that could result in the GObjects not being built (with Gob2). So I removed the symbols generation from BUILT_SOURCES. * apparently either Scintilla depends on gmodule since I last tested or the gtk+-2.0 pkg-config package no longer includes gmodule, so we must explicitly depend on it
2013-03-20updated version to 0.5Robin Haberkorn1-1/+1
2013-03-20replace GNU readlink dependency with custom canonicalize() shell functionRobin Haberkorn1-9/+10
* some build environments (like XCode) do not have a GNU readlink by default
2013-03-20default Scintilla-path is ../scintillaRobin Haberkorn1-2/+2
so no additional --with-scintilla is necessary when building from a source bundle
2013-03-18add check for CLang: use clang-specific warnings only when compiling with CLangRobin Haberkorn1-0/+3
* fixes gcc-4.4 which does not have -Wno-mismatched-tags and no -Wunknown-warning
2013-03-16add links to Github pagesRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
2013-03-16manual chapters: Expressions, Command Syntax, Q-RegistersRobin Haberkorn1-0/+1
2013-03-16added option to build manuals as HTML using GroffRobin Haberkorn1-0/+13
* will be useful for Windows builds since Windows users usally do not have a man-page formatter/reader
2013-02-25integrate Doxygen into build systemRobin Haberkorn1-2/+20
* solely for generating developer docs * disabled by default even if Doxygen is installed * Doxygen comments are not used currently
2013-02-22use typedef for SciTECO integers and make it configurable at configure timeRobin Haberkorn1-0/+6
* storage size should always be 64 (gint64) to aid macro portability * however, for performance reasons users compiling from source might explicitly compile with 32 bit integers
2013-02-22added --with-default-scitecopath config option: default value of $SCITECOPATHRobin Haberkorn1-3/+10
useful for Windows where the desired default path does not correspond with the installation dir of the std lib macros
2013-02-22added --with-scinterm site-config option and cleaned up Curses configurationRobin Haberkorn1-21/+23
may be used to have multiple scinterm-versions in the Scintilla source tree
2013-02-22VPATH build fixes: SciTECO can now be built from a parallel source treeRobin Haberkorn1-2/+1
...which is useful when crosscompiling for MinGW
2013-02-22clean up SciTECO bootstrapping by building convenience libraryRobin Haberkorn1-3/+3
* pkg-config LIBS should be added to $LIBS so that link order is correct
2013-02-15install standard macros into special standard library path (pkgdatadir/lib)Robin Haberkorn1-1/+6
* SCITECOPATH environment variable defaults to this directory * manpage updated * default teco.ini updated: no need to generate it anymore
2013-02-01perform additional expansions on explicitly-specified Scintilla pathsRobin Haberkorn1-1/+3
a common ./configure parameter would be --with-scintilla=~/scintilla. however the calling shell will not expand tilde and the invoked shell will not automatically fully expand variables.
2013-01-31fixed bootstrapping using sciteco-minimal and bootstrap autodetectionRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
was broken due to untested changes
2013-01-27moved manpage to doc/ subdirRobin Haberkorn1-1/+1
later there will be much more documentation
2013-01-23generate manpage sciteco(1) using a TECO macro included in the MakefileRobin Haberkorn1-5/+5
allows including the currently chosen PREFIX * also removed sciteco_datadir variable (pkgdatadir defined by Automake is sufficient)
2013-01-20added manpage highlighting program invocation and batch modeRobin Haberkorn1-0/+1
language and commands will be described in separate documents
2012-12-04bootstrapping of build process using preinstalled scitecoRobin Haberkorn1-1/+12
* will also enable crosscompiling SciTECO: first sciteco (or sciteco-minimal) is built for the host platform, then the target binary is built using the host sciteco
2012-12-04additional minor changes: distribution building now possibleRobin Haberkorn1-5/+7
2012-12-04first working version of autotools based build-systemRobin Haberkorn1-0/+142
