7 gcalctool change history - 1991.
8 ================================
10 v3.2 - patchlevel 24. 31st December 1991.
12 * Calctool ignored the -fg and -bg color command line options when
13 painting the calctool canvases. Calctool has lots of X resources
14 to allow you to set the color of different items. If -fg and/or
15 -bg is present, they now override these X resources as follows:
17 deskset.calctool.decDigitColor: not changed
18 deskset.calctool.hexDigitColor: not changed
19 deskset.calctool.arithOpColor: not changed
20 deskset.calctool.adjustColor: not changed
21 deskset.calctool.portionColor: not changed
22 deskset.calctool.functionColor: not changed
23 deskset.calctool.mainModeColor: not changed
24 deskset.calctool.portionLogicalColor: not changed
25 deskset.calctool.bitLogicalColor: not changed
26 deskset.calctool.finColor: not changed
27 deskset.calctool.trigModeColor: not changed
28 deskset.calctool.trigColor: not changed
29 deskset.calctool.sciColor: not changed
30 deskset.calctool.backgroundColor: background color
31 deskset.calctool.displayColor: background color
32 deskset.calctool.memRegisterColor: background color
33 deskset.calctool.textColor: foreground color
35 The -reverse command line option switches the foreground and
36 background colors. Fixes bug #1077714.
40 v3.2 - patchlevel 23. 31st December 1991.
42 * Calctool didn't allow the user to set an alternative calctool icon
43 image via the -icon_image command line option. Calctool checks if
44 the image filename given exists and is readable. If it isn't, then
45 it displays an error message and the generic XView usage message
46 and exits. If the file does exist, but isn't an icon file, then
47 XView silently ignores it. Perhaps a bug should be opened against
48 xview/library, to generate an error message for such a case. Fixes
53 v3.2 - patchlevel 22. 30th December 1991.
55 * Calctool tries to localise the command line text strings. This is
56 incorrect. Created a new routine called init_cmdline_opts(),
57 which initialises the command line options (instead of in init_text(),
58 and gets called before init_Xvars(). The search for -name is also
59 done before init_Xvars(), because the xv_init() call strips it out.
60 write_cmdline() was also writing out the -name command line option
61 (if present) for a "Save Workspace". As this is now a generic XView
62 tool command line argument, this is no longer needed. Fixes bug
67 v3.2 - patchlevel 21. 27th December 1991.
69 * Calctool didn't allow you to set the icon label with the
70 -icon_label command line option. Fixes bug #1077710.
74 v3.2 - patchlevel 20. 27th December 1991.
76 * Incorrect parameters to the -size command line argument
77 (ie. -size fubar) caused the tool to hang whilst trying to parse
78 it's command line arguments. In fact, any command line argument
79 that didn't start with - or + would cause it to hang.
81 An XView error procedure has been added to calctool. This is
82 called whenever there is an XView error. Invalid command line
83 arguments that cause XView errors will cause this routine to be
84 called. An attempt is made to try to determine if this is the case
85 (as opposed to an XView error at a later stage in the game). In the
86 former case, the error message is printed out, followed by the
87 XView usage message (equivalent of -help), then the program exits.
88 If calctool has already started (v->started = 1), then if the
89 error procedure is called, then calctool will print the error
90 message and try to resume, and hope the error is recoverable.
95 v3.2 - patchlevel 19. 27th December 1991.
97 * Calctool didn't handle the command line option -size correctly if
98 one of the two size parameters was too small. It automatically
99 reset to the smallest size for both width and height. Calctool has
100 now been changed to one adjust the single dimension that was too
101 small. Fixes bug #1077705.
105 v3.2 - patchlevel 18. 24th December 1991.
107 * Problems with the -title option. If you specified -title '' then
108 calctool wasn't displaying a blank titleline. Note that the XView
109 defaults_get_string() call strips off leading and trailing spaces.
110 Under SVR4, specifying a titleline, caused a core dump. This was
111 due to tool_label not being initially set to NULL in make_frames().
116 v3.2 - patchlevel 17. 24th December 1991.
118 * calctool ignores -font <fontname> on the command line. To be more
119 correct, this font is only used in the XView panel popups such as
120 the property sheet, the constant and function windows and the Asc
121 window. Calctool can use upto four different fonts; these can be
122 set via X resources, and are:
124 deskset.calctool.buttonFont: button labels.
125 deskset.calctool.modeFont: mode line labels.
126 deskset.calctool.memoryFont: memory window popup text.
127 deskset.calctool.displayFont: display line font.
129 It is assumed that specifying a font using either the -font or -fn
130 command line option will override *all* of these. In other words,
131 this means that all text will be drawn in that font. Not a perfect
132 solution. Fixes bug #1077704.
136 v3.2 - patchlevel 16. 24th December 1991.
138 * If the user is displaying in fixed point mode, and the number is
139 smaller then the current degree of accuracy, then the number is
140 displayed to the number of numeric places specified, and not
141 converted to scientific notation. Fixes bug #1077703.
145 v3.2 - patchlevel 15. 23rd December 1991.
147 * The memory register popup window was being incorrectly repainted.
148 The width value for the amount of background to be colored was
149 incorrect. Particularily noticable with colored background and
150 non-standard fonts. Fixes bug #1077541.
154 v3.2 - patchlevel 14. 23rd December 1991.
156 * Converting 0.00 (decimal) to binary resulted in 0.10. The problem
157 here was the MPstr_to_num() routine in display.c was assuming the
158 string to be converted was always in the current base. Added an
159 extra parameter to the MPstr_to_num() call; the base to use to do
160 the conversion. Fixes #1077537.
164 v3.2 - patchlevel 13. 23rd December 1991.
166 * The result of the online help example for the financial Pmt
167 calculation was incorrect. It should have been 1142.06 (to two
168 decimal places), and not 1142.29. All financial online help
169 example results are now given correct to 2DP. This involved
170 adjustments to Ctrm, Fv, Pv, Sln, Syd and Term. Fixes bugs
171 #1077534 and #1077718.
175 v3.2 - patchlevel 12. 23rd December 1991.
177 * Added in help attributes for each of the items on the Asc, Constant
178 and Function popups. The following new entries were added to the
197 v3.2 - patchlevel 11. 23rd December 1991.
199 * Fixed up the help entries in the calctool.info file for the Con and
200 Fun menus. They needed a trailing space, ie: "Con " and "Fun ".
201 Added in XV_HELP_DATA attributes for all the other calctool menus:
202 Acc, Base, Disp, Exch, Mode, Properties, Rcl, Sto, Trig, < and >.
203 Added an entry for the properties menu (:Props) to the calctool.info
204 file. Fixes bugs #1077525 and #1077526.
208 v3.2 - patchlevel 10. 23rd December 1991.
210 * Calctool man pages didn't mention the -? and -name options.
211 Noted with the -? entry that this needs to be escaped when used
212 with the csh, ie. -\?
214 Adjusted the order of the entries in the usage message to match
217 Moved the code in calctool that looked for "-name", before the
218 call to xv_init(XV_INIT_ARGC_PTR_ARGV, argc, argv, ... which
219 removes it from the program command line. Fixes bug #1077524.
223 v3.2 - patchlevel 9. 11th December 1991.
225 * Ifdef'ed XmbDrawString for painting multibyte characters on canvas.
226 Routine changed is draw_text() in xview.c. Fixes bugid #1076798.
228 Relative positioning for the "Apply", "Set Default", and "Reset"
229 buttons on the property sheet.
233 v3.2 - patchlevel 8. 22nd November 1991.
235 * If you pressed the middle mouse button when holding the right
236 mouse button down, when the cursor was positioned in the display
237 portion of the main calctool window, then you got the following
240 XView warning: Notifier error: Too many interposition functions
242 Fixes bugid #1075270.
246 v3.2 - patchlevel 7. 20th November 1991.
248 * Calctool would not allow you to enter "big" numbers like:
249 336341050452.2 The previous version of calctool represented
250 numbers internally in doubles, and checked against a certain
251 number of digits (depending upon the current radix). After a
252 certain number, internally accuracy would be lost. With v3.2
253 of calctool, internal accuracy is represented with "infinite"
254 precision, and this test can be removed. Fixes bugid #1075198.
258 v3.2 - patchlevel 6. 5th November 1991.
260 * Changed the MP routines pow_di and pow_ri to mppow_di and mppow_ri,
261 to get calctool to compile under jup_alpha5.
265 v3.2 - patchlevel 5. 1st November 1991.
267 * Overflow and underflow could still lock up calctool. Stricter tests
268 have been added to make_number() and do_factorial. There might be
269 other places where this is needed. Fixes bug #1073459. Roll on V4!
273 v3.2 - patchlevel 4. 4th September 1991.
275 * To try and remain consistent with the look&feel of the V3 calctool
276 (even though calctool now has "infinite" precision internal
277 arithmetic), the MP result of each calculation is converted into a
278 double before it is displayed. If the number is larger (or smaller)
279 then what can be correctly placed in a double, than an error is
280 generated. What was happening was that the "Error" string displayed
281 in the calculator display was getting overwritten by the converted
282 MP value. It's now been adjusted to not overwrite, if the error
283 indicator is set. All this can be adjusted for V4.
287 v3.2 - patchlevel 3. 28th August 1991.
289 * Changed the definition of abs() in calctool.h to C_abs(), and
290 adjusted the code accordingly. This should allow calctool to now
291 correctly compile under SVR4 jup_alpha3.
295 v3.2 - patchlevel 2. 19th August 1991.
297 * Fixed up the calculation of base 10 logarithms. It no longer relies
298 on an imprecise constant.
302 v3.2 - patchlevel 1. 19th August 1991.
304 * Added in "infinite" precision, using the Richard Brent MP routines.
305 These were originally written in FORTRAN but have been converted to
306 C (using f2c), and tidied up, placing the resulting routines in the
307 new mp.c. Results now displayed are exact, to the given degree of
308 accuracy. Fixes bug #1039759.
310 * When you Clr the display now, it display zero in the appropriate
311 representation; fixed, scientific or engineering.
315 v3.2 - patchlevel 0. 31st July 1991.
317 * Incremented version number. Reset patchlevel.
319 * Modified the factorial function. A factorial of 0 now returns 1.
320 Trying to do a factorial on a negative or non-integer number now
321 results in an error. The calctool man pages have been modified to
322 mention that that the factorial function is only valid for positive
323 integers. Fixes bug #1065280.
325 * When memory was being allocated for the v data object, it was not
326 being cleared, resulting in certain values being used before they
329 * When entering numbers with the mouse, calctool incorrectly displayed
330 and handled the left parenthesis. Fixes bug #1065388.
332 * The sequence ((1+1)) was resulting in 1 instead of 2. Fixes bugs
333 #1065697 and #1065571.
335 * If calctool is being run in click-to-type mode, and input focus is
336 on the mode popup, it was not possible to currently change modes
337 using the menu on the Mode button in the main calctool window.
342 v3.1 - patchlevel 50. 23rd July 1991.
344 * Calctool did not correctly set minimum size frame hints. This is
345 the same problem as bugid 1065155 (reported against perfmeter and clock).
349 v3.1 - patchlevel 49. 19th July 1991.
351 * Fixed a bug where it was possible to leave a calctool button
352 inverted if dragging the left mouse button from the calctool
353 button area, into the display area.
355 * The -name option is only written to the saved command line if the
356 user specified it on the command line initially.
358 * Added in support for a titleline for calctool, through the standard
359 -Wl, -title or -label options.
361 * Modified the command line option parsing in get_options(). Instead of
362 parsing the command line options, looking for options where the user
363 might have set the calctool size, init_Xvars() now strips out the
364 XView/X specific command line arguments, and calctool checks on user
365 size and scale with calls to defaults_exists(). This means that
366 xv_parse_one() is no longer needed; the original reason for doing all
369 * Handling on the calctool button labels has been adjusted to try
370 to allow for longer strings which would probably be needed for
371 the international versions. The hooks are all in there, but the
372 I18N equivalent code needs to be rewritten, then bugid 1062858 can
373 be closed. Here are some notes taken from one of the comments in
376 Some notes for translators:
378 Text in the label strings below, should be left justified. It will
379 automatically be centre justified in the buttons, but various
380 calculations depend on the text starting on the left.
382 The original English V3 version was written with fixed (upto) four
383 character button labels. I've tried to extend this to allow any sized
384 labels, however the following conditions apply:
386 - If the label won't fit in the button, then as much as possible will
387 be shown, with the last character being '>'. If you enlarge the
388 calculator, probably more of the label will show.
390 - If the last character of the label is a '.', and this is not the
391 first character of the label (ie, the numeric point label), then
392 calctool knows that this signifies that this label should have two
393 more '.' characters appended to it (ie, "Mem." becomes "Mem...").
395 - If a calctool button has a menu item glyph associated with it, the
396 width of this glyph is taken into consideration, and the amount of
397 the label that can be displayed is adjusted accordingly.
401 v3.1 - patchlevel 48. 18th July 1991.
403 * Replaced the WIN_CMD_LINE call with the new ICCCM compliant
404 FRAME_WM_COMMAND_ARGC_ARGV stuff, rewriting write_cmdline
409 v3.1 - patchlevel 47. 11th July 1991.
411 * The -geometry and -Ws width and height values were not being
412 correctly used. Thus it was not always possible for the user
413 to set a preferred initial size.
417 v3.1 - patchlevel 46. 11th July 1991.
419 * The window manager does not read the NormalHints property until the
420 frame comes out of it's withdrawn state. So minimal size hints are
421 now set when we've had the first valid canvas repaint. Bugid 1064024
426 v3.1 - patchlevel 45. 4th July 1991.
428 * Added ICON_TRANSPARENT, TRUE, to the calctool icon creation, to
429 correctly generate a transparent icon.
433 v3.1 - patchlevel 44. 1st July 1991.
435 * Adjusted one of the examples in the calctool.info file:
445 v3.1 - patchlevel 43. 24th June 1991.
447 * Adjusted the font names used by calctool from:
449 lucidasanstypewriter-10 format
453 -b&h-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-*-*-*-100-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1 format.
455 * Added in the ability to select a portion of the calctool display,
456 by using the left mouse button (to select), and the middle mouse
457 button (to adjust). This can then be used in a Copy/Paste operation.
458 Selection/adjustment via dragging is permitted, and double-clicking
459 inside the display area will hilite the full display value.
461 Bugid 1055425 can be closed.
465 v3.1 - patchlevel 42. 13th June 1991.
467 * The calctool "buttons" are now highlighted, when the equivalent
468 keyboard input is pressed. Rfe 1062016 can be closed.
472 v3.1 - patchlevel 41. 12th June 1991.
474 * The Cut (L10) key is now synonymous with the Copy (L6) key. This
475 will make the calctool display value the current primary selection.
476 This problem comes from bugid 1055425.
478 * Using keyboard input, it was possible to cause calctool to core dump
479 by typing an invalid mode letter, and when the "broken" mode window
480 appeared, by selecting one of the invalid keys.
484 v3.1 - patchlevel 40. 11th June 1991.
486 * Added in ANSI prototypes for each calctool routine.
490 v3.1 - patchlevel 39. 7th May 1991.
492 * Fixed up the alignment of the panel items on the property sheet,
493 removing the large blank area near the top left.
497 v3.1 - patchlevel 38. 7th May 1991.
499 * The "Save settings as the default" property item has been removed,
500 and the row of three buttons on the bottom now look like:
502 (Apply) (Set Default) (Reset)
504 The (Defaults) button has gone. The (Set Default) button is the
505 proper OPEN LOOK way of doing the same as "Save settings as the
508 * The main calctool frame now has minimal size hints at creation
509 time, so it's impossible to shrink below it's smallest allowed size.
513 v3.1 - patchlevel 37. 2nd May 1991.
515 * Changes needed to get calctool to work under SVR4 (Zeus). There are
516 no SVR4 specifics; the same code runs unchanged under both SunOS
521 v3.1 - patchlevel 36. 30th April 1991.
523 * The calctool icon is now retained. This prevents flashing when
524 another window is dragged over it when OpenWindows.DragWindow:
529 v3.1 - patchlevel 35. 29th April 1991.
531 * The calctool button labels are are created using read_str() instead
532 of STRCPY'ing to an array of 5 characters. This doesn't work in
533 multi-byte per character environments.
537 v3.1 - patchlevel 34. 29th April 1991.
539 * The calctool icon now correctly uses the foreground and background
540 colors. Bugid 1051860 can be closed.
544 v3.1 - patchlevel 33. 27th April 1991.
546 * Modified all the text string initialisations in text.c to use the
547 LGET() and MGET() macro's. Wendy tells me this now works for sundae.
549 * Changed the definition for the calctool button strings from char *str
550 to char str[5]. This is needed because the dgettext() strings are now
551 read only, and the calctool buttons strings can change, so they have
554 * If an entry was added or changed in either the constant or the
555 function menus, the new menu wasn't being recreated.
557 * Calctool correctly displays on the NCD terminal.
561 v3.1 - patchlevel 32. 26th April 1991.
563 * Moved the call to init_text() in do_calctool() to after the call
564 to init_Xvar(). The call to xv_init() needs to be done before the
565 calls to dgettext(). Bugid's 1056298 and 1056806 can be closed.
567 * The strings generated by dgettext are now read only. They shouln't
568 be modified in any way. The check for menu items greater then 45
569 characters long has been removed. This XView problem is now fixed,
570 and because of the read-only strings, is no longer possible.
574 v3.1 - patchlevel 31. 26th April 1991.
576 * Ran calctool through Saber-C and fixed up discrepancies.
578 * Calctool now appears to work correctly on 24bit screens.
579 There were three problems:
581 - calctool was crashing in xv_destroy(). What was happening was the
582 frame event handler was getting a resize event before the canvas
583 repaint handler has been properly called.
585 - Should have been using GXclear and XCopyArea to clear the offscreen
586 calctool "button" server images (pixmaps).
588 - the server images for manipulationg that offscreen buttons should
589 have been using a foreground of 1 and a background of 0 (not
590 BlackPixel() and WhitePixel()). Thanks to Darren Austin for finding
593 Bugid 1056788 can be closed.
594 Bugid 1054340 is against SunView, but has been fixed in OW v3.0(FCS).
596 * Calctool now appears to work correctly in the 4bit and 8bit color
597 visuals on the 24bit screen. The problem here was that several
598 graphics contexts and scratch pixmaps were been created with an xid
599 of the root window instead of the calctool main window. The default
600 depth of the screen is differwent from the depth of the visual.
602 * Resizes are now correctly handled. Not all resize events are really
603 changes in size, so the current width and height are compared against
604 the new width and height, and if there is no change, then no resize
605 is done. Checking the frame sizes is now done with an xv_get()
606 on FRAME_OPEN_RECT (which works), instead of a frame_get_rect().
607 Bugid 1057636 can be closed.
608 Rfe 1052050 can be closed. Calctool redraws a *lot* quicker now.
610 * Changed the label on the Chs button to +/-. This means the help
611 key for the button now works (part of bugid 1057794).
615 v3.1 - patchlevel 30. 23rd April 1991.
617 * Added in the right numeric function keyboard handling from Stuart
618 Marks (thanks Stuart!). This is the correct way to handle the
619 numeric keyboard, and gets rid of all the sloppy stuff I originally
620 had. The three resources:
622 deskset.calctool.sun3Keyboard:
623 deskset.calctool.sun4Keyboard:
624 deskset.calctool.numericKeypad:
626 have been removed. The manual pages have been adjusted accordingly.
630 v3.1 - patchlevel 29. 18th April 1991.
632 * The sequence of keys 10 - 30 "sin" = was not producing the correct
633 effect. For some reason, v->cur_op was being set to the current
634 character ("sin"). I've removed this. The worrying thing, is why
635 was this there in the first place? Bugid 1056216 can be closed.
637 * Dragging with the left mouse button over certain calctool "keys"
638 such as Con and Fun, resulted in illegal xv_get()'s. This is
639 because the appropriate menu hadn't been made.
641 * Certain operators that have control character keyboard equivalents
642 weren't being handled inside parentheses properly.
646 v3.1 - patchlevel 28. 17th April 1991.
648 * Calctool has been modified so that most calctool specific warning
649 messages from the acc compiler have been eliminated.
653 v3.1 - patchlevel 27. 16th April 1991.
655 * Added in a routine to save the user supplied command line options.
656 These options are also saved to the WIN_CMD_LINE whenever they are
657 adjusted via the property sheet. The -Wn and +Wn options are also
658 saved. These options are then correctly placed in ~/.openwin-init
659 when the user does a "Save Workspace". Bugid 1056934 can be closed.
663 v3.1 - patchlevel 26. 12th April 1991.
665 * Various changes to improve calctool memory usage. Resources such
666 as the property sheet, the menus are not created until they are
669 * No longer assume the default keyboard is a Sun4. In other words if
670 the ioctl doesn't say it's a sun3 or a sun4 keyboard, then calctool
671 wont't attempt to setup a right-hand numeric keypad.
673 Add in another X resource:
675 deskset.calctool.numericKeypad: False
677 which if set to false, won't setup a numeric keypad (irrespective
678 of the results from above.
680 * Added in yet another X resource:
682 deskset.calctool.sun3Keyboard: False
684 * Calctool no longer assumes that the keyboard is a Sun4 keyboard by
685 default. The ioctl has got to be successful to determine if it's
686 a Sun3 or a Sun4 keyboard. If this doesn't happen, then no right
687 numeric keypad is setup.
691 v3.1 - patchlevel 25. 20th March 1991.
693 * Changed all occurances of DefaultColormap to:
695 xv_get(xv_get(frame, WIN_CMS), CMS_CMAP_ID) ;
699 v3.1 - patchlevel 24. 18th March 1991.
701 * On a color screen (4bit or 8bit), if calctool can't allocate all
702 the colors, it tries to cook up a special colormap using black,
703 white, the workspace color, the default window color, a shade of
704 gray (for the 3D button inversion), plus the tools foreground and
705 background colors. The only new color should be the shade of grey.
706 If we can't get that, or if this all fails for some other reason,
707 then return FALSE, forcing calctool to monochrome.
708 Color palette indices will be:
710 C_WHITE = white pixel color.
711 C_BLACK = black pixel color.
713 C_BACK = workspace color.
714 C_DISPCOL = tool background color.
715 C_MEMORY = tool background color.
716 C_TEXT = tool foreground color.
717 the rest will be the window color.
721 v3.1 - patchlevel 23. 13th March 1991.
723 * Another new X resource has been added:
725 deskset.calctool.sun4Keyboard: true
727 which will allow the user to override the default keyboard type,
728 which is normally determined by doing an ioctl on /dev/kbd. This
729 is for situations where the calctool program is running on a
730 machine which has a different keyboard type then where the tool is
733 * The XView event handler has been adjusted to correctly handle the
734 numeric 6 key on the right function pad. Pressing this key now
735 generates an ACTION_GO_CHAR_FORWARD event, and this was being
736 incorrectly taken as Control-F (Frac) on the down press.
738 * Calctool now compiles, links and successfully runs with acc, if
739 you ignore the warning messages.
743 v3.1 - patchlevel 22. 8th March 1991.
745 * Various control-character events are no longer recognised as ascii
746 events, but instead generate action events. The following have been
747 noticed, and the get_next_event() routine in xview.c has been
748 adjusted to correctly handle this.:
750 Control-a - ACTION_GO_LINE_BACKWARD
751 Control-f - ACTION_GO_CHAR_FORWARD
752 Control-u - ACTION_ERASE_LINE_BACKWARD
754 * The calctool manual pages have been adjusted to correctly detail
755 the Asc keyboard accelerator.
757 * The default startup mode for color machines, unless specified on
758 the command line or via an X resource, has been changed to 2D. This
759 will repaint faster to the screen.
763 v3.1 - patchlevel 21. 28th February 1991.
765 * The canvas event handler for calctool has been modified to call
766 notify_next_event_func. The menu_show() call now uses the canvas
767 paint window as its' second argument, and not the canvas itself.
768 This now correctly allows menus that have been MENU clicked up,
769 to correct accept the SELECT mouse button.
770 Bugid 1035658 can be closed.
774 v3.1 - patchlevel 20. 27th February 1991.
776 * Added in a routine that compresses repaint events. This should speed
777 up calctool repaint fractionally.
779 * Another X resource has been added:
781 deskset.calctool.beep: true
783 which, if set to false, suppresses the beep sound in the event of
784 an error (such as invalid input, or if the display needs to be
787 The beep sound has been added for such error conditions.
791 v3.1 - patchlevel 19. 15th February 1991.
793 * The fontnames variables were not being initialised to NULL.
797 v3.1 - patchlevel 18. 15th February 1991.
799 * Have added in four new X resources, to allow you to specify the
800 fonts used to display text with calctool:
802 deskset.calctool.buttonFont:
803 deskset.calctool.modeFont:
804 deskset.calctool.memoryFont:
805 deskset.calctool.displayFont:
807 Normally calctool will use the lucidasanstypewriter font and pick a
808 font size depending upon the scale and size of the calctool window.
809 This would be for the button and memory fonts, with the mode font
810 2 points smaller and the display font two points bigger. If the tool
811 is resized, then the font sizes are adjusted accordingly.
813 If any of the above X resources are used, then this no longer happens,
814 and the new font names are always in effect irrespective of scale or
817 The manual pages have been updated.
821 v3.1 - patchlevel 17. 14th February 1991.
823 * Have rewritten parentheses handling so that the parenthesis
824 expression is not calculated until the last matching bracket has
825 been entered. This now allows backspace to be easily and correctly
830 v3.1 - patchlevel 16. 27th January 1991.
832 * Adjusted the property sheet. Moved the "Save calculator settings" to
833 the bottom, and called it:
835 Save settings as the default: [no][yes]
837 If this property item is set to yes, then the current calctool
838 settings are written to the ~/.desksetdefaults file when the user
839 selects the Apply, Reset or Defaults buttons. This makes it
840 compatible with clock and perfmeter.
842 * All the new property sheet items have had their help information
843 added to the calctool.info file.
845 * Added in the command line option: -name app-name
847 This option specifies the application name under which resources are
848 to be obtained, rather than the default executable file name.
850 * Found and fixed one more case related to bugid 1049453, which was
851 mainly fixed in patch #15.
853 * All popup windows have been adjusted so that the pushpin is not in
858 v3.1 - patchlevel 15 - 23rd January 1991.
860 * Removed redundant code in xview.c that was put there to try to fix
861 the Sun4 Ins key problem, which no longer appears to be a problem.
863 * If the user presses a calctool button which has a window
864 associated with it (Asc or Mem), and that window is already displayed,
865 or if the user make a selection from a menu, and that would bring up
866 a window, but that window is already displayed, then the window is
867 popped to the top. This fixes bugid 1049453 which can now be closed.
871 v3.1 - patchlevel 14 - 18th January 1991.
873 * The Delete key was working incorrectly with a Sun3 keyboard.
875 * The Ins key on a Sun4 keyboard no longer works with the latest OW
876 V3 builds. A workaround would be to set the Ins key appropriately
877 depending upon whether the calctool program currently has the
878 keyboard focus. Unfortunately I don't know the magic keycode number
879 to use to define the Ins key. The code has been written. When that
880 magic number is found the INSFUNKEY definition in xview.c should be
881 set appropriately, and the call to set_ins_key() in xview.c
882 uncommented. For now, an entry has been added to the TODO file.
884 * The dynamic calctool resizing hasn't been working. Calctool no
885 longer seems to get WIN_RESIZE events when the main calctool frame
886 is resized. To try to "fix" this up, an event interpose routine
887 for the main calctool frame has been added. It then tries to set the
888 canvas size accordingly, and resize all the graphics objects, such
889 as the offscreen server images for the buttons and the text fonts.
891 With the introduction of the interpose routine to fix the resizing,
892 occasionally there are strips of foreground color to the right and
893 below in the various calctool windows.
895 A much better and simpler solution would be to find out why calctool
896 no longer gets WIN_RESIZE events on the canvas. All this used to
897 work; the code to handle resize events on the canvas has been written
