-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2014-1933 2014-07-20 17:20:47 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : vttest Product : Fedora EPEL 6 Version : 20140305 Release : 1.el6 URL : http://invisible-island.net/vttest/vttest.html Summary : Test the compatibility of so-called "VT100-compatible" terminals Description : vttest is a program to test the compatibility (or to demonstrate the non-compatibility) of so-called "VT100-compatible" terminals.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
20140305 * save/restore color enable-flag for menu 11.6 in a couple of places so that the ISO-6429 tests do not reset it unexpectedly. * amend the REP test to not reset colors if it happens to be run via the menu entry for BCE-related tests.
20140116 * cosmetic changes (suggested by Itay Chamiel): * clear screen just before resetting SCS in menu #3 character sets, in case a VT100 emulator does not simply ignore VT220 G2/G3 selections when it does not implement them. * add check for maximum operating level before deciding whether to send a DECSCL to set it to VT100-level. * adjust starting point of items for menu #9 "Test of known bugs" to avoid overwriting part of the description of the test. * add configure check for -Wlogical-op to gcc-warnings * update config.guess, config.sub
20130915 * when NRCS is active, suppress ISO Latin-1 from menu to avoid confusion with British NRCS. * do not highlight ISO Latin-1 for NRCS, since it is a 96-character set, not applicable to NRCS. * correct position of ruler for SD and REP screens, which obscured the result. * expand menu 11.6.6 to demonstrate bce with top-level menus 1 and 2 in addition to the existing menu 8. * correct description for DA response 24; it denotes VT320. * correct highlighting for French NRC mapping; "`" is not mapped. * add port-files from FreeBSD for test-builds. * add highlighting information for VT320 Portuguese NRC mapping. * add highlighting information for VT220 DEC Supplemental NRC mapping. * updated configure-macros to add msys changes from ncurses 20130907. * update config.guess, config.sub
20130818 * modify character-sets screens to optionally highlight the characters which do not correspond to ISO-8859-1. This makes the National Replacement Characters easier to see. * modify DSR cursor-position report to check if the terminal accounts for origin-mode. * support --datarootdir option in makefile.in, to match configure script updates. * updated configure macros: * change from byacc for autoheader * improved checks for gcc attributes * improved checks for gcc version * miscellaneous fixes in CF_XOPEN_SOURCE * update config.guess, config.sub
20120603 * change cursor-position before IL/DL in "Test of VT102-style features with BCE (Insert/Delete Char/Line)" to demonstrate whether the terminal sets the cursor to the first column as a side-effect, as noted in VT220 reference manual.
20120506 * build-fix in case compiler does not recognize gcc's __attribute__. * modify vt420 rectangle menu to allow testing with applications which misreport their operating level, e.g., Reflection which states that it is a vt340. The menu title shows "should not work" if the terminal says its operating level is below VT4xx. * add menu-entries for DECOM/DECLRMM to vt420 rectangle menu. * add menu-entries for DECOM/DECLRMM to vt420 cursor-movement menu. * add menu-entries for DECOM/DECLRMM to vt420 editing-controls menu. * add HPR and VPR test-screens. * add vt520 cursor-movement menu; most of the vt520's new features were based on ISO-6429 but allow for DECOM and DECLRMM interactions. * implement DECSCPP and DECSLPP test-screens. * add test-screen for DECNCSM. * add "-s" command-line option to initialize the time-delay feature. * add setup-menu feature to control whether a time delay is added in selected repeated cursor-movement and scrolling operations to make their behavior easier to see. * correct scanning of DECCKSR response; result is hexadecimal not decimal. * modify menu functions to provide for multipage menus, e.g., in the character set choices for vt420 and vt520 on a 24-line screen. * modify tests related to left/right margins to allow color to be set, as xterm-feature. * add test-screen for index/reverse index with left/right margins. * ensure that status-line is turned off when exiting status-line test. * add test-screen for VT420 & up for ASCII formatting controls with margins. * modify DECFI/DECBI tests to work with margins. * add menu entries for setting/showing the top/bottom and left/right margins, to modify the behavior of the DECIC/DECDC tests. * add menu entries for setting/showing DECLRMM state, needed for DECIC/DECDC tests. * change mnemomic DECVSSM to DECLRMM to reflect the latter's usage in vt420 and vt510 manuals. * modify DECRQSS test for DECSCUSR to show if the response is as expected.
20111210 * modify mouse menu's selection of coordinate mode to include xterm's 1006 and urxvt's 1015 controls. * add menu entry to allow miscellaneous ECMA-48 such as SD/SU to be tested with colors.
20110705 * fill in DEC mnemonics on some menus.
20110516 * fix inchar() function to work properly with big-endian machines (patch by David Kutalek).
20110506 * add some VT520-level menus, e.g., for DSR, DECRQSS. * add VT220 test for DSR Operating Status Report. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
