Muller : +Fix 50-move counter in ICS mode + +Marking irreversible moves in the EP_STATUS did not work in ICS mode, +as ApplyMove,which did that is never executed there. Only the boards +sent by ICS are displayed,especially in observing mode. Now the status is +derived from the ICS mov strings (x in the SAN move, or P in the long move. + +2012-02-26 17:18:39 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Fix piece symbols on switch back to variant normal + +Variant switches were not properly detected, meaning the variable pieces +could keep a form belonging to a previous variant. (E.g. Queen remained +a Lance image after switching from shogi to normal.) + +2012-02-26 14:07:50 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Keep XBoard windows attached on resize + +Windows attached to bottom or right are displaced with the size increase. +Their perpendicular dimension is also scaled, to keep their edges at the same +fraction of the main window, unless they stick out. In the latter case the +fraction is clipped to 1, so that edge moves with the full size increase. + +2012-02-25 22:40:56 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Implement -stickyWindows in XBoard + +This makes the auxiliary windows move with the main window when they were +touching, as in WinBoard. A control is added in the General Options dialog. + +2012-02-25 21:14:03 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Use more reliable X-call for getting window position + +XtGetValues on XtNx, XtNy is unreliable. XGetWindowAttributes seems +to give more reliable results, and automatically accounts for the width +of window dressing. The -frameX/Y options are no longer needed bcause +of this, and were removed. + +2012-02-25 11:55:19 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Make frame width configurable in XB + +New persistent options -frameX, -frameY now can be used to specify +the amount by which Xt lies about the window coordinates. + +2012-02-23 20:01:55 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Undo translation of cps->which = first/second + +The string in cps->which should not be translated, because it goes into +the debug file to label engine I/O, and many tools for processing +debug files (broadcasters, PGN extractors) rely on this being "first" or +"second". In all contexts where "first" and "second" need to be translated, +cps->which itself is already enclosed in _(). + +2012-02-22 18:27:40 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Delete some load-game debug printing + +The debug printing in Disambiguate was no longer needed. The printing +of the started process in XBoard that went to stderr is now diverted +to debugFP, so it ends up in the debug file. + +2012-02-16 14:41:43 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Move change of debug file to before game load + +Loading a game from -lgf is done before TwoMachinesEvent is called, +but logically belongs to the game. So the code to switch to the new +debug file for the game is moved to NextMatchGame now. + +2012-02-16 14:09:54 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix button grab for sweep selection + +The piece-menu initialization limited the grab of button events to those +occurring inside the board window (presumably intended to limit them to +the piece menu, but that does not pop up in sweep-selection mode). +This is now suppressed when -pieceMenu is off, so that selection continues +outside the the board. (Which is very convenient for pieces pu close to the +edge.) + +2012-02-16 13:16:13 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Don't leave piece selected after piece menu + +PieceMenuEvent left the just introduced piece selected, which is almost +never what one wants, as it makes it jump to the next square when selects. +Which is especially annoying if it captures the piece you wanted to grab... + +2012-02-16 12:57:47 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix use of middle button for position setup + +With sweep selection the actual drop is made on releasing the button, +and this event was not caught for button 2. Button-2 motion events were +also not caught by the sweep-selection handler. + +2012-02-16 23:53:08 +0100 Byrial Jensen : +Fix one more typo in the translator comments explaning "first" and "second" + + +2012-02-16 23:39:32 +0100 Byrial Jensen : +Fix typo in translator comments explaning "first" and "second" + + +2012-02-16 23:23:20 +0100 Byrial Jensen : +Add args.h to POTFILES.in and change the interface to ExitArgError() so msg is c format string + +Having msg as a format string will ease translations because then +badArg doesn't have to come last. + +2012-02-16 22:51:44 +0100 Byrial Jensen : +Mark the strings "first" and "sencond" for translation. + +... and assign the translated strings to cps->which in function InitEngine() + +2012-02-16 18:42:10 +0100 Byrial Jensen : +Use ngettext() instead of gettext() for a string to allow better translation. + + +2012-02-16 00:19:59 -0800 Arun Persaud : +translation: updated uk.po + + +2012-02-15 20:59:09 -0800 Arun Persaud : +modified configure and makefile for handling mimedb update + +the default configure will install them using the xdg commands (if they exist on the system) + +2012-02-13 22:29:48 -0800 Arun Persaud : +add configure test for xdg-programs to install mime types; can be disabled for building of e.g. rpms + +in case the target system doesn't have the xdg-programs available, we test for them. +Distributions often have their own macros to install these, so we add an enable option to configure + +2012-02-13 22:05:26 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Leave height of row that only contains buttons free + +All elements of the GenericPopUp are still scaled to the text height, +including buttons appended behind them (browse or color buttons). +But we now make an exception for a row that only contains buttons, +as there is no harm in it being a little higher (and the buttons look +prettier that way). + +2012-02-12 00:01:24 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix OK button of error popup + +The error dialog popped up as a child of the board window, even when +DisplayError was called from a dialog. Now it checks if a transient +dialog is up, and if so, it pops up as a child of that, grabs focus, +and suppresses the system popdown of the transient dialog through a flag +dialogError until it is popped down itself. + +2012-02-11 20:07:39 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Fix switching animation masks on variant switch + +The masks for variant-dependent piees (E,H in Seirawan, promoted Golds +in Shogi, the Gothic Chancellor) were no longer updated in InitDrawingSizes +because of the patch to reduce X-server calls. + +2012-02-11 16:46:58 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Configure wider game list + +The game list was by default too small, so that there was no room for the +filter field. Now a width of 500 is specified, whcih works at -size 49 +as well as 72. + +2012-02-11 16:29:06 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix button chaining and combo/textbox label height + +Previous patches forgot to specify the height for the text labels on +-combo and -text options, so they were still too high. Buttons that go +on the same line as the previous element should be chained right, not rubber. + +2012-02-11 15:52:52 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Make -pgnNumberTag option setable from menu + +The Save Options dialog now containes a checkbox for this. + +2012-02-11 15:48:52 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Configure some new features switched on + +The master settings file switches -showTargetSquares, -sweepPromotions +and -seekGraph on, so that they will get more testing. + +2012-02-11 14:43:53 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix heigth of multi-line labels + +The previous height patch overlooked that some labels are multi-line, +and need more height. + +2012-02-11 14:10:21 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix popdown seekgraph on forward-event XB + +Only the grid was drawn when the > or >> button were operated, because +a full redraw was not forced by ForwardInner. The recent patch to take +the seek graph down on such events did not account for that. (BackwardInner +always seems to do full redraw, however?) + +2012-02-11 12:59:04 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Put front-end support for -recentEngines in XBoard + +The engines are added to the menu. Problem is still that in XBoard +startup engines are given by command, rather than selected by combobox, +so the command rather than the nickname ends up in the menu. If this is +then selected, it cannot be found in the list. To limit the damage, +Fairy-Max is now pre-installed without nickname. -recentEngines is now +configured to 4. + +2012-02-11 11:53:39 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Better solution to button-height problem + +In stead of adapting the height of text widgets to that of buttons, +(as represented by the message widget), we now do the opposite, and +adapt the button & label heights. This is made safe by obtaining textHeight +from the fontSet's max_logical_extent, though an XExtendsFontSet() call. +Turns out the default height of text widgets is not exactly that, but +4 pixels larger for borders and margin. + The parameter XtNvertDistance is now used to align the checkboxes with +the following text widget, and their size is derived from textHeight as +well. + The XtNvertDistance is set to -1 for the lower spin button, so that it +its border coincides with that of the upper spin button. Their height is +set to textHeight/2. This makes their combined height just 1 pixel more +than that of the preceeding text widget. (Uh? 2 x tw/2 -1 > tw?), so for +other buttons we use that too (i.e. textHeight = font_extent + 5). + +2012-02-10 22:39:08 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix warning + +Deleting debug printing had made a variable unused. + +2012-02-10 22:26:39 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix sleeping bug + +The text-edit-height patch introduced a bug that did not have any consquences +(yet), as the extra arg erroneously included leftover from a previous +SetValues call happened to be the same as one of the intended args. + +2012-02-10 20:51:41 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix unloading of first engine on tourney start + +Because NextTourneyGame was loading a new engine before ReserveGame was +called to unload it with dummy game nr = -1), the first engine proc kept +hanging. + +2012-02-10 18:39:09 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Remove some of the most verbose debug output + + +2012-02-10 17:46:35 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Cosmetic: change 4.5 to 4.6 in xboard.conf comment + + +2012-02-10 17:35:22 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix crash on empty combobox menu XB + +XBoard crashed when a combobox without items was opened, as could easily +happen in the Load Engine dialogs when -firstChessProgramNames contained +no items, as it would without configuring. Now the creation of the popup +menu is suppressed in that case. + +2012-02-10 17:13:36 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix position of checkbox XB + +With the large height the widget get in internationalization, the +checkboxes are position way too high above the text. To shift them down +a dummy borderless label widget is drawn above them (when needed). + +2012-02-10 15:07:35 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix heights in Engine Output window XB + +The icons did not fit in the space above the memos anymore, so the height +of this area is now left free. + +2012-02-10 14:55:48 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Derive height of text-edits in dialogs from message widget + +With internationalization the default height of buttons has inexpliquably +inreased compared to that of text-edits, messing up the layout of the +GenericPopUp. The message widget is now used as a emasure of how high +the widgets should be. + +2012-02-10 14:21:37 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Configure XBoard engines and textures + +The new -useBoardTexture option is needed in xboard.conf, as we want to +distribute with the texture on, while the compiled-in default is off. +A list of 4 engines has been configured (fairymax, fruit, crafty, gnuchess), +as the Load Engine and Match Options checkboxes crash XBoard when the list +is empty. The -recentEngines option is set to 0 to make sure the code +associated with it is never executed: the code is still experimental, +and the required front-end support is only present in WinBoard anyway. + +2012-02-10 13:30:58 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Update Dutch WinBoard translation + + +2012-02-10 13:18:48 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Create room in some WB dialogs for translations + + +2012-02-10 13:17:30 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Fix non-bug in WinBoard + +The IDM_RecentEngines was not used in symbolic form everywhere. + +2012-02-09 18:46:08 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix MAXENGINES in WinBoard + +The front-end arrays for expanding the engine list measured 1000 entries, +in stead of MAXENGINES, leading them to overflow. + +2012-02-09 13:05:42 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Implement kludge to set options through Move Type-in + +A leading "!!! " will cause the rest of the line to be parsed as +command line. Very dangerous, as an unknown option (e.g. because of a typo) +will cause a fatal error, which makes XBoard exit. + +2012-02-09 13:04:44 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Put move number in Eval Graph title + + +2012-02-09 13:00:09 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Implement -pgnNumberTag option + +A new (persistent) boolean option controls if the sequence number is to +be written in saved tourney games as a Number tag, to make it easier +to correlate games with debug files. + +2012-02-09 12:55:52 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Create separate debug fil for each tourney game + +Users can now apecify a -debugfile with %d in its name, and this will +be replaced by the sequence number of the game. TwoMachinesEvent then +starts by opening a new file when the name has changed, so that each +game will go to a different file, with recognizable name. + +2012-02-09 12:51:25 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix bug in WB combobox readout + +The previous patch exposed a latent bug in the readout of the generic popup. + +2012-02-08 23:25:31 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Allow grouping of engines in engine list + +Lines "# GROUPNAME" and "# end" enclose a group in -firstChessProgramNames. + +2012-02-08 17:47:46 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix TidyProgramName + +A trailing .exe was not removed if the engine name was quoted. + +2012-02-08 17:45:42 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Put recently used engines in WB menu + +A new option -recentEngines specifies how many engines should be listed. +The list of nicknames is stored in the ettings file as -recentEngineList. +The engines are appended to the Engine menu. + +2012-02-04 19:37:51 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix registering of EditTagsProg + +This was registered with X as EditCommentProc! + +2012-02-07 23:04:49 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Increase max nr of engines to 2000 + +Move the #define for MAXENGINES also to common.h, so that both the +Load and Tourney dialog use the same maximum. + +2012-01-19 23:01:20 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix fix of switch to mono-mode + +The previous fix had == in stead of != for testing if mono-mode had changed. + +2012-01-19 22:21:38 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Make New Variant dialog visible in mono-mode + +All colored buttons did get a black background, and also black text... +Use timer background color in stead, which is white. + +2012-01-19 20:48:37 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Incease size of WB array of translated items + +For the BoardOptions dialog 42 items are now needed + +2012-01-19 17:18:25 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Implement Clone Tourney button XBoard + +This makes use of the new GenericUpdate(). + +2012-01-19 16:34:13 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Implement GenericUpdate function + +This does the opposite from GenericReadout: it copies the current +parameter values into the dialog. + +2012-01-19 12:19:27 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix arrow damage with highlightDragging XB + +With highlight dragging the highlights of the previous moves are cleared +when lifting the piece. Logically, this should also clear the arrow, but +to do that requires a board redraw, which is not done at this stage. (And +even then this would only be effective after marking the arrow damage, +which is not done yet either). As a temporary fix, we repair the arrow +by redrawing it. + This patch has moved marking of the arrow damage from DrawArrowHighlight +to a separate routine, so a future better fix can also call that when the +arrow should be erased. + +2012-01-18 16:01:50 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Prevent unnecessary loading of engines + +For engines that can be reused, the unloading at the end of a pairing +is in some cases wasteful, as the same engine will be used in the next +pairing as well. In simple gauntlets the gauntlet engine will always +stay first engine, while in multi-gauntlets the oppent engine will stay +the same for an entire round. In these cases unloading is now suppressed. + +2012-01-17 22:22:32 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Reset protocol version before loading new engine + +The protocol version was not reset, so if the previous engine was v1, +the newly loaded engine would not be sent a protover command, so +that its features would remain unknown! + +2012-01-17 19:33:32 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Give focus to board window after ICS login + +toprevent that the focus remains on any popped up chat boxes, it is +explicitlly set otherwise. The board window is preferred over the +ICS interaction window, because you can type from there to the ICS anyway, +and it makes all accelerator keys available. + +2012-01-16 14:37:05 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix seek-graph popup and popdown + +Clicking outside the board area in WB (e.g.on the clocks) would also +trigger seek-graph 'popup'. This is now suppressed by testing for +y-coord > 0. In addition, the seek graph is automaticaly taken down +when we step to another position in the current game (using buttons, +arrow keys or whatever). + +2012-01-15 21:29:11 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Suppress empty lines when observing on VICS + +Capture of the engine kibitzes when observing an engine game with +-autoKibitz on was still leaking a linefeed on the Variant ICS +(but not FICS or ICC!?). + +2012-01-15 21:24:12 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix printing non-numeric kibitz with -autoKibitz + +Messages that were not considered kibitzed engine PV info for lack of +numeric content, were kibitzed as coming from "your opponent", which +is nonsense if you were iobserving, and masked the source. Fortunately +star_match[0] is still holding the original name, at that point. + +2012-01-11 17:33:29 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix 4 warnings + + +2012-01-11 17:00:38 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Use same translation of "vs." everywhere + + +2012-01-11 17:08:18 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Add new translations to WB language file + + +2012-01-11 16:20:17 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix re-allocation of PGN-cache memory + +It allocated 8 times too much! + +2012-01-11 12:47:38 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix height board dialog + + +2012-01-11 12:34:39 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Enable WB time-control dialog even when no clock mode + +The dialog could be called from the tournament dialog to set a TCfor +the tourney even when currently in game-viewer mode, so it'd better work. + +2012-01-11 12:28:43 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Exempt variant seirawan from -disguisePromoted inheritance + +This is not a variant where promoted Pawns have to be distingushed +from primordial pieces, as captured pieces do not go into the holdings. + +2012-01-09 21:23:52 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Add control for overrideLineGap in WB Board dialog + +Make it a checkbox to choose between 0 and -1. + +2012-01-09 20:56:40 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Add Ctrl-D as alternative to Ctrl+Alt+F12 in WinBoard + +The acellerator key Ctrl+Alt+F12 seems reserved on Windows 7. + +2012-01-09 20:52:05 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix seek graph for VICS + +The sought command on the open-source ICS code is ICC-like (no terminating +line), although the server is FICS like. So also accept prompt as seek-graph +trigger on FICS. + +2012-01-09 20:27:01 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Open WB startup chat boxes only after logged on + +The init code for opening the chat boxes ismoved to DisplayIcsTitle(). + +2012-01-07 20:31:34 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Install mime types directly + + +2012-01-07 20:29:10 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Install desktop files directly + + +2012-01-07 20:19:09 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Install icons directly + +Rather than letting make-install copy the pixmaps to the XBoard data +directory they are installed directly from the source files. The name +of the TRN icon was also corrected and changed. + +2012-01-05 18:41:13 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Update texi file and remove duplicate control + +Some missing option descriptions were added. The highlight-dragging +control was removed from the General Options dialog, as it did the same +as Show Target Squares. -highlightDragging wa changed to a volatile option +with default value true, making it effectively disappear as an XBoard +option.

Muller : +Implement -viewerOptions + +A mechanism is added to allow the user to configure persistently if the +game viewer that starts on clicking PGN files will use -ncp mode, or +load an egine for analysis (or, in fact, do anything). This by introducing +a persistent string option -viewerOptions, which will be parsed as a +command line after the real command line when the option -viewer was present. + +2012-01-03 11:29:00 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix crash in auto-comment + +Trailing linefeeds in AppendComment were not properly stripped off, +leading to a mismatch between the allocted and used memory, and thus +possible buffer overruns. + +2012-01-02 23:46:18 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Fix crash at match end + +The -afterTourney option had broken old-style matches, because the ranking +string that was tested for "busy" is not set there at all, and remains a +NULL pointer, which strcmp doesn't like. + +2012-01-01 19:56:58 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Add desktop files for PGN viewer and tournament player + +The desktop files define startup commands for handling PGN, FEN and +tourney files, calling xboard with the proper command-line options. + +2012-01-01 19:53:02 +0100 H.G. Muller : +Add xml file for defining mime types + +The file xboard.xml defines application/x-chess-pgn, aplication/x-chess-fen +and application/x-xboard-trn as mime types for *.pgn, *.fen and *.trn files, +so these files can be associated with XBoard in various modes. + +2012-01-01 19:41:39 +0100 H.G.

Muller : +Fix WinBoard clock-click bug + +Clicking on the clock in WinBoard also called the LeftClick routine +for handling clicks on the board.

Muller : +Add feature-override options + +A few (dangerous) options are added to allow a user to override +engine features, or change their defaults, by supplying a string +with feature commands (e.g. "sigint=0") which tricks XBoard into +thinking the engine sent that.
