15 years agoAdded internal wrapping ability.
Eric Mullins [Sat, 17 Oct 2009 04:54:12 +0000]
Added internal wrapping ability.

New options:
  -wrapContinuationSequence "foo"  (default: "\\   "
  -useInternalWrap (Winboard default: false, XBoard default: true)

Note: -keepLineBreaksICS if set, prevents wrapping, usurping the
   useInternalWrap setting.  The idea is if you want to keep ICS line
   breaks, then you don't want internal wrapping.  Because of this,
   the new default for keepLineBreaksICS is now false for XBoard.

15 years agonew mousehandler to correct for premove and promotion popup
H.G. Muller [Fri, 16 Oct 2009 02:46:07 +0000]
new mousehandler to correct for premove and promotion popup

this is the new mouse handler for XBoard, which should fully implement
premove, including promotion popup, and yet suppress the promotion popup
on illegal moves that are not premoves. It is almost completely moved to
the back-end now, so that WinBoard will be able to use it as well. I just
must hook it up to winboard.c, in particular harmonize the call-backs of
the mouse driver into the front-end for grabbing and releasing pieces for
dragging, to make sure they have the same names and arguments.

15 years agoAdjustment to joining to work around server not always including space.
Eric Mullins [Thu, 15 Oct 2009 22:54:51 +0000]
Adjustment to joining to work around server not always including space.

This patch implements commit 98aa02bda540f17f1f50be00e494efafe439b004
into the updated joining routine.  This issue seems not to be server
variance, but instead the server electing to omit the space between
words when it occurs at exactly your width setting (-1 actually).

This patch makes the joiner add back the space just like the referenced
commit.  Note: this is just a workaround to a server issue-- the joiner
actually joins correctly before this patch.

15 years agoFixed joiner detection, allowing it to work with timeseal
Eric Mullins [Thu, 15 Oct 2009 13:18:42 +0000]
Fixed joiner detection, allowing it to work with timeseal

When timeseal's buffer fills in the middle of the continuation
sequence, detection fails, and the lines aren't joined.

As a result of this fix, measures intended to bypass joining are
no longer needed, so I removed them.  These utilize server vars
when available to prevent splitting.

Turning off line wrap prevents splitting lines up using the
continuation sequence "\\   ".  This is desirable when using
timeseal because timeseal's buffer is sometimes too small,
causing it to break lines itself.  These lines can't be joined.

15 years agofix joining of lines split by ICS
H.G. Muller [Sat, 10 Oct 2009 15:34:10 +0000]
fix joining of lines split by ICS

This patch fixes the joining of lines that were split by an ICS, so that adding
a space at the break point is done only when there was not a space already.
(Some ICS leave a space at the end of the broken line, others do not.)
An extra space would interefere with board12 in Gothic Chess, which is so
long that the ICS breaks it, and the WB parser could not handle a double
space within the board.

Eric Mullins [Fri, 9 Oct 2009 06:04:51 +0000]
Updated navigation accelerators, fixing ICS problems.

Recent changes to the navigation accelerators were in the wrong
accelerator table.  Since the goal was to correct non-JAWS versions
back to 4.2.7 behavior, I updated it to how 4.2.7 did it, but still
retained the #ifdef JAWS conditional compilation.

On an ICS, the navigation keys took control away from the ics
client to navigate the game.  The update requires the ALT key to
be pressed, but it works identical to 4.2.7, not causing an
unexpected focus back to the board window when you're just editing
text.

A new and very bad bug was discovered in the implementation of the protocol extensions:
XBoard sends a command "egtbpath" to the engine in stead of "egtpath" from the protocol specs.
After discussion on WB forum it was decided that egtpath was better than the egtbpath I originally
had proposed, and I changed it accordingly, but I had not realized that this string occurred TWICE
in backend.c, depending on if matched the -defaultPathEGTB of -egtFormats option.

H.G. Muller [Sun, 27 Sep 2009 19:05:32 +0000]
rewrote wevalgraph for better frontend/backend separation

I hve finished re-writing the eval-graph code to have some front-end / backe-end separation,
something I had already started on my holiday in Norway (when I had no internet :-)  ).

The new code now appears to work exactly like the old code, and I guess it could be ported
to gtk comparatively easily.

15 years agofix for keepalive and chat window
H.G. Muller [Sun, 27 Sep 2009 19:00:51 +0000]
fix for keepalive and chat window

I made a fix to the keepAlive option so it does not send the date command
to the ICS after every move. This required changing ScheduleDelayedEvent()
so that it does not execute the event if a new identical one gets scheduled.
I also added the option to XBoard. Affects
xboard.c (DOS!) and winboard.c

(This also cures the regression of the winboard.c copyright patch)

I extended the chatbox patch to also listen to channel tells, and divert
them to a chatbox for that channel number. Affects
backend.c and wchat.c

That should make those patches fully operational. No docs for either of them
yet, though.

15 years agoadded a chat window to keep track of multiple conversations
H.G. Muller [Sun, 27 Sep 2009 17:24:47 +0000]
added a chat window to keep track of multiple conversations

The chat-window patch affects:
winboard.c, backend.c, winboard.rc, resource.h, backend.h, and adds
the file winboard/wchat.c, which also affects makefile.gcc and makefile.ms.

In addition I added a new option -keepAlive, which affects
common.h (in addition to winboard.c and backend.c).

As I had to modify backend.h, I also defined the -reset option type there,
which we are going to add later. This required some changes
to suppress warnings in wsettings.c.

Arun Persaud [Tue, 8 Sep 2009 05:04:39 +0000]
fixed a few more small bugs reported by Stanislav Brabec

- A function uses a 'return;' statement, but has actually a value to
return, like an integer ('return 42;') or similar: xboard voidreturn
xengineoutput.c:766, 782

- Program returns random data in a function at xengineoutput.c:602

- With a new toolchain, AM_LDFLAGS cannot contain libraries. Linker
ignores them. Fix is attached.

- ToDo: Convenient name in most projects is TODO (autotools package it
automatically).

be properly set (actually: cleared) after setting up a position
in Edit Position mode (as opposed to pasting a FEN).

15 years agoupdated polyglot protocol
H.G. Muller [Fri, 4 Sep 2009 05:30:18 +0000]
updated polyglot protocol

I added a new option type "-reset" to the protocol for the new option feature.
4.4.0 does not implement it yet, but Michel wants it for future Polyglots,
and I think it is best to update the protocol in one big swoop. So I want to already
include it in the specs now. (engine-intf.html)

I made xboard's response to an unknown option type compliant with the new protocol specs.

15 years agoworkaround for error message for missing pieces used in variants and initstring bugfix v4.4.0.beta2
H.G. Muller [Tue, 1 Sep 2009 03:29:49 +0000]
workaround for error message for missing pieces used in variants and initstring bugfix

error messages showed for non-existing pieces showed up for old user supplied pixmaps. Loading a pixmap of the king for the missing pieces now.

Another bad bug surfaced: the -initString argument does not work in any
XBoard version! (Including 4.2.7b) The escape sequences for linefeed in
the string are not understood: -initString "new\nrandom\n" actually sends
the \ and n to the engine (which then does not recognize the line as a
valid command)!

So I also added a patch to expand escape sequences in the InitString and
ComputerString command-line options.
