In previous versions of CDE (<2.5.0), these were directories with
en_US symlinked to them. Attempting to do a 'make install' with 2.5.0
would yield errors since only a non-recursive 'rm' was being done.
On 2.5.0+, these are symlinks to the en_US versions now.
programs/dtwm/Dtwm.defs.src: Update default Dtwm backdrop
localized/*/app-defaults/Dtwm.tmsg: Update translations to reflect change
For CDE users with sufficiently high resolution screens, the abrupt
transition towards the end of the default SkyLight backdrop image bore
a close enough resemblance to graphical corruption to spur bug
reports. This problem likely did not manifest to the original CDE
developers using the typical monitors of the 1990s.
This patch changes the default backdrop to KnitLight, which comports
well with CDE's low distraction UI while still offering something
visually interesting enough to showcase CDE's support for bitmap
backdrops. Because of the repeating pattern within KnitLight, this
problem will not occur in the future. Additionally, SkyLight will be
retained as a CDE backdrop.
The appmanager action files (/usr/dt/appconfig/appmanager/*) are now
created properly for the main 4 languages supported. As usual, the
en_US.UTF-8 locale is a symlink to C.
These files were previously created via the UDB database files via
imake. Obviously we aren't going to be using those in autotools.
So, each language now has an appmanager/ dir in
programs/localized/$LANG/ that will create them properly on a make and
make install. It uses a new appmgr.am template in localized/templates
to do this.
This also means all of these languages now can use the new actions
added by Antonis, even though they are not translated, they are at
least usable in those languages now.
There are still some issues here - specifically with the C
dtbuilder/dtcodegen catalogs. They may be broken due to dtbuilder not
being built yet.
Also, once dtinfo can be built, the msgs and app-defaults for it
should be re-enabled.
I also see gencat coredumping in localization/ while doing a multicore
(-jX) make. Regular single core builds seem to work fine.
According to the spec, blank lines in message catalogs or lines
beginning with '$ ' are valid comments.
However, there were many cases where lines in the message catalogs
contained just a single '$', without the required space after it.
Under linux, this caused 126766 error lines (in my builds) of the
form:
... unknown directive `': line ignored
This also causes gencat to exit with a non-0 exit code. Even though
gencat says it ignores the line, it really doesn't.
An early porting change to programs/localized/util/merge.c was made to
ignore this return value on linux. This hack has now been removed.
Build logs are a lot smaller and cleaner now.
The dtwm DefaultWindowMenu did not list any of the workspace enabled
Occupy commands, which makes it a bit difficult to move windows into a
workspace, or to occupy multiple workspaces.
This was rectified by copying the relevant lines from the
SampleWindowMenu sections containing them that already existed in the
localized files. Tested on C and DE (German).
