That was not fun. There were a variety of issues. It's needs
testing.
We use the new GENCPP for preprocessing the various scripts and config
files in config/
This adds a basic library and support to dtsession and dtlogin to
support Xinerama/Twinview, where multimple monitors are used to make
up an X11 screen.
The main goal here is to draw dialogs and such centered on a monitor,
rather than spread out over multiple monitors.
Might need to add sorting - as on my test system, what I would
consider monitor 0, appears to actually be monitor 1. So a sort might
need to be added to sort the screens according to increasing x and y
offsets so it make sense to a user.
Also, this library is built statically and not documented. Maybe it
could be 'filled' out and refactored/redesigned in the futre if need
be and suppoerted.
It is enabled via a define, CDE_USEXINERAMA in site.def. It's a very
simple lib, so I do not expect any issues with the BSD's - it should
build and work fine, assuming your X server has the XINERAMA
extension, which I think pretty much all of them do at this point.

This patch removes instances of hardcoded
invocation of /bin/ksh and allows to
replace it with, for, example,
/usr/local/bin/ksh93
Also "ksh93" is accepted whenever "ksh" is.
Tested using the following /bin/ksh:
----8<----
WHAT=`ps -o command= -p $PPID`
msg="Something tried to call /bin/ksh: $PPID: $WHAT"
print -u2 "$msg"
logger user.warn "$msg"
exit 99
----8<----
(Warning: first two lines are FreeBSD specific)
Scripts from Makefiles should now be executed either
with
$(KORNSHELL) korn-shell-script
or
$(SHELL) bourne-shell-script
therefore #!/bin/ksh has not been changed everywhere.
/usr/dt/bin/ scripts have been converted (e.g. Xsession)
Whenever possible Imake and CPP facilities have been used.
For C and C++ programs KORNSHELL needs to be defined to
"/path/to/your/ksh" (with quotes) so that it can make
a valid C constant.
Therefore, when adding KORNSHELL to Imakefile for C files,
you have to add
CXXEXTRA_DEFINES = -DKORNSHELL=\"$(KORNSHELL)\"
or similar (for example, see programs/dtprintinfo)
But for simple shell script substitution we usually change
LOCAL_CPP_DEFINES = -DCDE_CONFIGURATION_TOP=$(CDE_CONFIGURATION_TOP) \
-DCDE_INSTALLATION_TOP=$(CDE_INSTALLATION_TOP) \
-DCDE_LOGFILES_TOP=$(CDE_LOGFILES_TOP)
to:
LOCAL_CPP_DEFINES = -DCDE_CONFIGURATION_TOP=$(CDE_CONFIGURATION_TOP) \
-DCDE_INSTALLATION_TOP=$(CDE_INSTALLATION_TOP) \
-DCDE_LOGFILES_TOP=$(CDE_LOGFILES_TOP) \
-DKORNSHELL=$(KORNSHELL) \
-DXPROJECTROOT=X11ProjectRoot
since we don't want quotes for shell scripts.
What we really need are more fonts installed, like all of the xf 75dpi
and 100dpi fonts. 100dpi looks much better than 75/72 dpi, especially
on any display larger than 1024x768. Of course, in the far future, we
should use the anti-aliased TT fonts everyone else uses these days
anyway.
