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.

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.
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.
dtlogin's genauth routines were trying to open and read /dev/mem on
linux and (presumably) bsd systems in order to obtain random data used
in creating an auth key.
This is bad for a variety of reasons. Newer linux kernels (at least
on 3.2) issue the following warning to the kernel logs:
"Program dtlogin tried to access /dev/mem between 100000->102000."
Now on linux we will use /dev/urandom, and on CSRG_BASED (bsd) systems
we will use /dev/random to obtain some entropy.
In dtlogin, you can select the language to switch to by selecting it
via Options->Language. Unfortunately this was also including '.' and
'..', since this list is built dynamically by scanning a directory.
Now we screen out '.' and '..'.
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.
Added proper SharedDtSvcReqs in lnxLib.tmpl and CplusplusLibC in
linux.cf. This allows the libstdc++ dependancy to be properly
declared for libDtSvc so that it is not neccessary to hardcode 'CCLINK
= g++' in the Imakefiles of programs linking angainst libDtSvc.
