trylink: explain how to modify link and drastically decrease amount
of padding (unfortunately, needs hand editing ATM).
*: add ALIGN1 / ALIGN2 to global strings and arrays of bytes and shorts
size saving: 0.5k
* the puzzling message on error is replaced with strerror(errno)
so it should be even more detailed and smaller at the same time.
* merged code in edit_file() and code for ':edit <file>' in colon() into
new func init_text_buffer(). Was horribly duplicate. Moved most of
error/sanity checking to file_insert(). Result is that you get a proper
validation (prevent reading /dev/*) and error messages for ':r <file>'
* renamed 'cfn' to 'current_filename' for improved readability
* merged smallint vi_readonly and readonly into bitfields into
readonly_mode to save space.
* added text_size variable to keep track how big the text buffer is.
This is used to fix a buffer overflow. To reproduce bug:
./busybox vi TODO
:r Makefile
vi segfaults due to no buffer checking is done at all. som redesign is
needed here but i added a check in text_hole_make() to aviod the
segfault at least.
* removed isblnk() and use isblank(3) instead.
* fixed compiler warning by displaying the return code for :!<command>
This makes things bigger than needed but since the patch reduces the
overall size... (see below)
* new func next_tabstop(int) merges some duplicate code. There are more
cuplicode here but i couldnt find a good way to merge them.
* Fix *ANNOYING* placement of cursor on '\t' characters. To reproduce:
echo -e "\thello" > file1
./busybox vi file1
Try to insert some text at the beginning of line. Text will be inserted
but cursor is blinking somewhere else. The patch should make busybox vi
behave more like original vi(m). Costs a few bytes but its worth it
imho.
* new_text() is moved into init_text_buffer()
* the previously added update_ro_status() was moved info file_insert due
to duplication removal mentioned above.

awk: some 'lineno' vars were shorts, made them ints (code got smaller)
awk: rename global t to global ttt. still an awful name, but at least
you can grep for it now.

things like xasprintf() into xfuncs.c, remove xprint_file_by_name() (it only
had one user), clean up lots of #includes... General cleanup pass. What I've
been doing for the last couple days.
And it conflicts! I've removed httpd.c from this checkin due to somebody else
touching that file. It builds for me. I have to catch a bus. (Now you know
why I'm looking forward to Mercurial.)
an xterm it's running in. The vi signal behavior would catch and restarts lots
of signals, like SIGHUP, that should just kill the thing. (Leftover behavior
from when it would segfault all the time.) Filtered out the more obviously
bad ones. If it segfaults, we should find and fix the problem.
