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.

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.
SIGIOT is not defined in any standard i can find and it seems to be
useless (alias for SIGABRT) on linux. i put it in #ifdef but it's
probably best just to remove it and cut down the size a bit.
0000474: vi crashes often
problem was that the buffer used for "." command ("last_modifying_cmd")
wasn't being maintined correctly -- the recording code was walking back
over the front of that buffer when a repeatable insert command
included backspacing (e.g. "i\b\b\bfoo"). the fix is to simply
record the backspaces along with the rest of the command.
also, cleaned up start_new_cmd_q() slightly.
correct screen, and bug 215 reports trouble with the status line
on small screens.
with this change a) the status line should always be refreshed
properly, b) the status line is a little shorter than it used to
be ("I" instead of "--INSERT--"), c) the status line will be
truncated if it doesn't fit on the screen, and d) if the screen
is too narrow for an error or transient status message (from
psb() or psbs()), then that message will be followed by a "Hit
Return" prompt. (it wasn't until i did this last bit that the
size grew. with this, these changes add about 150 bytes.)

This is a bulk spelling fix patch against busybox-1.00-pre10.
If anyone gets a corrupted copy (and cares), let me know and
I will make alternate arrangements.
Erik - please apply.
Authors - please check that I didn't corrupt any meaning.
Package importers - see if any of these changes should be
passed to the upstream authors.
I glossed over lots of sloppy capitalizations, missing apostrophes,
mixed American/British spellings, and German-style compound words.
What is "pretect redefined for test" in cmdedit.c?
Good luck on the 1.00 release!

Hi All,
I aplogoize for the mistake, but i have just recognized that somehow the
last patch I sent in was wrong, and a '0' was instead of a '-1'. Because
of this, vi does behave the wrong way. So again, it should be the last
patch for vi. This is for pre7.
Hi,
I've noticed the bug also, and here is another patch for it. I hope it'll
not introduce more bugs. Not too nice, but works for me.
Here it is for busybox-1.00-pre6
make busybox be more uClinux friendly. I also adjusted Config.h for
uClinux so it will automagically disable apps the arn't going to
work without fork() and such.

1) ping cleanup (compile fix from this patch already applied).
2) traceroute call not spare ntohl() now (and reduce size);
3) Fix for functions not declared static in insmod, ash, vi and mount.
4) a more simple API cmdedit :))
5) adds "stopped jobs" warning to ash on Ctrl-D and fixes "ignoreeof" option
6) reduce exporting library function index->strchr (traceroute), bzero->memset (syslogd)
- All of the ESC sequences are now in variables. This should make
re-targeting for other terminals easier.
- The initial screen draw does not force out every single column.
Should be faster.
- The place_cursor() routine trys to be smarter about moving the
cursor. This is optional based on BB_FEATURE_VI_OPTIMIZE_CURSOR.
- The 't' and 'f' intra-line positioning commands were added.
They can now be used as targets in 'c' and 'd' commands, i.e.,
dfx - delete from dot to next 'x'
dtx - delete from dot to the char before next 'x'
- show_status_line() uses a static int checksum to remember what
is currently displayed on the screen and not re-draw the status
line unless it has changed.
- Some of the code in refresh() was moved out to format_line().
refresh() trys to send out the smallest segment containing
the changed chars rather than the whole line.
- Added "flash" to the :set command to specify if error indication
should be by flashing the screen or ringing the bell.
- Changed the rawmode() routine so that it turns off the
NL -> CR NL translation. On output of a NL, the OS will not add
a CR.
- If vi was started as "view", with global read-only mode,
and another file is opened, the file is opened read-only
rather than read+write.
