Some notes:
POSIX HOST_NAME_MAX doesn't include the NUL.
POSIX LOGIN_NAME_MAX and TTY_NAME_MAX do include the NUL.
BSD MAXHOSTNAMELEN includes the NUL. Actually, most of the historical
BSD MAX* defines did include the NUL, except for the historical
mistake of utmp fields without NULs in the string, which directly led
to strncpy.. just showing how error prone this kind of accounting is.
CSRG did right. Somehow POSIX missed the memo on the concepts of
carefulness and consistancy, and we are still paying the price when
people trip over this. Of course, glibc is even more amazing (that is
a hint to blackhats)

split-window, respawn-window or respawn-pane, pass them directly to
execvp() to help avoid quoting problems. One argument still goes to "sh
-c" like before. Requested by many over the years. Patch from J Raynor.
much as before - buffers are automatically named "buffer0000",
"buffer0001" and so on and ordered as a stack. Buffers can be named
explicitly when creating ("loadb -b foo" etc) or renamed ("setb -b
buffer0000 -n foo"). If buffers are named explicitly, they are not
deleted when buffer-limit is reached. Diff from J Raynor.
descriptors rather than strings.
- Each session still has a current working directory.
- New sessions still get their working directory from the client that
created them or its attached session if any.
- New windows are created by default in the session working directory.
- The -c flag to new, neww, splitw allows the working directory to be
overridden.
- The -c flag to attach let's the session working directory be changed.
- The default-path option has been removed.
To get the equivalent to default-path '.', do:
bind c neww -c $PWD
To get the equivalent of default-path '~', do:
bind c neww -c ~
This also changes the client identify protocol to be a set of messages rather
than one as well as some other changes that should make it easier to make
backwards-compatible protocol changes in future.
commands and allow a command to block execution of subsequent
commands. This allows run-shell and if-shell to be synchronous which has
been much requested.
Each client has a default command queue and commands are consumed one at
a time from it. A command may suspend execution from the queue by
returning CMD_RETURN_WAIT and then resume it by calling cmd_continue() -
for example run-shell does this from the callback that is fired after
the job is freed.
When the command queue becomes empty, command clients are automatically
exited (unless attaching). A callback is also fired - this is used for
nested commands in, for example, if-shell which can block execution of
the client's cmdq until a new cmdq becomes empty.
Also merge all the old error/info/print functions together and lose the
old curclient/cmdclient distinction - a cmdq is bound to one client (or
none if in the configuration file), this is a command client if
c->session is NULL otherwise an attached client.
