of storing a full grid_cell with UTF-8 data and everything, store a new
type grid_cell_entry. This can either be the cell itself (for ASCII
cells), or an offset into an extended array (per line) for UTF-8
data.
This avoid a large (8 byte) overhead on non-UTF-8 cells (by far the
majority for most users) without the complexity of the shadow array we
had before. Grid memory without any UTF-8 is about half.
The disadvantage that cells can no longer be modified in place and need
to be copied out of the grid and back but it turned out to be lot less
complicated than I expected.
around, we can't use file descriptors for the working directory because
we will be unable to pass it to a privileged process to tell it where to
read or write files or spawn children. So move tmux back to using
strings for the current working directory. We try to check it exists
with access() when it is set but ultimately fall back to ~ if it fails
at time of use (or / if that fails too).
#{=10:...} length limit, add #{t:...} to convert a time_t format to a
string, #{b:...} for basename and #{d:...} for dirname. Remove all the
foo_string time formats as they can now be replaced by "t:", for example
#{window_activity_string} becomes #{t:window_activity}.
multiple times, also remove the default space in window_flags and use a
conditional to add it in window-status-format (this means additional
flags can be added in the option without extra spaces). From Thomas Adam
with tweaks by me.
keys. The default key bindings become the "prefix" table and -n the
"root" table. Keys may be bound in new tables with bind -T and
switch-client -T used to specify the table in which the next key should
be looked up. Based on a diff from Keith Amling.
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)
