Internationalized Terminal Emulator Framework
Jiro SEKIBA <jir at yamato dot ibm dot com>
* PREFACE
This is the public release of Internationalized Terminal Emulator
Framework(iterm) version 0.5. You can download tar.gz package from
the URL below
http://www-124.ibm.com/linux/projects/iterm/
or obtain latest codes from CVS Repository as below..
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs dot li18nux dot org:/cvsroot login
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous at cvs dot li18nux dot org:/cvsroot co iterm
The distribution consist of 4 parts, such are
- lib
libiterm, the terminal emulator library.
- unix/fbiterm
terminal emulator for framebuffer, which uses libiterm.
- unix/Xaw/lib
libXiterm, the terminal emulator widget library.
- unix/Xaw/src
terminal emulator for X, which uses above widget and libiterm.
Please check documents in each directory for further information.
* NEW FEATURES
This time, we included very early version of 'gtkiterm': gtk implementation
of iterm. Because of the first early release of the implementation,
you can easily understand how libiterm works and how to use libiterm to
create own terminal emulators. It is a limited implementation, so the
feature of gtkiterm is not fully available not like xiterm. However, it
works complete 80x24 terminal emulator even it is only 650 lines of codes.
Now you can use libutempter for secure utmp access. We implemented
libutempter driver. By libutempter, you can access utmp database without
any privilege.
