TODO for PuTTY GTK2 port before merging back into main trunk code
|
||||
-----------------------------------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Items from Colin's original mail:
|
||||
|
||||
- Font handling is the biggie. Current problems with it:
|
||||
* The GTK2 font selection dialog only mentions client-side
|
||||
fonts, but the actual text display code can't cope with them.
|
||||
+ Clearly one or the other needs to be fixed: the font
|
||||
selection dialog certainly needs to agree with the fonts
|
||||
actually available in the program.
|
||||
+ I want to keep being able to use my server-side fonts.
|
||||
+ People used to GTK2 applications will probably want to use
|
||||
their client-side fonts.
|
||||
* Also, the GTK2 font selection dialog doesn't allow filtering
|
||||
to monospaced fonts only (and gnome-terminal, for example,
|
||||
just has to cope if the user selects a proportional font).
|
||||
+ We can live with this problem if we really have to, but
|
||||
it'd be nice not to have to.
|
||||
* Colin's idea is that we should simply cook up a font selection
|
||||
dialog entirely of our own, which handles both client- _and_
|
||||
server-side fonts, and correspondingly soup up the text
|
||||
display code to deal with whichever it's given (if necessary
|
||||
by switching between two totally separate pieces of code).
|
||||
This sounds like a sensible plan to me, or at least the most
|
||||
sensible response to a generally insane situation.
|
||||
|
||||
- The call to _gtk_container_dequeue_resize_handler wants
|
||||
revisiting, and preferably removing in favour of a cleaner way to
|
||||
do the job.
|
||||
|
||||
- gtkcols.c is currently a minimal-work GTK2 port of my original
|
||||
GTK1 implementation. Someone should go through it and compare it
|
||||
to a real GTK2 container class, to make sure there aren't any
|
||||
large chunks we should have reimplemented and haven't, or indeed
|
||||
that we shouldn't have reimplemented and have.
|
||||
|
||||
- Uses of GtkList should be replaced with the non-deprecated
|
||||
GtkTreeView.
|
||||
|
||||
Other items:
|
||||
|
||||
- The host key security alert dialog box is coming up the right
|
||||
size but totally blank! Find out why and fix it.
|
||||
|
||||
At point of merge:
|
||||
|
||||
- Mention Colin in the website's licence page.
