character set configuration to UTF-8, on both Windows and Unix, and
reorganise the dropdown lists in the Translation menu so that UTF-8
appears at the top (and Unix's odd "use font encoding" is relegated to
the bottom of the list like the special-purpose oddity it is).

a GtkIMMulticontext and having that filter most keypresses. I think
I've got this right so that it doesn't break any previous deliberate
keyboard-handling behaviour that's now _after_ the 'if (filter
keypress) return' statement.

'Config' in putty.h, which stores all PuTTY's settings and includes an
arbitrary length limit on every single one of those settings which is
stored in string form. In place of it is 'Conf', an opaque data type
everywhere outside the new file conf.c, which stores a list of (key,
value) pairs in which every key contains an integer identifying a
configuration setting, and for some of those integers the key also
contains extra parts (so that, for instance, CONF_environmt is a
string-to-string mapping). Everywhere that a Config was previously
used, a Conf is now; everywhere there was a Config structure copy,
conf_copy() is called; every lookup, adjustment, load and save
operation on a Config has been rewritten; and there's a mechanism for
serialising a Conf into a binary blob and back for use with Duplicate
Session.
User-visible effects of this change _should_ be minimal, though I
don't doubt I've introduced one or two bugs here and there which will
eventually be found. The _intended_ visible effects of this change are
that all arbitrary limits on configuration strings and lists (e.g.
limit on number of port forwardings) should now disappear; that list
boxes in the configuration will now be displayed in a sorted order
rather than the arbitrary order in which they were added to the list
(since the underlying data structure is now a sorted tree234 rather
than an ad-hoc comma-separated string); and one more specific change,
which is that local and dynamic port forwardings on the same port
number are now mutually exclusive in the configuration (putting 'D' in
the key rather than the value was a mistake in the first place).
One other reorganisation as a result of this is that I've moved all
the dialog.c standard handlers (dlg_stdeditbox_handler and friends)
out into config.c, because I can't really justify calling them generic
any more. When they took a pointer to an arbitrary structure type and
the offset of a field within that structure, they were independent of
whether that structure was a Config or something completely different,
but now they really do expect to talk to a Conf, which can _only_ be
used for PuTTY configuration, so I've renamed them all things like
conf_editbox_handler and moved them out of the nominally independent
dialog-box management module into the PuTTY-specific config.c.

- initialise blank mbstate_t using memset rather than an ad-hoc
initialiser.
- expand the OMIT_UTMP ifdefs to enclose a load of entire functions
that would generate `static function never called' warnings if
left as empty shells.
- couple of other fiddly things.

feels strongly that it should be easy to make _all_ your
applications work in UTF-8 mode, without having to remember a switch
for each one. Every application should simply note a UTF-8 locale
setting and switch into UTF-8 mode automatically.
Therefore, for the Unix port only, there's now a checkbox, enabled
by default, which causes the drop-down Translation box to be
overridden if the locale indicates UTF-8. Anyone who doesn't like
this, or doesn't like MGK, is welcome to turn it straight back off.
I'm not _completely_ convinced by MGK's argument myself; for
xterm/pterm to do _useful_ UTF-8 you also need to specify a decently
Unicode-capable font, and there's no way _that_ can be automagically
done on noticing a locale setting. But it's a de facto standard
(i.e. xterm does it :-) so I might as well at least be _able_ to
support it.

had to move another of its values out into wincfg.c - paradoxically,
this was the `font has X encoding' option! (Because the Unix font
handling code expects to be able to tell for _itself_ whether it has
a font with X-encoded line drawing glyphs.)

former by simply removing it; the latter by adding an enumeration
function to libcharset.) This has had slight `const' repercussions
on cp_name() and cp_enumerate() which might break the Mac build.
[originally from svn r3064]
just done this the very simple way - bundle all the globals into a
data structure and pass pointers around. One particularly ugly wart
is that wc_to_mb now takes a pointer to this structure as an
argument (optional, may be NULL, and unused in any Unicode layer
that's even marginally less of a mess than the Windows one). I do
need to do this properly at some point, but for now this should just
about be adequate. As usual, the Mac port has not been updated.

relevant bits of it passed in to init_ucs(). (Actually I pass in all
of it in the Windows version, since it's a bit hairy in there.)

font whose encoding comes up as CS_NONE - but this is also true for
iso10646-1 fonts, since libcharset doesn't support wide-character
encodings! Hence UTF-8 cut and paste was enabled in ordinary modes,
but disabled in UTF-8 mode, which was a bit embarrassing. Now we
have a dedicated flag variable indicating direct-to-font mode.
[originally from svn r2425]
know what that encoding actually is, we can do our best to support
additional charsets (VT100 linedrawing, SCO ACS, UTF-8 mode) using
the available characters; if we don't, we fall back to a mode where
we disable all Unicode cut-and-paste and assume any Unicode
character is undisplayable.

does UTF-8 copy and paste (falling back to normal strings if
necessary), it understands X font encodings and translates things
accordingly so that if you have a Unicode font you can ask for
virtually any single-byte encoding and get it (Mac-Roman pterm,
anyone?), and so on. There's work left to be done (wide fonts for
CJK spring to mind), but I reckon this is a pretty good start.

lpage_send out into the line discipline, making them _clients_ of
the Unicode layer rather than part of it. This means they can access
ldisc->term, which in turn means I've been able to remove the
temporary global variable `term'. We're slowly getting there.

all the global and function-static variables out of terminal.c into
a dynamically allocated data structure. Note that this does not yet
confer the ability to run more than one of them in the same process,
because other things (the line discipline, the back end) are still
global, and also in particular the address of the dynamically
allocated terminal-data structure is held in a global variable
`term'. But what I've got here represents a reasonable stopping
point at which to check things in. In _theory_ this should all still
work happily, on both Unix and Windows. In practice, who knows?
[originally from svn r2115]
The current pty.c backend is temporarily a loopback device for
terminal emulator testing, the display handling is only just enough
to show that terminal.c is functioning, the keyboard handling is
laughable, and most features are absent. Next step: bring output and
input up to a plausibly working state, and put a real pty on the
back to create a vaguely usable prototype. Oh, and a scrollbar would
be nice too.
In _theory_ the Windows builds should still work fine after this...
