On a system with 2 or more displays with different DPI settings,
moving the PuTTY window from one display to another will make Windows
resize the window using its "bitmap" strategy, stretching/compressing
the text, making it fuzzy and harder to read. This change makes PuTTY
resize its window and font size to accurately fit the DPI of the
display it is on.
We process the WM_DPICHANGED message, saving the new DPI, window size
and position. We proceed to then reset the window, recreating the
fonts using the new DPI and calculate the new window size and position
based on the new font size, user display options (ie. with/without
scrollbar) and the suggested window position provided by Windows. The
suggested window size is usually not a perfect fit, therefore we must
add a small offset to the new window position in order to avoid issues
with repeated DPI changes while dragging the window from one display
to another.
The number of people has been steadily increasing who read our source
code with an editor that thinks tab stops are 4 spaces apart, as
opposed to the traditional tty-derived 8 that the PuTTY code expects.
So I've been wondering for ages about just fixing it, and switching to
a spaces-only policy throughout the code. And I recently found out
about 'git blame -w', which should make this change not too disruptive
for the purposes of source-control archaeology; so perhaps now is the
time.
While I'm at it, I've also taken the opportunity to remove all the
trailing spaces from source lines (on the basis that git dislikes
them, and is the only thing that seems to have a strong opinion one
way or the other).
Apologies to anyone downstream of this code who has complicated patch
sets to rebase past this change. I don't intend it to be needed again.
While grepping for FIXME comments I could get rid of easily, I came
across a completely unexplained one in puttytel.rc, and after a moment
of thought, realised that it was there because PuTTYtel sharing
PuTTY's manifest file means the manifest has the wrong application
name.
Of course I could do something a bit more clever involving having one
copy of the manifest file and templating it to multiple applications,
but I think it would be more pain than it's worth given that the
templating system would have to be compatible with all the makefiles
and run on Windows systems where no sensible scripting was available.
So I just do it the trivial way.
