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.
This commit includes <stdbool.h> from defs.h and deletes my
traditional definitions of TRUE and FALSE, but other than that, it's a
100% mechanical search-and-replace transforming all uses of TRUE and
FALSE into the C99-standardised lowercase spellings.
No actual types are changed in this commit; that will come next. This
is just getting the noise out of the way, so that subsequent commits
can have a higher proportion of signal.
These are things where no fix was actually necessary in the code, but
the FIXME indicated that the comment itself was either in need of a
rewrite or removal.
There was a while when I hadn't decided what the name of the program
was going to be, and apparently once I did I never got round to
substituting it back in everywhere.
All the main backend structures - Ssh, Telnet, Pty, Serial etc - now
describe structure types themselves rather than pointers to them. The
same goes for the codebase-wide trait types Socket and Plug, and the
supporting types SockAddr and Pinger.
All those things that were typedefed as pointers are older types; the
newer ones have the explicit * at the point of use, because that's
what I now seem to be preferring. But whichever one of those is
better, inconsistently using a mixture of the two styles is worse, so
let's make everything consistent.
A few types are still implicitly pointers, such as Bignum and some of
the GSSAPI types; generally this is either because they have to be
void *, or because they're typedefed differently on different
platforms and aren't always pointers at all. Can't be helped. But I've
got rid of the main ones, at least.
This is a cleanup I started to notice a need for during the BinarySink
work. It removes a lot of faffing about casting things to char * or
unsigned char * so that some API will accept them, even though lots of
such APIs really take a plain 'block of raw binary data' argument and
don't care what C thinks the signedness of that data might be - they
may well reinterpret it back and forth internally.
So I've tried to arrange for all the function call APIs that ought to
have a void * (or const void *) to have one, and those that need to do
pointer arithmetic on the parameter internally can cast it back at the
top of the function. That saves endless ad-hoc casts at the call
sites.
doesn't have TIOCSCTTY, so my attempt to set the ctty of the child
process isn't doing anything, and only works by chance when you run
bash because bash does the thing that _will_ set the ctty, namely
opening the terminal file again without O_NOCTTY. So now we do that
too.

unconditionally set the telnet state to SEENCR regardless of whether
we have actually seen a CR, and as a result sending a NUL through
PuTTY (via Ctrl-Space or whatever) does not work. Must have arisen
through some kind of really weird cut-and-paste error!
