putty-source/unix/GTK2.TODO
Simon Tatham 50d4d05679 TODO update: I don't think it's worth switching to GTK2's native
shortcut mechanism. The existing code doesn't use any deprecated
calls, and translating shortcut text _into_ Pango markup just sounds
too unpleasant to do if I don't actually have to. Not to mention
that the documentation for the Pango markup language doesn't tell me
how to distinguish a mnemonic underscore prefix from a literal
underscore in label text, but I know my current code can get that
right (the current config box talks about TCP_NODELAY and
SO_KEEPALIVE in widget labels that also have functioning shortcuts).

TODO for PuTTY GTK2 port before merging back into main trunk code
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Things to do before deciding a merge is feasible:
- 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.
- Update the autoconf build. Richard B says he had to replace
AM_PATH_GTK([1.2.0],
with
AM_PATH_GTK_2_0([2.0.0],
+ also I'll need to detect early Pangoi and enable my magic
switches in gtkfont.c.
+ and I'll probably also want to detect GTK2 vs GTK1
automatically - _and_ provide a command line switch on
configure to select one manually.
Things to do once GTK2 development is complete:
- Make sure we haven't broken GTK1.
+ In particular, I know I _have_ broken GTK1 by taking out all
the GTK1-style list box code. Put it all back in under ifdefs,
which will be unpleasant but necessary.
Things to do at point of actual merge:
- Mention Colin in the website's licence page.
