From 959eeef5052c44bddee7bc46da55e4129345b1cb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nicholas Marriott Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2009 23:16:45 +0000 Subject: FreeBSD's console wraps lines at $COLUMNS - 1 rather than $COLUMNS (the cursor can never be beyond $COLUMNS - 1) and does not appear to support changing this behaviour, or any of the obvious possibilities (turning off right margin wrapping, insert mode). This is irritating, most notably because it impossible to write to the very bottom-right of the screen without scrolling. To work around this, if built on FreeBSD and run with a "cons" $TERM, the bottom-right cell on the screen is omitted. --- tty-term.c | 22 +++++++++++++++++++++- 1 file changed, 21 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'tty-term.c') diff --git a/tty-term.c b/tty-term.c index 4e3069b8..f273e03e 100644 --- a/tty-term.c +++ b/tty-term.c @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -/* $Id: tty-term.c,v 1.12 2009-02-11 19:06:58 nicm Exp $ */ +/* $Id: tty-term.c,v 1.13 2009-02-11 23:16:44 nicm Exp $ */ /* * Copyright (c) 2008 Nicholas Marriott @@ -148,6 +148,26 @@ tty_term_quirks(struct tty_term *term) term->codes[TTYC_ICH1].value.string = xstrdup("\033[@"); } } + +#ifdef __FreeBSD__ + if (strncmp(term->name, "cons", 4) == 0) { + /* + * FreeBSD's console wraps lines at $COLUMNS - 1 rather than + * $COLUMNS (the cursor can never be beyond $COLUMNS - 1) and + * does not appear to support changing this behaviour, or any + * of the obvious possibilities (turning off right margin + * wrapping, insert mode). + * + * This is irritating, most notably because it is impossible to + * write to the very bottom-right of the screen without + * scrolling. + * + * Flag the terminal here and apply some workarounds in other + * places to do the best possible. + */ + term->flags |= TERM_EARLYWRAP; + } +#endif } struct tty_term * -- cgit
