PR pkg/29335 (Thomas Wolff): Update editors/mined to mined-2000.13.2:
mined 2000.13
* Documentation enhancements: Revised manual structure, featuring more \
comprehensive new chapters on
o Structured editing support
o Character handling support
o Language support
* Character encoding support enhancements: Auto-detection and explicit \
selection of UTF-16 with and without BOM (big endian and little endian).
* Updated to Unicode 5.0.0 (final, from beta2 in 2000.12).
* Character input support enhancements: Added support for multiple accented \
character input.
* Additional accent prefix keys for most frequent accents of all Latin-based \
languages (macron, breve, dot above, ogonek, caron, stroke).
* Added support for convenient combining character input with accent prefix keys.
* Added support for convenient quotation marks input with accent prefix keys.
* Support for Greek (monotonic and polytonic).
* Support for Cyrillic accented characters.
* Interactive enhancements: Revised menu structure to be more intuitive.
* Improved menu handling system.
* Interoperability enhancements: Making use of xterm 216 mode which provides \
detection of Alt-/Control-modified digits and punctuation keys.
* Improved support for some legacy terminals.
* File handling enhancements: Consistent setting of file access modes when \
cloning a file or creating a new file with executable permission.
mined 2000.12
* Character encoding support enhancements: Updated to Unicode 5.0.0 beta2:
o Case conversion, Script information.
o Combining character width properties.
o Han information (from Unihan database) for CJK characters.
o Radical/Stroke input method.
o Added character input mnemonics for new LATIN characters.
* Supplemented Big5 character set with HKSCS-2004 update from \
http://info.gov.hk/digital21/eng/hkscs/, adding more than 100 characters. \
Handling covers mappings to two Unicode characters, like for JIS encodings.
* Revised interpretation of locale environment variables to comply with \
de-facto locale standard but yet allowing flexible locale configuration for both \
text and terminal encoding. This mechanism is supplemented by other options with \
useful precedences. Command line options to specify text or terminal encoding \
were revised, enhanced, and made more comprehensive.
* Revised terminal encoding handling to support also mapped 8-bit encodings \
including handling of combining characters (with auto-detection).
* Generally revised handling of text and terminal encoding to support all \
combinations of them.
* Supporting lots of additional 8-bit encodings for both text encoding and \
terminal encoding. Structured Encoding menu with submenus for concise text \
encoding selection.
* Optional Unicode Copy/Paste buffer mode with implicit conversion.
* Character handling support enhancements: Supplemented Cangjie input method \
with additional mappings from HKSCS-2004 Changjie input code table.
* Case conversion is now always (i.e. in all encodings) based on Unicode.
* Shift-F3 case cycling function now uses actual Unicode title case characters \
when appropriate and available.
* Smart quotes enabled in all text encodings.
* Updated HTML character mnemonics to HTML 4.01.
* Interworking enhancements: Improved intuitive assignment of copy/paste \
functions to keypad, enhanced flexbility of usage.
* Further improvements on terminal interworking (even version-specific), \
especially with KDE konsole. Added kterm encoding auto-detection.
* Other enhancements: New password hiding feature, selected by default for \
"hidden" files.
* Extended default installation by some aliases and wrappers:
o minmacs, mstar, mpico for invocation of mined in emulation modes for emacs, \
WordStar, pico (alpha), respectively
o umined, xmined for invocation of mined in a separate terminal window
o uterm to invoke a new terminal window with a maximum of Unicode support \
achievable on the system, including best-choice font selection
mined 2000.11
* Unicode support enhancements: Updated to Unicode 4.1.0:
o Case conversion, Script information.
o Combining character width properties.
o Han information (from Unihan database) for CJK characters.
o Radical/Stroke input method (to include new CJK characters).
o Added Hanyu Pinlu and Tang pronunciation information (from Unihan database) \
to Han information options.
o Added generic and supplemental character input mnemonics for new LATIN \
characters.
* Indication and character information of Unicode combining characters now \
refers to the most recent Unicode version, not the actual terminal capabilities.
* Interactive enhancements: Conciliated keypad assignment preference conflict \
between Cut/Paste functions (as propagated by mined) and character deletion / \
line positioning functions (as often commonly expected):
o The more common Home/End/Delete function assignments to the respective \
keypad keys are also easily accessible (e.g. Alt-Del).
o Documentation for alternative assignment option improved.
o Using Del without a paste buffer gives an additional hint on alternative usage.
* Additional assignment of "Delete single" function (to delete \
without auto-undent, or to delete the last combining accent only) to F5 \
Backarrow.
* Additional commands (HOP) F1 F1 / Shift-F1 / Control-F1 / Alt-F1 to display a \
help status line of (shifted) function key assignments.
* Slight revision of function key assignments to improve intuitive usage and \
compliance with common usage. Unification of DOS version function key \
assignments.
* Interoperability enhancements: Improved detection of shifted function keys on \
various kinds and modes of terminals.
* Added keyboard configuration examples for Control-function key detection for \
rxvt and mlterm to the runtime support library.
* Added script to support Unicode X font installation to the runtime support \
library.
* Modified xterm start script "uterm" so that with newer xterm \
versions (from 201) usage of the xterm built-in most recent version of Unicode \
width data is enabled (which is often more current than the system-provided \
locale version).
* Provided makefile for Interix.
* Feature enhancements: Smart arrows added to optional smart input text \
replacements.
* New word case toggle function Shift-F3 cycling word casing between all small, \
beginning capital, and all capitals.
* The "search corresponding bracket" commands ESC ( or ESC ) now also \
match /* */ pairs and #if #else/#elsif #endif structures.
* New TAB expansion option (-+4 or -+8) that expands TAB key input to an \
appropriate number of Space characters.
* Further enhancements: Using paps (a Pango printing script) for printing if \
available.
* Added PC DOS encoding ("codepage 437") to available encodings.
mined 2000.10

startup scripts.
