dialog is distributed from GPLv2 to LGPLv2 and introduces a number of new features and a new and better libdialog API. The existing libdialog will be kept temporarily as libodialog for compatibility purposes until sade, sysinstall and tzsetup have been either updated or replaced. __FreeBSD_version is now 900030.

Add a new function, dialog_noyes(), for sysinstall to be able to

present questinos with a different default answer. Somebody submitted a patch to me once which did something this but I lost it (my bad) so I'm just going to re-implement it with thanks to whomever it was who gave me the idea.

Add support for saved trees.

Add some new functionality which I promised to add over a year a go and

1998-09-26T12:29:57Z

shamefully dropped on the floor. I need to add it now since it does a minor number bump, but otherwise the current functionality of libdialog is unchanged (in all its evil glory) and the change is non-intrusive. Submitted by: "Anatoly A. Orehovsky"

Change the aux field type to long instead of int so that it is large

enough to hold a man-sized pointer.

Add another hateful global to libdialog (what the heck, there are already

so many). For now, the only extended attribute implemented is NO ECHO, useful for things like passwords. See TESTS/input2.c for an example. This should go into 2.2.

Remove the special-case behavior for fire actions that return

DITEM_FAILURE - formerly they would simply act as an implicit "continue", but this is wrong. If you want this behavior, you should now return with the DITEM_CONTINUE flag set. Also make the semantics of DITEM_RESTORE quite a bit different - rather than restore the screen back to pre-menu state, we restore the menu itself. This is more correct for a variety of reasons when dealing with nested menus (whoops!).

More changes to attempt to make this whole new dialog scheme more

robust. The new "fire" actions, while affording signficantly more interactivity to libdialog, come at a cost - if the fire action trashes the screen then you're not going to be in Kansas anymore when you come back to the menu and there had better be considerable extra smarts in place for coping with such a situation. These changes are my attempt to do just that.

Add an `aux' field for some other gunk I'm doing.
