Re: Mouse copy/paste support

Posted on 2014-10-23, 21:17

Thanks a diff makes more sense when having this in the patches forum (where I'll move it now) ;) I'm more interested in cross platform stuff, since I'm not on Windows ;) OK, I will try to set up a working development platform on Linux system (which I have never done before, so it might take some …

Are you setting up an internet-wide or a locally installed development system? TheGreatCodeholio setup a github system available via the internet. I believe gulikoza could advise on the github setup. Edit: alternatively, if you work in windows, then mingw32 with patch/diff may suffice for a while. …

Wengier needs a good suggestion for his development system, at least as it interfaces with the community here. He obviously is creating great work on his current system. The two patches should be definitely separated, at least for testing so he has feedback. I'm currently trying to do that via a …

That's a fine idea for a github system (creating a branch of dosbox), but in the patches forum it should be by feature. You can do both, create a dosbox branch on a system like github and then post each feature as a patch on the patch forum here at vogons. Codeholio just does github, probably …

With your coding ability, the compiler will be very easy to setup. I think the easiest (some may disagree) on this procedure, but you may leave out the steps for libogg, libvorbis, and sdl_sound (including this portion of the configure line -- LIBS="-logg -lvorbis -lvorbisfile") : http://www.si- …

Great! For the linux diff tool, please try this: diff -rupN dosbox-ORIG/ dosbox-CHANGED/ > patch.diff. This will enforce the patch format where running the diff tool. There may be a lot of extra lines, but this is at least a guide to creating a patch file, and even others can parse for the relevant …

I presume this limit is "nearby" to the function "BIOS_AddKeyToBuffer", but I've yet to find the exact cause of the 15 character limit. Maybe because the BIOS keyboard buffer can hold a maximum of 16 keystrokes? ;) However, it's possible to install a relatively simple device driver or TSR with a …

Thanks for the guidance! I'll try to find a TSR that should work. 😀 Edit: and a TSR that expands keyboard buffer to 256 characters, http://cd.textfiles.com/simtel/simtel20/MSDOS … ARD/256KEYS.ZIP. Appreciate it!

An F-key assignment would be ideal. In an older project (based on someone else's code which is very hard to maintain and not nearly as good as yours), I use Ctrl-Alt-F4, but anything would be good, as long as it can be changed in the mapper or source code. Thank you again!

The pdcurses based clipboard function works great. It's a brilliant solution to cross-platform clipboard access! This addition may allow your patch to detect a "pdcurses installation" and link with the pdcurses library (requires an edit to config.h for VS users or "configure --enable-clipboard" in …

Since the clipboard patch requires a 3rd party library, it may be worthwhile to detect that library by the method in a previous post in this thread (edit to the configure.ac file). However, I didn't test it outside mingw. Also, before running configure it would be necessary to run "autogen.sh" (or …
