The gringotts-shlomif Patch
Last Updated: 01-January-2007.
The Latest Version of the Patch
This is a patch for the Gringotts encrypted note manager for Linux, by Germano Rizzo. It should be applied against version 1.2.9pre1 (available from the Debian servers) . What it does, so far is:
- Fix a data corruption bug with the search function.
- Fix the "Find again" functionality.
- Eliminate many compilation warnings caused due to a confusion between signed and unsigned char strings.
-
Integrate patch from wwp that:
- Fixes proto for find() in src/grg_entries_vis.h.
- Fixes compilation on FC3 (missing #include's to "stdio.h")
- Adds sensitivity to HTAB environment variable to change the horizontal tab value in the main editing widget (default: 8)
- Fix a data corruption problem caused by the previous data corruption fix.
- Fixed a crash in the preferences dialog caused by a previous modification.
An older version of the patch which has already been integrated into version 1.2.9pre1 made the following changes:
- Allow it to compile against recent versions of the Gtk+ library. (tested against Gtk+ 2.4.9). This is done by porting the API calls to the new ones.
- Allow it to compile with stricter gcc flags. (-Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Werror-implicit-function-declaration)
- Add keyboard shortcuts to the menus, so you can press Alt+F+S to save a file, or Alt+E+C to copy.
- Add a rudimentary autogen.sh file.
- Make sure that when searching, the text view scrolls to view the found pattern.
- Document another minor issue in the BUGS file.
