AKFAvatar - News: AKFAvatar 0.19.0 [Savannah]
Summary
AKFAvatar 0.19.0 The most important improvement this version brings is support for the Lua programming language. Lua was chosen, because it is very, very small and can be bundled with the binary packages. However, users who know another programming language already should not have any problems to learn Lua-AKFAvatar. Well, the terminal emulation wont be rewritten in Lua, but it will most probably become a separate application in one of the next versions. Short overview of the changes • Lua support with program lua-akfavatar — use "./configure --disable-lua" to build without Lua • largely improved support for charset-encodings under Windows using "win_iconv" (still behind GNU/Linux, but tremendously better than before) • fix: on text-input the input area gets cleared • title can have international characters if avt_mb_encoding is called before avt_initialize (but not relyable) • the pager can handle binary junk better • filechooser: on windows ask for drive letter only when going beyond the root directory • ./configure: experimental support for "--host=mingw" and "--host=x86" (but dont expect it to work out of the box) • avt_free_audio: when the given sound is playing, stops it
