      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      Lazy clearing of backgrounds - pages with the same background image or
      colour won't be cleared to grey when going from one to the next anymore.
      
      BODY element onLoad script attribute implemented properly (beyond the
      Customer hackery).
      
      Images use independent flex blocks for URL and transient fetch data;
      greatly improved data throughput in image system as a result. Image
      renumbering implemented - speeds up closing of pages / frames with
      many images. Image xref is still rather slow though and images with
      a 0 width or height specified in the HTML still cause an incorrectly
      formatted page to appear.
      
      Have, I think, fixed the "stops anti-aliasing" bug. Noticed that some
      background images are not being processed as Fast (e.g. at the
      Fibblesnork Lego Guide) - that old problem has reappeared, then.
      
      Background images would cross reference when two pages had the same
      background colour set in <body> elements but one was configured to use
      document colours and one wasn't (so xref should not occur). Code was
      looking at b->background_colour; corrected to call redraw_backcol(b).
      
      Titles were added to the history according to the fetch URL not the
      display URL, though the former is more likely to be in the history due
      to the code execution order in the fetcher; changed to see whether this
      improves upon the rather hit and miss addition of titles.
      
      The 'about:' page now gets entered into the history (makes for much more
      sensible behaviour if it is configured as a Home page, for example).

      Another intermediate check-in, resources may not be up to date; items most likely to be buildable are PhoenixJ and BrowseD. Done because I'm about to make some rather dodgy changes to code otherwise unchanged since the Customer browser and I may well have to back them out...
      
      In Handlers.c now set the HFlags_HasBeenVisited bit of a token at the point
      it is first clicked on. Means the link returns to a "visited" colour after
      the highlight flash immediately. This will persist for as long as the browser
      window is kept open on that page, though if the URL doesn't end up making it
      into the history for whatever reason it would "unhighlight" on reload; fair
      enough, really. The highlight is window-local, so there are no redraw worries
      for other open windows with links to the same URL (though other same-URL
      links on the same page aren't updated either).
      
      All forms submissions force a reload (principally for eudoramail.com, but
      many other sites have similar requirements).
      
      !MkClean and !MkClnAll didn't correctly call the utility to strip Makefile
      dependencies. Fixed.
      
      On fetch closedown, fetchpage_preprocess_token could be called on a token
      which had already been run through the preprocessor. Now checks the flags
      word before proceeding.
      
      Image RAM cache and garbage collection system implemented - see new Choices
      file entries CollectAfter, FreeRAMLimit and UnusedImageLimit to get an
      overview. This contains groundwork for JavaScript image array support.
      
      More JavaScript support improvements. Any one window object will know its
      parent, top, this, etc.; frames array working except for a frameset created
      via. multiple documents; opener for something created with window.open is
      currently not set and don't know why (property is being created, pointer to
      valid object is held, but JS engine returns 'null'. Ho hum) - JSChain won't
      work yet, then.

      Everyone else seems to be checking lots of stuff in lately, so I've decided to join in. This is an intermediate check-in and so not all resources etc. will be up to date. You should be able to make Phoenix and a debug build out of it. As a reminder, to make a JavaScript build:
      
       * Build JSLib and NSPRLib. Recommend you leave -DUSEMEMLIB in there (as
         used by default) so you can watch it leak into a dynamic area... :-)
         If you do this, you'll need to build MemLib too, of course. If you
         do NOT use MemLib, *undefine JS_USING_MEMLIB in Main.c*!
       * Run !MkClean. This now strips dynamic dependencies from the MakeFile
         automatically, to save you having to do it yourself.
       * Run one of the TaskObey files with the "J" suffix, e.g. !DeskBrwsJ -
         this uses the same .o directory for object files and exports to the
         same position in the Targets directory as the non-JavaScript build,
         but it does produce a unique binary in 'abs' and symbols table in
         'syms'.
       * Sourcing an appropriate !Run (with increased WimpSlot value), !Boot
         and About resource is done automatically.
       * Some, but not all of the !xxxD (debug) TaskObey files will make
         JavaScript versions in passing - check the JSUFFIX value on the Make
         command line parameters in the file.
      
      This'll only work on RISC OS 3.1 due to the use of MemLib.
      
      Here's the change list:
      
      Included MNG icons in sprites files; added Sprites23 for some builds.
      Added in ANT URL file icon (b28) derived from URI file icon, because
      the Save dialogue can need it.
      
      No, you do *not* need to define the same keyboard shortcuts in each
      frame since the ancestor keeps the input focus and we've basically
      dropped non-nested Wimp support. Maintaining no less than 4 lists of
      identical shortcuts was a pain. Some Res files now only have the
      lists in the main browser window and button bar objects (these two
      are both required still).
      
      Ursula build Markers button arrangement changed from 1x3 horizontal to
      2x2 tilted, as in Phoenix, by popular demand.
      
      Couple of hotlist bugs fixed; dragging an item and deleteing it with
      Ctrl+X didn't terminate the drag, and deleteting an item underneath a
      menu opened for it didn't close the menu.
      
      'SendReferer' option added to all Choices files, all set to 'always'.
      Put just beneath 'Clone' as it refers to header items, though really,
      both Clone and SendReferer should probably be in the "Fetch controls"
      section rather than "Multiuser environments and proxying"! Front-end
      control of this is available.
      
      In image_export_original, save_save_source, save_transfer_source and
      save_save_object, flex_set_budge(0) was called to lock the heap but the
      return value wasn't stored. flex_set_budge(1) was then used to unlock
      the heap. All calls now remember and restore the old value, which is
      both safer in case one calls another and allows the flex_set_budge
      call in Main.c to have an application-wide meaning, as intended.
      
      Some restructuring to the data load and RAM transfer sections of
      Protocols.c; remote hotlist builds wouldn't allow files to be loaded
      to browser windows before, and can now drop URL, URI or text files to
      the Open URL dialogue.
      
      New option "MinimumFontSize", lets the 'size' attribute of the 'font'
      element be overridden. Default value is 1, to allow the full range of
      values for the attribute. Setting to 7, for example, would give font
      size 7 text at all times. Another new option, "ToggleOnXOnly", to
      make Toggle Size only extend the window vertically (with Ctrl then
      being used to toggle to genuine full size, rather than vice versa).
      All Choices files updated to hold both of these options; only the
      first has front-end control available (see debug build Res file).
      
      JavaScript Document object exists; frames array etc. working. Can now
      just about use "http://www.acorn.com/~ahodgkin/jschain/" but it does
      abort after a bit - problems with frames again, I suspect. Is is pretty
      slow, too. Can now press Escape to terminate a script.
      
      Main.c erroneously referred to Controls file entry "StopWebServe" as
      "StopWebProxy". Fixed.
      
      Keyboard shortcuts to raise SaveFile are now possible in a general sense;
      the code before was in the ToBeShown handler and just checked for a parent
      component of -1. It then assumed "save frame HTML source". Now there's the
      savefile_raise_from_shortcut function, which together with the seven new
      event codes in SaveFile.h allows saving of HTML source and frame location,
      export of links, images, backgrounds and the page as text or draw, to all
      be invoked by keyboard shortcuts. Some Res files have some of these defined.
      
      In reformat_check_height, the first check to see if setpara should be set
      references a field in tpLast without checking if it is NULL. Whilst the
      'line > 0' check should mean that tpLast wasn't NULL anyway, a direct
      call to the function from outside of the reformatter might have tripped
      up on this - the check for tpLast != NULL is now made.
      
      Adjust-click on close icon in window showing file: URL attempts to open
      the parent Filer window.
      
      Reformatter used to try and find a selectable token if keyboard control
      was enabled in a really stupid place - could make reformatting become
      very slow if no selectables were present, especially if the page had a
      few tables on it. Preprocessor now does this (since it goes through all
      of the tokens anyway), the reformatter just doing a last check to ensure
      no frames have obscured the selectable and if so, it tries to move it.
      Done in the reformatter as generating a line array implies the data really
      is visible.
      
      Ctrl+Tab URL completion now builds a full list of matches from the hotlist
      and history and can cycle through them (Ctrl+Shift+Tab stepping backwards).
      
      Will give a real error rather than just "Data Abort" if it goes wrong
      now. Someone somewhere is setting bit 30 of the error which confused
      the replacement signal handler. Flag bits are now masked off (as they
      should've been to start with).

      MIDI themes is unreachable, Hensa has been restructured.
      
      For table cells where the line or chunk data totals less than Flex_256_Point
      bytes (see top of Memory.c, current value is 8192) there would be an over-
      allocation of 1 byte per cell due to a (now fixed) bug in the granular
      allocator. This would translate into 4 bytes wastage of course, and may
      represent a small speed penalty depending on how flex works out block
      word alignment.
      
      Several entries in the Choices file were missing from save_save_choices in
      its new form (see last check-in). Added back in. Ursula and Phoenix Res
      files contained an incorrect component ID in pane 3 that was stopping the
      'no scroll bars' option in pane 7 working correctly (duplicate component
      ID). Res files corrected; TRACE builds will now spot such errors and give
      a warning when they occur (in choices_find_component).
      
      Table widthing code fixes:
      
       * Very wide table cell specifiers (e.g. TD WIDTH="2000") were ignored,
         but this isn't what Navigator / MSIE 4 do. This code was present
         because of other bugs in the widther, long since fixed. The code has
         been commented out - if the problem reappears the use of the code can
         be re-investigated, but as far as I can tell it isn't needed.
      
       * If two pixel specified cells appear one above the other, the first
         would always have been taken for use in the final width calculation
         even if it specified a smaller width than the second. The check was
         made to ensure that pixel specifiers were chosen in preference to
         other cells, which is OK, but it didn't notice if the current cell
         was also a pixel specifier! Fixed; you now get the widest.
      
       * The TRACE build 'Colspan cell xxx would have been width yyy, below
         minimum width of zzz' error should no longer happen. In a manner similar
         to the bug mentioned above, two cells above each other spanning the
         same columns with the lower cell narrower than the upper would end up
         with the narrower width. The code that trapped and corrected the error
         was not compiled out of release builds, even though the error message
         generation was, because the rendering would fail otherwise. The widther
         has now been fixed not to make this mistake and the final check is now
         strictly TRACE build only, thereby speeding up table widthing for
         non-TRACE builds.
      
       * Another use of MSIE4StyleTables option, for cellspacing; it's based
         on the actual used cells, rather than the maximum cell width caused
         by COLSPAN etc. So if you've a cell with a big COLSPAN but as a
         heading but the rest of the table only uses, say, 4 columns, you won't
         get a gap to the right which adds up to the spacing for all of the
         cells that the COLSPAN attribute in the heading implied. The option
         was actually intended as 'bad things when switched on', and though in
         this case it makes for a better rendering, it does hide an error in
         the HTML. Note Navigator 4 acts as Browse with MSIE4StyleTables off
         in this particular case. Oh, it works in both ways of course, so
         the table height routine had to be updated too. A new function,
         tables_find_actual_size, exists to support the feature in general.
      
      Messages files updated to v2.05 (21-Apr-98). Help menu items renamed a
      bit in Ursula, Phoenix and Customer Res files, but entries still point
      to the same URLs. Phoenix button bar markers have been brought closer
      together to stop them being visible when only the URL bar is meant to
      be present.

      All !Run[D], Choices, Messages, Controls and Res files are up to date. · c55f6452
      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      RefoKeep and RefoHold options added to, respectively, try and maintain
      the line at the top of the visible area when reformatting, and not shrink
      the vertical extent at the start of a reformat to try and avoid flicker
      to the top of the page and back down again when RefoKeep is on. Choices
      front-end implemented, which also allows RefoWait and RefoTime to be set.
      Unfortunately for various reasons this doesn't help the page jumping when
      unsized images come in (but RefoHold can improve matters...) - roll on
      the image history.
      
      DragToScroll and NoScrollBars options added for frames; included new
      pointer type, Mouse_Shape_DTS, so relevant Controls file entries done
      and Sprites[22] files updated as required. Noticed some builds have
      a low-res ptr_link with a mask - mask removed.
      
      Named anchor following fixed up somewhat - anchors near the bottom of
      the page shouldn't be displayed, and then pulled down when the fetcher
      releases null polls and ensures the y extent is correct (this through
      implementing the min_height field in the browser_data structure).
      
      RefoHang was never implemented and there seems little point to it now,
      so the entry for it has been removed from the global choices structure
      and all Choices files.
      
      Markers menus should work properly now (in last check-in they would not
      update correctly if Adjust was used on the entries).
      
      URI handler usage now a lot more sensible, with configuration of how the
      browser uses the module from both a Utils menu submenu (sic) and the
      Choices dialogue.
      
      Slightly dodgy 'hang around waiting for user input' stuff for the Cookies
      dialogue box: All fetches are suspended; the fetcher remembers some info
      about its state at the time the cookie came in, and restores it later; it
      will only do this for one fetch at a time. It's necessary to single-thread
      the fetcher at this point anyway, since other fetches may have a
      dependency on the cookie that is hanging in mid-air at that point. As part
      of this, some of the fetcher code has been split out into separate
      functions (to try and 'black box' the code a bit). Anyway, Cookie Query
      dialogue box now implemented with appropriate Choices file entry and
      UI work in the Choices dialogue box.
      
      Phoenix build Choices rearranged. Can now choose when the image history
      is saved from the front end. Added also MSIE 4-style table option menu
      for JPEG support (OS only, OS if it can handle it, internal only).
      
      Should be a bit faster at loading the history - though 95% of the time
      is spent in SWI URL_ParseURL. URL descriptions are stored more
      efficiently as part of this - one malloc block instead of several
      small blocks. The minimum block size for malloc blocks typically leads
      to a significantly smaller startup wimpslot depending on the visit
      history size.
      
      Nasty bug in image system fixed. If an image size came in and a reformat
      was to take place, the line the image lies in is found and the reformat
      progresses from there. Unforunately, this didn't check to see if the
      token can't be found in the line list, so it'd reformat from the top
      of the page...! This would happen if, for example, an image halfway down
      the page came in whilst a reformat for an image higher up had just begun.
      
      In Choices.c, made choices_set_timetype_field, choices_set_uri_field,
      choices_set_plugin_field, choices_set_cookie_field, and
      choices_set_jpeg_field static (so they're not declared in Choices.h now).
      
      Two memory leaks plugged in URL comparison routines in URLutils.c
      (calling free() url_description instead of urlutils_free_descripton()).
      
      Client pull reload handler was setting the reload flag if reloading
      the same page, but forgetting to turn on reload_lock so
      fetchpage_postprocessed was clearing the reload state... Similarly,
      Ctrl+Shift+SELECT-Click on a link when the Controls file 'UseSmall'
      entry is 'no' would not have reloaded as it should. Both fixed.
      
      Frames shouldn't be so keen on acquiring horizontal scroll bars and never
      letting them go when their width is decreased now. Frames set up for
      'scrolling="yes"' will not start with no scroll bars and then gain them
      shortly afterwards, causing flicker and two reformats - they'll start
      with, and continue to hold, both scroll bars.
      
      Pointer shouldn't flicker when over a frame border whilst other fetches
      are progressing now.

      This is NOT a 'final' version of anything in particular. I'm checking it in as I'm about to start playing around with low level window handling
      
      (as part of the thing mentioned at the bottom of this log) - this could
      screw things up quite badly if it goes wrong! =8*P
      
      Consequently, I advise you not to check this out over your working sources,
      and preferably not to check this out at all.
      
      Markers system - events defined in MiscEvents.h will make Browse remember
      where it is on the page. This position can be jumped back to later.
      Some builds will have defined keyboard shortcuts Ctrl+Shift+F5 through
      F8 to set a marker, and Ctrl+F5 through F8 to jump to a marker.
      
      The front-end for the above now has gadgets 0x80 upwards on the Toolbar or
      a set of menus (see Menus.h). Noticed an omission in copy_toolaction_info()
      (didn't copy the gadget state) in passing; fixed.
      
      browser_top_line() now works properly, as part of the above, but it'll be
      slower than before. If flagged to only find a complete line, it'll do just
      that, but whereas before this would require any tables that it looked
      inside to be wholly visible, tables can now be partially visible and have
      lines inside that are fully visible. This should help the Find function
      too. There is a new call, browser_top_line_offset, which works as
      browser_top_line but also returns a vertical scroll offset in the found
      line (used for more accurate marker position). browser_bottom_line[_r]
      turn out to never be used, even by the keyboard control routines, so they
      have been removed from Browser.c (rather than spend a lot of time and
      effort fixing them).
      
      browser_show_token erroneously subtracted 1 from a particular coordinate
      when calculating the y scroll position, which could lead to single pixel
      page creep using the markers system. Corrected.
      
      The View Resources button (see Toolbars.h) has been finally implemented,
      insofar as it fetches the resources file to the current browser page (or
      to a new window if Adjust is used, Controls file settings permitting).
      
      menus_toggle_bars did not take account of the toolbar lower window border
      edge correctly. It does now.
      
      The reformatter has a prototype system to keep the vertical page position
      when reformatting. This was coded about 5 minutes ago, and is not likely
      to be reliable...

      Some compile-time hacks in place to use MemLib, a dynamic area based
      malloc replacement which shrinks its heap when possible. All builds
      have these switched off at the moment. Seemed to work with just Browse,
      though there would be problems with message blocks stored in dynamic
      areas because of the Wimp's '&3800000' check - however, it failed when
      HTMLLib was made to use it, too. Don't know why yet.
      
      ItemInfo.[c/h] source added, with Res file additions for testbed Browse
      and Phoenix.
      
      Small fetch windows now work properly regardless of toolbar settings
      in the Choices.
      
      Reload now reloads all images too, rather than only reloading them for
      as long as the main page was being fetched.
      
      Added a simple 'Find' facility.
      
      Realised that event handlers in eventlib are called in reverse order
      of registration, so the miscellaneous event handler is now registered
      first rather than last.
      
      Multiuser code added (most only active if SINGLE_USER is undefined). As
      part of this, hotlist code now knows about read-only items (done for the
      Customer-style 'Resources' file, but works generally anyway).
      handle_add_hotlist doesn't try to save the hotlist itself anymore (the
      hotlist_add function does all that through hotlist_modified anyway).
      
      Customer build Choices and Controls updated slightly (e.g. ClaimHelp
      off, hotlist to save on quit only).
      
      Customer build now uses Phoenix-style buttons. Sprites files which
      worked at the time (but will probably be out of date now) and included
      most of the original Customer-style sprites are in
      'Utils.Icons.Customer'.
      
      Choices, Messages and Res files for all builds now stripped down to only
      single user items or single plus multiuser for Customer build and testbed
      build. Before, all contained a few multiuser bits in at least the Choices
      file if not more.
      
      Grammatical error ("Fetching frames contents" (sic.)) corrected in
      default message, Toolbars.c, and all of the Messages files.
      
      Customer build brought back to a servicable level (including
      implementation of the Find dialogue box with animation and fixing
      up authorisation and 'Stop' state in the tristate). Quite a few
      missing #ifndef REMOTE_HOTLIST bits from hotlist code added...
      
      Customer build will not use <Choices$Write> or Boot:Choices for any
      file finding now. UseProxy defaults to 'yes', MaxImages to 2. Res
      file includes Proxy Address setting (save_save_choices() now writes
      the ProxyAddress line).

      Precautions taken in table code to avoid divide by zero errors.
      
      Framesets defining more frames than the frameset implies, for whatever
      reason, should never cause a crash now - just report a 'Frames definition
      is badly nested' error (if STRICT_PARSER defined). Along the same lines,
      in a single document defining a set of nested frames, two /FRAMESETs in
      succession could cause a fairly nasty crash. Fixed.
      
      TIFFs do not get loaded by double-click now.
      
      If holding down SHIFT to save a link contents to disc, you can also hold
      down CTRL to bypass the cache (sets the browser's reloading flag). Noticed
      when testing this that windows_create_browser didn't take account of the
      Controls file 'UseSmall' entry when adjust-shift-clicking on links. It
      does now.
      
      There is now a complete and up to date set of interactive help messages
      built into the Ursula, Customer and Phoenix build Res files.

      Check for WindowManager 3.97 and ensure Unicode$Path is set in all !Run[D] files, don't set the Alias$@PrintType_FF4 variable, and updated
      
      Customer build ROM obey file variants. Various other changes to
      the Run files for new module versions, updated paths to support
      new positions of choices, hotlist and histories (see later), etc.
      
      !Sprites[22] files hold small !app icons for some variants, and
      an ic_browse sprite. Some variants now have a Sprites and Sprites22
      file instead of just Sprites, with the former containing various
      mode 12 or 15 specific sprites.
      
      Text files dragged to the URL writable are treated as ANT URL files. This
      relies on URLBarWrit (Toolbars.h) being a unique ID, which it should be,
      but beware of the Hotlist and Choices numberspaces...
      
      INPUT TYPE=BUTTON supported. Form items without a FORM tag are now shown
      (as MSIE 4, but not NN 4).
      
      '*', '-', '@', '_' and '.' are not escaped when submitting forms now. The
      Web interface to the IMDb now works.
      
      INPUT TYPE=HIDDEN items will not affect the line height anymore - so
      http://www.hotmail.com/ now has correctly aligned writable icons, for
      example. Similarly, TAG_FORM and TAG_FORM_END items could push up
      line height and don't anymore.
      
      HRs with a specified pixel width will now influence the size of a table
      cell (they didn't before).
      
      BRs now checked by tagno field when the browser needs to know something
      was an actual BR tag rather than just a line break signal, and by the
      style bit entry when only the indication of a line break is required.
      
      Table widths of 0 or 0% are ignored.
      
      Trace.c updated to report height and background fields in a table_stream.
      
      fm_putsl() writes a terminator into the string; the Forms.c routines were
      calling this for displaying INPUT TYPE=PASSWORD fields using the FE_PassCode
      literal string (a line of stars). This write into a read only data area
      would make the debugger fault the access. A local char array is now used
      instead, to get round this (note the use of var[]=literal rather than
      var[sizeof(literal)]; strcpy(var, literal) due to some weird compiler bug
      that copies the wrong thing into 'var' under some (undefined...)
      circumstances).
      
      Text areas don't scroll back to the top line when clicked in anymore;
      single line writables don't scroll back to the left either. When
      reentering a text area from 'above', the caret appears at the top line
      rather than 'somewhere further down'...
      
      ARROWS_MOVE_OUT compile time option at the top of Forms.c defines whether
      you must press Tab/Shift+Tab to move between writable fields in forms or
      if up/down will drop out of them, though if keyboard control is on this
      is enforced (or you get trapped inside the form!).
      
      urlutils_filetype_from_url now uses MimeMap module.
      
      If fetcher is told a page is text, it'll check for a filename extension and
      may choose to use this instead (e.g. it may find it's HTML instead). This
      is to try and get around duff servers... (e.g. http://www.batalarms.co.uk/).
      
      Save dialogues shouldn't flicker when options that don't change the
      filetype are selected (before, the draggable sprite was always reset for
      each selection). Noticed the erroneous setting of a static variable in
      SaveFile.c by a call to this by SaveObject.c, and so added a flag to
      savefile_set_filetype to deal with this - would have been possible to get
      the wrong filetype sent to applications or at best the wrong filetype
      sprite in the dialogue without that.
      
      The caret shouldn't jump out of a form back to the URL writable if the page
      reformats now.
      
      Table background colours now supported (as in the colour you see in the
      border space if the cellspacing is large enough; this is as in MSIE, not
      as in Navigator). Drawfile output routines updated accordingly.
      
      Corrected erroneous use of wimpt_dx() / wimpt_dy() in a couple of places
      in Images.c, which meant that (say) 1x1 images didn't work correctly in
      medium resolution display modes.
      
      Now have support for save as text (component ID and event 0x12) and save
      as Draw (component ID and event 0x13) buttons. Dubious conditions for
      greying and ungreying the print, save source and view source buttons and
      menu options sorted out as part of implementing the same for the two new
      buttons; added greying out of their associated menu items in passing.
      
      Turned kerning on in draw file objects (does mean a rather heinous
      increase in file size, but this is the only way to ensure the draw file
      matches the visible page).
      
      Comments before functions in SaveDraw.c are now complete and up to date.
      
      Image and visit histories now generate a crude hash number to speed up
      searching for items. It does give a speed increase, though it's a
      disappointingly small one.
      
      Issue of left/right margins and cellpaddings sorted out. Now have
      redraw_left/right_margin for finding out the basic gap you must leave.
      redraw_left/right_gap then gives any extra indentation for LI, BLOCKQUOTE
      or whatever. The last two can be subtracted from the display width to
      get an available page width for any section of text. Note that
      redraw_left_gap replaces redraw_margin. The redraw_start_x function
      uses the above to work out where a line's left hand edge should be,
      taking account of left/right/centre alignment. HRs have been fixed now
      (they were quite broken in v1.30, I think) based on this new model and
      the behaviour of MSIE/NN 4.
      
      Fixed width of cells with no contents - cell padding values wouldn't
      have worked properly as the reformatter returns 0 rather than the left
      hand margin size if given no stream.
      
      Removed FM_Absolute flags for Font_Paint (spotted by DBrown) - sets bit
      2, which is reserved...?
      
      IMG width and height in % terms now works correctly; a % of available
      width (after margins and indents) or height on the main page or for
      a table cell, if the image lies in one. Because of the chicken-and-egg
      problem with the latter, the cell must specify a width and/or height
      for things to work properly. If this is not done, you'll usually end
      up with a 1:1 scaled image (as in Navigator 4, rather than ending up
      with no image or even no cell (!), as in MSIE 4).
      
      HEIGHT attribute on a TABLE tag is supported, but only in a crude
      fashion; the extra height (if there is any) is distributed over the
      rows in a linear fashion. This is probably all you have to do in
      practice, but I haven't checked. To maintain a notion of min/max
      height as well as width would of course require a great deal more
      work...
      
      If using client pull to reload a page with a fragment ('...#name')
      specified, then the reload wouldn't work on the same page; it'd just
      jump to the fragment position. This won't happen if b->reloading is
      set now (so works in conjunction with client pull on the same page
      forcing a non-cached fetch). Similarly, if POSTing to such a URL,
      a fetch will proceed (both these fixes done originally for
      http://jupiter.beseen.com/chat/rooms/g/1678/).
      
      browser_inherit split to browser_inherit and browser_inherit_post_data;
      the code for the latter didn't clear any post_data in the child before
      copying from the parent either, and could cause flex errors (now fixed).
      
      Res file for Ursula ('Desktop' Browse) build tweaked - bits in the
      font choices dialogue renamed, and button bar rearranged to hold the
      new Save As Draw button. Other builds have had Save As Draw and
      Save As Text buttons added, or not, depending upon availability of
      suitable sprites, required UI simplicity, etc.
      
      Now have:
      
        Browse$ChoicesFile
        Browse$ControlsFile
        Browse$ChoicesSave
        Browse$ControlsSave
      
      (the last two are new) for loading and saving of the Choices or Controls
      files. If unset, <App$Dir>.Choices or <App$Dir>.Controls will be set.
      E.g., you could set Browse$ChoicesFile to be:
      
        <App$Dir>.Choices,Choices:WWW.(app).Choices
      
      for loading and
      
        <Choices$Write>.WWW.(app).Choices
      
      for saving. (The browser never saves Controls at the moment, so the
      relevant variable above isn't effectively implemented, but could be
      in future). Similarly, to support asymetric loading/saving of the Hotlist,
      there are HotlistSave, HistorySave and ImageHistorySave entries in Choices
      to complement HotlistPath, HistoryPath and ImageHistoryPath (which are used
      for loading). save_save_choices will create directories as needed to obtain
      the given path (and has also been fixed in various areas that hadn't been
      tested out until now; e.g. zero termination of the AppName$ChoicesFile
      variable expansion...). !Run[D] files updated appropriately.
      
      Table widthing code rewritten. Slower, but a lot better on the whole.
      Still has some problems - still needs a final 'make sure nothing is
      below minimum width' scan, which it should be possible to do without.
      No time to fix this at present!
      
      The reformatter will now 'glue together' an LI token followed by any
      non-LI token; so a bullet point followed by an item should not be able to
      have a line break inserted after the bullet because of very tight width
      constraints (it could before - yuk...).
      
      'about:' brings up a page about the browser and any Plug-Ins, as with
      Navigator (for example).
      
      URI files support titles, as per spec. version 8. Saving a current
      location to the Hotlist will thus give a sensible title now (unless
      you're in a frame, so there's no title to get...). Of course, v1.00
      files without a title still work.
      
      Note that NOBR is *not* supported in this build and this combined with
      the new table widther may cause problems on some sites (e.g. Microsoft's
      home page!).

      There are a few known significant problems with this code but it's being checked in so the Choices can be worked on. Note that Res files etc. are not up to date across all builds. Progress is as follows...
      
      Bug report prompted me to do this - now ignore <p> tags straight after
      <li> tags, so '<ul><li><p>Some text' works as the author (or automatic
      generator, more commonly) intended.
      
      A <p> tag before a table will be acted upon now (it was ignored before).
      Something like <li><p><table...> will give a line break and paragraph
      space after the <li> despite the changes mentioned above, as in other browsers.
      Both browsers differ from Navigator, where the table appears alongside
      the <li> tag.
      
      Multiple BR tags work as in MSIE / Navigator (they don't collapse to
      zero height anymore).
      
      For the above, line height (and so, <br><br> or <p> spacing) is now
      calculated inside reformat_text_line_height, and is used with either
      a token to get the text height at a given size (e.g. for general line
      spacing or multiple BR tags) or NULL for normal size text (e.g. for
      P spacing, though this value is in practice later scaled by 7/8ths in
      reformat_check_height). Note this behaviour is exhibited by MSIE 4;
      v3 gave two BRs the same spacing as one P (i.e. not font size
      dependent).
      
      Save dialogues can have an option button or couple of radios to
      switch between various formats (e.g. URI or URL, sprite or original
      format). See 'Docs.Notes' for more. The back-end to this is now
      implemented (i.e. at the moment, save as URI or URL, save as original
      image format). Note that when saving background images, a leafname
      based on the original fetch URL is now offered rather than a generic
      'Background'.
      
      Internal URL scheme changed to be all lower case, so relativisation
      through URL_Fetcher still makes sense... :-/
      
      Holding down 'shift' when clicking on stop reverses the interpretation
      of the Controls file 'StopWebServe' entry.
      
      Fixed row / column count for exporting tables as text; fixed a few
      bits and pieces of internal URL scheme stuff which got broken when
      HTMLLib started using URL_Fetcher's relativisation.

      Fixed some glitches in the modified status bar code (e.g. status inference wasn't working properly).
      
      Shift+Toggle size always opened to not obscure the icon bar. If CMOS is
      set to always show the icon bar, then Shift+Toggle size is meant to
      reverse sense and open to absolute full size. It now does this.
      
      !Run[D] files now require URL 0.22, HTTP 0.64, FTP 0.22, Gopher 0.08
      and File 0.32.
      
      Minor overhaul of 'Docs.Notes' (with 'Docs.User' similarly updated) to
      include a few new bits and pieces.
      
      Timeout values of 0 now mean 'forever'. Plug-in status messages now have
      their own timeout setting. New Messages token 'Actv' for extra info when
      a status message times out and the status line drops to 'Viewing' or
      'Ready' when there is still a Busy state registered by the Plug-in.
      
      Small Fetch windows don't become visible briefly for Plug-in fetches
      when the fetch is complete (for SeeFetches:no, where these windows
      should be hidden all the time).
      
      WebServe may be controlled through the Browse front-end via.
      Wimp_MAppControl reason code 4 (Wimp_MAppControl_Configure). Note the
      renaming internally of 'WebServ' or 'WebServe' has been changed to
      'Proxy' (with lower case equivalents where relevant); proxy name
      and starting details come from the Messages file 'ProxyName' and
      'ProxyComm' tokens. More in 'Docs.Notes'.
      
      Res files updated for image history and PRE/TT font aspect ratio
      choices. 'Don't expire' labels changed to 'Expire' (oops, didn't
      notice the change in the development Browse's Res file when I
      updated all of the others until now...).
      
      When printing, Wimp_PlotIcon appears to ignore R4 and R5, plots
      'somewhere' on the page, and tries to get the sprite from the global
      pool. This latter part normally causes an error to be raised; though
      on my machine I just get a corrupted error message. The Desktop font
      gets lost at this point too. All have yet to be fixed; as an
      interim work around, Wimp_PlotIcon objects are never drawn at all
      if the global 'printing' flag is set.

      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      Message_PlugIn_Busy. Plug-in code more robust when given invalid
      browser instance handles by the plug-in.
      
      Line spacing is now calculated on the basis of the normal style base serif
      font, with all other fonts being forced into that line height. This does
      mean that an unusually tall (say) sans serif font may get clipped. It
      appears to be the only way to get around wildly different baseline
      depths returned from the font metrics - you can't work out line spacing
      based on each different font style; the line spacing will vary.
      
      Table heighting (as opposed to widthing...) improved considerably; rowspan
      can no longer cause very tall cells in odd places. Having trouble getting
      rid of the single pixel breaks between vertically adjacent cells, though
      I've not tried too hard. Widthing, though, seems fairly badly broken at
      present... :-/
      
      Set/clear of page_is_text flag made more robust (it looked as though there
      was the potential for this to get stuck in a set state, though I've never
      see the front-end behave in a manner which indicates this is the case).
      The reformatter will now decrease leading if this flag is set (plain text
      pages look daft with a line spacing that is OK for 'rich' text pages).
      No reformatting is done if the page width changes by dragging on the
      resize icon, though toggle size / full screen will still reformat even
      if the contents are only text (browser needs to sort out various width
      flags at this point).
      
      Cut down on excessive redrawing when reformatting due to a change in
      window dimensions is not done. If display_width hasn't changed, then no
      redraw is needed. If this causes redraw problems, then whatever is
      changing display_width needs investigating. It shouldn't be kludged
      (basically) by forcing a redraw instead of a reformat.
      
      TT/PRE/etc. text can now have a non-100% aspect ratio. 80-90% looks
      best (ArcWeb, for example, uses 86%). New option 'TTAspect' in
      the Choices files.
      
      Debug builds link to a non-debug Unicode library now; stops stderr
      being dumped to the bottom left of the screen if you've not redirected
      it in the Run file.
      
      RISC OS 3.1 seems to need more initial WimpSlot than later OS versions.
      The 64 deep nested table set gives a 'No stack for trap handler' error
      (which it really means in this case!) without 800K, even though 3.71
      is happy with just 640K. So, the !Run file checks if Boot$OSVersion
      is exactly 300, 310 or 311, and sets the WimpSlot accordingly.
      
      !Run[D] files now require latest fetcher module versions (URL 0.21,
      File 0.31, HTTP 0.58).

      Adjust-click on forwards/backwards buttons did not work in the intermediate
      build, and now does.
      
      Adjust-click on form submission buttons where the submit method is POST
      will now work correctly, as the new view inherits the extradata block
      of the old. Failure of this is signalled through
      make_no_fetch_memory_error, code 16 (see updated Errors file in Docs).
      Note the name change of extradata in this context; more details below.
      
      The passing of forms POST data and extra headers for sending in an
      HTTP request via. the URL module was all done through pointers into
      flex blocks, and was therefore very unsafe. All relevant functions now
      use pointers to pointers to the data.
      
      To remove confusion on the umpteen uses of the word 'extradata', the field
      in browser_data has been renamed to 'post_data'. The 'extradata' parameters
      used within FetchPage.c were all disconnected from the extra header info /
      form POST data stuff that extradata is usually associated with, and have
      thus also been renamed, in this case to 'appnddata' (Append Data).
      
      As well as X-NoProxy, the browser sends the 'proper' HTTP headers
      Pragma:no-cache and Cache-Control:no-cache.
      
      A redirection from a POST request was not handled correctly; despite
      what HTTP specs say, you're supposed to use GET for the new URL. The
      browser was, but when it chopped off the redundant header data in the
      request didn't terminate it and left Content-Type in anyway...! Fixed.
      
      Ctrl+Tab implemented - URL completion. Comes from the hotlist URLs,
      hotlist titles, history hosts, paths, full URLs and lastly titles.
      See code comments for more (history_find_match, hotlist_find_match).
      
      TableSupport option added to Choices; it is read, can be set by the
      front-end, but doesn't actually do anything else yet.
      
      Reversed Choices' semantics on 'don't expire by...' for History. Added
      'needs_redraw' flag to choices_get_contents so that, for example, if the
      table border types change, browsers get redrawn.

      This is an intermediate check-in to allow work on Choices for the new table options and History choices as detailed below. Res files are not up to date except where indicated and there are several known bugs that will be fixed before the 'final' v1.27 is created. Any work on resources should only be done for the testbed !Browse.
      
      Client side image maps implemented. There is code to draw highlighted
      borders in CSIM.c, but this is not wired in yet; other than that,
      the implementation is functionally complete. As part of this, centralised
      the fetching of a targetted URL taking into account user request of a
      new view and full screen mode, in fetchpage_fetch_targetted. The forms
      library now uses this too, so form buttons respond to both adjust-clicks
      and TARGET attributes.
      
      Fixed APPLET handling where '.class' isn't present in the CODE attribute.
      
      Paragraphs squashed at the top of cells/pages - browser would insert white
      space before.
      
      Now append a ' ' to the end of History menu items to prevent the Wimp
      thinking the end of entries represents a keyboard shortcut (e.g. 'Home').
      
      Netscape's handling of 'meta http-equiv="refresh"' is to start counting
      when the fetch has completed and everything else has died down. The browser
      will now not start counting until the animation handler is deregistered
      (so formatting is complete) to show similar behaviour (note that this
      checks the main handler, not the 'idle but returning to first frame'
      drift handler).
      
      URLs from requests for fetches by Plug-Ins are now relativised.
      
      Page width change tolerance prior to reformat upped from 16 to 32 OS
      units. Hoping to provoke a loosely connected bug with this change!
      
      TableOuter, TableInner and SeeFetches choices added to all Choices
      files, with appropriate loading and saving code in Main.c and Save.c.
      AuthorFTP and AuthorFSh messages added for FTP authentication, and
      dialogue handling code (the component in FetchHTML.c) updated to
      recognise an FTP fetch and alter the dialogue presentation
      appropriately.
      
      All Messages file version numbers taken up to 1.27 (20 Nov 1997).
      
      Following a UseNet suggestion, Ctrl+Toggle Size will increase the window
      size to fill the screen vertically only; horizontal size/positioning is
      not changed.
      
      Shift+Tab in the URL writable will cycle through alternative fetcher
      protocols (from both the Controls file and checking the fetcher modules
      are actually present).
      
      Hotlist doesn't require '://' in URLs when loading HTML, just ':/' - so
      'file:/' URLs now will be reloaded correctly.
      
      History system rewritten completely. GHistSize and VHistSize options
      removed, and replaced by MaxSize and ExpiryAge. Now have global history
      menus with most recently visited items at the top, and local history
      menus which reflect the path that forward/back buttons would take.
      Browsers are robust to background expiry of the History though this is
      not implemented - date expiry and size checks are carried out on
      history_record only. This does mean that with two windows open one could
      have the history expired underneath it whilst another fetched, though;
      the code handles this and update toolbars (greying items) as necessary.
      It is possible to have the history limits so tight that even one entry
      will not fit and again the code copes with this, though values read
      from Choices are limit checked to ensure rather more useful results!
      
      Implemented 'Save' button in save dialogues. Remembers pathnames and just
      replaces the leaf now (hard coded exceptions for <Wimp$Scrap>... and
      <Wimp$ScrapDir>...) - it did before, but only if you'd typed the path
      in. Not many people did, given that you couldn't press Return or click on
      a Save button to use that path...
      
      In a similar vein, files of type Data or DOS will be checked for a '/xxx'
      type extension and the MimeMap module will be used to find a more meaningful
      filetype. If this can be handled, the file is loaded. This only works for
      files dragged to the browser - the behaviour with inline data in web pages
      will depend on the File module, and similarly, if File doesn't spot what is
      going on and claims that the object is data, the browser will just open a
      save dialogue for it.
      
      !RunD files taken up to 3072K WimpSlot.
      
      Hotlist's saved HTML page title wasn't internationalised - is now. This
      opened up a significant can of worms; on file write error, the file would
      never be closed, and if a caller of the save or load functions passed
      in a filename held in the global Messages lookup buffer then subsequent
      lookups in the callees would corrupt that filename. All sorted out now.
      
      Local (not very useful) or global (useful) histories can be saved as HTML,
      which opens up the possibility of sending your history to the hotlist
      by saving to it. Local and global histories can also be emptied, though
      this is probably not a feature that current release Desktop browsers need.
      Inheritance of local history and certain UI features is now done more or
      less for all cases where one browser window spawns another, too.
      
      Vertical alignment on images is rather less ropey than it was (e.g.
      ALIGN=TOP stands half a chance of working) but is still far from perfect.
      This was part of fixing a nasty little bug in Redraw.c's setting of
      an image position via. image_set_token_image_position, which was making
      (amongst possibly many other things) client side image maps fail.
      Image update where images had large borders was affected by a similar
      problem too (more cans with more worms...).
      
      Fixed image background filler functions; two problems. When cross
      referenced images were replaced by base images in a browser because the
      original owner was closing down, the original owner browser would stay
      registered with ImageLib. Fixed; secondly, when images were deleted from
      the image array causing those above to be renumbered, images registered
      with ImageLib did not have their numbers updated (this was the one that
      lead to the visible drop out of background images with PNGs on the Acorn
      Internet home page when there were two views of the page and the first
      was closed). This is now also sorted out.

      StrongHelp manual generator now tries to work out the number of lines in
      the table on the root page more intelligently.
      
      Plug-in support extended to handle Shockwave. Quite a lot of underlying
      work for this, including a pseudo cache system for temporary files.
      
      Bug in redraw routines: they plotted background images within table
      cells, when nothing should have been drawn. Oops. When background images
      in cells are properly supported, this can get sorted out.
      
      Tweaked vertical plot position of HRs (up to 4 OS units too high before due
      to rounding).
      
      Various Res file bits and pieces, Ursula build taken up to v1.26 beta

      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      Sorted out Res files, including fixing position of 'bytes' label in one of the Choices dialogues (I'd missed it out of a selection when everything else got moved down a bit). Unfaded Enc_Chinese menu entries, made sure text labels were wide enough for system font, changed 'Apply' on Choices dialogue to 'Set', and added ^K to hotlist keyboard shortcut lists.
      
      Print Setup (i.e. Print dialogue) buttons all set to 'local', so the
      stupid Toolbox doesn't close the dialogue and lose the caret before I
      can see if it was in there to start with...
      
      256 colour hotlist sprites taken back to standard 16 colour versions,
      since there's a significant speed penalty on slower machines. The
      testbed browser still has the 256 colour versions so the designs aren't
      completely lost.
      
      Changed access settings to exported builds to wr/r - lr/r was really getting
      on my nerves whenever I wanted to try something temporary out.
      
      View source, save source and print handlers would all try to work if
      there was no source to act on - despite the fact that toolbar buttons
      would be greyed out form them. This is fixed.
      
      The Navigate menu has components greyed to match the toolbar state,
      when opened. It isn't kept up to date dynamically, though this shouldn't
      really be a problem (reopen the submenu...). As part of this, finally
      sorted out conditions for the Stop button to be greyed, or the
      GoTo/Go/Stop tristate to be at 'Stop' versus 'GoTo'.
      
      Deferred reformatting is now disabled for external image fetches.
      
      Browser-local client pull flag removed; hitting the Stop button simply
      cancels any null handlers working for it. That way, client pull switches
      back on in passing at the next fetch (it was never really switched off).
      So to stop client pull, hit the stop button at any point.
      
      Done CELLPADDING attribute; cellpadding field in reformat_cell (Global.h)
      is redundant since the table token is accessible from there, and so it has
      been removed. CELLSPACING support also added.

      Now handles PARAM tags. Sorted out Plug-In bug that was related to Java setting a 0 by 0 graphics window before calling Wimp_Poll (fixed in Java).
      
      Implemented queue for Plug-Ins so multiple broadcasts aren't sent for
      several Objects in one data chunk.
      
      Added Docs directory with some documentation in it. More things to keep
      checking for stylistic consistency, horray ;-)
      
      Corrected !Run[D] for Ursula build to need AcornURI but not TaskModule
      (URI handler needed for !Mail to pick up mailto: links).
      
      Added display_height field to browser_data, analogous to display_width,
      to cope with % sized objects by width and height (see how HRs are
      handled in Redraw.c for an example of how it was always fairly easy
      with width, but not height until this addition). Though you do have
      to reload to get a new size; reformat isn't enough. Must see to this
      some time...
      
      Fixed bug where basic typefaces were claimed *before* the Choices file
      had been read. For unusual Choices settings, this could create some
      'interesting' problems now and again. This was part of narrower scope
      work in the Choices code to allow font changing without leaking font
      handles (now done; fm_shutdown only ditches fonts, it keeps internal
      structures - must then call  fm_lose_fonts for all browsers to get the
      bitfields up to date, then rewrite the typeface definitions and reclaim
      basic fonts). Noticed that fm_claim_basic_typefaces would claim multiple
      instances of the same font if there were several cases of the same font
      mapped to different typeface styles - fixed.
      
      Implemented PlugInControl settings, but not SupportObject (fully).

      More reformatter code bugs fixed; this one regarding width of items. Any kerned string was overestimated (causing redraw bugs and caret position problems in forms, apart from other minor bits elsewhere) and the default size of a writable icon wasn't especially clever.
      
      Crude Plug-In support; just about manages Java, but can't fetch on
      behalf of Plug-In (for example). Had to change the default file access
      URL construction to be 'file:/' instead of 'file://', or local file
      fetches that reference Java applets won't work. This is in its very
      early stages, and is being checked in mostly so that various Choices
      issues can be worked on.

      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      Now working on source merged with Kevin Bracey's internationalisation support. UNIFONT is undefined in the Make File for now. All Res and
      
      Choices files updated appropriately.
      
      Having sorted out the old Choices and Messages to form Choices, Controls
      and Messages, this build has had the same cleaning up done internally.
      This includes greater consistency in naming schemes and the removal of
      the inconsitent choices items - e.g. Choices file entries saying 'delay
      images' and 'plain backgrounds' where internally all the flags say 'show
      images' and 'show backgrounds'. ChoiceDefs.h and CtrlDefs.h added to
      clarify the meaning of some fields, though usage of these is not 100%
      in the source (there are cases where parameters are passed through to
      functions as ints, and those functions still check these against hard
      coded values rather than the #define stuff).
      
      Fetcher status return bits (connected, sent request, etc.) now reflected
      in status bar. Progress during fetchs to files are reported by %, where
      the size of the object is known. Exceeding 100% drops back to a byte
      counter, in case the estimated size was wrong. The progress counter
      may be updated after specific delays, rather than 'as often as possible',
      to reduce flicker (as requested by D.Brown some time ago).
      
      I've done a small rewrite of the fetch prioritisation scheme in FetchPage.c;
      how well this performs in general use across different processor speeds
      remains to be tested, but certainly it has some advantages. For each small
      fetch window before the rewrite, a 4cs tight loop was entered - this gave a
      noticable and substantial drain to the Desktop performance if more than one
      was opened. Now, several can be up at once with little hit. The actual file
      fetch is on half the priority it was before, with all others taken back
      just a bit - e.g. from 20cs per poll to 15cs per poll for flat out
      reformatting. You don't seem to lose much time on the format in practice,
      and the Desktop feels quite a bit lighter at the same time. There's the
      potential for smoother frameset loading in this scheme, too.
      
      When Shift+Clicking on a link meant you still fetched inside the main
      browser window, several fetches could occur in a frameset - one per frame.
      However, now that you can only do this by clicking on a link that leads to
      non-displayable data - or by turning off the small fetch windows by
      setting UseSmall to 'no' in Choices - a bug where fetchpage_preprocessed
      would stop such fetches as new ones were started was revealed.
      The API to frames_abort_fetching has now been extended to include a
      'stop file spooling too' flag, allowing a fix to be made by having
      fetchpage_preprocess's calls not set this (and it doesn't check the
      savelink flag is unset before proceeding, since frames_abort_fetching
      does that implicitly now).
      
      Had left the RAM transfer buffer at 16 bytes (from testing) accidentally...
      Oops. Upped it to 4K. In addition, when loading data by RAM transfer,
      the browser didn't notice if a RAMFetch bounced during the transfer. It
      would be treated as a 'first' RAMFetch bounce, basically, and try to go to
      file transfer - oops. Fixed.

      Encoding support added: if UNIFONT is defined then the browser will attempt to use the system font to render Unicode characters (new
      
      International module required). If not defined, the browser will just
      handle Acorn Latin-1 characters, but HTMLLib will convert other encodings
      into Latin-1. Must keep the UNIFONT define in sync with HTMLLib (if
      defined HTMLLib outputs UTF-8, otherwise Acorn Latin-1).
      
      Still needed:
      
      Reverse encoding (converting form input etc back into the server's

      Image deletion routines rewritten; nasty animated GIF bug now gone
      (it kept trying to update the cross-referenced image in the browser that
      no longer existed, and I've no idea how animated GIFs ever managed to *not*
      blow up if a cross referencing browser was shut down; and I've tested
      this...). There are now as many image structures as there are total images
      in the visible browsers, and no more; cross referenced images in the
      to-be-deleted browser have their ownership moved to the cross
      referencer before the cross referencee is wiped, with any required fetches
      being transferred with them.
      
      Reformatter sped up a bit by getting rid of strlen on the main text field
      of tokens in all places bar one, where it is called extremely rarely. This
      means direct app-to-app transfer of, say, a 359K text file to the browser
      won't run like a drain as it tries to do strlen on a 359K string over and
      over again! Most of the time the performance benefits won't really be
      noticable, but on the above text file, formatting time went down from
      290 seconds before the change to just under 7 seconds, a 41 fold speed
      increase or thereabouts (SA110 228MHz).
      
      MakeFile changed to force function name compilation on for debug builds
      (-fn in the DD...FLAGS); useful for certain functions such as
      register_null_handler, which can now output the name of the function
      being registered.
      
      ...Which helped show up some nasties in the animation handler and animation
      drift handler registration/deregistration process, which have been fixed
      (callers of fetchpage_release_nulls were unaware that the drift handler
      could be installed, and fragments of old code checking choices.anim_drift
      had a value other than 1 or 0 were still hanging around - bit tricky for
      a single bit item).
      
      Added support for VALIGN in table cells. Spotted a bug or two in the
      'what token is the pointer over' routines as a result, and fixed them - the
      worst was in browser_line_at_y, which checked the y coordinate was below
      the given one [the mouse], but didn't check the line height to see if the
      given y coordinate was *within* the line, rather than just above it. Never
      used to matter pre-tables, but a definite concern once multiple line
      arrays can exist on one page.

      Got the deferred reformatter working properly. It doesn't do that 'OK, the page is fetched and reformatted, but just to annoy you, I'm going to wait 5 seconds and then suddenly reformat the whole thing again' trick anymore. The fetcher was calling the reformatter in a delayed form even when the reformatter was already running, so it would carry on past the reformat point or from below what had become and invalidated line, and some time later, get back to the delayed reformat. Now, reformatting is only delayed by the fetcher when the reformatter is not running. In practice this means body text reformats as it fetches, but large tables will show delayed reformatting - which was exactly the intended behaviour of the feature when it was originally thought of.
      
      fetch_token_data_address removed; it was only needed in two places,
      both of which already knew when to read tp->text and when to ignore
      it. Its functionality is duplicated in an 'if' involving reformat_istext,
      anyway.
      
      !Run[D] files taken back to requiring HTTP 0.33, since 0.36 introduces
      many weird and wonderful problems.
      
      Typo in Messages files, 'All current images (sic.) fetches finished' -
      'images' is now 'image'.
      
      Shift+Click saving - you could save to an application. No problem. But
      the equivalent (just clicking on a link that led to an unknown datatype
      and getting the save dialogue that way) didn't work. It does now.
      Another problem was saving to an application that didn't support the
      datatype - oops, the dialogue would close but the fetch would sit there
      waiting to be told where to save. It doesn't close now (as expected).
      
      NB, doing several simultaneous fetches to a text editor may have problems
      as the editors are too clever for their own good. Despite receiving
      DataLoad messages for <Wimp$Scrap> for files of different types, sizes
      and datestamps, the editors can decide it's still the same file and:
      
      Zap      - Hats off, it gets it right, almost. You do get warned 'Multiple
                 copies - one on disc is newer' as everything after the first
                 text loads, but they do load, and in separate windows.
      StrongED - Does not load the subsequent files, so the browser gives 'Data
                 transfer failed' errors and opens up Scrap. Turning off 'Don't
                 load same file twice' fixes it - each file is loaded in a new
                 window with no warnings. At least in the first case, you don't
                 lose data, since the files are kept in Scrap.
      Edit     - Each time it loads the file, it *replaces* the other one in
                 memory, using the same window for each. This is the worst
                 behaviour as it isn't configurable (well, I don't know of a way
                 to change it...) and results in data loss as successive texts
                 get trounced by the new data.
      
      I can't see how I can fix this in the browser as it's basically silly
      behaviour on behalf of the editors. Other applications which don't try
      to work out if it's a new file or not are fine!
      
      When conducting image fetches, proxying is allowed unless reloading.
      When conducting page fetches, proxying was never allowed - so web cache
      stuff would have been, er, interesting. It now sets X-NoProxy: in the
      request header when reloading, but otherwise this is not included.
      
      AnimSpeed is, at last, independent of browser poll speed. They used to
      be tied together. Guess how the animation code used to work ;-)
      
      'Can't handle this datatype' - deprecated now that save dialogues can be
      popped up. The 'can't save objects in full screen mode' error would never
      be shown due to a bug, anyway; this now replaces 'can't handle', which
      has been removed from all Messages files.
      
      RefoWait, RefoHang and RefoTime moved from Controls back to Choices.
      
      Trying to get rid of strlen in the reformatter - it can get very slow
      (e.g. strlen of 8K chunks of text, or if a 330K text file is transferred
      from a text editor straight to the browser, strlen of a 330K string...).
      There will be unfinished bits of code in the reformatter that may seem
      unnecessary - they've just not been plugged in yet (since they don't
      actually work). Don't remove them!

      As warned in the last log, pretty much all event codes and component IDs have now changed along with many of the names, to provide a consistent name and numberspace for events and components. This also minimises number clashes (e.g. as was, the Save File origin when opened from a
      
      Hotlist menu with an already-used component ID). To get full details on
      this, please carefully read through TBEvents.h.
      
      Res files, Sprites files and Messages files have been updated again both
      due to the above, and routine additions (e.g. message support for a few
      Hotlist bits and pieces). !Run[D] files updated for FTP 0.11 and
      HTTP 0.36.
      
      In the Makefile, the Customer objects list was missing Save - must have
      moved something when I should've copied it, when adding in SaveFile or
      SaveObject in all probability. Now fixed. Couple of other bits and bobs
      fixed in the build environment (e.g. stuff saying !Argo instead of
      !Customer). Oh, and I've altered the MakeFile copy options again to the
      best compromise I can come up with. Newer is turned on for everything
      except !Run[D] and !RunImage, since both of those change between debug
      builds - otherwise if you'd built debug and non-debug versions, it was
      not possible to switch between them - one version would have the newer
      timestamp and thus never get overwritten.
      
      The default hotlist has had a few items added - that'll be about the end
      of it, I think; there's more than enough stuff in there now.
      
      Saving of the hotlist from the document menu and of URI files,
      directories and selections from the hotlist menu tree is now implemented
      - this new save system rocks... Oh, and you can save all images and
      backgrounds as sprites.
      
      Saving of items with Shift+Click to other applications directly now
      works, and is robust. Unique Scrap filenames are used, with data load
      bounces (e.g. if some pra - er, person quits the app they're sending
      to) working correctly - that is, give an error, keep the file, rename
      it to something safe, and open the directory it lies in. As opposed
      to normal app-to-app bounces, where the scrap file is deleted (see
      PRM 3-254). This means you can now look at README files in FTP
      sites, say, without using a disc intermediate. Or you can send pictures
      straight to ChangeFSI, fetch HTML links into editors, and so-on, and
      so-on - it's all very funky. Known problems include the ambiguous
      'invalid component ID' instead of 'file open' for *normal* (straight to
      disc) shift+click saves, and I think I'll introduce a unique name
      guarantee of some sort to stop 'file open' in the first place. Odd
      that the really tricky part (app-to-app) should be least likely to
      suffer from this!

      Created Protocols source file and moved a lot of message handling from... · f3e8124f
      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      Created Protocols source file and moved a lot of message handling from handle_messages - the latter now serves as a high level distributor to lower level functions in Protocols. Incidentally, URL files (as used by the ANT suite) can be loaded by dragging to the browser in the same way as URI files - Not A Lot Of People Know That, etc.
      
      Merged new hotlist display type Res file to existing resources, added
      support for DataSave message so items can be dragged from the hotlist
      to a specific window (RAM transfer for URI and URL files; ScrapFile for
      HTML and Text but deleted afterwards and there are appropriate guards
      to stop Reload just saying 'not found'; images run through ScrapFile and
      there is no choice but to leave them there and do a conventional fetch).
      
      All !RunD files now give a WimpSlot of 2304K. Some small changes to
      the Argo and Ursula build Res files to make the menu trees more sensible.
      Controls files now take 'file:/' instead of 'file://' in Protocols
      section. Definitions at top of URLutils.c *not* altered, as then you
      end up with invalid URLs - so it will accept 'file:/', but always generate
      'file://'. This is because some browsers exports 'file:/'. Sigh.
      
      make_no_[..._]memory_error functions now return a _kernel_oserror * rather
      than void. It's always &erb returned, but it enables users to use a more
      elegant 'return make_no_memory_error(1);', say, rather than something
      like 'make_no_memory_error(1); return &erb;'. I obviously should've written
      it like that at the outset, but never mind. All callers have been
      appropriately updated.
      
      The urlutils_leafname_from_url function now replaces illegal characters
      (A7000 Welcome Guide p54...) in the leaf with legal alternatives.
      
      Internal URL scheme is now a bit cleaner, with everything properly defined
      in URLutils.h. All references to http:, file: and ftp:, with or without
      a following '//' use the definitions in here now.
      
      More tidying and some reorganising of Hotlist source. Auto-open delay is
      now a Choices item. Some dependencies on statics removed (e.g. the
      counting functions don't accumulate into the global item_number now).
      The redraw functions used Wimp_TextOp - oops, so this has been amended
      to use whatever is supported on your Wimp. This is now in a new function
      (utils_text_width()), which the History menu routines also use (there was
      a bug in the width routine there anyway, which is therefore fixed in
      passing). Several other routines used Wimp_TextOp directly too, and
      they have been altered to use the new function as well.
      
      In hotlist code, one of the larger changes is in the API to hotlist_draw_r()
      (formerly _hotlist_draw()) which now takes item widths and heights as
      parameters - discovering these is quite slow, so doing it every time the
      function calls itself recursively is a little less efficient than
      passing the values in from elsewhere. Note that underscore prefixed
      functions are being slowly renamed to _r suffixed functions, to match
      the convention established by Tony Cheal with is table routines. This
      makes it much more obvious when something is recursive, as the same
      naming convention is used in every browser source file.
      
      Finally, note that I intend to ditch SaveDBox and use an alternate window
      with manual control of the messaging in Protocols.c. This will allow
      various improvements which at present the SaveDBox operational methods
      preclude. I'm going to have to do at least an alternate Window object for
      the SaveDBox module to use soon in any case. Getting rid of SaveDBox will
      help reduce, if only slightly, demands on the RMA.

      Very long log entry alert - but hey, beats 'Bug fixed' (sorry, Richard) ;-) · 532155bd
      Andrew Hodgkinson authored
      Open URL implementation more or less complete, though may undergo UI
      revision at a later date to allow named frames to be targetted. Hope to use
      the ideas in this code as the foundation for other general dialogues.
      
      In token stream dump for TRACE builds, table head items were not indented
      as far as they should have been - this is fixed; and manual toolbar redraw
      routines have been removed. They never worked, were commented out, and
      would never be used in that form anyway.
      
      DragBox source added, but it isn't at all complete and won't work - this is
      an 'in spare time' thing. We need custom drag boxes constrained to windows
      for the hotlist, and unconstrained for frame border resizing... Hey ho.
      
      Ancestor window extents match visible areas if there are frames (no more
      scrolling framesets...!). Frame resizing works whilst new documents fetch
      without pulling the extent down now. However, frame horizontal extents
      never shrink until a reload which is nasty, and this is all due for a
      rewrite. Frames border redrawing routine moved out of Redraw.c and into
      Frames.c. Bug regarding the mouse rectangle and frame border widths
      (rectangle was too large, so you could squash the edges) for edge-drag
      frame resizes fixed.
      
      Window width change reformat tolerance fixed; you could creep the window
      width down or up forever without any reformat, and centred objects would
      move but not be redrawn (thereby giving rise to subsequent redraw errors).
      
      Filetype on objects saved through Shift+Click correct. Save Source dialogue
      recognises if that source is plain text, rather than assuming HTML. A
      browser that fetches a file remembers the old store size it had before the
      save, so even though the data is now ditched, it reports the same amount of
      data fetched afterwards (looked awful when this could, for example,
      suddenly say '0' after a file save). Progress indicator is now fully aware
      of one or many file saves inside a frameset and reports the number of
      saves, a colon, and the cumulative saved data count, instead of reporting
      the sum total of fetched data in all frames, including non-file save stuff
      (note that for just 1 save, '1:' is not shown as a special case for the
      most common condition). A bug related to this, where you could in fact only
      do one fetch per frame*set*, has been corrected (only one fetch allowed per
      frame still, this is unlikely to ever change).
      
      Hotlist support added (D.Brown's source), with various bits of integration
      and modification still in progress there. Note additions to the Messages
      files. On the subject of Messages, the whole mucky business about what
      goes in Messages or Choices (and a few bugs where lookup_choice was used
      instead of lookup_token or vice versa) has been sorted out. Messages
      contains, more or less, just that. Choices contains user configurable
      stuff which generally can't mess things up too badly. A new file, Controls,
      is a Messages file holding the non-user configurable choices, which can
      generally make things go badly wrong if misused. A lot of these are tied
      to the Res file. StrongED users can get these to automatically fold out
      the various sections (EMail me for details). Sorry, but at the time of
      writing, Zap doesn't do folding... =8*P
      
      Two bugs with images. Asking for images to be shown in browser B when
      browser A uses the same ones and was loaded first didn't work correctly,
      and now does (a bit weird - browser A does the fetch and browser B does the
      display...). Second one occurred when the background image was also used on
      the page as a foreground image. This has been fixed by flagging background
      images in the image_info structure, and checking this before cross
      referencing. This bit also allowed the image_restart_fetches API to be
      extended, so that just background or foreground images may be fetched if
      they weren't already and the user asked the browser to show them. Before,
      the whole lot had to be fetched together (so turning on 'display
      backgrounds' will now kick off an image fetch if required, you don't
      need to reload the page anymore).
      
      Makefile copy options tweaked to be 'newer' (so if you're testing with some
      temporary Choices file or something, it won't write over it at the end of
      every export), and REMOTE_HOTLIST flag added for Customer builds - means
      the Hotlist.c functions aren't needed; the old, hotlist-by-file method is
      used. Added support for Customer build (see later), though there were very
      few additions needed in practice.
      
      Table printing fixed - in many ways it wasn't broken, it was image printing
      causing the oddities ever since the global image pool was introduced (this
      is, again, fixed). The 'reformat to fit page' option didn't work as coded
      any more; tables store cell addresses in the HStreams, so you can't then do
      a background reformat in a different browser. Hence, it now has to reformat
      to the page width, print, then put the page back again, all in the actual
      displayed browser. This doesn't feel as slow in use as it perhaps should,
      considering what is going on... Note that a line of a defined fraction (see
      Print.h) of page height will now split over page boundaries, so tall images
      or tall tables don't cause problems now (aside from the obvious problem of
      having the line split over a page at all!). There was a bug in the routine
      to print from a given start point until 'n' pages had been filled, in that
      it always filled 'n + 1' - now fixed. Finally, as part of the printing
      tweaks, a new dialogue exists - PrintStyle - with a similarly named source
      file added to deal with it.
      
      Global history auto save / load done, but only to the Choices file path -
      the whole browser is still strictly single user at present, with all the
      extra work for a multiuser Customer environment yet to be done. This has
      shown up a global history corruption problem which I haven't fixed yet.
      
      Rationalising TBEvents.h - things are migrating out of it, and into more
      appropriate sources (e.g. definitions relating to the Open URL dialogue are
      going into OpenURL.h, etc.). Event codes were at one stage deliberately
      diverged in numberspace from the component IDs of typical gadgets raising
      the events, to avoid anyone getting confused and thinking the IDs and event
      codes must match. However, this is in fact unlikely and it is much easier
      to remember the fewer numbers that result from tying the two together where
      possible. This has resulted in changes to event codes raised in the
      following objects of all Res files: Authorise, Find, OpenURL, and
      PrintStyle.
      
      And finally - !Run[D] files for all variants updated to require the latest
      toolbox and fetcher modules. All Res files updated for hotlists etc. and
      sprites files updated appropriately. All Messages, Choices and Controls
      files brought in sync., and an Customer build has been added (based on the
      Desktop build binary with different resources).
      
      That's all for now...

      Quite a few general source changes throughout many files to sort out swapped toolbars. There will be more work on this shortly. svcprint.c has been modified to allow it to output to a file in PipeFS, so TML-less machines can still use the standard browser debug routines (albeit in a less than elegant fashion). Comments in that source file give more details. Plus a few more bug fixes.

      (adding up to a greater whole), which include removal of the dastardly
      'invalid image number' errors that trace builds would raise from time to
      time. Frame highlights are now better controlled (releaseably so).
      Generally, this build represents the first genuinely promising version
      of the browser for quite some time, despite the known library problems
      with comment handling etc.
