* Stuff that needs to be done
- Look into scroll back glitches.
- Check if Cygwin install info is still correct.
- fix UTF-8 handling in input.
- fix packet patch prompt repetition bug.
- add chat server script 'log' option to show last 15 messages.
- look into getting rid of node->data
- garbage collection for deleted nodes.
- global flag to only show the same area.
- map color setting for hidden exits.
- look into Launchpad PPA
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
GENERAL STUFF:
- Add escape stripping #prompt option.
- Look into old school automatic packet patching.
- Add split pane scrollback
- Add a ARG_LEN / ARG_MAX setting.
- Add a #line skip option.
- Deal with escaping { } / ; in #script variables.
- Make tintin char setting by session instead of global.
- Add a way to append text to prompts.
- Proper manual for CHAT and MAP.
- Don't eat the path when using #path walk forward, allowing mixed usage of
forward and backward. Also add a #MAP START OF PATH event?
- crash on: #map exit {2}{command}{s;#map read floobity.map}
- add #line gag {lines} option or #lines {lines} {gag}.
- auto adjust max vnum size of mapper.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
READLINE:
- Debug end of screen input drawing.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
MAPPING STUFF:
- Create global exits, like recall, that can be used with #map run.
- Add something to indicate a non standard exit on the ASCII mapper.
- Display hidden exits differently.
- Synchronise drawn map with the link map.
- Add support to set hiddenexit colors.
- Better #map undo support.
- Add conditional if checks for room traversal.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DEBUGGING STUFF:
#SESSION 'mssp' DIED.
#THERE'S NO ACTIVE SESSION NOW.
#UNLINK ERROR in file session.c on line 351
DEBUG_STACK[000] = cleanup_session(0x8205430)
ERROR: close in cleanup (9: Bad file descriptor)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This is a list of improvements that are planned for a rainy day.
- Buffer safe strings.
- Fix up ipv6 support in chat.
- Look into packet defragmentation for chat.
- Color code compression, particularly useful with vt map drawing.
- link http://www.lauzet.com/argon on webpage
- See if it's possible to add better #path run support.
- Events for prompt lines.
- Lua scripting
- Look into using speech-dispatcher for text to speech.
- A way to set specific speedwalk delays for exits.
- MXP script http://tintin.sourceforge.net/board/viewtopic.php?t=1396
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Stuff that has been request but that I'm not entirely sure about
- http://tintin.sourceforge.net/board/posting.php?mode=reply&t=36
- Add a command to manipulate the input buffer.
- Add color compression to the strip_non_vt function.
- Keep last input visible with repeat enter enabled.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* This is a list of new features/improvements I'm not interest in.
- X window support: console is just fine.
- MXP support, will be tricky with tintin++ being a console client, a good
starting point might be libmxp provided by the creator of kmuddy.
http://www.kmuddy.org/libmxp/
Tintin will also need a html terminal, which isn't available yet.
- MSP support: I'm not aware of a good easy cross platform sound library. You
can use a command line sound mixer with the #system command.
- Plugins: Maybe sometime far in the future I'll add a plugin to add plugins.
