2) Ability to use the entire postscript character set in text objects
(not just the bottom 128!).
3.0 idraw is meant to support such characters via the Meta key;
however, there is a bug that prevents this from working consistently.
Below is the patch:
*** /interviews/dist/3.0-beta/iv/src/lib/Unidraw/manips.c Thu Apr 4 22:46:50 1991
--- src/lib/Unidraw/manips.c Tue Apr 30 12:03:29 1991
***************
*** 608,614 ****
case '\015': if (_multiline) InsertCharacter('\n'); break;
case '\033': manipulating = false; break;
default:
! if (!iscntrl(c)) {
InsertCharacter(c);
}
break;
--- 608,614 ----
case '\015': if (_multiline) InsertCharacter('\n'); break;
case '\033': manipulating = false; break;
default:
! if (!iscntrl(c & 0x7f)) {
InsertCharacter(c);
}
break;
7) Constrained move, like on the mac. I.e. when you hold down the
shift key during a move, you can move the object horizontally or
vertically, but not both. (Suggested by Gary Bradski I think.)
This works in 3.0 idraw exactly as you describe.
