win32: add FEATURE_UTF8_OUTPUT (enabled with unicode)

2023-08-03T17:57:53+00:00

Previously, the unicode build required console (out) codepage of UTF8 in order for unicode output to be printed correctly - e.g. at the shell command prompt or the output of `ls` for unicode file names. This is inconvenient, because by default it's not UTF8, and so unless the user invoked 'chcp 65001' - by default unicode output didn't work. This feature (which is now enabled for the unicode build) makes it print unicode output correctly regardless of the console CP, by using a new stream-conversion funcion from UTF8 chars to wchar_t, and writing those using WriteConsoleW. If the console CP happens to be UTF8 - this conversion is disabled. We could have instead changed the console CP to UTF8, but that's a slippery slope, and some old program which expect the default CP might get broken, so achieving the same result without touching the console CP is hopefully better.

win32: add script to create mingw unicode config

2023-07-22T06:40:36+00:00

Run ./scripts/mk_mingw64u_defconfig to create (or update) configs/mingw64u_defconfig from configs/mingw64_defconfig while enabling UTF8 manifest, UTF8 input, and unicode editing.

build system: allow monochrome 'make menuconfig'

2022-11-16T14:43:33+00:00

'make menuconfig' uses a hardcoded colour palette which may be difficult to read. Add support for the 'COLORS' environment variable. Setting this to '0' will cause 'make menuconfig' to be displayed in black and white. (GitHub issue #273)

win32: native make menuconfig: support search

2022-11-13T15:27:03+00:00

Previously, pressing slash to search at the menu aborted the menu program ('mconf'), because regexp is not available with native mingw. Now it works, but the search is of plain string rather than regexp.

build system: try harder to detect w64devkit

2022-11-12T08:56:52+00:00

We need to build the supplied PDCurses code when using w64devkit. This was being detected by checking for the W64DEVKIT environment variable, but this is only defined if w64devkit is started via w64devkit.exe. Set W64DEVKIT ourselves if HOSTCC targets the mingw32 platform. This won't be the case when cross-compiling on Linux but will for w64devkit and MSYS2 MINGW32/64. The build won't work properly for MSYS2 MINGW32/64, but it doesn't work when using the supplied curses library either. 'make menuconfig' requires the use of MSYS2 MSYS, and HOSTCC there targets msys.

build system: silence compiler warning

2022-11-08T08:47:44+00:00

The compiler in MSYS2 warns that strcasecmp(3) isn't declared in scripts/kconfig/lxdialog/checklist.c. Add the appropriate include to silence this warning.

win32: fix ESC/CR handling in 'make menuconfig'

2022-11-07T20:48:07+00:00

The WIN32 code in the 'mconf' build program should truncate the exit status from dialogs as if it were passed through WEXITSTATUS. The text dialog, for example, returns a status of -1 when ESC or CR is pressed. 'mconf' expects to see this as 255.

Provide PDCurses source for w64devkit build

2022-11-07T13:49:52+00:00

w64devkit doesn't ship a curses library. Provide a cut-down copy of PDCurses which is sufficient to allow 'make menuconfig' to work in w64devkit.
