Short: FIFO: use ACTION_STACK to abort packets
Author: Joerg.Hoehle@gmd.de (Jörg Höhle)
Uploader: Joerg.Hoehle@gmd.de
Type: util/misc
Requires: util/misc/fifolib38_2.lha,util/misc/fifolib38_3upd.lha
This is an interim (XMas) release distributed as a patch. You'll need
the 38.2 and 38.3 archives as well to get the complete source code.
Added ACTION_STACK support, but only for "aborting" ACTION_READ
and ACTION_WAIT_CHAR packets. Only dp_Arg2 == "\n" is honored.
Don't assume whatsoever about the order in which ACTION_STACK and
aborted packets are returned. CON: and KCON: differ, and I might
change the way it works in FIFO: as well.
Hint: R.Babel recommends a Write(fh,NULL,0); to CON: after an
ACTION_STACK to have it process ACTION_STACK (or packets will only be
"aborted" on the next keystroke). KCON: and FIFO: don't need that.
RemCLI shows fifo name and uses CONU_CHARMAP. Measured
half speed of CONU_STANDARD in a simple List+scroll test.
If you don't like the slowness, keep the previous RemCLI.
