freebsd kernel with SKQ

retrieving stored data (for the --menu, --calendar, --timebox, --checklist, and --radiolist widgets). When we (Ron McDowell and I) developed the first version of bsdconfig, it used temporary files to store responses from dialog(1). That hasn't been true for some very long time, so the need to always store the return status of dialog(1) and then call some function to clean-up is long-deprecated. The function that used to do the clean-up was f_dialog_menutag(). We really don't need f_dialog_menutag() for its originally designed purpose, as all dialog invocations (even when in a sub-shell) do not use temporary files anymore. However, we do need to keep f_dialog_menutag() around because it still fills the need of being able to abstract the procedure for fetching stored data provided by functions that display the aforementioned widgets. In re-designing f_dialog_menutag(), four important changes are made: 1. Rename f_dialog_menutag() to f_dialog_menutag_fetch() 2. Introduce the new first-argument of $var_to_set to reduce number of forks 3. Create a corresponding f_dialog_menutag_store() to abstract the storage 4. Offload the sanitization to a new function, f_dialog_data_sanitize() NOTE: That last one is important. Not all functions need to store their data for later fetching, meanwhile every invocation of dialog should be sanitized (as we learned early-on in the i18n-effort -- underlying libraries will spit warnings to stderr for bad values of $LANG and since dialog outputs its responses to stderr, we need to sanitize every response of these warnings). These changes greatly improve readbaility and also improve performance by reducing unnecessary forking. |

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory. This file was last revised on: $FreeBSD$ For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this directory (additional copyright information also exists for some sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for more information). The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the kernel, the kernel-modules and the contents of /etc. The ``world'' target should only be used in cases where the source tree has not changed from the currently running version. See: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/makeworld.html for more information, including setting make(1) variables. The ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets build and install the kernel and the modules (see below). Please see the top of the Makefile in this directory for more information on the standard build targets and compile-time flags. Building a kernel is a somewhat more involved process, documentation for which can be found at: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/kernelconfig.html And in the config(8) man page. Note: If you want to build and install the kernel with the ``buildkernel'' and ``installkernel'' targets, you might need to build world before. More information is available in the handbook. The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/<arch>/conf sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation kernel. The file NOTES contains entries and documentation for all possible devices, not just those commonly used. It is the successor of the ancient LINT file, but in contrast to LINT, it is not buildable as a kernel but a pure reference and documentation file.
