TODO List

[dvdhrm]

This is a list of items that are still to do. If you absolutely want to see some feature or if you have special notes for a feature on this list, please open a separate bug/feature-report for this single TODO-item only.

kmscon:

• print /etc/issue on setup (try to be 100% compatible to agetty)
• per output configuration
• add input/video device blacklist
• add proper .ini-style configuration file
• make --gpus=primary fall back to other GPUs in single-gpu mode
• reload configuration on SIGHUP
• Avoid running multiple --listen instances on the same seat
• Allow different processes to create cdev sessions
• dynamic keyboard modifier detection
• fail if a terminal cannot be started (at least in non-listen mode) so kmscon exits
• read systemd-localed on startup to retrieve x11-keyboard layout
• make systemd units use $(prefix) instead of hard-coding
• install systemd units
• background images
• draw underline in text renderers
• rework horrible shl_ring implementation

tsm:

• support for VT220-style mouse-protocol
• "fill" state of lines and buffers in tsm-screen
• don't redraw buffer on keypress but on state-change
• Partial redraws
• multi-width characters (wcwidth())
• Support Unicode combining marks
• add c++ 'extern "C"' markers
• configurable palette
• "no bold" option

wlterm:

• add support for window-title OSM and hook it up with wlt-toolkit
• implement "snap-from-maximize" so you can "unmaximize" windows my moving them far enough

uterm:

• make uterm_video_wake_up() remove displays on failure
• handle SYN_DROPPED input-events
• cursor support
• delay device-probe if device changes seats (due to race-condition)
• make udev optional
• keep devices for unknown seats around until the seat shows up and then assign them
• figure out dead-key support
• make VT-switching keys configurable

no background images

This is literally the only feature that prevents me from switching from fbterm to kmscon.
