I'm getting the wrong sort of terminal. Why?
I vaguely remember doing something to the registry settings for the debugger
about a month ago but I can't remebber what. Since then I have not been
tripping it anyway. However I am now investigating a problem that does trip
the debugger. However it now comes up with an enormous terminal of some
sort with terrible font and bad agreement between font and cursor
positioning, so that important data disappears off the right of the screen
before wrapping. However in the old days it used to use an xterm. I'd like
to go back to that.
Did I do that or is it a result of the stuff going on with the debugger?
TIA
Bill
p.s. Merry Christmas to all.

That is a wineconsole, I think. Eric is still working on it.

A little of each, I think. Latest cvs might have some fixes but I
haven't tried it with the debugger on a wineconsole yet. If wine's
stdin/stdout/stderr are connected to an xterm, (if you run wine from an
xterm, FI) the debugger will use it, I think. If not, it will use a
wineconsole. To also capture traces to a file, I think
wine blah.exe 2>&1 | tee logfile
will still let the debugger use the xterm.

you can change the size of the font it doesn't suit you.
right click in
the
console window, then choose the default settings.. here, set up the font
you'd like. it'll be saved into the registry and used at next
wineconsole
invocation

Impressive.
It's a long time since I discovered a way to lock up the Linux box solidly
but that does the job nicely. :-(
When I right click on the window I get offered a menu including a
"defaults". When I select that I get a dialog with three groups of
controls; a cursor size, a history and a "conf" something. I see no
suggestion of font. Also the three buttons look to be poorly placed and do
not appear to be selectable. The only choice I appear to have is to remove
the dialog with the x in the top right, which is when the machine hangs.
(No mouse, no keyboard).
I think I'll just go with redirecting.

the dialog box should have three property sheets. the first
one if the
one
you see, the second one is font related
do you have similar issues with other dialog boxes ?

No, but I wouldn't worry about it if it is working on other people's.
(It looks like some sort of problem with the Tab sheets)

well, try at least the
patch I just sent, it may fix some issues (at
least
the memory hog issue and the potential X11 crash)
p.s. Happy New Year
Happy New Year to all wine
addicts too !!
