1 Top priority would be the mouse. We need to get cut&paste working. 2 (Including extend beyond the visible screen. I believe I'm sending 3 the correct mouse events for that, but I haven't tested it.) 4 5 =-=-=-= 6 Find a tool to convert the reference doc to html, and just point a 7 browser at it for the help screen. Have "novice", "fast lookup" 8 and an "everything" version. 9 10 =-=-=-= 11 Disassociate scrollbar actions from the cursor, i.e. when you 12 scroll the screen moves but the cursor doesn't. 13 14 >> However, it seems to me that the cursor should disappear from 15 >> the screen as soon as it's no longer positioned on a line that's 16 >> on the screen.

Try ^H in the colon line and see what happens. 33 34 =-=-=-= 35 Implement a "word search" button for the search dialog -- it's not 36 trivial, the ex/ex_subst.c/re_compile() routine is going to have to 37 allocate memory for the pattern which isn't going to make it happy. 38 39 =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= 40 /* TODO List: 41 * scrollbars Need protocol messages that tell us what to display 42 * in the scrollbars. Suggestion: 43 * scrollbar( bottom, lines, home ) 44 * bottom is $ 45 * lines is lines shown in the window 46 * (takes wrap into account) 47 * home is the line number ot the top visible line 48 * 49 * On the way back send scroll( top ) 50 * 51 * User should be able to enable/disable bar display 52 * 53 * <yuch!> horizontal scrollbar 54 * 55 * expose_func 56 * insert/delete When we have a partially obscured window, we only 57 * refresh a single line after scrolling.

Not 76 * needed until split is implemented. 77 * 78 * arrow keys need to define a protocol.
