[coLinux-users] new cocon

[Paolo M. <pao...@gm...>]

Hi colinux users,
after had trying for a while my SDL console, I have written a new
version using directly the win32 API.
This new version is very light.

Feature :

cut/paste :
************
copy : select moving with left mouse botton
paste : press the right mouse button
It works from/to other windows.

setfont :
************

You can change font runtime using the linux command :
Examples :

setfont lat4a-12
setfont lat4a-10
setfont lat4a-08
setfont

I'm interested to know if there are some problem.
Very interesting if there are some problems using cut/paste with
different keyboard layout (I think it should be all OK).

Where to download:
http://xoomer.alice.it/paolo.minazzi/console-gdi.zip

The archive contains all executable and driver.

Please use
colinux-daemon --remove-driver
to remove your current driver

Unzip my zip package, for example in C:\NEW

cd C:\NEW

Install the new driver
colinux-daemon --install-driver

Type go.bat to start

Important : edit configuration file "norm" to adjust your cobd0 (so it
can point to your harddisk image)

Thanks,
Paolo

It is coLinux 2.6.22.18-co-0.7.3

You need all files from Paolo, because he has changed some in Linux 
kernel, Windows-Kernel driver and in the daemons.

Here is a screen shot:

It's nice to see. It's simple and runs.
Very good works the copy and paste via mouse.

Missing only some keys: ALT-F1, ALT-F2, ALT-F3,... and Cursor-Right, 
Cursor-Left don't work to switch to other virtual consoles. Only tty1 is 
usable. Key "Print screen" is blocked for Windows?

Thanks Paolo. :-)

ALT-F1, ALT-F2, ALT-F3, ... ALT-Cursor-Right, ALT-Cursor-Left works. I 
can change the consoles. I don't know, what it was. Perhaps a side 
effect from trying to print with ALT-Print-Screen. Sorry for false alert.
