Subject: PATCH 1/2: Make gotoxy & siblings use unsigned variables
Date: Sat, 10 Jan 2004 07:33:05 +1300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1073672901.2069.15.camel@laptop-linux> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 2859 bytes --]
This patch makes console X and Y coordinates unsigned, rather than
signed. Issues with wide (> 128 char?) consoles, seen when developing
Software Suspend's 'nice display' are thus fixed. A brief examination of
related code showed that this use of signed variables was the exception
rather than the rule.
Regards,
Nigel
