Wed, Jun 29, 2011

• src/dsepr/dsepr.c: Fixed a few problems with record mode switching and reinitialization of capture. Added feature to toggle averaging mode during monitor mode of chanmon, using "A" key. Added interpolate option, on by default, using "I" key to toggle. Fixed some display layout issues. Fixed averaging mode's display not to fall back on overlay mode so quickly (X11 version of mgiosc() can handle much larger divisors). Added feature to extend run length during chanmon record mode, using "E" or "X" key, and a running time display showing recording time remaining.
• src/lib/xwindow.c: Added support for line mode in mgiosc() function, so chanmon can plot sweeps with interpolation. Added code to flush queue and poll for events after calling XBell() function, in attempt to reduce timing issues with GNOME's visual bell feature.

• src/lib/xwindow.c: Changed debugging code for events to print at a lower debug level (8 instead of 9) so events don't get buried in other level 9 debugging output. Added extra debugging code for button press and release events.

Thu, Jun 9, 2011

• src/dsepr/dsepr.c: Fixed chanmon to process new key codes even when it's not ready for the next display update, rather than dropping key strokes.

Wed, Jun 8, 2011
