cio release v1.0

2026-04-03T05:53:00Z

commit 1e98f8a44d2dda525d94f8945d2344d7f744ae54 parent 17fc6b5c307623fb94a2b5179e5732119a08704f Author: Andrew Kloet Date: Fri, 3 Apr 2026 01:53:00 -0400 cio release v1.0 This marks the release of cio v1.0, forked from irc.c by Quentin Carbonneaux. Notable changes: - Security: Made TLS default and now verify the server hostname. - Authentication: Add support for SASL Plain/External. - scmd(): * Less rigid argument parser into a generic argc/argv. * Use a switch instead of chaining if-elses. * Handle a handful of previous unhandled commands (yo dawg, i herd you like hands). - Le Correctness: * Avoid unsafe string manipulation functions. * Now comes with a standard manual page. * Adhere closer RFC 2812: case sensitivity, nick collisions, server-sent JOIN/PART, +more... * When possible, parse errno into a string and prints.

Handle terminal resizes.

commit c5b6ac6afa188bd107bdbfb96500182447368b05 parent 646d0a762d1536fca7c19518d1e30a269b57cba5 Author: Quentin Carbonneaux Date: Sun, 11 Mar 2012 22:03:49 +0100 Handle terminal resizes. The KEY_RESIZE feature of ncurses is not used since it is not possible to detect if a KEY_RESIZE was queued by selecting on stdin. Hence, tinit now installs a SIGWINCH handler which will set the winchg variable to 1. I rely on the fact that select will be interrupted by the signal which pops after a terminal resize to be able to redraw the screen instantaneously. tresize does all the job of resizing the three used curses windows.

Pushm was no used in the current code, I inlined it in pushf to save lines and factor logic. I removed the call for tredraw to avoid blinking and only redrawn the last line. Some minor changes were done: * NOTICE, and motd are now handled by the scmd function. * Tredraw was slightly modified to make use of the last line of scr.mw. * The sz element of channels was moved from int to size_t.
