3 Features that should be explored.
4
5 - Repository status view.
6
7 - Better text-input support. From setsyx(3):
8
9 The setsyx routine sets the virtual screen cursor to y, x. If y and x
10 are both -1, then leaveok is set. The two routines getsyx and setsyx
11 are designed to be used by a library routine, which manipulates
12 curses windows but does not want to change the current position of the
13 program cursor. The library routine would call getsyx at the
14 beginning, do its manipulation of its own windows, do a wnoutrefresh on
15 its windows, call setsyx, and then call doupdate.
16
17 - When the user wants to "view" a commit, you could show from which branch
18 heads and from which tags the commit is reachable, and perhaps which tag is
19 the latest among the ones reachable from that commit, as part of the commit
20 detail information you display on the lower pane (log/diff view).
21
22 - Use autoconf to check for iconv in libc and how it is declared (the
23 2nd argument is 'const' on FreeBSD / Mac OS X). Maybe also check for
24 the AsciiDoc and XmlTo document tools.
