This patch adds the handling of 'CHARACTER' events as emitted by the input-filter's character generator (<chargen>). To avoid interpreting press/release events twice (at the input filter and by the terminal's built-in scancode tracker), the terminal's scancode tracker can be explicitly disabled via <config> <keyboard layout="none"/> </config>. In the future, the terminal's built-in scancode tracker will be removed. The use of the terminal with the input filter is illustrated by the 'terminal_echo.run' script. Issue #2264
This is the example operating system based on the Genode OS framework: :_Init_: is the first real process in the system. The provided implementation uses a very simple XML parser to read its configuration files. :_Drivers_: The example OS has basic drivers for frame buffer, mouse and keyboard input, the PCI bus, the real-time clock, and system-specific timers. :_Server_: The only server in the example OS is Nitpicker, a minimal-complexity GUI server. :_Test_: are also part of the example OS. You may have a look at the fork bomb as a simple system stress test. :_Ldso_: is the dynamic linker used for loading executables that are linked against shared libraries. :_Lib_: contains libraries used by the components of the OS repository, for example, the alarm framework.
