Keep track of the amount of items (not a total buffer size), allocate an array of
new items. For now change BUFSIZ bytes to 256 * sizeof(struct item)).
according to the getline(3) documentation, the calling code needs to
free the buffer even if getline fails.
dmenu currently doesn't do that which results in a small leak in case of
failure (e.g when piped /dev/null)
$ ./dmenu < /dev/null
==8201==ERROR: LeakSanitizer: detected memory leaks
Direct leak of 120 byte(s) in 1 object(s) allocated from:
#0 0x7f6bf5785ef7 in malloc
#1 0x7f6bf538ec84 in __getdelim
#2 0x405d0c in readstdin dmenu.c:557
moving `line = NULL` inside the loop body wasn't strictly necessary, but
IMO it makes it more apparent that `line` is getting cleared to NULL
after each successful iteration.
* Increase the length of composed strings to the same limit as st (32 to 64 bytes).
* Initialize ksym to NoSymbol to be safe: currently this is not an issue though.
* Add comments to clarify the return values of XmbLookupString a bit.
we already need to know the string length since `cursor` needs to be
adjusted.
so just calculate the length beforehand and use `memcpy` to copy exactly
as much as needed (as opposed to `strncpy` which always writes `n`
bytes).
currently readstdin():
- fgets() into a local buffer,
- strchr() the buffer to eleminate the newline
- stdups() the buffer into items
a simpler way is to just use getline(3), which will do the allocation
for us; eliminating the need for stdup()-ing.
additionally getline returns back the amount of bytes read, which
eliminates the need for strchr()-ing to find the newline.
