2021-10-13GTK: prevent crashes when pressing keys very quicklyRobin Haberkorn1-1/+2
* teco_interface_key_pressed_cb() could be called multiple times __before__ the idle timer (teco_interface_pop_key_idle_cb()) fires. The recursion check would consequently not work and we started the idle timer multiple times. This would eventually crash. * We now process the first queued key immediately. The alternative would be to store the idle watcher id. * The idle watcher's priority has been increased. Since redrawing is guaranteed to take place at G_PRIORITY_HIGH_IDLE, it is sufficient to process keys at G_PRIORITY_DEFAULT_IDLE. * Should also reduce latency slightly. * fixes up 71bf522231d2998f1fb183f343c2b1f9dbcd3b15
2021-10-13build Lexilla with BASE_FLAGS='' - fixes Mac OS buildsRobin Haberkorn1-0/+6
* The default build system includes -arch arm64 -arch x86_64 (builds for both platforms). These flags are apparently not supported by the SDK on the build server.

2021-10-11fixed crashes when the Q-Reg stack is non-empty at exitRobin Haberkorn4-3/+7
* Test case: sciteco -e '[a' [aEX$$ in interactive mode would also crash. * No longer use a destructor - it was executed after the Q-Reg view was destroyed. * Instead, we now explicitly call teco_qreg_stack_clear() in main(). * Added a regression test case.
2021-10-11Gtk+ 3 UI: Don't use deprecated functions and make sure that the UI is ↵Robin Haberkorn1-37/+38
updated regularily when holding down a key * gdk_window_freeze_toplevel_updates_libgtk_only() is apparently no longer necessary with Scintilla 5. * When holding down a key constantly, it was not uncommon that the display would not be updated until it is released. This is now worked around by using a low priority idle timer for emptying the teco_interface.event_queue. This ensures that Gtk can call other watchers after every keypress.
2021-10-11optimized caret scrolling: this is a costly operation and is now done only ↵Robin Haberkorn9-35/+54
once per keypress * Esp. costly since Scintilla 5. * We now avoid any Scintilla message that automatically scrolls the caret (makes the caret visible) and instead call SCI_SCROLLCARET only once after every keypress in the interface implementation. * From nowon, use * SCI_SETEMPTYSELECTION instead of SCI_GOTOPOS * SCI_SETEMPTYSELECTION(SCI_POSITIONFROMLINE(...)) instead of SCI_GOTOLINE * SCI_SETSELECTIONSTART and SCI_SETSELECTIONEND instead of SCI_SETSEL * With these optimizations we are significantly faster than before the Scintilla upgrade (6e67f5a682ff46d69888fec61b94bf45cec46721). It is now even safe to execute the Gtk test suite during CI.
2021-10-11optimized character representation settingRobin Haberkorn5-33/+15
* Esp. with the new Scintilla version, the representation setting as part of every SCI_SETDOCPOINTER has turned out to be a performance bottleneck. * The new Scintilla has a custom tweak/patch that disables any automatic representation setting in Scintilla itself. It is now sufficient to initialize the SciTECO-style representations only once in the lifetime of any view.
2021-10-11upgraded to Scintilla 5.1.3 and Scinterm 3.1Robin Haberkorn96-235/+285
* Previous Scintilla version was 3.6.4 and Scinterm was 1.7 (with lots of custom patches). All of the patches are now either irrelevant or have been merged upstream. * Since Scintilla 5 requires C++17, this increases the minimum GCC version at least to 5.0. We may actually require even newer versions. * I could not upgrade the scintilla-mirror (which was imported from Mercurial), so the old sciteco-dev branch was renamed to sciteco-dev-pre-v2.0.0, master was deleted and I reimported the entire Scintilla repo using git-remote-hg. This means that scintilla-mirror now contains two entirely separate trees. But it is still possible to clone old SciTECO repos. * The strategy/workflow of maintaining hotfix branches on scintilla-mirror has been changed. Instead of having one sciteco-dev branch that is rebased onto new Scintilla upstream releases and tagging SciTECO releases in scintilla-mirror (to keep the commits referenced), we now create a branch for every Scintilla version we are based on (eg. sciteco-rel-5-1-3). This branch is never rebased or deleted. Therefore, we are guaranteed to be able to clone arbitrary SciTECO repo commits - not only releases. Releases no longer have to be tagged in scintilla-mirror. On the downside, fixup commits may accumulate in these new branches. They can only be squashed once a new branch for a new Scintilla release is created (e.g. by cherry-picking followed by rebase). * Scinterm does no longer have to reside in the Scintilla subdirectory, so we added it as a regular submodule. There are no more recursive submodules. The Scinterm build system has not been improved at all, but we use a trick based on VPATH to build Scinterm in scintilla/bin/. * Scinterm is now in Git and we reference the upstream repo for the time being. We might mirror it and apply the same branching workflow as with Scintilla if necessary. The scinterm-mirror repository still exists but has not been touched. We will also have to rewrite its master branch as it was a non-reproducible Mercurial import. * Scinterm now also comes with patches for Scintilla which we simply applied on our sciteco-rel-5-1-3 branch. * Scintilla 5 outsourced its lexers into the Lexilla project. We added it as yet another submodule. * All submodules have been moved into contrib/. * The Scintilla API for setting lexers has consequently changed. We now have to call SCI_SETILEXER(0, CreateLexer(name)). As I did not want to introduce a separate command for setting lexers, <ES> has been extended to allow setting lexers by name with the SCI_SETILEXER message which effectively replaces SCI_SETLEXERLANGUAGE. * The lexer macros (SCLEX_...) no longer serve any purpose - they weren't used in the SciTECO standard library anyway - and have consequently been removed from symbols-scilexer.c. The style macros from SciLexer.h (SCE_...) are theoretically still useful - even though they are not used by our current color schemes - and have therefore been retained. They can be specified as wParam in <ES>. * <ES> no longer allows symbolic constants for lParam. This never made any sense since all supported symbols were always wParam. * Scinterm supports new native cursor modes. They are not used for the time being and the previous CARETSTYLE_BLOCK_AFTER caret style is configured by default. It makes no sense to enable native cursor modes now since the command line should have a native cursor but is not yet a Scintilla view. * The Scintilla upgrade performed much worse than before, so some optimizations will be necessary.

2021-10-08Gtk: fixed message bar's background colorRobin Haberkorn1-7/+7
* Was only broken on Gtk+ 3.24 for Windows with the builtin theme engine. * The warning level was also not themed correctly because of a typo.
2021-10-08fixed hiding savepoint files on Win32Robin Haberkorn1-1/+2
* This was an ancient bug apparently broken since d503c3b07c2157658f699294c44ad5be244727a5 (year 2014) and was therefore broken even in v0.6.4.
2021-10-08PDCurses support: automatically detect PDC_WIDERobin Haberkorn1-1/+6
* PDC_WIDE must be defined before including curses.h if the library is also built against PDC_WIDE. * Fixes building against PDCursesMod during Nightly Builds, ie. fixes the current Win32 curses builds. * The same problem exists for PDC_RGB. It cannot currently be autodetected, so you must currently manually include PDCURSES_CFLAGS="-DPDC_RGB" if you built your PDCurses with PDC_RGB. The same will be true for PDC_NCMOUSE once we support mouses. You best leave these settings in their defaults (disabled) if you have control over the PDCurses build.
2021-10-08CI: enabled the win32-curses test caseRobin Haberkorn1-48/+48
* The testsuite now works on my Windows 2008 Server installation, so hopefully it will also work on the build servers.

2021-10-08revised icon loading on Windows and packaging againRobin Haberkorn5-45/+76
* We don't need the PNG icons on Windows as the compiled-in ICO should suffice * Ship the dependencies of the SVG pixbuf loader. * The PNG pixbuf loader is still distributed, as we at least need it for loading the icon theme. * Install a loaders.cache - without it, the pixbuf loaders won't be found. This file can be generated by gdk-pixbuf-query-loaders but apparently has to be modified by hand. * Regenerate the icon cache using gtk-update-icon-cache. * Icon themes are found now. Unfortunately, we have to distribute the entire Adwaita icon theme as distributing only the scalable (SVG) icons does not work for some strange reason (FIXME).
2021-06-08updated TODO: added some new Windows-specific tasksRobin Haberkorn1-6/+7
2021-06-08Gtk UI: fixed lookup of icons and fallback.css on WindowsRobin Haberkorn1-33/+39
* Since we don't have an absolute and known installation directory, we should look for these files in the same directory as sciteco.exe. * For the time being, we look for them in $SCITECOCONFIG which defaults to that directory. * Cannot be a final solution as you may tweak $SCITECOCONFIG to fit an Unix-like environment (eg. set SCITECOCONFIG=$HOME). In such configurations it may also not be suitable to always look in the directory of sciteco.exe since that may be some /bin dir. Considering that GTK+ forces us to preserve some kind of UNIX-like directory hierarchy even for portable builds, we should perhaps install the icons into the hicolor icon theme. This would also simplify Debian packaging.
2021-06-08improved PDCurses detectionRobin Haberkorn6-72/+43
* follow the current terminology: * PDCurses/Win32a is now called PDCursesMod and includes all other PDCurses ports as well. The Win32 GUI port is now called PDCurses/WinGUI. * PDCurses/Win32 is now called PDCurses/WinCon. * Since PDCursesMod supports WinCon as well, we use the PDCURSES_MOD macro only to detect PDCursesMod API extensions. GUIs (detached from system console) might be available both in classic PDCurses as well as in PDCursesMod. Only PDCursesMod allows detection of the port used *at runtime* using PDC_get_version(). We therefore introduced a --with-interface=pdcurses-gui that must be given whenever compiling for any kind of GUI port (including SDL on "classic" PDCurses). * The PDCURSES macro is used to detect all PDCurses (whether classic or PDCursesMod) API extensions. * __PDCURSES__ is used to detect PDCurses whenever API extensions are not required. * Assume that A_UNDERLINE now works even on WinCon.
2021-06-08all SciTECO scripts used during the build process now always write files ↵Robin Haberkorn5-18/+18
with Unix linebreaks * when hosted on Windows, the default is DOS linebreaks * Unix linebreaks are in many cases more consistent as all other sources use Unix linebreaks * woman pages with Unix linebreaks are slightly faster to load due to EOL conversion * especially Groff input must not contain CR as it will otherwise log lots of warnings (affects htbl.tes and tedoc.tes).
2021-06-08added nightly builds for GTK+ 3 on Win32 (currently broken)Robin Haberkorn2-15/+99
* turns out that we need icon themes and pixbuf loaders as well * GTK assumes an UNIX like hierarchy, so we package sciteco.exe and all DLLs into a bin/ subdir. * The SciTECO icons probably shouldn't be in bin/. If we installed them into the hicolor icon theme, GTK might pick them up automatically. This would work under Windows and UNIX. * The GTK builds are still broken. I do really need a real system (MSYS installation) to play around.
2021-06-08get rid of the GObject Builder (GOB2): converted teco-gtk-info-popup.gob and ↵Robin Haberkorn16-783/+817
teco-gtk-label.gob to plain C * Using modern GObject idioms and macros greatly reduces the necessary boilerplate code. * The plain C versions of our GObject classes are now "final" (cannot be derived) This means we can hide the instance structures from the headers and avoid using explicit private fields. * Avoids some deprecation warnings when building the Gtk UI. * GOB2 is apparently no longer maintained, so this seems like a good idea in the long run. * The most important reason however is that there is no precompiled GOB2 for Windows which prevents compilation on native Windows hosts, eg. during nightly builds. This is even more important as Gtk+3 is distributed on Windows practically exclusively via MSYS. (ArchLinux contains MinGW gtk3 packages as well, so cross-compiling from ArchLinux would have been an alternative.)
2021-06-08added nightly builds for Windows 32-bit PDCursesRobin Haberkorn1-0/+73
* These builds generally work, but function keys appear to be broken. This does not happen when building with the latest PDCursesMod on my machine. * <EC> appears to be broken. * We try to link everything statically since MSYS provides actually working static libglib builds. Unfortunately, their gspawn helper executables are still linked normally, so we have to pull in most DLLs anyway. Considering that GTK cannot be linked statically, we should perhaps simply link the Curses builds dynamically as well.

2021-06-08added test suite cases for memory limiting and command executionRobin Haberkorn3-3/+17
* Turned out to be useful in debugging the "Memory limiting during spawning" test case on Windows. * Use UNIX shell emulation (0,128ED) in all test cases. Should be necessary in order to run the testsuite on Windows, but it is currently broken anyway. * avoid <EG> when preprocessing files - use GNU Make's $(shell) instead * Fixes builds on MinGW where there are still problems with <EC> and <EG> at least in the virtual build environment. * Results in a another automake warning about non-POSIX Make constructs. This is not critical since we depend on GNU Make anyway.
2021-06-08Windows: normalize $COMSPECRobin Haberkorn4-7/+25
* Environment variables are case insensitive on Windows while SciTECO variables are case sensitive. We must therefore make sure that we first unset any $COMSPEC or $ComSpec from the environment before resetting it, thereby fixing its case. * Fixes command execution via <EC> on systems where the variable was not called $ComSpec.
2021-06-08added a CI job for Windows 32-bit (currently disabled)Robin Haberkorn1-0/+49
* The testsuite still fails and I cannot fix it without a Windows system or VM at hand. * Problems are probably related to <EC> (spawning). * Simply disabling the test suite would not make much sense as we already try building using nightly.yml.
2021-06-05teco_memory_check() now checks for addition overflows and negative searches ↵Robin Haberkorn2-1/+18
(<S>) for multiplication overflows * Since the numbers come from "outside" (SciTECO scripts) this is easily possible, resulting either in missed checks or even memory corruption. * In particular, this fixes the "Searching with large counts" test case on 32-bit builds. Perhaps at least one CI build should be 32-bit?

2021-06-05use memory polling (--disable-malloc-replacement) on Mac OS XRobin Haberkorn3-16/+21
* I could not get malloc replacement via dlmalloc to work. This does not work like on Linux by overwriting weak malloc() functions. It should theoretically be possible to overwrite the default malloc zone but I could not properly debug this since I can only build for Mac OS via CI. * memory polling seems to work though - test suite runs through and it includes memory limiting test cases.
2021-06-04guard against too low arguments to <S> by checking whether the memory limit ↵Robin Haberkorn6-15/+29
would be exceeded * Checking whether the allocation succeeded may not prevent exceeding the memory limit excessively. * Even if the memory limit is not exceeded, the allocation can fail theoretically and the program would terminate abnormally. This however is true for all allocations in SciTECO (via glib). * teco_memory_check() therefore now supports checking whether an allocation would exceed the memory limit which will be useful before very large or variable allocations in addition to the regular checking in teco_machine_main_step(). * As a sideeffect, this fixes the "Searching with large counts" test case on Mac OS where too large allocations were not detected as expected (apparently Mac OS happily gives out ridiculously large chunks of memory). Now, all platforms are guaranteed to have the same behaviour.

file systems * There is a "Scintilla.h" as well. * should fix macOS and builds on native Windows hosts * It wasn't practical to refer to the Scintilla includes using paths since the Scintilla location is configurable (--with-scintilla). So we'd have to write something like #include <include/Scintilla.h>. For Scinterm we cannot avoid collisions neither as its path is also configurable (--with-scinterm). Effectively, we must prevent name clashes across SciTECO and all of Scintilla and Scinterm.

* Added a Freedesktop file - only as part of the debian package yet. `make install` won't install a Desktop file since it would have to be generated. * Just like when installing manually, you can have a Curses and Gtk installation side by side using the same .teco_ini. * Common data between the Curses UI (sciteco-curses) and Gtk UI are in a new architecture-independant package sciteco-common. * The Gtk+ binaries are prefixed with `g` (gsciteco, gtedoc.tes, ggrosciteco.tes). * Debian source and binary packages can be built using `./distribute.mk debian` as usual. It should also be possible to push everything to the PPA for the next release, although that is not yet tested.
